...State of Minnesota V. Othoudt Research Paper Bradley Peters Applied Procedures / LAWE-2260 Professor Schwint 15 October, 2014 Introduction Under the Supreme Court’s decision in Minnesota V. Othoudt, law enforcement officers may not enter or conduct warrantless searches of residences, without consent. Moreover, the police may enter a dwelling, without a warrant, to make a felony arrest if they have probable cause and or exigent circumstances. In this case, if the circumstances of the accident scene had given Deputy Olmanson probable cause to arrest respondent for the offenses he was later charged with, those offenses were charged as misdemeanors (STATE V. OTHOUDT). As of this writing, neither the Minnesota Supreme Court nor the United States Supreme Court has ever held that exigent circumstances would permit a warrantless entry into a home to arrest for an offense of this level (State of Minnesota, Respondent, vs. James Howard Klein, 2014). Cases such as this one could possibly jeopardize the privacy protections offered by the Fourth Amendment and create the potential for abusive police practices (Cars, Cops, and Crooks: A Reexamination of Belton and Carroll ). An attempt to expound upon the effects of failing to obtain consent to make a warrantless search of a dwelling is explored. Case Brief: State v. Othoudt, 482 N.W.2d 218 (Minn. 1992) * STATEMENT OF THE CASE: This case is an appeal by the State of Minnesota of the trial courts findings of the state’s warrantless...

...A study on China and the World Economy of Today: A look at the impact of China’s Global economic integration and Prices. Chapter one: Introduction 1.1 Introduction Since 1978, the People’s Republic of China (PRC) government has stood out in restructuring its economy from a Soviet-style centrally planned economy towards a market-oriented economy nonetheless within the political framework, provided by the Communist Party of China. This system has been called "Socialism with Chinese characteristics" and is one type of mixed economy. “These reforms started since 1978 has helped lift millions of people out of poverty, bringing the poverty rate down from 53% of population in 1981 to 8% by 2001” (OECD 2002a). Over the preceding decades, the existence of China in the world’s economy is full-fledged. Laterally, China is properly or erroneously seen to have a massive impact on the world’s economy. In today’s trade market, China is at present generally regarded to be the world’s workspace, there-by relocating some traditional exporters of labor-intensive goods, irrespective of the fact that its economy is constantly woven into the fabric of progressive split chain of making (Menzie D.2009). The emergence of China as an industrial and export livewire is undoubtedly one of the most significant forces reshaping the present-day world economy. Barry E and Hui T in 2005 stated that “A now standard way of conveying this point is to observe that the increase in employment...

...INVESTMENT BANKING Submitted to Prof. Vaibhav Banjan Group members- Kunal Tambe Diptesh Mayur Prasad Dube Kunal Sharma I. INVESTMENT BANKING: Investment banking, or I-banking, as it is often called, is the term used to describe the business of raising capital for companies and advising them on financing and merger alternatives. Capital essentially means money. Companies need cash in order to grow and expand their businesses; investment banks sell securities to public investors in order to raise this cash. Generally, the breakdown of an investment bank includes the following areas: * Corporate finance The bread and butter of a traditional investment bank, corporate finance generally performs two different functions: 1) Mergers and acquisitions advisory and 2) Underwriting. On the mergers and acquisitions (M&A) advising side of corporate finance, bankers assist in negotiating and structuring a merger between two companies. If, for example, a company wants to buy another firm, then an investment bank will help finalize the purchase price, structure the deal, and generally ensure a smooth transaction. The underwriting function within corporate finance involves shepherding the process of raising capital for a company. In the investment banking world, capital can be raised by selling stocks or bonds (as well as some more exotic securities) to investors. * Sales: Sales are another core component of any investment bank. Salespeople take the form of: 1) the classic...

...SID 1223384 A PROPOSAL TO EVALUATE THE IMPACT THAT FOREIGN AID HAS HAD ON DEVELOPMENT IN KENYA RESEARCH STUDIES MOD001774 SHIRLEY JONES SID 1223384 FACULTY OF HEALTH, SOCIAL CARE AND EDUCATION 2012/13 1 SID 1223384 ABSTRACT The aim of this study is to evaluate the impact of foreign aid on development in Kenya. The study will investigate the effect that foreign aid has had on development, appraising its benefits as well as exposing its shortcomings. Judging from the level of aid that the developing world receives and the economic development that takes place in third world countries, there appears to be an inverse relationship between aid and development. With this continuing debate, my interest of study has been to find out foreign aid’s impact to development in Kenya as it is dependent of aid but poverty still seems impossibility in the country for many decades. Therefore, the study will seek to expose these pitfalls of foreign assistance to a nation’s growth and development, using the Kenyan example to illustrate this relationship. The prevailing research methodology shall be of a qualitative positivist nature. Debates still exist around foreign aid dependency and economic development in the “Third World” countries as despite the input from developed countries there hasn’t been much change witnessed in the developing nations which are still drowning in poverty since 1960’s. The study will highlight on the demerit of excess foreign aid has development whereby...

...------------------------------------------------- Corporate Governance Case Study: British Petroleum Submitted by: Vanés Cassells Introduction In the words of Ramo (2009, p.8), “We are now at the start of what may become the most dramatic change in global order in several centuries... What we are facing isn’t one single shift... as much as an avalanche of ceaseless change... creating unprecedented disruption and dislocation.” Given that a crisis normally occurs without prior warning, it is therefore imperative that certain measures and procedures are put in place that can expedite a cure and thereby reduce the impact so that normality can be restored. For there to be effective crisis management, a robust risk management structure must be instituted within the organisation and must form an integral part of the ongoing corporate governance monitoring framework. A company should learn from previous incidents and incorporate preventative as well as curative measures into any risk assessment. The risk oversight function of the board has gained immense importance in the last few years, mainly due to the collapse of the financial sector in 2008. Today, risk management has become even more critical and challenging. Companies are now confronted with risks that are more complex, interconnected and potentially devastating than ever before. BP’s ostensible lack of consideration for the risks involved in exploration drilling contributed to large-scale disasters which, in turn...
