Is there Jurisdiction, law homework help

/in /by

Is there Jurisdiction?

Look at the situations below and answer the question. Make sure to distinguish between subject matter and personal jurisdiction. Additionally, discuss the standard the court will use to determine whether jurisdiction exists.

Situation 1: Mike, a Utah resident, sues Jim, a Nevada resident for $60,000 in Nevada’s Federal District court for negligence (a state law civil suit). Jim argues that the case should be dismissed for a lack of subject matter jurisdiction. Is he right?

Situation 2: Bill, a California resident, sues Bob, also a California resident, for copyright infringement, a cause of action arising under federal law, in a Federal District Court in California. Bob argues that there is no subject matter jurisdiction. Is he right?

Situation 3: Billy, a Seattle, Washington resident, sues the Orange Corporation, a Texas corporation, under a breach of contract (a state law cause of action) in Washington State Court for $100,000. The Orange Corporation does most of its business in Texas. It is incorporated in Texas, and its corporate Headquarters are located in Dallas, Texas. However, the Orange Corporation does have a branch office in Seattle, Washington where it employs a single salesman. Additionally, the corporation advertises in the Seattle. The corporation argues that Washington lacks personal jurisdiction over the corporation. Is the corporation right? Assume for this question that Washington may exercise personal jurisdiction to the extent permitted by the Constitution of the United States. Be sure to list the standard the court will apply.

Situation 4: Same facts as above. Assume the court finds there is personal jurisdiction. Can the Orange Corporation have the case removed to federal court?

ethical question

/in /by

The video that you saw contains a role play of a 13 year-old who is pregnant and talking to a counselor. Counselors recognize the need to balance the ethical and legal rights of minor clients to make choices, their capacity to give assent to receive services. Counselors also recognize the importance of building a collaborative relationship and parental or familial legal rights and responsibilities to protect these clients and make decisions on their behalf. Keeping this in mind, discuss the following points in your post:

State which one of the six moral principles in the ACA Code of Ethics that this role play most closely illustrates and support your choice.

Assume that this is an initial consultation and that the services are pro bono (free). After reading the article provided in the module, state the reason you think there is or is not a legal issue.

Read the ACA Code of Ethics sections A.2.d. and B.5.b. What are the ethical issues involved?

As a counselor you want to provide services to this minor in a way that would meet best practice standards and the law. How might you begin to work with this client?

Post should consist of at least 200 words.

Six moral principles of the ACA (Autonomy, Nonmaleficence, Beneficence, Justice, Fidelity, Veracity)

(A.2.d. Inability to Give Consent-When counseling minors, incapacitated adults, or other persons unable to give voluntary consent, counselors seek the assent of clients to services and include them in decision making as appropriate. Counselors recognize the need to balance the ethical rights of clients to make choices, their capacity to give consent or assent to receive services, and parental or familial legal rights and responsibilities to protect these clients and make decisions on their behalf.)

(B.5.b. Responsibility to Parents and Legal Guardians–Counselors inform parents and legal guardians about the role of counselors and the confidential nature of the counseling relationship, consistent with current legal and custodial arrangements. Counselors are sensitive to the cultural diversity of families and respect the inherent rights and responsibilities of parents/guardians regarding the welfare of their children/charges according to law. Counselors work to establish, as appropriate, collaborative relationships with parents/guardians to best serve clients.)

Literature Writing: Passing

And then look at these discussion questions below. Choose one of them, include the question so I know what you are responding to, and answer the question fully, quoting from the text for support. This should be at least 2 pages in length. MLA formatted

Questions: (REMEMBER TO PICK ONE)

  • Passing is set in the 1920s, before the Supreme Court declared “separate but equal” facilities for nonwhites unconstitutional. What privileges is Irene Redfield denied as a black person? What do men and women gain by passing?
  • In Part One, Irene has tea with Gertrude and Clare, her two childhood friends. Compare the attitudes each woman has toward passing. To what degree does each pass for white?
  • Passing presents two women, Irene Redfield and Clare Kendry, who make very different choices yet whose lives intertwine in startling ways. Compare the characters of each. What are each woman’s strengths? Her weaknesses? What are each woman’s attitudes toward race? How do these attitudes influence the novel’s plot?
  • Compare different characters’ attitudes toward sexuality. For instance, in what ways are Irene’s and Clare’s thoughts on sex similar? How are they different? How might these attitudes be related to each character’s thoughts on race?
  • Passing functions as a metaphor with several layers of meaning. What are they? How do they relate to each other?
  • What are the female characters’ perspectives on motherhood?
  • What are Irene’s attitudes in terms of race? Are they any different from John Bellew’s?
  • What does the following passage mean?: “[Irene] was caught between two allegiances, different, yet the same. Herself. Her race. Race: The thing that bound and suffocated her. Whatever steps she took, or if she took none at all, something would be crushed. A person or the race. Clare, herself, or the race. Or, it might be all three.”

The purpose of this essay will be to demonstrate to me that you can argue effectively about literature. You should have a clear thesis statement that you then support with specific evidence throughout the rest of your essay. Your evidence will come from the text itself and from secondary sources as well. This essay is not a plot summary, response paper, book report, or explication. Instead, it is a persuasive analysis in which you enlighten the work of literature you are writing about.

You should assume that your reader is familiar with the literature you are discussing and address that reader accordingly.

The specific topic concerning literature is up to you, and the approach you use in your analysis will also be up to you. You are welcome to employ whatever analytical tools seem appropriate to your topic and to your interests. Your essay must deal with literature we are studying in this course. Look at the list I have given under “Course Paper texts”. You may discuss one or two works of literature but no more than two works. For example, you can write a comparative analysis of the female characters in “The Woman’s Swimming Pool” and “In Camera,” OR you can do an in-depth analysis on the role of desire in Mo Yan’s “The Old Gun”(it is up to you!).

You must have at least FOUR secondary sources. NO BLOCK QUOTATIONS (any quote that extends beyond 4 typed lines). These sources must be scholarly. Remember, you are in college and your writing must reflect scholarly thinking and presentation. This is not your weekly discussion board responses.

Papers should be double spaced, with 1” margin on the left and 1.5” margin on the right. Please use 12-point Times New Roman. Cite your sources according to MLA. You should have a minimum of FOUR outside sources. Do not use Internet sources unless the exact same source exists in a printed form and merely happens to be on-line in a full text version. Papers will be graded on the originality of argument, use and integration of textual evidence, development of detail, and mechanics of writing.

When I grade the paper, I will look for well thought-out thesis and support, idea development, organization and “flow” (logical transitions, topic sentences), clarity of expression (grammar and punctuation), and adherence to MLA formatting (Font, Spacing, Titles, Headings, In-text Citations, Documentation).

Word Limit: MINIMUM of 8-9 double-spaced pages (9th page will be Works Cited)

Address the question they still have about learning a second language. You do not necessarily need to provide them with an answer, but you may want to provide information related to what you have learned.



I believe that learning a second language can be a good thing, there is so many opportunities to be awarded by being bilingual. It is easy to learn a second language when you are young it comes more natural. Learning a second or third language when you are older is hard because you are use to the first one and learning can be difficult, it is possible but harder.

When a teacher who has a student, who does not know English they feel pressure because they have a hard time teaching, they must work hard to make sure the Spanish speaking child understand. By the child’s second year of school rather it is preschool or first grade or higher the child is then experienced and have learned how to understand and speak most things, not everything, but most things needed to continue learning English. English is the hardest language to learn and Spanish is easy and fun to learn.

Ways to support children and families in learning a second language could range from hanging posters in the classroom and reading bilingual stories at story time. You could have stories about children coming to a new school who don’t speak English. Learn about their culture and share information and all the new child to talk about his/her experiences. On holidays ask the child to share about his/her culture. Sing songs and dance this usually makes children comfortable and then if you get them comfortable by acting silly they will be excited and eager to learn and will not be scared that there learning a new language. Have toys in the classroom that are biracial and share the culture associated with the toys.

I have seen firsthand how when a Spanish speaking child first attends school they do have trouble and making friends can also help. They might not understand each other at first but by repeating and putting words (sounds) and actions together they soon realize hey maybe that means we are going outside to play, or maybe that is what lunchtime means. Teachers and students together help learning a second language at school helpful.

Annotated Bibliography, philosophy homework help

/in /by

INSTRUCTIONS:

Submit an annotated Bibliography on the topic of your Course Project. Be sure to include at least nine sources that have not previously used. The majority of your selections should be peer reviewed academic sources.

Conduct independent research and locate articles (the majority should be peer-reviewed) relevant to your chosen topic for the course project. Select sources that enable you to analyze your topic from these three vantage points:

  1. Sources that discuss key terms or concepts used in religious studies and how these key terms or concepts limit or enables the study of religion.
  2. Sources that describe characteristics and applications of religion.
  3. Sources that describe the function of religion in the lives of individuals.

Your annotated bibliography should do the following:

  • Summarize the source: What are the main arguments? What is the point of this book or article? What topics are covered? If someone asked what this article or book is about, what would you say? The length of your annotations will determine how detailed your summary is.
  • Assess the source: After summarizing a source, it is helpful to evaluate it. Is it a useful source? How does it compare with other sources in your bibliography? Is the information reliable? Is this source biased or objective? What is the goal of this source?
  • Reflect on the source: Once you have summarized and assessed a source, you need to ask how it fits into your research. Was this source helpful to you? How does it help you shape your argument? How can you use this source in your research project? Has it changed how you think about your topic?

Additional Instructions:

Please choose a topic for the annotated bibliography based on the information you see above. I will also submit an assignment for review, so that it will help you come up with a topic. Do not reuse the sources within the given assignment. Please use 9 new scholarly or peer reviewed sources.

Special Instructions:

Come up with a topic for the Annotated Bibliography and follow all the instructions accordingly. Be sure to base your topic from the given assignment below.

Case Study 1: Impetus of the DHS
Due Week 2 and worth 50 points

Prior to the 9/11 attacks, there were a number of other “terrorist”

events that occurred on both U.S. soil and abroad. Read the article

discussing the Oklahoma City bombing, located at https://www.fbi.gov/history/famous-cases/oklahoma-…and the article discussing the 1993 World Trade Center bombings, located at http://www.fbi.gov/news/stories/2008/february/tradebom_022608.

These events, however, did not have the impact on the American psyche

and the political repercussions that accompanied the 9/11 attacks, such

as the creation of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS). A Webpage

dedicated to the creation of the DHS is located at http://www.dhs.gov/creation-department-homeland-security.

Write a two to four (2-4) page paper in which you:

  1. Describe
    why the 9/11 attacks was the impetus for forming the Department of
    Homeland Security and raising greater awareness of terrorist attacks.
  2. Hypothesize why the Oklahoma City and 1993 World Trade Center bombings did not cause the dramatic impact as that of 9/11.
  3. Predict
    how these two (2) historical attacks could have potentially been
    diminished or avoided with the protections in place today.
  4. Use
    at least three (3) quality resources in this assignment. Note: Wikipedia
    and similar Websites do not qualify as quality resources.

Your assignment must follow these formatting requirements:

  • Be
    typed, double spaced, using Times New Roman font (size 12), with
    one-inch margins on all sides; citations and references must follow APA
    or school-specific format. Check with your professor for any additional
    instructions.
  • Include a cover page containing the title of the
    assignment, the student’s name, the professor’s name, the course title,
    and the date. The cover page and the reference page are not included in
    the required assignment page length.

The specific course learning outcomes associated with this assignment are:

  • Describe the foundations of homeland security.
  • Use technology and information resources to research issues in homeland security.
  • Write
    clearly and concisely about topics related to Homeland Security
    Organization and Administration using proper writing mechanics and
    technical style conventions.
