[SOLVED]: homew
[SOLVED]: homew In Part I this week, choose a case from your state that involves civil
rights or civil liberties that was decided by the United States Supreme Court. If your state
does not have a case that was decided by the United States Supreme Court, choose a civil
rights case from another state for which the United States Supreme Court issued a
decision.Here is a brief description of civil rights and civil liberties: Civil rights refers to
equal social opportunities under the law. It gives you these freedoms such as the right to
vote, the right to public education, or a fair trial, among other things, regardless of your
wealth or race. Civil liberties mean freedom of religion, equal treatment and due process
under the law, and the right to privacy.You should be able to go online and look up your
state and famous cases decided by the Supreme Court. For example, Brown v Board of
Education (1951) started in Topeka, Kansas and ended up in the Supreme Court of the
United States. Another example would be Calvary Chapel Dayton Valley v Steve Sisolak,
Governor of Nevada (2020) that started in Nevada and ended up the United States Supreme
Court. A good source of information about cases decided by the United States Supreme
Court is www.scotusblog.com. Other sources can be researched online using search terms
for “civil rights cases decided by the U.S. Supreme Court.” Be sure to use a case actually
decided by the United States Supreme Court, and not a case decided by your state’s supreme
court or a different court. A case that is still pending before the United States Supreme Court
should not be used. If you are unsure, please contact your Professor BEFORE you pick your
case and submit the assignment as this is a significant part of your overall grade.Research
your court case and write an outline of the case that you will be using to prepare a
presentation, which will either be a narrated PowerPoint, a Kaltura Video, or some other
format as approved by your instructor. If you are unsure, then verify the presentation
format with your instructor before starting work on this assignment.This week’s
assignment should include (a) summary of the case; (b) a case outline; and a summary. A.
Summary of the CaseIn one or two paragraphs, provide a general overview of the case that
serves as a snapshot of what the case is about and how it ended up in your state high court.
A summary is using your words to write a brief history of the case. Do not give your opinion
or your interpretation but stick to the facts only.B: Case OutlineYour court case outline
should include:Title: Name of the caseFacts of the case: Provide key facts involving the
case.History of the case: What legal action was taken based on what your state laws say
about this case?Legal questions: What were the legal issues the court had to
decide?Decision or holdings: Did the court decide for the plaintiff or the defendant? Explain
the reason behind the decision?Verdict and opinion (judgement): What were the concurring
and dissenting opinions? How many judges decided for the defendant and how many
justices decided against the defendant? What was the final verdict from the judge or the
jury, if it was a jury trial?C. ConclusionWhat was the resulting impact of the ruling? How did
the citizens of your state benefit from it? Was this a good decision?Writing Requirements
(APA format)The length of your outline will vary. Usually an outline is anywhere from 1-3
pages long. Make sure to write full sentences to explain your case. It is a concise list to be
used as a reference for you during the presentation.Using the outline, you will be describing
the court case in your presentation and the scenario around the court case. The use of
Wikipedia as a primary source of information is to be avoided – it is not a reliable source of
information.Search for an example of a case outline in the Internet. Without going into much
detail at this state, each of the items listed above has a subject sentence with 3-6 bullet
points that can help you expand on the topic.For Week 7, you will be creating a narrated
PowerPoint, or a video as approved by your instructor, from this week’s outline.This
assignment is worth 200 points.
