Patton V. USA Summary

Operational leaders see how the individual components of an organization fit together and use those individuals work to make a larger outcome. When they focus on a problem, they think of what works best within the process and systems to make an impact on the situation. These types of leaders play a big part in making sure that things get done in an effective and functioning manner. According to the Army Doctrine ADP 6-0, the Army over time has strayed away from operational leaders and adapted Mission Command, which gives leaders the ability at the lowest level the capability to exercise disciplined initiative in an act of carrying out the larger mission . Mission Command is made up of the following six steps: Understanding, Visualize,

The case of Kent V. United States is a historical case in the United States. The Kent case helped lead the way in the development of a list of eight criteria and principles. This creation of these criteria and principle has helped protect the offender and public for more than forty-five years. Which as a reason has forever changed the process of waving a juvenile into the adult system (Find Law, 2014).

In the case Lawrence v. Texas (539 U.S. 558, 2003) which was the United States Supreme Court case the criminal prohibition of the homosexual pederasty was invalidated in Texas. The same issue has been already addressed in 1989 in the case Bowers v. Hardwick, however, the constitutional protection of sexual privacy was not found at that time. Lawrence overruled Bowers and held that sexual conduct was the right protected by the due process under the Fourteenth Amendment. The effects of the ruling were quite widespread and led to invalidation of the similar laws throughout the United States that tried to criminalize the homosexual activity of adults which were acting in privacy. The case attracted much of the public

An example of racial profiling that involves both Stop-and-Frisk and DWB is the incident behind Whren v. United States. The incident behind the case involved two black men, Michael Whren and James Lester Brown, in Washington D.C. who were driving a truck through a high drug area. An unmarked police car with two officers pulled up next to the truck that was stopped at a stop sign for an unreasonable amount of time and then sped away at a high speed. The police officers then pulled them over and saw a clear plastic bag. Under the suspicion that it was drugs, they searched the car and ended up finding a substantial amount of drugs. The decision of Whren v. United States says that if a police officer has a reasonable suspicion, he can stop the car for that reason alone. There is no need for a traffic offense because ‘driving suspiciously’ is enough to warrant a stop. While yes, they did see the plastic bag and that was the caused for the search, they stopped them because they were African American men in a high drug area and drove suspiciously. There is no saying that if they were two white men that they would not have been pulled over as well, however, if they were two black men not in a high drug area and drove suspiciously they would have still been more likely to be pulled over than two white men. This shows the underlying problem is not that the law directly discriminates, it’s that the police who enforce and the society who follows it that have biases and stereotypes that

The film Saving Private Ryan, is about a United States Army Captain (CPT) and his chosen squad that are tasked with locating and recovering Private (PVT) Ryan, after the news of his three brothers’ deaths reaches the Army. The CPT chooses a few specific men to aid him with this mission.

Decision in Philadelphia was design to provide a close up information about the origins of the constitutions. From the points of view of the basic questions of human spirit and the relations of society to the government in general of the 55 delegates and what they sought to accomplish. Casting many of the Founding Fathers in a new light, reminding us that they were human, and not gods, “The writers of the American Constitution were not Angles” (page 306). Thus, sometimes giving unnecessary information about the delegates, overall it helps the reader to identify their prospective and what they sought to accomplish, and with different characters of the delegates, they wouldn’t agree in a lot of topic, making compromises which will beneficiate

Korematsu v. United States (1944) actually began December 7, 1941 with the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor. The attack on Pearl Harbor then began the conquering of Wake, Guam, Philippines, Malaya, Singapore, Dutch East Indies, New Guinea, Solomon Islands, and Burma. With the attack on Pearl Harbor, racism, which was hardly unfamiliar, became an even greater problem. The Japanese Government's attacks on Americans including; torturing, raping, and murdering was an excuse for Americans aversion towards the Japanese. Public officials began to lock up the Japanese people simply for their own good, for protection against the hate crimes.

Like Kate, I did not receive a larger raise and have been passed over for promotions. The feedback given was, I was too quiet. Kate 's manager put the company in danger of a discrimination lawsuit, if it can be proven she discriminated against due to her sex. Although the situation I experienced may be more difficult to prove, in a lawsuit, it does violate the law, and it was unethical. Personal opinion, rather than work performance, was the motivator in both situations.

District of Columbia v. Heller is a court case that occurred through the years of 2007 through 2008. The reason of the occurrence of this court case is because Dick Anthony Heller was a special police officer in D.C.. He was authorized to carry a handgun on duty but not off duty because of D.C.’s policy on firearms. D.C. made it illegal to carry unregistered firearms and prohibited the registration of handguns. However the Chief of Police could issue a one year license to carry a handgun.

In the case of Kennedy V. Louisiana Patrick Kennedy was found guilty in raping and sodomizing his eight-year-old stepdaughter in a Louisiana courtroom. Mr. Kennedy refused to plead guilty and stated the crime was committed by two young boys from the neighborhood. He was convicted sentenced to death 2003. On March 2nd 1988 the victim sustained severe injuries; the injuries required emergency surgery because the rape was so brutal. Louisiana law authorized capital punishment for the rape of a child twelve years and younger. Mr. Patrick Kennedy challenged his sentence under the eighteen amendments as cruel and unusual punishment. The Louisiana Supreme Court declined the challenged that the death penalty was not too harsh for such a wicked crime. In a Supreme Court decision Coker v. Georgia 1977 the United States Supreme Court concluded that capital punishment for rape of an adult women was not applicable if the victim is a child and if it did not result or contemplated in result of a death. The court discussed a number of Supreme Court case related to child vulnerability and the death penalty. In the case of Roper V. Simmons the court ruled that the death penalty could not be applied to a person if the crime was committed when they were under the age of eighteen. In another case, Atkins V. Virginia the death penalty could not be placed on a mentally ill person. The petitioner Kennedy argued that in all these cases they do not establish conformity.

Mr. Moran’s pre-marital agreement with Ms. Moran is enforceable under Oregon law because Ms. Moran voluntarily entered into the premarital agreement and because the agreement was not unconscionable when it was executed. In Oregon, a premarital agreement can only be rendered non-enforceable if the party seeking to do away with the agreement is able to prove that they had not voluntarily entered into the agreement or that the agreement had been unconscionable at the time it was signed. 11 O.R.S. § 108.725 (2015). In the case at hand, neither of these requirements has been met, and thus the lower court’s judgement for Ms. Moran should be reversed and judgement rendered for Mr. Moran.

With the ruling of the Monroe v. Pape case in 1961, it held the local governments could now he held liable in federal courts. It would have to be proven that there was a violation of an individuals' constitutional rights and that the damage had been committed in violation to a policy or custom of that local government. The main causes for liability come from allegations of non or improper performance of their duties and responsibilities however, negligence does not always amount to criminal negligence. Probation officers (PO), working on behalf of the state, are only immune if it can be proven that their actions were in good faith.

From a fiercely brave General, who strictly enforces customs, bravery, formalities, and success; to a General with a lighthearted-mood, down to earth attitude, a steadfast courage, and a integrity and decency to lead the nations of the world into battle; while both these legendary Generals fought on the same side, both General S. Patton and General D. Eisenhower were distinctly different Generals. This paper seeks to outline the differences and similarities between the two Generals by taking a close look at their lives, and the impacts they had on WWII.
