Case Study: The Mad-About Milk Claim Against California

Decent Essays
The Mad-About-Milk Claim against California is not valid due to the fact that each state has the the right to pass their, that is, laws specific to that state approved by the state citizen. To do business in California, the nonprofit organization must follow the California laws as they are written. As long as the law pertains to everyone, it is not a violation of the constitution. In this case, we are dealing with a state law, not federal law and the difference between the two is that federal law deals with orders from the President, legislation passed by Congress and decisions that are involved in the Federal Courts that basically interprets the Constitution; whereas the state law, each separate state is governed by their own law.

    Usually we hear of stories where physicians get sued because they fail to abide by a patient’s wishes, however, the article “All-Time Craziest Frivolous Lawsuits”, (Krane 2014), discusses how a physician was sued for abiding to a patient’s wishes. The article provides insight into how some malpractice lawsuits impact physicians who try to provide patients with standard of care, only to have care refused by them and then later have legal action taken against them for complying with their wishes. The author best explains how physicians are affected by malpractice lawsuits in stating, “The assault on their reputations and the emotional upheaval they face can be traumatic even when the lawsuit is obviously fraudulent” (Krane, 2014, p. 1). This particular article discusses the story of a man who cut his hand off because he “saw the number ‘666’ written on it and stated that he heard voices which told him to cut it off. When the on-call surgeon was called in for a consult, the patient stated that if the surgeon reattached his arm, “he would cut it off again” (Krane, 2014, p. 1).…

    Lemon Vs Kurtzman

    • 4 Pages

    Since the birth of our nation, we have been provided with amendments set in place to protect our freedoms. This set of amendments is known as the bill of rights, and they serve as a guideline for laws so we can determine if they are just or unjust. Since most of the constitution and bill of rights is up to interpretation, there end up being quite a few discrepancies over what the text of these documents actually mean. Because of this we have a Supreme Court that is there to play referee and make the decision over which side is right. In the case of Lemon v. Kurtzman, the plaintiff has claimed that the states of Pennsylvania and Rhode Island have been violating the first amendment’s establishment clause by giving public funds away to church-related…
