    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.…

    Parent V. Trenton Case Study

    Issues: In this scenario a student maintained residence in the town of Trenton, a community that does not have a high school. Students from this area are able to enrolled in Ellsworth or MDI high schools, however, due to behavioral issues the student was placed in a more restrictive environment in Bangor (Parent v. Trenton, 1999, p.2). During the spring of the 1998-1999 academic year the student returned home without “notifying the Trenton School Department of the student’s self initiated change in residency/educational placement” (Parent v. Trenton, 1999, p.2). The student was denied enrollment in both of the available high schools due to his/her intended date of enrollment, and failure to pass a background check (Parent v. Trenton, 1999, p.5). Interestingly, the issues addressed in this case do not consider the lawfulness of the schools’ denial for enrollment, but instead focused on Trenton School Department and if it sufficiently provided the student…

    Supreme Court Case: Terry V. Ohio

    Terry v. Ohio was a court decision made in 1968 that still affects how police conduct their operations to this day. This case gave special liberties to police officers which would otherwise be in conflict with the Fourth Amendment. The Fourth Amendment states " the right of the people to be secure in their persons, house, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizure, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the person or things to be seized. " The Supreme Court's decision allowing reasonable suspicion of a crime can be grounds for a search, even without probable cause.…

In adjudicating disagreements of alternative interpretations of a law the Supreme Court establishes policies which have implications extending beyond the specific case in question and into social policy at large.
