    Background The case started back on May 20, 2005, in which a man by the name of Jerry Jackson had called the police after discovering what looked like a mannequin floating in the Grand Marais Canal in Jennings, Louisiana.

Burnette, 1981).…

    Abramski v the United States is a case that questioned the legality of a lawful gun-purchaser buying a gun for another lawful gun-owner who resides in a different state and inaccurately listing that they are the actual buyer. Due to the Supremacy clause (86), it was up to the Supreme Court to make the final decision by looking further into the Gun Control Act of 1968, which was established to try and stop felons from obtaining a gun, and determining exactly what it prohibits. In 2009, Bruce Abramski bought a gun for his uncle, Angel Alvarez, because after his years of service as a police officer, he was eligible for a discount at a local Virginia gun store. Before he purchased the weapon, three federally-licensed gun dealers told Abramski to…
