Mondale V. Martin's Case
Defense Attorney Paul Peters, of Columbia, informed jurors that his evidence will demonstrate that Mondale is innocent of the charges and would fit well as a coach in any small town.
“Frank Mondale is the type of coach who uses coaching to instruct on life,” he said. “We're going to tell you what really went on. You’ll get a feel for what it’s like being a coach.”
The state’s testimony will begin at 9 tomorrow morning. Both victims will testify at the trial, Smith said.

    Connecticut V. Cardwell Case Study

    4)The case we read in class that I enjoyed the most was State of Connecticut v. Cardwell. I primarily liked it because it best exemplifies the difference and complexity regarding the sale of goods and the helps reflect the distinction between a “shipment” and “destination” contracts. I disagree with the trial courts judgment that Cardwell sold tickets within Connecticut and thereby violated Connecticut statute. However, I agree with the judgment of the court after the appeal. The transfer of goods occurred in Massachuestes, therefore the sale of the tickets, as defined by the code, occurred in Massachusts.…

    Clark V. Gore's Conviction: The Clark Case

    At the time of Dena Lynn Gore’s murder, Clark was out on bond awaiting appeal for a previous conviction. Clark was also facing charges for the abduction and rape of a six-year-old girl, however, sentencing had been postponed until after the trial for Gore’s murder. In his appeal, Clark stated that the courts erred in not sentencing him for his previous conviction prior to trying him on capital felony charges. Clark argues that the sentence he would have received for the first offense would have been a mitigating factor for the jury when tasked with determining Clark’s punishment. Had the jury been made aware that the cumulative sentencing for all convictions would have been enough to keep him imprisoned for life and with no possibility of…

    Supreme Court Case: Branzburg V. Hayes

    Branzburg v. Hayes was the only ever supreme court case to deal with reporter’s privilege. The ruling of this case was that reporter’s had no right to hide their sources in a court case. The chief justice at the time,Warren Burger, made a point that reporters, “like other citizens, [must] respond to relevant questions put to them in the course of a valid grand jury investigation or criminal trial (Fargo,2010).” With a decision that was five for and four against, this case was not an open and shut many thought it to be. Calling into play a look at the first amendment and what it really means when it says the freedom of speech. Interpreting a document that is more than two hundred years old is not an easy task to accomplish, having to combine…

    Marbury Vs. Madison Case

    The case I briefed was the Marbury vs Madison case. The issue prosecuted was does Marbury have a right to the commission? Does the law grant Marbury a remedy? Does the Supreme Court have the authority to review acts of congress and determine whether they are unconstitutional and therefore void? Can congress expand the scope of the supreme courts original jurisdiction beyond what is specified in article III of the constitution, and lastly does the Supreme Court have original jurisdiction to issue units of mandamus. .…

    Supreme Court Issues: The Mapp V. Ohio Case

    “The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated,” Mapp V. Ohio (1961) dealt with that very sentence of the constitution. Were the officers at fault or Mapp? This complex question has a complex answer one that puzzled the Supreme Court and led to a change in criminal procedure. The verdict was a strict interpretation of the constitution. The fourth amendment was relevant because the fourteenth amendment grunted due process. It was a very good decision, it protected the black minority who at the time were being routinely harassed and convicted for no reasons. This decision certainly did not stop that but it made it harder…

    Response Summary of High School Basketball Coach

    The article “High school Basketball Coach” James R. in gig, 2001 describes how much the coach loves instructing basketball at a Catholic high school in Pennsylvania. He says that his recruiting efforts have to be extremely discreet and that the school’s athletic director told him to never get caught recruiting players. The coach brags that he has never been caught and does not expect to be caught. Moreover, he never sends letters, leaving no paper trail and is never too obvious about recruiting, but openly admits that he is extremely aggressive. In addition, the other coaches despise him and his recruiting practices, but never launch formal complaints. In fact, according to Coach James R., he lost his lifelong friend because of a kid from an opposing school came to him after a game, to ask him about the Catholic school in which he coached. Furthermore, his basic strategy is to scout players at basketball camps, summer leagues, and other high schools and at the same time, he approaches a player’s parent and asks them if they ever considered Catholic school. Coach James R. states that he even flipped out at a parent when he discovered that his recruiting efforts had failed to attract a talented eighth grader. To summarize, Coach James R. is so focused on winning that in the summers he coaches his team for free and works at camps for very little pay. He does this in hopes of finding new players to recruit and he even said he is so dedicated he doesn’t even have time for a girlfriend. He attributes his winning career to his unwavering dedication and sees no point to coaching if one is not going to be fully dedicated to winning.…

    George Will V. Coleman

    George Will, granted he did have plenty of evidence to support his proposition, did not present his findings clearly enough in my opinion, but rather lost me at some points. Fortunately, he was still able to grab my attention with the statistics and factual data that supported the Coleman report. This previous school year, I was in the AP Psychology course that Mckeel offers, and from what I learned in that class I believe that the family status of a child has more effect on how they do in school. Coleman's report has been seen as fact for the past five decades, so I don't imagine Will's article not being embraced by society now.…

    Warren Court In The 1960's

    The 1960’s was an evolution of change in American history. When Earl Warren became Chief Justice of Supreme Court in 1953 it made the most dramatic changes and held a far more liberal view than any other Supreme Court before. Some of its most important rulings were on African-American civil liberties. The Supreme Court changed American law on segregation in schools, criminal procedure, and privacy rights. Before the Warren Court the American law treated blacks as second class citizens, and by the end of Justice Warren's term racial equality was inevitable.…

    Regan V Carter

    The election of 1980 was a key turning point in American politics. To present day, American’s still have strong feelings and opinions about their former President, Jimmy Carter. The result from the 1980 election, led to the appointment of Ronald Reagan as the 40th President of the United States of America, and the Republicans gained control of the Senate for the first time in twenty-five years. There are several reasons behind the animosity of American’s towards Jimmy Carter at the time and in present day. Ronald Reagan and the Republican Party were preferred over President Carter and the Democratic Party due to international and domestic issues that were occurring at the time of the 1980 election. The international issues were centred round the Iran Hostage situation, the Panama Canal Treaties and President Carter’s actions towards the Soviet Government. On the home front, the President was under scrutiny by the public due to his political pardons and his handling of the economy including high inflation rates and high unemployment. President Carter was also under scrutiny from conservative political and religious groups as to his ‘liberal’ policies that he had enacted during his term in office. In addition to the previous mentioned topics, the personality traits of Jimmy Carter were also examined during the 1980 election.…

    Great Basketball Coach

    Have you ever imagined not having a coach for your sports team? Or why your coach is so successful? Even though they are very demanding, they’re essential for any team’s success. “I demand a lot out of my players, but we have fun and I give them room to learn and make mistakes,” said Coach Mike Bates. They provide structure and are the heart and souls of each team. Coaches have to love the game. The team reflects the coach, if he’s successful so will you be. The coach needs to be disciplined and teach the fundamentals of the game. They should instill moral values into the team.…
