1999 Civil Suit Case Study

The definition of a lawsuit is a civil action brought in court in which a plaintiff demands another person, known as the defendant, pay this person equitable resolve (dictionary.com). In other words they want payment for being wronged in the past. If the case is found to be legitimate and proven justifiable, the defendant pays the plaintiff the awarded compensation. This brings us to the story, The Lawsuit, by Naguib Mahfouz. This tale is about a son being sued by his father’s widow demanding maintenance be paid to her some twenty years after the father’s death. Several of the individuals in this story serve very little purpose.

A 27year old African American man pled guilty and was convicted on five counts of common law burglary. He was sentenced to death in accordance with Alabama state law. The prosecution presented the eyewitness accounts of the events and the petitioner did not testify. The defendant did not testify on his behalf, nor did counsel present his case. The judge accepted the guilty plea without any confirmation from the defendant concerning his voluntariness of his guilty plea or its consequences.

A lawsuit was filed on March 21, 2016 by Fresno Police Sergeant Cervantes who is suing Fresno Police Department and three other detectives. He states workplace harassment and discrimination due to his Hispanic ethnicity. Further details state, “Sgt. Paul Cervantes accuses Sgt. Tim Tietjen and Detectives Brad Alcorn and Cary Phelps of smearing his reputation with false accusations and spreading rumors that he’s a dirty cop. Tietjen, Alcorn and Phelps are white.”(Lopez, para.2) Such accusations can lead to further tensions, costly legal battles, and government investigations. Sergeant Cervantes seeks unspecified damages, attorney fees for discrimination, retaliation, defamation and malicious prosecution. He also states he has been subjected to such discrimination and harassment since January 2008 to the present. Furthermore, it is not the first time Fresno Police Department has been sued for similar incidences. There is an ongoing problem in the department that needs to be resolve.

Who was the actual assassin of Martin Luther King? Over time various researchers have discovered a variety of potential associations or people to put the blame on. The main being the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), The United States Army, James Earl Ray, and several other miscellaneous groups. What I have learned from the Martin Luther King conspiracy video is James Earl Ray, the man convicted of the crime was not intelligent enough to pull off this assassination. Yes, he was at the Motel across the street where the gunshots came from, and his fingerprints were on the gun but, in my opinion it just doesn't add up. Attorney William Pepper who fought to prove the innocence of James really made valid arguments

James Earl Ray was a convicted a murderer who assassinated Martin Luther King Jr. He was sentenced to life imprisonment. He then died in prison after serving 29 years. There were some conspiracy theories, some believed that he had someone hired to shoot king. Ray suggested this theory while in prison.

Another Martin Luther conspiracy is that the government was somehow involved in Martin Luther King’s assassination. Pepper, a reporter believed that the government sent a secret task force to eliminate King at his hotel room.

Martin Luther King Jr. was not only a huge civil rights activist, but a person to look up to in such dire times. He gave people hope and spoke of the equality for all. Due to his popularity and worldwide recognition, his death was of course a huge topic to be discussed. On April 4, 1968, Martin Luther Jr. was shot outside his hotel room at the Lorraine Motel in Memphis, Tennessee. He was rushed to the hospital and later pronounced dead at 7:05 that evening. The announcement of his death immediately caused an uproar and later even violence to occur. Martin Luther King Jr’s death was no ordinary death, upon investigating the case, questions were being brought up. This lead to conspiracy theories to be made about the case of his murder.

When it comes to the assassination of the nobel peace prize winner and powerful civil rights leader, Martin luther king jr most people believe the case was closed after the police charged the man who supposedly committed the crime. With the supposed felon james earl ray put behind bars after pleading guilty to the murder the people were content, although most did not believe he worked alone. I am amongst the group of people who are curious if there is more to the murder, such as if the governmant was behind it.

ANNECDOTE. The majority of the High Court in Clark v Marcourt, awarded damages of approximately A$1.2 million to the appellant, as the respondent was found guilty of breaching various warranties of the deed to purchase various property from a fertility centre, putting the appellant at a significantly better financial position than she would have been in had the breach not occurred. Prima facie, Clark seems to suggest undermining the compensatory principle in contract. ## This essay will analyse the decision in Clark through the doctrinal legal research method, using “normative” research. The aim of this research method is to answer the question of “what is the law” via logical reasoning and analysis of appropriate legal rules, and whether it applies to a particular factual situation.

The federal statute that has an extensive impact on state facilities and programs is Section 1983 of the Civil Rights Act of 1871. These 1983 law suits can have an enormous impact on the day to day operation of the state and local prisons and jails. These 1983 suits are civil actions and not criminal actions. This means the prisoners can file a civil law suit in a federal court and challenge the conditions in the state and local prisons. These law suits that were filed by inmates claim that the prison official deprived the inmates of their constitutional rights. The inmates argue that they were deprived of adequate medical care, protection against excessive force by other inmates and the correctional officers and the inmates wanted access to

I believe that Lee Harvey Oswald played a big role in the assassination of John F. Kennedy. I feel like there was a person higher up telling Oswald what to do thought. I think that Oswald is responsible for part of the killing of JFK because the evidence collect on the rifle points to Oswald. According to 48 hours to live, Lee asked for a ride a day early to work because he needed curtain rods at his house but the guy who picked him up, said it did not look curtain rod but more like a rifle. He had $13.87 in his pocket as long with a transfer bus ticket. (48 hours to live) All the evidence that was collect on Oswald points to him killing President Kennedy. The evidence in the JFK Movie about the Coup D’E Tat Theory tells me that there is too

Plaintiff claims false arrest and malicious prosecution. Plaintiff states he was arrested for criminal possession of marijuana however no marijuana was recovered. PO Hernandez, PO Bonet, and PO Heredia were members of the anti-crime in PSA 6. Officers observed via Viper camera plaintiff and two other apprehended individuals smoking marijuana in the park behind a housing project. Officers approached plaintiff and two individuals and conducted a stop and frisk. Officers did not recover any contraband or marijuana was recovered. Plaintiff and the two individuals were transported to the precinct where a bag of marijuana was recovered during a search at the precinct. Officers could not determine ownership of the marijuana therefore all three were

Four women in Georgia filed a lawsuit against Accord Service for discrimination. The company allegedly refused to put nurses in in-home positions if they were deemed "too black, too old, or too foreign" (Ng 2011). Additionally, one of the plaintiffs who worked in Human Resources found that the African American nurses were being paid significantly less money than white nurses. This plaintiff, Tracee Goodman, stated that before placing a nurse in a home, she would be blatantly asked what color the nurse was and their age before a decision was made (Seward 2011). If the client was white, then management would often insist a Caucasian nurse treat that patient. When the plaintiff brought this to the attention of superiors, her own hours dwindled to the point where she could no longer afford to stay with the company.
