Decent Essays
Hi Chyanne,

I would re-post your unit 8 DB response today so you can get full credit because you posted your post on 6-5.

I do agree with you concerning Perry. I agree that he has done nothing wrong because he never changed the way he is handling cases or preparing them even with his original supervising attorney being out of the office. I would say that Perry could later on possible commit a ethical violation if he does something wrong and thew current supervising attorney does not catch it because he is unfamiliar with bankruptcy laws. I feel his supervisor could be breaking Rule 1.1 because Rule 1.1.

    The actuality of the case of State v.

    In Youngstown Sheet & Tube Co. v. Sawyer which discussed the issue of inherent presidential power; the Supreme Court ruled that the President did not have the inherent authority to seize private property without authority given from Congress. In Justice Black’s opinion, he makes it clear that even if the president had the power to take over the steel mill he needs to have a congressional statute and it can not be used to settle labor disputes even if they were to disrupt the economy as the president argued. He also says that the seizure cannot be justified due to the president being Commander in Chief by saying that “we cannot with faithfulness to our constitutional system hold that the Commander in Chief of the Armed Forces has the ultimate power as such to take possession of private property in order to keep labor disputes from stopping production. This is a job for the Nation's lawmakers, not for its military authorities.” He even goes a step further in saying that the Executive’s job to make sure that laws are faithfully executed…

    1520 Sedgwick Case Summary

    • 1070 Words
    • 4 Pages

    The legal process of gentrification is potentially one of the more easily argued cases, especially in a country that prides itself on its free market. Using 1520 Sedgwick as an example as well I will compare how the ideals of a free market economy would effect it with the realities of the situation. First of all, if the US was a true free market economy 1520 Sedgwick would never have been enrolled in the Mitchell-Lama program because such a system wouldn’t exist unless the government owned the property, which also would be contrary to a free market system. Following the fact that these programs do exist and the government does play a role in the economy, including real estate, we have to conclude that the government has to assume at least some sense of responsibility for the citizens enrolled in the Mitchell-Lama program. However, this does not just include the residents of 1520 Sedgwick, but the owners as well, for the government entered into an agreement with them as well.…

    Introduction The Bill of Rights was passed in 1791. It is composed of the first 10 amendments proposed to the Constitution and encompasses a wide range of protections for American citizens (Lab et al., p. 41). One such protection comes from the fourth amendment which states, the right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the person or things to be seized (Lab et at., p. 42).…

    The interpretation of the Second Amendment to the Constitution of the United States of America has been a topic of controversy, ever since its acceptance over two-hundred years ago. One of the main issues with the amendment is, since its acceptance in 1791, many of the issues are now considered irrelevant and insignificant to our society today. One of the most well known Supreme Court cases is the infamous District of Columbia v. Heller case. It was the very first Supreme Court case to decide whether the Second Amendment protects an individual right to keep and bear arms for self-defense. The District of Columbia v. Heller, plays a crucial and decisive role in our constitutional rights to bear arms for self defence.…
