Jerry New House Case

I also feel that this case set an unwritten law that strip searches on school grounds are unlawful. This case not only made the public aware of specific guidelines involving strip searches but it also gave lower courts a set of guidelines to use for future cases involving these type of

On Monday July 22, 1965 Mary Beth Tinker and her siblings sat in front of a judge and jury to plead their case. Scared and shaking she sat next to her attorney trying to muster up bavery. Her brother, John, was the first to give his testimony. John testified that he had made it through several periods where none of his classmates or any of the faculty had said anything to him about the black armband. It was not until after lunch that John was asked to go to the principal 's office where he refused to remove his band and wass promptly removed from school.

The wore black armbands in a protest against the government policies during the Vietnam war. The Tinkers tries to fight the suspension with the district court but the district court was in favor with the school so the Thinkers had to take it further. The next step was to take it to the supreme court. The tinkers took it to the Supreme court and the majority vote wat that it was unconstitutional for the school to

15 Armbands Justice Abe Fortas and Justice Hugo Black are arguing if certain kinds of speech should or should not be prohibited in an educational setting. Justice Abe Fortas is arguing the majority opinion which says that speech should not be prohibited in an educational setting. The Justice says, “Undifferentiated fear or apprehension of disturbance is not enough to overcome the right of expression,” (4). This means that just because you think something will cause a disturbance and will be bad, that does not give one the right to ban freedom of expression.

In the case Brewer vs. Hamilton Middle School the Supreme Court had to decide if the school had the right to limit Ben Brewer’s first amendment right to free speech. The school had decided to add a rule to the school dress code to ban students from wearing T-shirts that depict musical groups. Ben came into school after the rule had been enacted wearing a T-shirt that depicted Hall of Rejects which is a musical group. He was given the option to flip the shirt inside out and refused to. Mr. Brewer was then given a week of in-school suspension.

In 1965 three students, John F. Tinker- 15 years old, Christopher Eckhardt- 16 years old, Mary Beth Tinker- 13-year-old, were suspend for wearing black armbands that supported hostilities in Vietnam and a truce. These three teens attended school through the Des Moines Independent School District. Parents of these student stood up and claimed a violation of their First Amendment right of freedom of speech. The armbands were an agreed about activity by a group of adult and students that meet in early December.

Summary of the fact of the case: Plaintiff Gregory D. Hanks enjoyed his vacation and went to snowtube with four children at Powder Ridge Ski Resort on February 16 2003, where is a place for ski, snowboard and snowtube. Neither the Plaintiff nor these four children had experiences of using snowtube at Powder Ridge Ski Resort. This facility was opened for all guests, but there were 2 restrictions of age and height that players at least 6 years old or 44 inches tall were allowed to participate. Furthermore, who wants to snowtube at Powder Ridge Ski Resort were asked to sign a “Waiver, Defense, Indemnity and Hold Harmless Agreement, and Release of Liability” (Agreement written by Powder Ridge, 2003). The Agreement declared that by signing this

The students were asked to remove the armbands by school officials and when the students refused they were suspended. The concern is that the students First Amendment Rights were violated, specifically their free speech. The Des Moines, IA school district argued that the students First Amendment Rights were not violated because their actions created a disruption to the school environment. The parents appealed the school district’s decision through each of the federal courts and ultimately, landed at the US Supreme court.

It was required that the student's parents be informed of the suspension within 24 hours with given reason. If the student were expelled, they would allowed to appeal to the Board of Education. The principal gave the students suspension without holding a hearing, it was okay because Ohio law did not make it required to do so. But they were also later expelled without a right to have due process. The federal courts believed that the students rights were being violated.

In 1969, the U.S. Supreme Court case Tinker v. Des Moines Independent Community School District upheld the right to freedom of speech of students to protest the Vietnam war by wearing black armbands. The case explained the problem that “students do not “shed their constitutional rights to freedom of speech or expression at the schoolhouse gate.” (Student) As students, we are free to express ourselves through what we wear. As students, we have every right to proclaim our beliefs

Students were found wearing armbands, and were told to remove them and proceeded to ignore the edict given by teachers. Pupils should not wear these armbands to school because they are disruptive, and we have recently found out that pupils are plotting against the school. Pupils are responsible for their actions and are (most of them) old enough to think for themselves so, as a result, we hold the pupils completely culpable, as long as it is the students effectuating the problem. A reason why students shouldn’t wear these armbands is that they have no apparent purpose other than to be a nuisance to the school, in addition to merely being there.

It was not a burden to anyone else. Armbands are a symbol, and they did not inflict their beliefs upon anyone. Forta stated that "the record fails to yield evidence that..." They only criticized a few of the students, and they did not do anything to the rest of them. Everyone that thinks that students should not wear armbands have good reasons.

INTRODUCTION In common sense the Law of Torts is that branch of law which aims at regulating the manner in which people behave in civil society. The law of tort covers a wide range of situations, including such diverse claims as those of a passenger injured in a road accident, a patient injured by a negligent doctor, a pop star libeled by a newspaper, a citizen wrongfully arrested by the police, and a landowner whose land has been trespassed on. As a result, it is difficult to pin down a definition of a tort; but, in broad terms, a tort occurs where there is breach of a general duty fixed by civil law.

The proprietor or individual possessing genuine property can be held subject if visitors are harmed on the property on account of the proprietor 's Negligence. A property proprietor by and large does not have the same obligation to make the premises alright for a trespasser, on the other hand. A trespasser accept the danger of being harmed by an unguarded removal, a wall unintentionally jolted by a falling wire, or a broken stair. The tenant of genuine property has an obligation just to forgo purposefully harming a trespasser on the premises.

The duty of care imposed by law is measured by the degree of carefulness that a reasonable person would exercise in a given situation. Duty to act is a person is under a duty to everyone at all times to exercise reasonable care for the safety and protection of the people and their property. However, in certain special cases, no one is required to aid another in risk. Factual cause is when the defendant’s actions are factual causes of the harm when the harm would not have occurred without such conducts, while scope of liability is a limited liability to those harms that result from risks that made the defendant’s actions tortious. Scope of liability is divided into two parts; foreseeability, which excludes liability for harms that were sufficiently unforeseeable at the time of the tortious act that were not among the risks that made the defendant negligent; and superseding cause, which is an intervening act that relieves the defendant of liability.
