    Rebecca Smith of POWCO, Inc. was presented with a difficult decision regarding the future of herself and many others involved with the company. Ms. Smith supported her recommendation of Thomas Pearson for an international position with many examples of the contributions he made at POWCO, Inc. although her counterpart, Nigel Graham, was skeptical of her decision.

Smith seemed overwhelmed with the decision that she was faced with and seemed as if…

    In 1998, Hugh Caperton filed a lawsuit against A.T. Massey Coal Co., Inc and was found liable for $50 million in damages in a state trial court in West Virginia. Prior to the hearing, Caperton motioned for the presiding justice in the case, Brent Benjamin, to recuse himself, seeing as though Massey’s C.E.O. had donated nearly $3 million dollars to Benjamin’s campaign. In 2009, the United States Supreme Court ruled that Benjamin’s failure to recuse himself, seeing as he had a personal connection to one of the parties in the case, was a direct violation of the Due Process Clause stated in the fourth teeth amendment (CAPERTON v. A.T. MASSEY COAL CO., INC.). The Caperton v. Massey case proposed the question, “how much power and impact does election campaigning have on judicial bias. Should state judges be appointed over elected?”…

    Hazelwood v. Kuhlmeier I, Jhae’da Moss write this to support the majority opinion on the case of Hazelwood v Kulmeier. I chose this decision because this was done with good intentions for the kids. What he did was right, but the way he handled it was wrong. Since the articles were going to become a distraction to the students and offended several students, I believe that the school had the right to eliminate those offensive pages.

The man accused of the murders, Sherwood Brown, caused the police to chase him and ending up making himself seem even more guilty (Sherwood, 1997). He was convicted of the murders and sentenced to two life sentences and the death penalty.

    From 1801 to 1835, the Marshall Court consisted of six to seven Associate Supreme Court Justices and Chief Justice John Marshall. He was part of the “Midnight Judges” appointed by John Adams on the last day of his presidency, in an attempt for the Federalists to dominate the judicial branch. Marshall was one of the last remaining Federalists involved with the government and his influence on certain cases lasted much longer than the Federalist Party itself. The Marshall Court increased the power of the federal government in terms of the meaning of a contract, the power of the federal government versus the power of the state government, and the regulation of interstate commerce. This became apparent in the Supreme Court’s rulings on Dartmouth…
