    The issue to be dealt with from the scenario presented is whether Craig has a right to claim the objects that have been found. The key principle for lost and found objects is the principle of priority of entitlement. Priority of entitlement starts with the "true owner who has the best claim; then the finder; the landowner; and the employees of the landowner." A claim to the ownership of lost or abandoned objects depends on where the object was found and the extent to which it was attached to the ground. The landowner may however, have a better claim to the item found over the finder and this depends (depending) on where the object was found and the extent to which the object was attached to the ground.…

When the process of enforcement and the discovery of evidence have been put into motion, the circumstance surrounding how law enforcement came into contact with the accused is one of the first things reviewed - much of the initial interaction is based on the enforcement of State laws, which cascades into protected rights when the enforcement effort starts, or elements of a crime have been discovered. Since the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that the Bill of Rights applies the Federal Government, and the Fourteenth Amendment’s Due Process Clause makes the Bill of Rights applicable…

    The PATRIOT Act was framed swiftly and passed within 45 days to serve as an anti-terrorism legislation in wake of the September 11, 2001 attacks, in the name of national security. The complex Act was subject to almost no Congressional deliberation or debate and was promulgated by the then President George Washington Bush on 26 October, 2001.

Furthermore, the Fourteenth Amendment guarantees procedural due process, the individual rights listed in the Bill of Rights, incorporated against the states, and substantive due process (Chapman & Yoshino, n.d.). In the case of In re Gault, Gault was confined to an Industrial School until his twenty-first birthday, and the Supreme Court determined the sentence was a violation of procedural due process afforded by the Fourteenth Amendment (Cornell Law School, n.d.).
