The Supreme Court is the courtroom where all the legal cases dealing with congress or the constitution go to get a final decision. The Court is currently composed of a chief justice, eight associate justices, and nine officers. Their main goal as members of the Supreme Court is to make sure everything and anything abides by the constitution. It has many powers when it comes to law and especially the constitution, but it is not overly powerful due to the other two branches of the government. Checks and balances helps keep their powers level and just as important as the executive and legislative branch powers. The Court has the ability to remove a law or refute anything that violates the United States Constitution. The Supreme Court, on average, receives around 7,000-8,000 petitions for a writ of certiorari every term. The Court grants and hears oral arguments for eighty cases. One case specifically was Printz v. United States. This case focused on dealing with background checks when purchasing a firearm.

In this brief, I am going to prove to you, the judges and the court, that Officer Raymond’s initial stop is objectively justified under the Fourth Amendment and the New Setonia Statute. Because the truck was old, Officer Raymond’s experience being a police officer, and Mr. Jackson’s making movements towards the glovebox while Officer Billy was approaching the car, this proved there was reasonable suspicion to stop the car. Additionally, even if Mr. Jackson’s car was not a commercial vehicle, there were enough other factors pertaining to search of the truck that made the mistake of law objectively reasonable. Based on all of the facts and the evidence listed in the case, the state of New Setonia is going to win.

The criminal trial process is an interesting process that takes place in Courtrooms all across the United States and throughout the globe. This study intends to set out the various steps in the criminal trial process in the American justice system. A trial is described as a "legal forum for resolving individual disputes, and in the case of a criminal charge, it is a means for establishing whether an accused person is legally guilty of an offense. The trial process varies with respect to whether the matter at issue is civil in nature or criminal. In either case, a jury acts as a fact-finding body for the court in assessing information and evidence that is presented by the respective parties in a case. A judge presides over the court and addresses all the legal issues that arise during the trial. A judge also instructs the jury how to apply the facts to the laws that will govern in a given case." (3rd Judicial District, 2012)

In the summer of August 31, 2017 Emily Yoffe wrote an article called Innocence is Irrelevant. This article is about a women named Sweat who got framed by her boyfriend, by putting drugs in her house and then calling the police and framing her. The story goes on to tell us how she has to commit guilty to a crime to take care of her family. Sweat is hoping to make her life happy is by knowing that her kids are happy and protected. Unfortunately having to plea bargain is making it very difficult to make sure her kids are protected. For example when Sweat said, “ she believed that this would result in the police pinning the crime on her sons” (Yoffe, 23). Taking the blame for her boyfriend all started when he didn’t abide by Sweat’s rules in the house and smoked marijuana in front of her kids in the house. She kicked him out and wanted him out of her life. The outcome was he framed her and called the police on her. When the police found the stash she made a very bold decision and told herself. “I’m not going to let my children go down for someone else’s mistake. A parent should take ownership of what happens in the house” (Yoffe,21). In doing so to protect her sons she told the police the marijuana was her’s. Sweat is relatable to Mama in A Raisin in the Sun because Sweat and Mama both want what’s best for their children.

The plea cases are crucial to the criminal justice system in the cases if the case is not strong by the prosecutor. However, the film “the plea” shows the people that were offered the plea bargain didn't really have a case against them and the police covert operations and arrests made on the basis of an informant are not and can't be rely upon. It's simple the informant in many cases want to keep their importance by staying in the loop with the law enforcement by implementing the innocent people. Furthermore, in such cases the person that is being accused is not shown or told about the informant or what sort of information and evidence the prosecutor has due to the sensitivity of the case. In the process the innocent people are grilled through
