    Honorable Judge Schmidt: We are confused and baffled by Isaac Oberlander’s demands and ultimatums. Firstly, let us set the record straight: Yoely Brach (“Yoely”) is the defendant and should not dictate the terms of any arbitration proceedings. The fact remains that Mr. Jacob Guttman, the owner of Court Street Office Supplies, Inc. (“Company”), employed Yoely – right out of Kollel with no formal or general education – out of kindheartedness and compassion to his son-in-law. As Yoely mistook his father-in-law’s unselfishness for weakness, he engaged in erratic behavior, breached his fiduciary duties to the Company, and embezzled the Company by hundreds of thousands of dollars.…

    Ms. Spano Case Summary

    • 6 Pages

    To determine if Ms. Spano was operating her vehicle while intoxicated the court will apply a four- factored test and the relevant Indiana code to the facts. After applying the factors, the court will probably weigh in favor of Ms. Spano operating the car. Ind. Code 9-30-5-3 states, “… a person who operates a vehicle while intoxicated…”. Ind. Code 9-13-2-118 defines operator as “driver or is in actual physical control of a motor vehicle upon a highway...” The Hiegel test helps determine operation: “(1) whether or not the person in the vehicle was asleep or awake; (2) whether or not the motor was running; (3) the location of the vehicles and all the circumstances bearing on how the vehicle arrived at that location; and (4) the intent of the person behind the wheel” Hiegel v.

    Each court case detailed by Krakauer, in my opinion, can be seen as intergroup conflict in which the larger community in-group such as government officials such as Kirsten Pabst, and Grizzly fans try to legitimize their claims against the “out group” of sexual assault victims and their victim advocates in order to threaten the out group’s validity and distinctiveness (Tajfel & Turner 1985). One instance where this group-divide is present both before and after the proceedings is in the case of Kelsey Belnap. After agreeing to hang out with her friend Betsey Fremont, Belnap is immediately put in an awkward situation where she is at a party of people she doesn’t know, and doesn’t feel comfortable with. Even though she was apprehensive, Belnap…

    What emotional intelligence qualities allowed Amy Cuddy to be successful after the accident? Of course having her IQ decreased as a consequence of a car accident did not make Amy Cuddy’s life any easier. Sometimes, if not always, life does not work the way we want; the answer a person with a very high IQ might have then is just not the right one to solve the problem and to make things work again as planned. When all that happens, the successful goal one meant to achieve, if everything occurred as planned, will just not be achieved.…

    In 1997, the Texas legislature enacted a law requiring all public universities in Texas to admit all high school seniors who ranked in the top ten percent of their high school’s graduating class. The University of Texas at Austin, after finding disparities between the racial and ethnic makeup of the university's undergraduate population and the state's population, decided to modify its race-neutral admissions policy. The new policy continued to admit all in-state students who graduated in the top ten percent of their high school classes, however, for the remainder of the in-state freshman class the university would consider race as a factor for admissions into the university. The plaintiff, Abigail Fisher, a white female, applied for undergraduate admission to the University of Texas in 2008.…
