will significantly further” those interests. Third, the government must demonstrate that “the involuntary medication is necessary to those interests.” Fourth, it must demonstrate that the “administration of drugs is medically appropriate.” Sell v. United States, 539 U.S. 169, 180-181 (2003).

suspect on the front porch. The officer could not legally approach the suspect as the front porch is considered an area of curtilage because this is an area that one feels that they have the right of privacy. The case that supports my decision is United States v. Dunn where police received a tip that Dunn’s barn contained alleged equipment to manufacture drugs. The barn was away from Dunns home which allowed for them to search the barn after not receiving a warrant. This case established four factors

and the circumstances surrounding both. In the 1969 case Brandenburg v. Ohio, the Court abandoned the clear and present danger test, stating that only speech that produces or is likely to produce violent actions or illegal behavior can be banned (Cohen 32). The Court argued a difference between advocacy of ideas and incitement of unlawful conduct exists – though the Court did not define it. During this time, the United States was not concerned with being overthrown by insurgents or overcome with

KOREMATSU v U.S. 323 U.S. 214 (1944) Perhaps, according to Bernard Schwartz, the greatest failure of American law during World War II may be illustrated by the case of Fred Toyosaburo Korematsu. As graphically described in 1944 by a member of the bench, his case is one that is unique in our system: Korematsu was born on our soil, of parents born in Japan. The Constitution makes him a citizen of the United States by nativity and a citizen of California by residence. No claim is made that he is

Gonzales v. Raich was a landmark case which determined the extent that Congress could regulate marijuana usage in California. More precisely, the case involves deliberation between the constitutionality of the Compassionate Use Act, voted on by the state of California in 1996, and the Controlled Substances Act (CSA), passed by Congress in 1970. Does the CSA, a policy which permits the regulation of certain drugs and chemicals by the Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA), exceed the regulations set under

It is essential that the “Bad Dog” sign or equivalent wording must be easily readable as well as posted in a prominent place. Carroll v. Moxley, 241 So. 2d 681 (Fla. 1970). The sign must be easily readable meaning that the sign is legible and capable of being read, not necessarily that the injured party must have been able to actually read and understand it. Registe v. Porter, 557 So. 2d 214 (Fla. 2d DCA 1990). In order to be relieved of liability, an owner must have a prominently placed “Bad Dog”

Can A Patient Be Forced to Take Medication If There Is No Medical Emergency? In this case, the patient John Rennie, a former pilot, had been in and out of mental health facilities in the state of New Jersey since his twin brother died in 1973 in an airplane accident. Between 1973 and 1977 he had been treated both inpatient and outpatient, numerous times, per the court record, at least 11 times. He had been diagnosed with various mental health issues which included paranoia, schizophrenia, and manic

statement under the Fifth Amendment for violation of Miranda rights, (1) the suspect must be in custody of law enforcement officials and (2) subjected to interrogation (3) without being first provided Miranda warnings. United States v. Brownlee, 454 F.3d 131, 4 (3d Cir. 2006) (citing Rhode Island v. Innis, 446 U.S. 291 (1980)). Here, the police officers that detained Mr. Knight are law enforcement officials; however, Mr. Knight was not in custody because he was stopped for a short and temporary amount of

During World War II, there were many posters to persuade individuals to help the workforce, some specifically targeting women. In one of the posters, “we can do it,” a woman named Rosie the Riveter is exhibited showing her muscles to display her strength. The main attention is the woman’s strong arm and caption to exemplify the strength of a female and how underestimated they are in the real world. The poster has very glaring colors and the bandana on the woman’s head makes her seem somewhat rebellious

In the landmark case of Korematsu v. United States the Supreme Court was correct in the ruling because the executive order that was issued became a law to protect the country from persons that had close ethnic ties to the enemy and made all people that the government deemed a threat to national security into prisoners. Although this was against moral standards, it was a necessity at the time to protect the country. While it may seem that it was just the Japanese that were prosecuted, it was also
