Does it make sense for people to follow laws that were established more than a hundred years ago? The Texas Constitution of 1876, which is currently in use (Maxwell et al. 60), states in Article 4, section 23 that “the comptroller of public accounts, commissioner of the General Land Office, attorney general, and any statutory state officer who is elected statewide to reside at the state capital during their terms of office” (). In 2015 there was an amendment up for voting, Senate Joint…

Nuisance can be separated into private, public and statutory nuisance. Private nuisance is “ the unreasonable use of man of his land to the detriment of his neighbour (Miller v. Jackson [1977] QB 966 (CA); 3 All ER 338) and can only be claimed by the individual affected that has an interest in the land . The potential defendants can be the creators of the nuisance, regardless of whether they are also the occupiers of the property . However, if the occupier or landlord are not the creators…

limits of appellant, the city of Munroe Falls. The city sought to enforce five local ordinances limiting drilling within its borders after an energy company had already obtained the necessary state permits.

Megans Law is one I believe every parent would on first mention likely support. But for me, a parent of two small children, I have to admit this law oversteps in my opinion. Nobody wants to prevent crimes against children more than I do but if a person commits a crime in this country and “pays their debt to society” and is released from prison they cannot continue to be held in virtual custody indefinitely. This detailed public documentation seems to me to be unusual punishment after the…

These courts do not hold trials since they only have appellate jurisdiction. They will review the lower court’s ruling and case documents for errors in the application of the law. All decisions based on these submissions are final and binding. Since the Supreme Court hears few cases per year, the rulings of the circuit courts of appeals can be quite powerful and affect not only the lower federal courts but also the large population…

able to give orders and dismantle laws that are deemed unconstitutional. The belief that courts have the function as policy makers is predominantly seen within the history of the Supreme Court.

Making the application of law practicable ASIC faced technical problems that are undermining its ability to be an effective regulator. Inconsistencies in ASIC’s regulatory laws is one of the problem. ASIC can choose not to exercise its discretion power, even when the prerequisites for the statutory schemes to operate has been met. There appear to be a high threshold for the law to operate.
