    4rth Amendment

    The case present before us involves the constitutionality of a dog sniff in regards to the 4rth Amendment. The respondent claims that the police officer, a representative of the State of Florida lacked probable cause to search the vehicle. The dog used in the operation, Aldo was not reliable since his detector certification had expired. Also, the officer did not maintain a record of his field performance alerts. As a result, the respondent contends that Aldo’s alert was false thereby diminishing the validity of probable cause. On the other hand, the State of Florida counters by arguing that probable cause is a flexible common sense standard and requires only a fair probability and not hard certainties. Moreover, the officer who had trained with the dog is the best judge of the dog’s credibility as opposed to the Court’s especially since law enforcement agencies act with good faith. Consequently, defense counsel moved to suppress the physical evidence as the product of a warrantless search without probable cause. The trial court denied the motion to suppress but made no findings. The respondent then appealed to the Florida First District Court of Appeal. They affirmed. Harris v. State, 989 So. 2d 1214 (Fla. 1st DCA 2008). The Florida Supreme Court quashed the lower court decision. Harris v. State, 71 So. 3d 756 (Fla. 2011). The Court scrutinized the case under the totality of the circumstances test established in Illinois v. Gates, 462 U.S. 213 (1983) and concluded that Aldo’s reliability, was not enough to demonstrate probable cause.…

It established America’s national government and guaranteed certain basic rights for its citizens. However, it wasn’t working as planned so it had to be ratified.

    14 amendment

    In school, as well as throughout our daily lives, we learn in America to live by the idea of freedom and equality for all. We do not allow race, class, or creed to determine a person’s stature in the community. It may seem as if this is the standard of society, but these ideas of equality have been fought over since the beginning of written history, and even in America today, prejudice still exists. To address these and similar problems, the founding fathers of this nation created a Constitution which included laws that dealt with individual freedoms. However great the founding fathers envisioned the United States Constitution, it did not form a perfect union and justice for all. America would have to amend, or add to, the Constitution in order to serve its constituents better. The most powerful constitutional act towards equality would come with the fourteenth amendment. This amendment permanently changed constitutional law by empowering the Federal government’s jurisdiction to include local and state governments which would be required to abide by new standards of civil rights and privileges.…

    18th amendment

    To drink or no? Ever since the first people stumbled across alcohol (and then each other) this has been a question commonly asked. Statistics show that a majority of domestic violence, automobile accidents, and rape, all involve (many times) alcohol. Whether one thinks consumption is "right" or not has been asked by people for people from time to time. This would be the case of the 18th Amendment of 1919.…

    Why? You have two distinct advantages in the House that you don't have in the Senate: (1) you are a senior and respected member, and (2) a block of House members already supports the amendment. If you succeed in the House, your odds of also succeeding in the Senate are increased because the House vote may convince many skeptical senators.…

    The Importance Of Amendment Number Four

    In addition, we then went over a few amendments. One of the Amendments that I was surprised to learn about was Amendment number four. Amendment number four is specifically directed the government and law enforcement. It's telling the government that they can't have unreasonable searches, and seizures. I was shocked becuase the Constitution, Bill of rights and other important documents are all focused on what society can and cannot do and the fourth amendment's is not geared to us (society) but towards the govt in order for them to not abuse their power. So basically, the Fourth Amendment tells the government if they want a warrant , here’s whats required…

    Third Amendment In The Bill Of Rights

    The Third Amendment in the Bill of Rights was a crucial addition to the Ten Amendments because it states “No soldier shall, in a time of peace be quartered in any house, without the consent of the Owner, nor in time of war, but in a manner to be prescribed by law.” The Amendment was added in order to prevent a recurrence of the Quartering Act issued upon the colonies by Britain in 1765 mandating colonists to supply soldiers with housing. Additionally, during the Revolutionary War British soldiers took the homes of colonists and persisted receiving food, water, and shelter. Moreover, the Amendment also protects one's right to privacy by having the owner’s consent before entering their property. Nevertheless, Alexander Hamilton, a steadfast Federalist opposed the Bill of Rights thinking it would harm their liberty.…
