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. State, N.E.d 265 (Ind. Ct.…
time of the incident, therefore the administrative subpoena to Verizon landline would not have turned up Gabe’s home records; an additional subpoena would have been required to obtain this information. The conclusion of the Massachusetts State Police report states “A review of phone records does not support WILLOUGHBY’S claim that a phone call occurred between GABE and MARY GRASING on October 18, 2011 at approximately 4:00 P.M.” Without seeing the additional records, if any, Mason was in possession of, it is unclear how this conclusion could be drawn. What analysis of Mary Grasing’s home records does show is that Marshard’s landline and Gabe’s landline were in contact with the Mary Grasing between October 17, 2011 and October 19, 2011, this is consistent with Willoughby and BenDavid’s version of the facts. These records should have…

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.…
The medical ethics case on Dr. Anna Pou questions the ethics itself in several forms and different issues. The issue is that the medical departments, nationally or locally, should always provide care for patients no matter the type of emergency or disaster. It doesn’t matter the amount of laws and regulations they pass or provide to help medical institutions work easily and efficiently, which should help provide patients with medical care they rightfully deserve and need. In order to be able to successfully allow such difficult decisions to be made and acted upon such circumstances, such as the one occurred in Medical Memorial Hospital in New Orleans, they need to create clear and conscious laws that is workable and lawfully and medically ethical that the head and the staff of the medical institute can follow easily to avoid such situation in the future. As Dr. Pou has been trying to pass laws to help…
Serial is a 12 episode podcast based around the murder of Hae Min Lee and her alleged killer Adnan Syed who was convicted for it. In this shocking podcast there was a view into the prosecution’s tactics and actions that shocked many listeners; even the narrator of the podcast itself, Sarah Koenig. The prosecution relied primarily on one witness for a majority of their case, due to an absence of evidence. As well, they also used Adnan’s relationships against him. Overall the prosecution’s actions and tactics used to convict Adnan Syed are unethical and unjust and they reflect poorly on the criminal justice system.…

The program evolved into the Education of the Handicapped Act (EHA) of 1970.
