Brief Texas v. Johnson located on page 166 of your text. Follow the briefing format explained on pages 13-16: citation, facts, rule, issue, holding, reasoning, and criticism. Recall that the facts should include any fact that you think affected the court's decision as well as the main procedural facts. The rule should be the rule as it existed prior to this decision. The issue statement should contain two main components: the rule (label plus definition) and specific facts. After reading the issue, the reader should know exactly why each side thought it had a chance of convincing the court that it should win. The holding should be very specific so that your reader will know the limits that the court placed on its decision. The reasoning section should be as complete as possible so that your reader can fully understand why the court decided as it did. Finally, the criticism section should include a short accounting of what the dissent had to say. Your criticism section should also point out any logical failings or limitations that you found in the majority opinion's thinking. Make sure anyone reading your criticism section can tell when you are giving your own criticism versus when you are simply reporting on what the dissent had to say. The project is due as follows: Part A -- Citation, Facts, and Rule - Week 1 You only have do the citation, facts, and rule!!!!!!! The following pages are the e-text steps you'll hav e to follow to create the case brief. page 13 (3) Briefing court opinions The word brief has several meanings in the legal field. When we refer to briefing a case or to case briefs , we are referring to a written summary of a court opinion. This is to be contrasted with an appellate brief, which is a formal written argument to an appellate court, in which a lawyer argues why that court should affirm or reverse a lower court's decision. (a) Reasons for briefing cases Briefing court opinions serves two purposes. First, and most important, it makes you read the case thoroughly. You have to go back and dig out the essentials, organize them, and state them in your own words. This is necessary for an adequate understanding of the court opinion. Second, it is a form of note taking that provides a condensed record of the most important information about the case you briefed. You can use these case briefs to refresh your memory when preparing for class or studying for exams. (b) Format of a case brief While most case briefs share many common features, there is no single format that is universally accepted within the legal community. Indeed, there are almost as many different briefing styles as there are attorneys writing briefs. What we present here is an approach that we think will help you organize your thoughts and understand the opinion. The case briefing method described here breaks the case down into the following elements: (i) case citation, (ii) facts — both procedural and substantive, (iii) r.

1 How to B rief a Case Prepared for the L egal Studies Program Amer ican Public University System December 2013 Introduction: A case brief is a concise summary of the significance of a case. It is a bit like but with very special rules! It is a time-honored practice used throughout the legal profession and law schools. As a teaching tool, the case brief forces the student to identify and provide a written description of the most important aspects of a case. Legal precedent, also known as Stare Decisis, is a doctrine which governs much of our legal process. and the rationale underlying it ---- that is, how the judges arrived at their decision ---- is essential to the study of law. The case brief serves as a very useful vehicle by means of which to analyze and understand judicial decisions. A case brie aspects of a case. A case brief is not an invitation to re-write the opinion or to paste together ed on your understanding of the case. Of cour words can be useful, if used sparingly. A case brief should be concise; it should be no more than 1-2 pages. There are at least several different methods or models for writing the case brief; these are based on personal preferences. In the Legal Studies Program, however, the format described here will be used for all of the case briefs which you are required to write in your courses. By using this uniform format, you will gain familiarity with the case analysis and brief writing process. opinion, rather than a mere summary. Therefore, the first step in the brief writing process is always to thoroughly read the entire case. This includes reading any concurring and dissenting opinions of members of the court. In this regard, be very sure that you are reading the entire opinion! In some internet based sources, the Syllabus (headnotes/summary) of the opinion is presented at one link, the majority opinion is presented at another link, etc. You need to read all portions of the opinion as all of them are relevant to your analysis of the case. For example, if there are strong dissenting opinions based on key legal points, this could predict what the court might decide in the future on similar issues. 1. Case Name and C itation: As a header on the first page of your brief, you should state citation to the case. (See Bluebook resources in the APUS library for more information about Bluebook format.) It is essential that the reader of your case brief know who initiated the litigation and who appealed. For example, in the sample case brief of the Delahanty case (see accompanying materials), Thomas and Jean Delahanty are clearly identified as the plaintiffs (parties who initiated the litigation) and as appellants (parties who sought appellate review of the 2 legal reporter in which the opinion is found, the volume and page on which the case appears, and the year in which the case was decided. 2.

CRM 123 – How to Brief a Case A case brief is a dissection of a judicial opinion. It contains a written summary of the basic components of that decision. Briefing a case helps you acquire the skills of case analysis and legal reasoning. It also helps you understand it. Briefs help you remember cases for class discussions and assignments. Learning law is a process of problem solving through legal reasoning; case briefs, therefore, should not be memorized. Below are examples and explanations of the components of a case brief. 1. Case Title and Citation ■ Buckhannon Board and Care Home, Inc. v. West Virginia Department of Health and Human Services (Plaintiff Nursing Home) v. (Defendant State Entity) 532 U.S. 598 (2001) Case titles generally take on the names of the parties involved in the case. For example, in this case Buckhannon Board and Care Home, Inc. v. West Virginia Department of Health and Human Resources, Buckhannon Board is the party asking the Court to reverse a lower court’s holding; W est Virginia Department of Health and Human Resources wants the Court to affirm that holding. A citation acts as the case’s “address.” There is a standard format for cases contained in the United States Reports (abbreviated U.S. in case citations). Therefore, in this case, the citation is 532 U.S. 598. This means that this case is found on page 598 of the 532nd volume of the United States Reports. 2. Procedural History ■ Procedural History The Court of Appeals affirmed the District Court’s dismissal of the case and denial of attorney’s fees. The Supreme Court affirmed. The procedural history (or posture) states how the case got to the court that wrote the opinion that you are reading. 3. Facts ■ Facts Buckhannon Board and Care Home, Inc. (“Buckhannon”), which operates care homes that provide assisted living to its residents, failed an inspection by the W est Virginia Office of the State Fire Marshall because some of the residents were incapable of “self-preservation” as defined under state law. On October 28, 1997, after receiving cease and desist orders requiring the closure of its residential care facilities within 30 days, Plaintiff, on behalf of itself and other similarly situated homes and residents brought suit in federal district court against the state of West Virginia, two of its agencies, and 18 individuals. Plaintiff agreed to stay enforcement of the cease-and-desist orders pending resolution of the case and the parties began discovery. The district court granted W est Virginia’s motion to dismiss, finding that the 1998 legislation had eliminated the allegedly offensive provisions and that there was no indication that the Legislature would repeal the amendments. Buckhannon then moved for attorney’s fees as the prevailing party. This section includes a brief overview of the relevant facts of the case that (a) describe the dispute at hand and (b) have bro.

Waffle House, p. 81) Read about arbitration law in Chapter 4 and Case 4-3 in your textbook, and do some online research on the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC). Then discuss the following: What is the EEOC’s role in regard to business? Does the court say that the EEOC trumps the arbitration contract between the employee and the employer? If so, why? What are the pros and cons of arbitration agreements? Do you think arbitration agreements between big companies and low wage earners who are uninformed about the law are truly fair? If you have any experiences at work with discrimination policies or EEOC trainings, share those experiences. Dogs and Dream Therapists (Hagen v. Field, pp. 65 (question 7), and Jones v. Williams, p. 43 (question 9) P65 The plaintiff, a Texas resident, and the defendants, Colorado residents, were cat breeders who met at a cat show in Colorado. Subsequently, the plaintiff sent two cats to the defendants in Colorado for breeding and sent a third cat to them to be sold. A dispute over the return of the two breeding cats arose, and the plaintiff filed suit against the defendants in Texas. The defendants alleged that the Texas court lacked personal jurisdiction over them because they did not have minimum contacts within the state of Texas. Read both cases and discuss legal issues for the court, focusing on in each. Summarize what factors the court looks at in determining where a case can be brought. What was the decision in each case, and do you think the decision was correct? Why or why not? ASE 4-3 p81 EQUAL EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITY COMMISSION v. WAFFLE HOUSE, INC. UNITED STATES SUPREME COURT 534 U.S. 279 (2002) All employees of Waffle House had to sign an agreement requiring employment disputes to be settled by binding arbitration. After Eric Baker suffered a seizure and was fired by Waffle House, he filed a discrimination charge with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) alleging that his discharge violated the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (ADA) under Title VII. The EEOC subsequently filed an enforcement suit, to which Baker was not a party, alleging that Waffle House's employment practices, including Baker's discharge “because of his disability,” violated the ADA. The EEOC sought the following: an injunction to “eradicate the effects of [Waffle House's] past and present unlawful employment practices”; specific relief designed to make Baker whole, including back pay, reinstatement, and compensatory damages; and punitive damages. Waffle House sought to dismiss the EEOC's suit and compel arbitration because of the binding arbitration clause signed by Baker. The District Court denied Waffle House's motion to dismiss. The Fourth Circuit agreed with the District Court that the arbitration agreement between Baker and Waffle House did not foreclose ...

Case Brief Guidance Single space and clearly label each section. A case brief should never exceed a page and a half (usually one page). I may not ask for you to provide all six sections for a given case, so read the assignment instructions. I have included an actual example below and note my comments about the facts, decision, and implications. You are to use only the information in the actual case (no outside help), thus no citations are necessary. You should be sure to include quotation marks if you utilize a direct sentence or phrase. A rubric for scoring is provided in the link below where you accessed this document. Sections Usually Needed and Clearly Label Each Section: 1. Facts – In a paragraph not to exceed a half of a page, summarize the key events that led us to the presents courts review. This must include include the results of the lower courts as well. 2. Issue – What key question (maybe two) is the Supreme Court addressing? This is usually not whether the court of appeals got it right or wrong, but a legal issue that needs further examination or clarification. It is to be phrased as a question(s) and usually can be directly quoted. 3. Decision – What did the court decide with regards to the question AND what is the next course of action for the case or parties as described in the opinion? This should only two sentences max! 4. Reasoning – Why did the court decide the way they did? This should include the legal reasons for their decision and is likely as long as the facts section depending on the case. 5. Other opinions – Quickly identify what other opinions were written by Supreme Court Justices (concurring/dissenting) and by whom. You do not have to discuss what they said unless I specifically ask for that in the instructions for that case. 6. HRM/Business Implications – What will be the lasting impact of the courts decision on business and HRM practices? This section should probably be around 3 good solid sentences depending on the case. Example: 1. Facts of the Case The petitioner Barbara Grutter applied to the University of Michigan Law School in 1996 with a 3.8 GPA and a 161 LSAT score. Grutter was initially placed on a waitlist but was ultimately rejected by the Law School. Grutter filed suit in the United States District Court of the Eastern District of Michigan against the Regents of the university, the Dean of the Law School, the President of the university, and the Director of Admissions at the Law School. Grutter, a white female, claimed that they had discriminated against her on the basis of race which, violated the Fourteenth Amendment, Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, 78 Stat. 252, 42 U.S.C. § 2000d; and Rev. Stat. §1977, as amended, 42 U.S.C. § 1981. Grutter alleged that the University of Michigan used race as a predominant factor to grant admission to certain minority groups and that the respondents had “no compelling interest to justify their use of race in the admissions process. Grutter sued for compensato ...

LEGAL ENPROVMENT MODULE 4 Start by reading and following these instructions: 1. Quickly skim the questions or assignment below and the assignment rubric to help you focus. 2. Read the required chapter(s) of the textbook and any additional recommended resources. Some answers may require you to do additional research on the Internet or in other reference sources. Choose your sources carefully. 3. Consider the discussions and any insights gained from it. 4. Create your Assignment submission and be sure to cite your sources, use APA style as required, check your spelling. Assignment: 1. Brenda Brandt was admitted to Sarah Bush Lincoln Health Center (Health Center) to receive treatment for urinary incontinence. During the course of an operation, the doctor surgically implanted a ProteGen Sling (sling) in Brandt. Subsequently, the manufacturer of the sling, Boston Scientific Corporation, issued a recall of the sling because it was causing medical complications in some patients. Brandt suffered serious complications and had the sling surgically removed. Brandt sued Boston Scientific Corporation and Health Center for breach of the implied warranty of merchantability included in Article 2 (Sales) of the Uniform Commercial Code (UCC). Health Center filed a motion with the court to have the case against it dismissed. Health Center argued that it was a provider of services and not a merchant that sold goods, and because the UCC (Sales) applies to the sale of goods, Health Center was not subject to the UCC. Health Center proved that Brandt’s bill was $11,174.50 total charge for her surgery, with a charge of $1,659.50, or 14.9%, for the sling and its surgical kit. Is the transaction between Brandt and Health Center predominantly the provision of services or the sale of goods? Explain your answer. 2. Executive Financial Services, Inc. (EFS), purchased three tractors from Tri-County Farm Company (Tri-County), a John Deere dealership owned by Gene Mohr and James Loyd. The tractors cost $48,000, $19,000, and $38,000. EFS did not take possession of the tractors but instead left the tractors on Tri-County’s lot. EFS leased the tractors to Mohr-Loyd Leasing (Mohr-Loyd), a partnership between Mohr and Loyd, with the understanding and representation by Mohr-Loyd that the tractors would be leased out to farmers. Instead of leasing the tractors, Tri-County sold them to three different farmers. EFS sued and obtained judgment against Tri-County, Mohr-Loyd, and Mohr and Loyd personally for breach of contract. Because that judgment remained unsatisfied, EFS sued the three farmers who bought the tractors to recover the tractors from them. 1. What does the entrustment rule provide? Explain. 2. Did Mohr and Loyd act ethically in this case? 3. Who owns the tractors, EFS or the farmers? 3. Donald Wayne Doyle (Debtor) obtained a guaranteed student loan to enroll in a school for training truck drivers. Due to his impending divorce, Debtor never attended the program. The first ...

Judicial Opinions Overview: After the simulation, justices write judicial opinions in reaction to the oral argument, merits briefs, conference, and draft opinions as well as the facts of the case, Constitution, and case law. Justices circulate drafts so they know how their colleagues plan to rule and why, and so they can respond to one another in their final judicial opinion draft. Instructions: You are a Supreme Court justice preparing an opinion for announcement. Read the case materials: case hypothetical, merits briefs, and judicial opinion drafts of your colleagues, and review your notes from oral argument and conference. Write a majority opinion resolving the major legal question in light of the facts of the case, Constitution, and case law, as well as all case materials: merits briefs, oral argument, and the views of your colleagues (in conference and draft opinions). Opinions must support an argument, refute counterarguments, and respond to attorneys (oral argument and/or merits briefs), and fellow justices (conference and/or draft opinions). Opinions should contain the following five elements, in the following order: 1. an introductory statement of the nature, procedural posture, and prior result of the case; 2. a statement of the issues to be decided; 3. a statement of the material facts; 4. a discussion of the governing legal principles and resolution of the issues; and 5. the disposition and necessary instructions. Each of these is developed further below. Assessment: Complete opinions must support an argument, refute counterarguments, and respond to attorneys (oral argument and/or merits briefs), and fellow justices (conference and/or draft opinions). Strong opinions will be well organized, logically argued, and well supported through reference to and explanation of Supreme Court decisions and legal principles. Assessment rests on how well you make use of, identify, and explain relevant course material. It also rests on staying in character and not diverging from your justice’s political ideology and/or judicial philosophy. Introduction The purpose of the Introduction is to orient the reader to the case. It should state briefly what the case is about, the legal subject matter, and the result. It may also cover some or all of the following: 1. The parties: The parties should be identified, if not in the Introduction, then early in the opinion, preferably by name, and names should be used consistently throughout. (The use of legal descriptions, such as “appellant” and “appellee,” tends to be confusing, especially in multi-party cases.) 2. The procedural and jurisdictional status: relevant prior proceedings, and how the case got before the court should be outlined. Statement of issues The statement of issues is the cornerstone of the opinion; how the issues are formulated determines which facts are material and what legal principles govern. Judges should not be bound by the attorneys’.

Instructions Integral to this course will be the ability to read, understand, brief, and discuss the cases of the Supreme Court of the United States (SCOTUS). The following information, "How to Brief Case Law,” discusses how to master these tasks. This information will be referenced and used throughout the course, including in the unit assessments. The official site of the Supreme Court of the United States (SCOTUS) is a useful and beneficial tool. Some cases even provide the ability to listen to the oral arguments. This site could be used to supplement any additional information the student might need. Note: There are numerous sites on the internet that provide case briefs. If any student case briefs are copied, there will be an automatic score of zero for the respective unit. How to Brief Case Law A court uses the following components in case law. You should use these components when you brief, or summarize, case law. Each component is detailed below: 1) Proper and full legal citation 2) Procedural history 3) Facts 4) Issue(s) 5) Holding, including vote 6) Rule(s) of law, Legal principle that was used/created 7) Rationale reasoning/analysis use by court 8) Significance—What do we have now, that we did not have before this case? Case Brief Explanation Proper and full legal citation List the title of the case and the case’s legal reference according to APA standards. Example: Miranda v. Arizona , 384 U.S. 436 (1966) Procedural history Typically, there is a section that covers the judicial history, that is a very short summary of what happened at each preceding stage: trial court of XX found the defendant guilty (as described in the “Facts” section), (party name) appealed based upon (specify legal issue), and the appellate court affirmed or reversed, it was then appealed to the (State) Supreme Court which reversed or affirmed, and based upon the Constitutional issues of 1,2,3, (these are enumerated in the “issues” section) the case was appealed to the (name the federal court), that affirmed or reversed, and then (party name) appealed to the USSC on the grounds of (very specific constitutional grounds); the court granted certiorari (agreed to hear the case on this specific basis). Facts of the case Facts of the case should be the ABSOLUTE fewest words possible to convey the legally relevant issues. No details are needed unless they are specifically related to the particular legal challenge bringing us to the United States Supreme Court (USSC). It takes discipline and practice to keep this to a few lines while still capturing the essentials. This section ends with a conviction and provides a segue to the next section. Issues Issues are answered using yes or no question(s) that identify the larger constitutional question that will be considered by the USSC and is typically quite specific in terms of a legal issue, but not necessarily specific to the set of facts in this case. It is possible that a sing.

Case study using the Ethics Worksheet below: TESLA MOTORS Identify an actual media case which includes ethical considerations. The case may involve national or local news media, advertisers, public relations practitioners, or media entertainment in magazines, movies, books, etc. The sweep is broad, though the case must in some way involve one of the media: newspapers, magazines, books, TV, radio, movies, records or the web. It may involve advertising, public relations, or journalism. Try to choose an issue you're already interested in, or something based on a personal experience. It will make this project more fun to do. The choice must NOT be something we already used for a class case study. To find ideas, read, read, read, listen, listen, listen, or watch, watch, watch. Get ideas from your textbooks, or from class discussions. You can find oodles of ethically-sensitive cases out there, if you're looking. I won't give you possible choices here--as this is an theoretical-level class, it's time for you to take the initiative! b. Identify the ethical issue posed by the case, and collect background information on this issue from library sources and interviews with experts. You'll need to explain: · how the issue has been handled by philosophers and media people in the past; · legal considerations; · professional considerations; · opinions of experts in the field. Basically, tell me everything the world knows about the ethical issue raised by your sample case. c. Complete the ethics worksheet, decide how you would, or would have, handled the case. This part of the assignment is similar to previous class exercises. Length: Using the ethics worksheet as an outline, description of the case should be at least one page.Research on the case should total at least five to seven pages, and a good eight sources, (minimum is 5 sources) books and articles included--not only web sites! You'll probably have to rely on the library's on-line databases, perhaps interlibrary loan. Your paper should be set up using the ethics worksheet questions, with each question number indicated. Your answer will probably be both in narrative and bulleted form, as you think works best. This means your description of the case will fit into, perhaps, questions two and three. Your consideration of how ethical theories relate to your case will fit under question 11, etc. Your ethics worksheet analysis will be similar in size to those you've turned in for class projects (in other classes), but longer, about 10-12 double-spaced, typewritten pages. Objectives: To recognize an ethical issue based on an actual situation; to understand how ethics philosophers and writers have considered your chosen issue; to critically analyze a case,acknowledging ambiguities. At the end of your work, you'll be the expert on this issue, so I expect to read in your work a lot that I don't know already. Ethics Worksheet for Case Studies - Tesla Motors 1.

Has the Court’s ruling in the case affected other rulings in other cases? 2. Has the Court’s ruling affected the interpretation and enforcement of any particular laws, and how those laws are enforced? 3. If applicable: Has the Court’s ruling in this case affected you, or someone you know, personally? 10. Write your essay. If you organized your information based on the suggested outline, then all you have to do is write down what you have learned from your research, and put it into a footnoted two to three page essay. Your first paragraph is the introduction (the information under letter A of your outline). The second paragraph is the information under letter B, and so on. 11. Sources: Be sure to cite your sources, using sequentially numbered footnotes. That means any information you learned from another source, such as a website, a magazine article, a videotaped interview etc., must be properly noted in your essay. Make sure you use footnotes in proper BlueBook citation style. Footnotes appear at the bottom of ...

SQUEEZE PLAY false Thomas, Geoffrey . Air Transport World 48.6 IT HARDLY IS NEWS THAT THE EMERGENCE IN THE ASIA/PACIFIC REGION of multinational low-cost carriers modeled on the leading LCCs in North America and Europe has transformed and reinvigorated the inter-Asia travel market. But while most of the attention is focused on the impact these upstarts are having on major network/flag carriers, a less public battle is going on as Asia's niche airlines - SilkAir, Nok Air and Bangkok Airways, for example - find their space being challenged by the low-fare wave as well. Neither full-service nor LCC, this band of carriers has fulfilled a role somewhat analogous to the holiday and charter airline segment in Europe, albeit on a much smaller scale. Some are standalone entities plying short-haul routes with turboprop and small jet aircraft. Others exist as part of a major airline organization, flying the last leg of a transcontinental journey into an Asia/Pacific vacation destination. The question is how long they can continue in their role in the face of changing travel patterns and consumer behavior brought on by LCCs, the Internet and rising GDPs. A key year for them is 2015, when Southeast Asia's Open Sky Agreement comes into effect, allowing unlimited flights to all 10 ASEAN members: Brunei, Cambodia, Indonesia, Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand and Vietnam. Any protections they enjoy from restrictive bilaterals will disappear and they will be fully exposed to aggressive competition from today's batch of LCCs and future new entrants. Perhaps Thailand presents the best microcosm of the wider challenges facing niche airlines. When Thai AirAsia was launched in 2004 with the political support of the government, Thai International Airways, itself government-owned, responded by establishing Nok Air, in which it holds a controlling 39% stake. But as so often happens in such situations (think British Airways and Go or Continental Airlines and CALite), Nok Air and its parent were more at war with each other than with the new entrant. While Thai AirAsia has come from nothing to operate a fleet of 19 new Airbus A320s serving 24 domestic and international destinations, Nok Air has just 10 aging Boeing 737-400s and two ATR 72s serving 17 domestic points. The future for Nok may be a bit rosier. CEO Patee Sarasin told eTN in 2009 that the airline, which at the time was carrying fewer than 2 million passengers a year, had "buried the hatchet" with its owner and the two now had common goals. "It is true that we had difficulties in the past to cooperate as we lacked a common vision," he said. "We are now ready to cooperate again." Prior to the makeup, Thai was considering selling its interest in Nok or assuming 100% control to make it a more effective competitor to Thai AirAsia, although in actuality a takeover might not have been possible owing to the refusal of other shareholders to sell. Part of the new agreement was a realignmen.

Spain is a country full of hundreds of exuberant celebrations, holidays, and festivals that happen throughout the year. The unique characteristic of how these people are passionately dedicated to their customs and celebrations is second to none. From small mountain villages to the busy city streets of Madrid, these festivals take place, fueled by religious and cultural origins. The villages and cities have their own festivals in addition to the numerous national holidays, and as one can imagine, there are many "days off" on the Spanish calendar. The beauty of seeing entire towns and cities participate in one same celebration is a symbol of the passion and unity the Spanish have in regards to their festivities. In contrast, our Great American Melting pot has National Holidays and other celebrations that are carried out, yet we all have our own twist on how or why we celebrate. Some people do not celebrate certain holidays and have personal reasons for or against recognizing and participating in certain National Holidays. Our traditions are no less firm and many of us are very passionate about our celebrations, yet the unity and sameness of how customs are practiced is varied. This parallels with the very first forum we had on Spanish greetings. We discussed how the Spanish greet, and how they all greet this same way. Every time. Again, here in the US, we have greeting customs that vary from a handshake to a pat on the back, with or without eye contact, sometimes non-verbal, sometimes with no touching at all, and other times with a nod and smile. Greetings and celebrations in the US vs other countries are indicators of how diverse our population is. Americans have varied beliefs, religions, practices and customs. We often celebrate similar holidays but for different reasons and in different ways. The "New World" is certainly a melting pot, and is different from countries like Spain where traditions run deep and are nationally celebrated, customs are very similarly practiced and generally done so with one same common reason and purpose. There is no right or wrong in this contrast, just a difference that points to our unique patchwork that is "American life." Keeping in theme with the topic of Spain's celebrations, your assignment is to research one celebration in Spain that you have never heard about. Find out the following information: What is the celebration/festival? What is the origin and reason for the celebration/festival? Who participates? Where does it take place?? How is this festival celebrated? (What does it look like to be there among the participants?) Why did this celebration get your attention and would you like to participate in it? Think about a celebration or holiday you celebrate here in the US and compare and contrast how and why your celebration is similar and/or different than the celebration you are presenting. Don't just clue into obvious differences, but think about the reasons, meaning, and purpose along with t.

Soon after the U.S. invasion of Afghanistan in 2001, the Bush administration developed a plan for holding and interrogating captured prisoners. They were sent to a prison inside a U.S. naval base at Guantanamo Bay, on land leased from the government of Cuba. Since 2002, over 700 men have been detained at Gitmo. Most have been released without charges or turned over to other governments. In 2011, Congress specifically prohibited the expenditure of funds to transfer Gitmo prisoners to detention facilities in the continental United States, making it virtually impossible to try them in civilian courts. As of April 2012, 169 remained in detention at Gitmo (Sutton, 2012). An assumption made by the Bush administration in selecting this location was that it was beyond the jurisdiction of U.S. courts. The administration wanted to avoid any judicial oversight of how it handled detainees, characterized as enemy combatants. A possible legal challenge to indefinite detention with no formal charges or judicial proceedings might arise from the habeas corpus provision of the Constitution. Article I, Section 9 of the Constitution states, "The Privilege of the Writ of Habeas Corpus shall not be suspended, unless when in Cases of Rebellion or Invasion the public Safety may require it." Under this provision, persons detained by the government are entitled to a judicial hearing to determine if there is any legal basis for their detention. Some legal commentators refer to the right of habeas corpus as the "great writ of liberty" because it is a prisoner's ultimate recourse to an impartial judge who can review the possibility that he is being held illegally by the executive (e.g., the police or the military). In nations that do not honor habeas corpus, people simply disappear into prisons without ever having their day in court. Several controversial Supreme Court cases have come out of Gitmo. One fundamental question that has been debated, but not clearly resolved, is to what extent the war on terror justifies the President's indefinite detention of enemy combatants without the possibility of the minimal judicial review protected by habeas corpus? Another issue in the debate is to what extent Congress must clearly authorize the President to conduct extra-judicial detentions in order for them to be legal? In 2008, the Supreme Court’s decision in Boumediene v. Bush offered some answers to these questions. However, the deeply divided 5-4 Court and the likelihood of the protracted nature of the war on terror suggest that debate around these important questions will continue. Writing the Final Paper in this course will prepare you to participate intelligently as a citizen in this ongoing debate. Write an essay about the right of habeas corpus in the context of the war on terror. Your essay should address the following subtopics: Explain the historical evolution of habeas corpus, including its English and American traditions. The explanation of its evolution.

some information : In order to recover from a disaster, there are different factors would support like; how the organization is prepared for the disaster, At what degree the disaster is, and the communication level used among the teams and other individuals ……etc. Communication is essential and playing a major role in disaster recovery attempt, it might lead to success or failure all depends on how accurate and timely is the level of communication used. Organizations use a Notification Directory (ND), which is a directory has a list of important contacts for individuals involved or needed to the disaster recovery. These individuals could be team members who are the team responsible for the disaster recovery and other teams and sub teams. Those could be the management of the organization top level all the way down to governmental departments outside the organization like the fire department. The list also can include vendors and other representatives. Communication between these individuals in an effective, timely and accurate way leads to overcome the disaster and recover it. There are several purposes for Notification Directory summarized as follows: To be the connecting bridge to notify involved people to the disaster or disaster recovery process in an effective way. Facilitate the communicating between the disaster team and other teams to maintain recovery process by providing a timely and accurate updates. Creating a path for the lists of contacts for which is important to call first than others. Notification Directory is notifying individuals involved and important to the disaster recovery process. However, Organizations must take a sort of procuration by not relying on one or few individuals to contact because it could be risky. So keeping on notifying all individuals involved and making sure the communication level is tied enough to maintain the recovery process is essential. Communication has to deliver a timely, accurate and effective updates depending on the kind of the disaster occurred. Some disasters to be measures as small and some as massive so the directory have to contain an expansion of the group of whom to contact or notify accordingly. In addition, various methods of notification is critical and her are examples: Couple of emails, Different phone numbers, Cellular number and Conference Call Bridge. .
