Paper details:
Please remember this is an exam, provide as much information, details, examples, list other legal cases that apply and valid arguments as possible. You have all been practicing your IRAC in the discussion. For the exam the IRAC expectations are much greater. Use legal language learned from the chapters when developing your answer. Use what you have learned in the chapter readings and in developing IRACs to analyze this case and make a sound and valid argument, stating legal reasoning, along with a final decision. Please do not plagiarize. I will be checking all your work against Turnitin plagiarizing system. Be sure to cite your reference if you use any. 1) Scenario: Greg sues Ned in an effort to obtain title to some land claimed by Ned and located inside the state of Texas.
Ned has never been to Texas in his life, has never had any contacts of any kind with the state, and refuses to appear in Texas to defend against Greg’s suit. Later, after Greg wins a default judgment against Ned, Ned shows up in Texas to claim that the judgment was invalid because he was totally outside Texas, hence Texas courts had no jurisdiction over him, and for this reason they could not affect his rights to the land. Is Ned, right? Why or why not? Be detailed in your response You may answer this question in IRAC format if you would like, but IRAC is not mandatory for this question. You may respond in an essay format with sound and valid arguments. 2) Scenario Mark, an untenured Assistant Professor of Business Law at a public university, is fired from his job for supposedly misbehaving with students in class. Since the firing took place without any kind of hearing, Mark wants to challenge it on procedural due process grounds. Will Mark’s claim succeed? Does Mark’s situation require legal due process? Assume that the university did not publicize the reasons for Mark’s discharge, and will not tell anyone why he was discharged.
Be detailed in your response You may answer this question in IRAC format if you would like, but IRAC is not mandatory for this question. You may respond in an essay format with sound and valid arguments. 3) Case: Fitzgerald Vs. Racing associates. Before 1989, Iowa permitted only one form of gambling: pari-mutuel betting at racetracks.
A 1989 Iowa statute authorized other forms of gambling, including slot machines on riverboats. The 1989 law established that adjusted revenues from riverboat slot machine gambling would be taxed at graduated rates, with a top rate of 20 percent. In 1994, Iowa enacted a law that authorized racetracks to operate slot machines.
That law also imposed a graduated tax upon racetrack slot machine adjusted revenues, with a top rate that started at 20 percent and would automatically rise over time to 36 percent. The 1994 enactment left in place the 20 percent tax rate on riverboat slot machine adjusted revenues. Contending that the 1994 legislation’s 20 percent versus 36 percent tax rate difference violated the federal Constitution’s Equal Protection Clause, a group of racetracks and an association of dog owners brought suit against the State of Iowa.
Is it fair to have a difference in taxes for the riverboat and racetrack slot machines? Why or why not? In addition to answering the questions develop a detailed IRAC for this case. 4) Under what two conditions is a governmental taking of property unconstitutional? Should both of these conditions be satisfied in order for a taking to offend the constitution, or is only one condition necessary enough? Provide a detailed explanation with examples. (Do not forget to include examples
