Mississippi Rule Of Civil Procedure Summary
Discovery is the pretrial process of finding facts about the case.

Summary Judgment is a judgment made by a court, without a trial, when there is no further factual information to be established.

Mississippi Rules of Civil Procedure include Rule 37. Failure to Make or Cooperate in Discovery: Sanctions. First the court may compel an answer. If that does not work they may be considered in contempt of court, and may be sanctioned by the court. If the answer is incomplete, it will be considered as failure to answer. Rule 37 also states that if there is no answer the discovering party may move for an order to compel an answer, designation, or inspection in agreement with request.

    Missouri V. Frye Case Brief

    A recent criminal Supreme Court case that I find to be interesting is Missouri v. Frye. Actus reus is a guilty act, mens rea is a guilty mind, and concurrence is the equality of rights. Both actus reus and mens rea are both needed in order for a defendant to prove criminal liability. This case was about a guy named Frye, he was arrested for driving with a revoked license. Frye was previously arrested a few times before this incident dealing with the same crime. Missouri state law can give you a maximum sentence of up to four years when arrested three times for driving on a revoked license. The prosecutor sent Frye's counsel a letter that offered two possible plea bargains. If he was to plea guilty the charge could be reduced to a misdemeanor…

    Missouri v McNeely

    A Missouri police officer stopped Tyler McNeely after observing it exceeding the posted speed limit and repeatedly crossing the center line. The officer noticed McNeely’s bloodshot eyes, his slurred speech, and a smell of alcohol on his breath. McNeely performed poorly on a battery of field sobriety tests, and he declined to take a Breathalyzer test. When McNeely indicated he refuse a breath sample for testing, the officer took him to a nearby hospital for blood alcohol test. The officer explained to McNeely that under Missouri’s implied consent law, refusal to submit voluntarily to the blood test would lead to an immediate one-year suspension of his driver’s license and could be used against him in any future prosecution. The testing of the blood indicated that the blood alcohol level was significantly above the legal limit. McNeely had challenged the blood test evidence claiming that there should have been a search warrant before ordering a blood sample.…

    Dred Scott V. Sandford Case Study

    When Europeans began colonizing in the New World, there was a large amount of work to do and very few workers to get the job done. While there were indentured servants paying their way to America in exchange for work, it was not enough. To solve this problem, Dutch ships began loading Africans against their will onto a boat to be slaves in the New World. This later became known as the Atlantic Slave Trade. After the American Revolution, slavery became less and less profitable especially in the North. Once the cotton gin was invented, more labor to work the fields in the South was needed. This made the American economy dependent upon slavery. There was much debate about the ethics of slavery and many thought it to be wrong. In 1857, the United States Supreme Court case of “Dred Scott v. Sandford” took place that changed America as we know it. This case brought up the issues of slavery and the future of the US. It brought to light the important responsibility politicians have in making important decisions that can affect the future. A…
