Worden V. Edward Gein Case

Craig v. Boren was the first case in which a majority of the United States Supreme Court determined that statutory or administrative sex classifications were subject to intermediate examination under the Equal Protection Clause which is part of the Fourteenth Amendment. The United States Supreme Court established a new standard of judicial review for laws with gender-based classifications. What happened that brought this case to the Supreme Court was a law in Oklahoma that prohibited the sale of beer with 3.2% alcohol content to males under the age of 21 years old, but females who were under 21 but over 18 could also buy the alcohol. Craig v. Boren ruled that the gender classification violated the Equal Protection Clause of the

The Perin v. Hayne case involves malpractice in which the plaintiff, Perin sought damages on four theories specific negligence, res ipsa loquitur, breach of express warranty and battery. The surgery was successful at eliminating pain, however as a result the plaintiff suffered vocal cord paralysis. I believe that due care was shown because Dr. Hayne, the defendant, performed the surgery exactly the same way any other physician would under the same condition. Also, informed consent was exercised and there was no way to predict or prevent such occurrence. Dr. Hayne followed the standard of care and did not sway from it. There is no negligence because there was no evidence that the nerve was severed during surgery. The court found that

Engel v. Vitale, 370 U.S. 421, was a landmark United States Supreme Court case that ruled it is unconstitutional for state officials to compose an official school prayer and encourage its recitation in public schools.

“They smelled too bad” was the response when saying he would never have intercourse with the dead bodies he dug out of graves (Yoong). He pleaded not guilty by insanity. Ed Gein filled his home in Connecticut with human body parts; he assembled a suit made of human skin, a belt that was made of female nipples and a lampshade formed from a human face. Gein was interested in skinning people and also the female parts. On November 1957 Bernice Worden disappeared from her local hardware store (Yoong). An Officer who was also Mrs.Wordens son, Frank decided to check out Gein’s place after finding out that he was spotted in town on the day of her disappearance (Yoong). Upon arriving two officers discovered the headless body of Bernice Worden, upside down on a meat hook. Intestines were found in a box, her heart on a plate in the dining room and the skin of 10 other faces that were preserved in a jar (Yoong).

In the case of the State v. Ballew, James Ballew was a patient in the psychiatric ward who made a 911 call stating he and five other people had placed bombs in and around the Seattle airport. When police traced the call, they found out it had been James Ballew who made the threat and the state charged him with making a bomb threat. During his trial, Ballew appealed the court ruling by implying the court violated his First Amendment right of free speech. Although the First Amendment is broad, it does not extend to “true threats” which is what calling in a bomb threat falls under. A true threat basically states that a person makes a statement under circumstances where the intent is to inflict bodily harm or take the life of another person which absolutely applies to Mr. Ballew’s threat and the state cannot allow such statements which can cause fear amongst

Regarding Laura Norberg V. Morris Wynrib, two major points are brought up. Firstly, she was sexually assaulted by her doctor, which falls beneath the tort of battery. Secondly, the notion of ‘’fiduciary obligation’’ is questioned, due to a disagreement of whether or not the relationship between Norberg and Wynrib was considered fiduciary. The court of appeal terminated the case based on the fact that she consented, so the case found it’s way into the Supreme Court. After Norberg was found guilty under the Narcotic Control Act, she actively chose to enter a rehabilitation center, upon being released, she sued the doctor who exploited her vulnerability.

Facts: The plaintiff was an employed for the defendant. The defendant informed the plaintiff that his position would be eliminated because of budget constraints. The defendant gave him the option of resigning and retiring or waiting until the December when the position would be terminated. The decision had to be made before the date of June 30th however there was new retirement policy taking effect on July 1st which would cause the plantiff not to receive his post-retirement medical benefits.

Does Richard Lehmann carry the rights as a bystander in which he can claim for damages to an incident where he did not initially perceive the accident but took part in saving his son as well as being in close relation to him as a father.

The last court hearing on 2/25/2014was dismissed due to a technicality of my paper work not being correct, because I did not know what I was doing. I am not an attorney and can not afford one.

An expert witness also has the privilege to offer opinions. Furthermore, they question examinees and not patients or clients. He does not form any working relationship with the subjects (Strasburger, Gutheil, & Brodsky, 1997, p.448).

Expert opinion in the court is required when the juries need assistance of an expert with special

According to Rowena Jeffers, Elliot Anderson’s wife Carol died in a car accident, leaving him to raise his granddaughter on his own. Carol was the primary caregiver for Eloise, creating daily routines for Eloise. Her death has left Mr. Anderson to continue these routines and become the primary caregiver for his granddaughter. Judge Cummins referred the social worker to the Anderson family because Mr. Anderson informed the judge that Eloise’s behavior had changed since the psychological evaluations (Costner & Binder, 2014).

Edward Theodore Gein, more commonly known as Ed Gein, was born Aug 27 1906, in La Crosse Wisconsin, USA (Jenkins par 1). Ed had a harsh childhood, he experienced it with Henry, his older brother, and his parents, Augusta and George. His mother had been religiously dedicated, and Ed was zealously devoted to her, whereas his father was an alcoholic (Biograpgy.com Editors par 2). Growing up Augusta was very dominant, often verbally abusing the Gein brothers. She had the utmost control over Ed and Henry, both were not allowed any social interaction with individuals she disliked. She taught them about religion, often reading to them from the Bible, especially verses about pre-martial sexual relations, and all women being whores and prostitutes. At school Ed was often bullied, because of his lack of social behaviour, most likely caused by his mother. Ed listened to his mother and respected her, but on the other hand Harry, Ed’s brother, openly hated what she preached and would challenge her views. George couldn’t do anything; he wasn’t a violent alcoholic but instead quite feeble. Augusta wore the “pants” in the relationship, and although she hated George, because of his alcoholic ways, divorce was out of the question, as she believed divorce itself was a sin.

In the case of V Secret Catalogue, Inc and Victoria’s Secret Stores, Inc. v Moseley, Victor and Cathy Moseley, (referred to as the Moseley’s from here out), opened a store that was named closely to the plaintiff’s company name. Originally the case was ruled in favor of the Moseley’s stating that there was no actual dilution of the senior mark’s name. Congress then overturned the Supreme Court’s decision citing the Trademark Dilution Revision Act of 2006 (Cheeseman, 2013). I would assume that Congress uses its “veto power” more often than one would think, although I believe that it does not get used very often. I believe that Congress would not often enact a new statue in order to change the ruling of
