Wisconsin-Madison Case

In the case of Robert Tolan and Marian Tolan vs. Jeffrey Wayne Cotton, I will be discussing what interest me about this case. I will also deliberating on the liability and criminal liability of this case. The Tolan vs. Cotton case interests me because the United States have so many police that are brutalizing citizens. In some cases the police officers are getting away with it. After reading, reviewing, and studying this case I have learn a lot about the criminal system and laws that men and women should obey. I will explain how the nine judges on the Supreme courts all came to a verdict against the police officer Jeffrey Cotton after he shot an innocent suspect. This people

The Illinois trial court denied motion to suppress, finding the gun was recovered during a lawful stop and frisk. The Illinois Appellate Court reversed Wardlow 's conviction, concluding that the gun should have been suppressed because Officer Nolan did not have reasonable suspicion sufficient to justify an investigative stop pursuant to Terry v. Ohio, 392 U. S. 1 (1968). 287 Ill. App. 3d 367, 678 N. E. 2d 65 (1997). The Illinois Supreme Court agreed. 183 Ill. 2d 306, 701 N. E. 2d 484 (1998). While rejecting the Appellate Court 's conclusion

The following case analysis seeks to examine the Supreme Court’s decisions in Racine v. Woods, [1983] 2 S.C.R. 173, in regard to the legal questions, basis of reasoning, as well as the cultural implications.

In 1886 the US Supreme Court declared that states could not regulate commerce that went beyond their boundaries in the Wabash, St. Louis and Pacific R.R. versus Illinois case. The decision provided the basis for the formation of the Interstate Commerce Commission in 1887. The Interstate Commerce Commission was a regulatory agency in the united states. Its purpose was to regulate railroads to ensure fair rates, to regulate rate discrimination and to regulate other aspects of common carriers, including interstate bus lines and telephone companies.

In Wisconsin v. Yoder (1972) the Supreme Court held that a law requiring children to

The faculty is entrenched in their ways, and change causes ambiguity and uncertainty. Moreover, the faculty in the organization feel uncertain about the new concepts presented by Dr. Ball to the deans altering their salaries and evaluations (Bolman & Deal, 2013, p. 31). The proposed changes create competition and unrest among the faculty and will shatter the business-as-usual campus conduct and job security. The dean's and faculty are grasping at the symbolic frame, defending their beloved academic lifestyle (Bolman & Deal, 2013, p. 248). The secondary problem in this case is support from the deans of the incentive program that will restore Weston University prestigious reputation as set by the board and developed by the president.

In response to the allegations, the University of Michigan asserted that their policy was designed to promote diversity and ensure “unique contributions to the character of the Law School” (Cornell University Law School, n.d.). The University of Michigan maintained that they did not employ racial quotas rather they systemically focused on improving diversity in each entering class. The University associated their policy to Regents of Uni. Cal. v. Bakke (1978) which addressed race in university admission decisions.

Webster's dictionary defines tenure as, “the act, right, manner, or term, of holding something (such as a landed property, a position, or an office); especially :a status granted after a trial period to a teacher that gives protection from summary dismissal. In other words, educators receive due process protection from accusations or charges against them.Years ago, educators who acted in destructive and abusive demeanor sidestep meaningful ramifications due to tenure safeguards .However, the supreme protection granted to tenured teachers diminished greatly as of July 2011. Michigan stripped the unassailable security of tenure and the world of education in Michigan altered permanently.Forlornly, educator Kathleen Goulouze failed to adhere to modifications of the updated teacher tenure decree.

Defendant Hankins filed a motion to correct an illegal sentence on appeal after pleading guilty to felony charges because he argued a Kansas trial court wrongfully considered a deferred judgment from Oklahoma in his sentencing calculation. The State argued that Kansas law required such deferred judgments from other states to be included in sentencing determinations. The Supreme Court of Kansas disagreed with the Court of Appeals’ dismissal of Hankins’ motion, finding that there was a discrepancy between Kansas and Oklahoma’s statutory standards for an entry of a judgment of guilt. Under Kansas law, the Court concluded, a conviction requires a judgment of guilt. However, under Oklahoma law, “an entry of judgment will not be entered for an offender who successfully completes a deferred judgment. The initial conditions are to be imposed ‘without entering a judgment of guilt.’” Therefore, the Court found that no

In the case of Brandenburg vs. Ohio, the Appellant, a Ku Klux Klan leader named Clarence Brandenburg was convicted under the Ohio Criminal Syndicalism statute for purposefully and publicly encouraging violence and prejudicial actions in the speeches he made whilst attending a clan rally. The criminal syndicalism law stated ,“one cannot advocate crime, sabotage, violence or unlawful methods of terrorism or political reform.” as well as it being unlawful to fill the heads of others with the same ideas and doctrines. During one of his many speeches, he claimed the president was suppressing the caucasian race and announced plans for a march on Washington.

February 25, 2015 was the national adjunct walkout day. Like the previous year, adjunct faculties performed a rally around their administration, a shout out for their rights for a couple of hours and returned to their homes. Adjunct faculty members are, in fact, the professors, instructors, and other employees who work part-time and are non-tenured in the universities and colleges. Although the national adjunct walkout day educates about the problem that adjunct faculties are facing and it is negatively affecting education in schools, it is not causing the educational system to increase their pay nor is it giving them rights to be treated equitably to tenured faculty.

In the case, Wisconsin v. Yonder which was argued on December 8, 1971, and the decision was made on May 15, 1972.

Marbury Vs. Madison is one of the most important cases in the history of the Supreme Court. It was the first case in the US Supreme Court to include the principle of judicial review. In 1803, this case was written by Chief Justice John Marshall. The newly organized part of the Democratic-Republican party ran by Thomas Jefferson defeated the Federalist party ran by John Adams. After this defeat, the Federalists panicked and had to think fast. Adams interviewed a number of justices of peace for the D.C whose commissions were approved by the Senate, signed by the president, and affixed with the official seal of government in the last days of Adams’ presidency.

Firstly, Dean Blake’s immediately convened a Strategic Planning Committee without first ‘studying the situation in more detail’ as he promised during his interview. It could be said that, the desire to initiate plans rather than affect the right ones was the bane of Mr. Blake’s challenges. Given that, all workers were used to the existing status quo and were probably comfortable to some extent, from strategy point of view, there was bound to be reactions and resistance to the abrupt change in strategy without due consultations with grassroots and senior staff members. Secondly, Blake’s adopted the committee’s recommendations without recourse to the administration. Broad consultations during a strategic reformation are critical to the success of the strategy. There was the tendency for other staff members to isolate themselves for fear of being seen as standing in the way of their new boss. Thirdly, Dean Blake’s introduction of the intended change in the strategic direction in the Old State University was too soon and appears not to have undergone a thorough critique on the risks of its implementation vis a vis the existence of the previous strategy. More so, Blake’s inability to communicate his vision / plans to the faculty contributed
