The Right To Die / Legal Issues & The Quinlan Case
(2 Pages, 23.9 $ (USD) )
|
|
The sociolegal controversy over an individual's right to die is one that has attempted to re-define death and to question when it actually occurs (i.e., brain death or heart death ?). This 2 page essay looks at the infamous Karen Quinlan case in which the Supreme Court granted Ms. Quinlan's family the right to let her die (ruling that "No compelling interest of the state could compel her to endure the unendurable") - but she continued to live on anyway after being removed from life-sustaining medical equipment. Bibliography lists 4 sources.

(5 Pages, 59.75 $ (USD) )
|
|
A 5 page paper discussing the implications of the Private Property Rights Implementation Act of 1997, which gave property owners claiming violation of their constitutional rights regarding the use of their land equal access to federal district court already enjoyed by anyone else making a similar claim for any reason but land use. Before the rule, it could take years for a property owner to be allowed access to federal court by state courts—one elderly lady spent six years and untold legal fees before 'winning' a Supreme Court case allowing her case to be heard in a federal district court.

McCloskey's 'The American Supreme Court'
(5 Pages, 59.75 $ (USD) )
|
|
A 5 page paper analyzing Robert McCloskey's book. Our nation was founded on the principles underlying fundamental laws that assure the rights of the people of the nation. The Supreme Court is charged with protecting those fundamental laws, but also with preserving popular sovereignty, which is the freedom under which we live. Because popular sovereignty is such an overriding factor in the justification of the Supreme Court, we likely will continue to have controversy stemming from the rights of the government versus the rights of the people.
