...Statistical analysis of hamilton county court system 1994-1996 Summary of purpose On Sunday January 11th 1998 The Enquirer of Cincinnati Ohio released an article by Kristen Delguzzi entitled, “Courtroom errors undermine justice.” This report summarizes and ranks each court and judges’ ruling in Hamilton County from 1994 to 1996. Each Judge is ranked on frequency of having a ruling appealed and the frequency of handing down an unlawful judgement. These rankings are subdivided into quartiles of how accurate each judge was in their ruling, the higher the ranking the more accurate that particular judge was. This study found that older judges were making the majority of the mistakes. After 28 years judge William Morrissey retired in 1996, however, in the three years prior he had 22 reversals. Judge William S. Mathews a veteran judge of 27 years had 18 reversals in a two year time span. While the two newest Judges Beth Mattingly and James Patrick had only one reversal apiece in 1996. Experts have pointed to burnout of the judges being the lead cause to judicial mistakes.

Facts The incumbent president Federalist John Adams was defeat in the presidential election by Democratic-Republican Thomas Jefferson. The day before leaving office, President John Adams named forty-two justices of the peace and sixteen new circuit court justices for the District of Columbia. This was an attempt by the Federalists to take control of the federal judiciary before Thomas Jefferson took office. The commissions were signed by President Adams and sealed by acting Secretary of State John Marshall but they were not delivered before the expiration of Adams’s term as president. Thomas Jefferson refused to honor the commissions, claiming that they were invalid because they had not been delivered by the end of Adams’s term. William Marbury (Plaintiff) was an intended recipient of an appointment as justice of the peace. Marbury applied directly to the Supreme Court of the United States for a writ of mandamus to compel Jefferson’s Secretary of State, James Madison (Defendant), to deliver the commissions. The Judiciary Act of 1789 had granted the Supreme Court original jurisdiction to issue writs of mandamus “…to any courts appointed, or persons holding office, under the authority of the United States.” Ironically, John Marshall later became Chief Justice of the Supreme Court and...

...Many landmark cases in the United States are still being referred to by courts today. One of those cases is the Marbury v. Madison court case. The case established that the judicial department has absolute power to review any laws passed in the country and determine whether they comply with the U.S. Constitution. This essay will present a short overview of the case and discuss its importance. The Marbury v. Madison court case is one of the oldest and most important court cases in the United States. The case dates back to 1801 when President Adams recommended 52 candidates for different positions in judicial offices at the very end of his presidential term (Ray 210). These nominations were a last-minute move to prevent the next President, Jefferson, from filling the available positions with the loyalists of his party. Although most of the nominees were granted positions in various judicial offices, several commissions were not delivered. After the inauguration of Jefferson, the undelivered commissions were disregarded completely (Ray 210). Therefore, President Jefferson’s decision not to allow the commissions of Adams’s appointees to be delivered led to the Marbury v. Madison court case. This prompted the appointed candidates to appeal to the Supreme Court for their commissions to be delivered (Ray 210)....

Andrew, Ph.D., M CIP, RPP Robert Sutherland Hall, Room 525 john.andrew@queensu.ca 613-533-6000 ext. 75756 Session Time: Mondays, 11:30 am - 2:20 pm Session Room: Robert Sutherland Hall, Room 554 Overview of the Course The course is an introduction to the concepts, principles and analytical methods involved in making the broad variety of key investment decisions regarding commercial real estate. It is designed to supplement, rather than replace SURP 844: Real Estate Project Planning. Therefore, the emphasis of this course is on commercial real estate investment rather than development. However, some elements of the latter will inevitably be addressed. The focus will be on fullyoperational income-generating properties, primarily large in scale. The main asset types of office, industrial, retail and multi-unit residential will be discussed (and possibly a few more specialized types). Another emphasis of the course will be on the micro level – the evaluation of the investment merits of individual properties (or at least individual transactions). Less attention will be paid to the macro level i.e. portfolio management. To the extent possible, the course content (including readings, cases and assignments) will be Canadian (although it is recognized that real estate investment is increasingly a global endeavor). This is primarily a combination seminar and case study course. It is designed around a cornerstone of five...

...Ethically Responsible and Irresponsible News Reporting By Michael Rapuano June 01, 2015 COM/450 Ethics and Communication Instructor John Rothfork Ethically Responsible and Irresponsible News Reporting Journalists and publishers have an unspoken ethical responsibility when reporting the news or any topic of interest. The journalists, publishers, television newscasters, and anyone else reporting information to the public should be guided by an internal moral compass that steers them towards the truth. This is to say that their first and foremost commitment needs to be to the reporting the truth from reliable sources (Principles of journalism, 2015). Getting the story out there first should be secondary to the truth and not so much as a main concern but it often is for struggling or rookie journalists. “Scooping” the other reporter helps to get their name out there and become more prominently known while building their reputation. This can sometimes cloud their judgment and reporting skills and allow erroneous information to get by them and become part of their report. Ethically responsible reporting A journalist who acts responsibly is acting in the best interest of the general public. They will research their topic and verify that their sources are credible. The journalist will verify both confidential and publicly known sources to ensure their information is accurate and they are who they say are (Principles of journalism, 2015). There a lot of people in today’s...

...defined as “the power of the Supreme Court to declare unconstitutional federal or state laws and other acts of government (Schmidt, Shelley & Bardes, 2012, p. 39). The power of judicial review is perceived as an alternate method of changing and adjusting the U.S. Constitution (Schmidt, Shelley & Bardes, 2012, p. 39). Accordingly, in 1803, the landmark Supreme Court case of Marbury v. Madison established judicial review and was a principal factor in initiating the Supreme Court as an equal branch of government along with the executive and legislative branches (Landmark Cases – Marbury v. Madison (1803), 2006). The facts of Marbury v. Madison involve President John Adams naming 42 justices of the peace on his final day in office, he signed the commissions and they were sealed by Secretary of State John Marshall but not delivered before the president’s term ended, which provided grounds for the new president, Thomas Jefferson, to refuse to honor the justice of the peace commissions on the basis that they were invalid (Marbury v. Madison – Case Brief Summary, 2013). Furthermore, the major issues of the case were if William Marbury had the right to the commission, did the law permit a solution for...
