Lambert Case: Lambert V. Barron Case
Lambert v. Barron Case
After analyzing Lambert v. Barron case, I concur with the court`s decision that there was no contract between Lambert and Barron. It is apparent in this case that the parties to this case are just friends. Before Lambert flew to Louisiana on 11th November 1998, indeed the two had conversed and Lambert even showed concern for his friend`s situation. Actually, this occurs with allies. Furthermore, at no time during or prior to the trip did Lambert and Barron discuss concerning compensation for the advice. It is imperative to note for a legal and binding contract to be formed, there must be an offer by the offeror, and acceptance by the offeree (Mallor, 2016, p.325). Nonetheless, the discussion pertaining to past consulting

    Gibbons V. Ogden Case Study

    The landmark case that opened up the ability for business to operate across state lines was Gibbons v. Ogden. The case started in 1809, when the Legislature of the State of New York granted exclusive navigation privileges of all boats that moved by fire or stream in the waters within the jurisdiction of the state, for twenty years, to Robert R. Livingston and Robert Fulton (Livingston). They wanted a monopoly on a national network of steamboat lines, but were unsuccessful in their pursuit. Only the Orleans Territory awarded them a monopoly on the lower Mississippi (Livingston).…

    Archers V. Warner: Court Case

    127 (1979), a case where Brown sued Felsen in state court for money allegedly obtained through fraud in which a consent decree was entered that stipulated that Felsen would pay Brown a specified amount but didn’t indicate the payment was for fraudulent actions. Felsen failed to pay and entered into bankruptcy; Brown asked that the debt be held nondischargeable because it was for money obtained by fraud. The Supreme Court in that case held that claim preclusion did not prevent the Bankruptcy Court from looking beyond the record of the state court proceeding and the stipulation and consent judgment to decide whether the debt was for money obtained by fraud. In its new Archer ruling, the Supreme Court states that the Brown holding is…

    Barber V Superior Court

    Barber v. Superior Court deals with two Doctors who removed life support from a man who was in a vegetative state with very little chance of surviving the ordeal. The main question is if the two petitioners legally speaking actually killed the man when they took off his life support. By definition, murdering is “the unlawful killing of a human being, with malice aforethought.” California Law states that Euthanasia is “neither justifiable nor excusable in California.” Euthanasia by definition is “The act or practice of killing someone who is very sick or injured in order to prevent any more suffering” (Merriam-Webster). The question that matters is whether the Doctor’s removal of life support counts as committing an act in accordance with the definitions and laws stated above.…

    Wolff V. Mcdonnell

    The criminal justice system realizes that inmates do have some rights, however it is also recognized that those inmates do have less rights than free citizens. Taking away some rights of the inmates is a valid punishment and by restricting these rights it helps in maintaining security in prisons. The title of the case that I chose was Wolff v. McDonnell. This case was very important because it uniformed certain rights and freedoms within correctional facilities. “Although inmates received some procedural safe-guards to protect them against the notorious abuses of disciplinary meetings, they did not receive all the due- process rights of a criminal trial” (Clemens, 2002). Nor did the Court question the right of correctional officials to revoke the good time of inmates. In this case, “Robert O. McDonnell, a prisoner, had filed a class- action suit against the state of Nebraska, claiming that its disciplinary procedures, especially those pertaining to the loss of good time were unconstitutional” (Clemens, 2002). McDonnell also complained, along with other inmates, about the limitations on their access to the law library, legal services, and visitation with the inmate legal assistant and that the regulations regarding prisoners ' mail violated the attorney-client privilege” (Keenan, 2005). This case was argued on Argued April 22, 1974 and a decision was made on decided June 26, 1974.…

    The Great Awakening

    The Great Awakening was a watershed event in the life of the American people. Before it was over, it had swept the colonies of the Eastern seaboard, transforming the social and religious life of land. Although the name is slightly misleading--the Great Awakening was not one continuous revival, rather it was several revivals in a variety of locations--it says a great deal about the state of religion in the colonies. For the simple reality is that one cannot be awakened unless you have fallen asleep.…
