Case: US Vs. Virginia Military Institute

In a quick observation, it may be easy to observe that the Constitution of Virginia is much larger in length and detail than the United States Constitution. There are many differences between these two constitutions besides the authors or contributors being that James Madison contributed to both, however, he was not the complete author of the Constitution of Virginia (Constitutions of Virginia). Both Constitutions have the same idea in which it holds three separate branches of government, however, differences include the detail and content brought amongst the articles. Differences include, but are not limited to, division of the three branches, extra articles and policies, and the amendments. They

Private schools should have the right to make their own rules to help their students and better their school. Policies and rules set in place by the private school administration stating that pregnant or parenting students must follow different rules than regular students are violating the students’ rights to education. Pregnant and parenting students who are asked to leave private schools have no way of fighting for their rights because Title IX does not apply to privately funded schools. Pregnancy discrimination in schools is a violation of girls’ rights as women, considering only girls can become pregnant. This country has fought for equal rights for women for many years. There have been many Supreme Court cases revolving around discriminating against women. In 1965, Weeks v. Southern Bell won women the fight against labor laws and regulations about the hours and conditions that women can work and opened many jobs that were previously only available to males (Writing Women Back Into History). In the 1969 case of Bowe v. Colgate-Palmolive Company, women meeting the physical won the right to work in jobs that only men could work (Writing Women Back Into History). In Pittsburgh Press v. Pittsburgh Commission on human Relations of 1973, Supreme Court ruled against

The case of Schuette v. Coalition to Defend Affirmative Action was presented before the Supreme Court of the United States; the case questioned that whether a state violated the Equal Protection Clause of 14th Amendment by maintaining a ban on the racial and sex preferences on the admissions in the public universities in the constitution of the state (Bernstein). The arguments on these cases started on 15th October, 2013 on an appeal for the Sixth Circuit from the United States Court of Appeal, which had established the rule in 2012 regarding Michigan ban, which was approved by the voters of the state in the year 2006. The Sixth Circuit emphasized that the Michigan ban was unconstitutional. But, the ban on the state was upheld, the Sixth

Legal Question: The legal issue presented in this case ultimately questioned the University of Michigan’s admission policy which sought a more diverse student body. The court addressed whether the University of Michigan’s use of racial preferences in the admission process violated

This case has also set the groundwork for forthcoming cases such as Bethel School District v. Fraser where the courts decision was based on this landmark case. It was stated that basically “students are not granted the same coextensive rights as adults in other settings outside of school”. Institutions of education still apply the decisions made in New Jersey v. T.L.O. to today’s school settings to maintain order and accountability of student well

The school then appealed to the Supreme Court and the Supreme Court decided in a 5-4 decision that the state may consider race as a factor for admittance for diversity, but only if other circumstances are

Another case felt that they reached the same result is Mularadelis v. Haldane Central School Board, 74 A.D.2d 248, 255-57, 427 N.Y.S.2d 458, 463-64 (N.Y.App.Div.1980). This case helped the Appellate Division of the Supreme Court in New York to hold overall that the athletes opportunities for males were equal. They felt that the equal protection clause was not violated by the exclusion of boys being on any particular

The Supreme Court has significant impact on molding the society of the United States, so does it play an important role in the process of the realization of equal protection on the right to education. From Plessy to Brown, every case that had milestone meaning indicated the evolution on the equal protection of the right to education, and also marked the progress of American civilization. However, there are different points between Plessy and Brown. Brown v. Board of Education was educational case of black race, but Plessy v. Ferguson is not it; the result of Plessy is isolation but equal, the Brown show us that

The Bradwell v Illinois took place in 1872. This was a case in which a women named Myra Bradwell applied to a law school in Illinois and was denied acceptance. Myra Bradwell had everything she needed to get accepted to the school of law she applied to, she had everything except one thing, Myra was not a male. The law school to which Myra applied to denied her acceptance simply because she was a woman! They denied Bradwell an education in law simply because practicing law wasn’t considered ladylike. They told her that law belonged to men and not women. Regardless, Myra didn’t want to be a stay home, she didn’t want to settle for just the role of a mother and a wife so she went for it. Myra appealed the court She argued that it was her God-given

The Charles C. Green v County School Board of New Kent County decision of 1968 was a pivotal point in the history of the civil rights movement. It was the court case that finally forced school boards across the country to desegregate their public schools. This did not happen until over a decade after Brown v. Board had deemed segregation unconstitutional and Brown II had sought to abolish it and overturn the “separate but equal” decision of Plessy v. Ferguson. The goal of this paper is to tell the story of how the state of Virginia moved through Brown I, Brown II, and Green v. New Kent County to put an end to segregation in schools.

The Equal Protection Clause derives from the Fourteenth Amendment, which specifies “no state shall deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws…” As a part of the Reconstruction Amendments, the aforementioned clause was meant to ensure racial equality in the Reconstruction Period and has been applied successfully against the affirmative action. Introduced in United States v. Carolene Products Co., the strict scrutiny has been applied to the cases, in which a fundamental constitutional rights have been infringed or a government action applies to a suspect classification (i.e. race, religion, national background). Specifically, in regards to Bakke v. Regents of University of California, the Supreme Court (“the Court”) concluded that, considering that the University of California, Davis received several Caucasian applicants for its special admission program in 1973 and 1974 and that none of the applicants received the admission to the program since the start, the program unfairly administered in favor of minority races and, therefore, violated the rights of the white applicants under the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment. Furthermore, from Hopwood v. State of Texas, the Fifth Circuit Court ruled under strict scrutiny that, the affirmative action imposed by the University of Texas School of Law (“the law school”) violates the Fourteenth Amendment since neither the law school nor the University of Texas system has proved a proof of

Facts: Safford Unified School District and April Redding, The dispute of this case is when Savannah’s privacy became violated when Safford School District stripped search her and revealed some private areas and her upper chest area. It got to the Supreme Court, when the district court reward a motion, then the Ninth circuit court reversed the ruling on the strip search because it was unconstitutional for them to strip search Savannah the second time.., The Supreme Court used New Jersey VS. T.L.O in the process of helping in the decision because in that case it was school officials searching a girls pursue because they had reasonable doubt that she was carrying cigs and had a list of the people that owed

With the end of the conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan, many veterans are returning home suffering from Post-Traumatic Stress and Traumatic Brain Injuries (TBI). For various reasons, instead of seeking help, many self-medicate through drugs and alcohol, and lash out at loved ones. When this happens, a large percentage find themselves caught up in the already flooded legal system, further perpetuating their issues and overwhelming the system. Veteran's Treatment courts offer an alternative to traditional court procedures, closely resembling the already proven model of the Drug Courts, taking the individuals out of the legal system, and getting them the help they need to treat their problems and reintegrating back into the civilian world, instead of just pushing them through the system time and again.

This is because even though corporations are considered legal entities, this applies only to the state they were founded in and the states they do business in. Because they do no business in Virginia, Zelek is not considered a legal entity there. This means that Virginia's courts have no jurisdiction over Zelek and they can't be sued in that state.

The Commonwealth of Virginia v. Allen (609 S.E.2d 4, Va. 2005) was a fascinating case. The case focused on two expert witness testifying for the state and the other for the defendant, and if they acted and behaved ethically during the proceedings. Successive information will be addressed to prove the thought process behind my opinion given in this case. The APA code of ethics and specialty guidelines will be used to support my reasoning. Furthermore, they will serve as a baseline of boundaries within the profession to determine the expert witness’ influences to the case as well as their behavior within the profession.
