Law

 In your own words, what is the Constitution? To you, what does it say about the rights of people? Note: Be careful, because it is not obvious what “rights” are really in the Constitution and it would be a mistake to use that stuff “everybody knows,” because it is technically insufficient and often incorrect. Rather than taking on the whole landscape, choose four “rights” and give specific evidence that it is a right and from where this right emanates. Be sure what you choose truly addresses granting rights to the people specifically and not rights that you think are implied by the wording.

ALL WORK MUST BE ORIGINAL, CITED IN APA FORMAT & WILL BE SUBMITTED TO TURN IT IN. THIS IS A DISCUSSION QUESTION. DUE DATE IS 09/06/20 @ 10 AM EASTERN STANDARD TIME. TIME NON-NEGOTIABLE. QUESTION: The presumption level of DUI was initially set at .10 mg/dL, but over the past few years, most jurisdictions have dropped that level to .08 mg/dL.

You are a legal assistant at a law firm in California. A new client, Gemini Saturn, came to the law firm a week ago with a possible medical malpractice case. Two years and 10 months ago, Gemini had undergone surgery on her knee for ongoing knee pain. The surgery initially seemed to be a success. However, about 6 months after the surgery, she started feeling pain throughout her leg that gradually became more and more difficult for her to endure. She consulted a physician about the pains, but he could not determine the cause or relieve the pain. Eight months ago, a new doctor discovered that that the severe leg pain was the result of her knee surgery, and that the surgeon had made a severe mistake during the operation. Initially, Gemini did not consider pursuing a medical malpractice claim, but as her symptoms worsened, she decided to consult your law firm. The lead attorney, Aries Neptune, asks you to do some initial research to investigate the possible medical malpractice claim. He tells you to look at the California state code and find the elements of a claim for medical malpractice, as well as the statute of limitations for medical malpractice – California Code of Civil Procedure section 340.5. He thinks the statute of limitations is 3 years for filing a medical malpractice claim but would like you to confirm, in order to advise the client on whether her action can be filed within the statute of limitations. The lead attorney also tells you that he is fairly certain that there is a requirement that the plaintiff give the respondent 90-days’ notice of intent to sue before filing the claim, and that could pose a problem for filing the client’s claim within the statute of limitations. He asks you to look up a case, Russell v. Stanford, decided in the California Supreme Court in 1997, because he thinks the case will help address this issue. Then, he asks you to write a letter to the client, summarizing your findings regarding 1) the elements of medical malpractice; 2) the statute of limitations, and 3) whether the 90-day requirement for notice to sue will prevent the client from being able to file the lawsuit within the statute of limitations. Note: While specific dates for a client’s facts were not included in this assignment scenario, you can write specific dates in your letter that are consistent with the timeline presented here.

Does it go all the way up to the Supreme Court? Questions IV – During the course of a divorce proceeding, the judge orders the husband and wife to attempt to settle their custody dispute through the mediation process.  During the course of the mediation, the husband tells the mediator that he has secretly been selling marijuana to their children’s friends.  Ultimately, the mediation breaks down and the parties cannot come to a settlement.  During the divorce trial, can the wife introduce the mediator’s testimony as evidence?ASSIGNMENT 2 Describe a decision that you or your company made that involved opportunity costs that should have been considered.

The introduction should set the stage, establish the environment, set out the nature of the problem. You should consider that you are establishing the context within which your problem exists. You must have an in-text citation to substantiate your introduction. The case analysis assignment requires you to identify and isolate just one problem. This problem should be well developed, where did it come from, why is it able to exist? What conditions and/or factors caused it or contributed to it? Your problem statement is the common thread that you weave throughout your analysis, everything must be connected to your problem. You must have an in-text citation to substantiate your problem statement. The significance of the problem is the result of the problem not being solved. You need to indicate what will happen if your problem is not addressed or fixed. This is your opportunity to tell management they need to do dedicate appropriate resources to fix the problem. You need in-text citations to substantiate the significance of your problem. Alternative actions are corrective actions based upon the textbook and/or magazine/journal article and/or other sources you are using. You need two alternative actions, each much have reason or rationale, and two advantages and two disadvantages. Here again, an in-text citation must be used to substantiate your alternative courses of action. The recommendation must be separate and distinctly different than either alternative action. You should consider what you would do to correct the problem if you had unlimited resources. The recommendation must have reason or rationale, one advantage, and one disadvantage. And, the in-text citation must be used to substantiate your recommendation. A reference list (in accordance with the Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association) must be compiled based solely upon the sources you used to substantiate your analyses.
