For over 70 years the homes off of Woodlawn Avenue have been known as Hathorn Court. However, the community came together on Saturday to change the name to Woodlawn Court.

C. Precedent The law is unconstitutional not only due to the meaning of the text itself, but also from many cases of precedent. District of Columbia v. Heller, 554 U.S. 570 (2008) and McDonald v. City of Chicago, 130 S. Ct. 3020 (2010) have already established the importance of the Second Amendment, but there are other cases as well that back up the courts decision claiming the ban on carrying a concealed weapon is unconstitutional. In Bliss v. Commonwealth, 2 Litt. 90, (KY 1822), established that the right to bear arms was for defense against themselves and the state. This case consisted of a man carrying a concealed weapon in his cane and it is similar to the one in which we face today.
Many critics, including myself, believe that the United States Supreme Court incorrectly decided the case of Michael H. vs. Gerald D. The case was argued on October 11th, 1988 and the Court decided their stance on June 15th, 1989. The court decided that a father related by blood to his child that was also seen as adulterous, does not have the constitutional rights to paternity over the father who is married to the mother of said child. Contradicting this stance, many critics have stated their opinions on the matter.
In 1991, a band that uses fragments of samples from other bands and sounds, was sued by a famous rock band called U2. U2 claims that Negativland copied u2’s “I still haven’t found what I’m looking for instead of sampling it. Negativland and their record label, SST records, were found guilty. I overturn the lower court’s decision. I believe the lower court’s ruling should be overturned because I do not believe that Negativland Violated the copyright law by sampling from U2.
In 1945, the High Court of Australia heard the case of Gratwick v Johnson and ultimately decided to dismiss the appeal in a unanimous decision by the Judges. While different reasoning was employed, all five judges drew the conclusion that the appeal should be dismissed as the statute the defendant was charged under was inconsistent with s.92 of the Australian Constitution. To provide some context for this case in 1944, Dulcie Johnson was charged with an offence against the National Security Act 1939-1943 in that she did contravene par.3 of the Restriction of Interstate Passenger Transport Order by travelling from South Australia to Western Australia by rail. In brief terms par.3 of the Restriction of Interstate Passenger Transport Order provided that no person shall, without a valid permit, travel from state to state or territory.

However, Dean Houston from the college said, “The college’s Judicial Board made the decision after fully considering all aspects of the case. It was also a decision without bias.”

In fact, many of her decisions were for a swing vote to keep the balance between conservative and liberals. Since she took part on various liberals’ cases, most republicans were disappointed at her, but as Viet Dinh (Georgetown Law, 2015), on biography declared that O’Connor judged cases individually, according to facts not to personal ideas. As for the case Mississippi v. Hogan, per Biography (2017), a female state run nursing school opposed to admit a male student, O’Connor rightly voted per the majority writing that the school stereotyped the nursing job to be just for women. Also in 1990, in the case Planned Parenthood v. Casey, O’Connor supported abortion rights after marriage as a woman right. Furthermore, in Handi v. Rumsfeld (2004) O’Connor voted with the majority on due process rights for American citizen that are considerate “enemy combatant” by the executive branch.

In summary, the issue at hand stems from a disconnect in company policy, and emerging issues related to social media use in modern workplaces. James Kenton, a valued employee of Downcity Motors took to his personal Facebook, outside of working hours to voice his concerns and opinions that had been previously neglected by Management. Although his status’s did contain truths that were shared among many employees, the sarcasm and disparaging remarks depicted the company negatively. There is the potential to damage the brand as Kenton has a wide network of stakeholders such as other employees, customers and industry professionals on his page. The first time Kenton posted remarks to Facebook, the boss Dell wanted him fired immediately, however Susannah
The history of America is as much the history of freedom and triumph as it is the history of the segregation and oppression of African Americans. The acquisition of Civil Rights was not just contained in the movement of the 1960’s, but was a road that had spanned the entirety of the era after the end of Southern Reconstruction. If President Hayes had not agreed to remove Federal soldiers from the South, the Civil Rights movement would not have happened during the 1960’s, but would have happened much earlier. During the time of reconstruction, the rights of the newly freed African Americans was constantly in jeopardy, and it was an ongoing struggle for the fair treatment that was promised by the Constitution. When the North lost southern influence,
