Do you know that notifying your fellow Americans of their constitutional rights was a Federal crime? Well it was during World War One (WWI). In the case Schenck v. the United States, schenck tried to remind his fellow Americans of their constitutional rights and also let them know that the draft was being used as a form of militarized slavery. This case contained men who his right was taken away after he tried to get the military draftees to fight against the draft. However Congress took his right of speech away when it was arrested and convicted of violating the Espionage Act of 1917. This was the time the WWI one had broken out, the government need men to fight. They were short staffed for that to work and they need man to fight this

Schenck vs. United States is a Supreme Court Case from 1919, in which Charles T. Schenck was charged and convicted of being in violation of the Espionage Act. The Espionage Act, passed in 1917, was the effort of Congress and President Woodrow Wilson, to protect national security during World War I. At the start of the war, there was a strong sense of national pride to fight, however, groups who opposed the war still remained. According to (Belknap, Schenck vs. US), the Espionage Act addressed the issue of national security through the press. It became illegal to falsify reports to aid an enemy, rebel within the armed forces, and obstruct military recruitment. The following year the Sedition Acts of 1918 were passed, which made it illegal during wartime to speak of, print, or write in the context of disloyal or abusive language to the United States (Sedition Act was repealed in 1921). When these laws were passed, the media was filled with rumors of spies in the United States, which took the attention off any

The first Supreme Court case that I listened to was one brought forth in front of the Warren Court in 1965. The case of Griswold v. Connecticut is a very significant case regarding contraceptive use, counsel and advice with married couples. The case later played a great reference in the Constitutional rights for abortion. The Griswold v. Connecticut case went in front of the Supreme Court in March and was passed a few months later in June by a vote of 7-2 in favor of Griswold.

Strickland v. Washington, 466 U.S. 668 (1984) was a decision by the Supreme Court of the United States that set the standard for determining whether a criminal defendant’s Sixth Amendment right to counsel is violated by a lawyer's alleged incompetence during trial. On September 25,1789 the Sixth Amendment was introduced into the United States Constitution as part of the Bill of Rights, and on December 15, 1791 it was ratified. The Sixth Amendment guarantees a defendant the right “[T]o have the Assistance of Counsel for his defense.”

It’s very easy to just simply state that the ones housed in this military facility should be tried in a court of law, but finding a place to actually do this is not possible without causing extreme amounts of turmoil and

Ninth Circuit Court holds that an employee has a reasonable expectation of privacy in their private office, because it is locked and not shared with others. This reasonable expectation of privacy extends to the contents of their office, including the employee’s company computer, located therein. As a result, the court held that the fourth amendment protects both the office and computer from warrantless searches by the government unless it obtains valid consent from either the defendant or one with common authority over the items searched, or proceeds on the authorization of one with apparent authority to give such valid consent. In this case, the Ninth Circuit holds that the government obtained valid consent from one with common authority over the items searched, when it received such consent from the employee’s employer. The employer had common authority over the employee’s office computer because it had a policy of, and regularly did, monitor employees’ computer usage of company machines, a policy of which its employees were made aware. The court accordingly denied defendant’s motion to suppress evidence found by the government during its warrantless search of defendant’s office computer. As a result, pursuant to a plea agreement, defendant was convicted of the receipt of obscene material based, in part, on evidence obtained during this search. The evidence obtained during this search, and by the company earlier, showed that defendant had viewed and had possession of

Marbury was a committed federalist who believed that the Jeffersonian argument to reduce federal government control and give power back to state governments was deeply flawed ( ).

In 1934, a farmer named Thomas Lee Causby and his family bought a small farm eight miles west of Greensboro, North Carolina. They raised chickens on their three acre plot and made a living on the proceeds of the meat and eggs. A third of a mile away from Causby’s farm was an airfield. Linley Field, originally a pasture used by barnstormers, had opened in 1927. It was used as a mail stop and the home of the first passenger service in the Triad, until two near-crashes caused it to be ordered closed in 1935. Two years later, it reopened with two new paved, fixed runways —one of which pointed directly at the Causby’s farm. This meant that less than ten percent of the time, depending on the prevailing winds, the small single or double engine private planes using the airport would be taking off or landing right over the Causby’s heads. It could be noisy and distracting, but the planes were few and infrequent enough not to cause a great disturbance to the Causbys or their lives.

I agree with the statement that the federal courts act in an undemocratic manner. The decision in Marbury v. Madison is not really the issue, it was the Supreme Court granting itself the power of judicial review. In declaring Article XIII of the Judiciary Act of 1789 unconstitutional the Supreme Court acted in contradiction to the Constitution by usurping the rights of the states and individuals as granted by the Tenth Amendment. The only way to return judicial review would be for the states or individuals to file suit in federal court to petition the Supreme Court to stop exercising judicial review. Unfortunately this case would end up before the Supreme Court making the entire process moot.

Barack Obama ordered special forces travel to Abbottabad, Pakistan to find and capture Osama Bin Laden. This was a very important day to our country because they had been searching for him for almost 10 years and finally found him on May second, 2011. He also gave a speech on September 11, 2016, honoring those whose lives were lost during 9/11. In 2009, Barack Obama passed the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act. This act gives women the right to sue their employers if they find out they aren't being paid as much as a man for the same

The prosecution must adduce sufficient evidence for the judge to not withdraw the case. Thus, even if the prosecution has discharged the evidential evidence, it does not mean the accused will lose. The
