  • Midterm discussion post

    I need you to rewrite this discussion post while keeping the same information and reference to the course textbook. Please make sure the writing sounds natural and original while still meeting the assignment requirements.

    One of the most important concepts I learned in this class is Social Control Theory. According to Juvenile Delinquency in a Diverse Society by Kristin A. Bates and Richelle S. Swan, social control theory explains that delinquency occurs when an individuals bond to society becomes weak or breaks entirely. The theory suggests that most people have the potential to commit delinquent acts, but strong social relationships and connections to society help prevent this behavior (Bates & Swan, 2021).

    The theory identifies four key elements that create these social bonds: attachment, commitment, involvement, and belief. Attachment refers to the emotional relationships individuals form with parents, teachers, and other authority figures. Commitment refers to the level of investment young people place in conventional goals such as education, career plans, and long-term success. Involvement refers to participation in structured or positive activities that reduce the time and opportunities available for delinquent behavior. Belief refers to the acceptance of social rules, laws, and moral values as legitimate and important (Bates & Swan, 2021).

    This concept is important because it helps explain why some young people become involved in delinquency while others in similar environments do not. By understanding how social bonds influence behavior, communities and families can focus on strengthening relationships, encouraging school involvement, and building supportive environments that reduce delinquency and support positive youth development.

    This is the feedback I received from the last assignment that was submitted:

    Thank you for your work this week. Your initial post identified meaningful strains, but it relied on a non-course source and didnt use the textbook or course materials as required by the rubric. Your response post was supportive and clearly written, but it didnt include APA citations from the course readings and didnt add enough theory-based analysis. Strengthening connections to the assigned textbook, citing course materials, and expanding the theoretical explanation in both posts will help you earn higher scores on future discussion boards. (Mar 5 at 6:26 PM)

    I understand the feedback and I am not placing blame on you for this. I just need the corrections made for this new assignments.

  • 1-2 page case brief project

    I attached an example of what the case study would look like

    Case Brief Project (1-2 Pages (1 page minimum and 2 page maximum), 10-12 point font size, standard font style (e.g., Garamond, Times New Roman, Arial, Calibri), and 0.5″ to 1″ margins). See examples here: example case brief-3.pdf Download example case brief-3.pdf (most recent), student case brief examples.pdf Download student case brief examples.pdf, recent example Download recent example, another case brief example.pdf Download another case brief example.pdf, case brief example.pdf Download case brief example.pdf, Another Case Brief Example (over page limit though).pdf Download Another Case Brief Example (over page limit though).pdf, and Case Brief Example-3.pdf Download Case Brief Example-3.pdf. The goal of this assignment is to find a case that has been decided by the Supreme Court of the United States or the Supreme Court of California from within the past 5 years, then summarize the judicial opinion in the form of a case brief (see examples above and more information below). Please do not attempt to create a case brief only from review of an article–please review the actual opinion for the case from the Supreme Court (see below for how to find these opinions). Also, please do not select a case that did not produce a substantive opinion from the Supreme Court (e.g., do not select a case that was an automatic appeal due to the death penalty nor one that is pending a decision from the Supreme Court or a case that the Supreme Court dismissed (nor a case where the petition for a writ of certiorari was “denied” or decided to have been “improvidently granted”, and not a “case pending”)–there must be a substantive opinion (usually of at least a couple of pages and certainly not only a couple of sentences) to summarize briefly in the 1-2 page case brief. Multiple case briefs are typically created in law school each week in order to quickly recall essential information from an opinion to discuss in class, which is why they should be as concise as possible. This website should help you find a case from the US Supreme Court according to issues of interest to you: https://www.oyez.org/issues Links to an external site. . For example, if interested in affirmative action cases, you can see a list of such cases at https://www.oyez.org/issues/155 Links to an external site. . From that list, one would usually look for a case decided by the US Supreme Court within the last 5 years; however, if the most recent case on that topic was not from within the last five years, then an older case may be selected if the rationale for selecting an older case is explained in the case brief. For an example case (though not from the past 5 years), consider a case such as Fisher v. University of Texas (see https://www.oyez.org/cases/2015/14-981Links to an external site.). From that Oyez webpage for the Fisher case, you can access the opinion of the case at https://www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/15pdf/14-981_4g15.pdfLinks to an external site. or at https://supreme.justia.com/cases/federal/us/579/14-981/#tab-opinion-3589817Links to an external site. to summarize in your case brief (and you can also check your understanding with the summary of the case on the Oyez webpage). If you utilize a source in your case brief other than the actual opinion of the case, such as using a website like Oyez, then please cite it using any standard citation format (e.g., MLA, APA, University of Chicago, Bluebook) and include a works cited page (and put any direct quotes from it in quotation marks). The works cited page, if needed, does not count toward the page limits. That said, there is no need to utilize any source other than the actual Supreme Court opinion analyzed for the case. Other than quotation marks for any direct quotes, there is no need to cite the actual opinion for the case (only other sources, if any). Thus, a paraphrase from the actual opinion would not need to be cited. See below for the more detailed assignment instructions: Complete the following course project, which consists of researching a case and writing a critical case brief after reading and analyzing the judicial opinion associated with the case. Research one case that the U.S. Supreme Court or the California Supreme Court (not a trial court or an intermediate court of appeal or a court in another state/country) has written a decision on (preferably within the last 5 years, although older cases may be selected if of a particular interest, which must be explained in the case brief) For more information on writing a student case brief, please review this website: https://web.archive.org/web/20250318232057/https:/www.lib.jjay.cuny.edu/how-to/brief-a-case Links to an external site.. The case brief should have a case citation (parties involved and year of decision), brief facts (only the most important facts that the court relied on), issue(s) (the question(s) to be resolved by the court), holding/rule of law (the precedent established by the case, which is the court’s answer(s) to the issue(s)), reasoning/rationale (why the court ruled as it did), other opinions (e.g., dissent and/or concurring opinions, if any), and your own brief analysis (e.g., why you agree with the court or not). Thus, answer the following questions while preparing a case brief: Case: What was the name of the case? Please include a link to the case opinion online (a URL Links to an external site.) and the year of the case as well. Do not select “pending” cases or cases that were determined to be moot or not ripe, automatic death penalty appeals, or any case that did not produce a substantive opinion that can be analyzed in each of the categories below (e.g., not a case that is still pending a decision by the Supreme Court). If a case is too difficult to understand, select a different case–there are many cases to choose from and there are several that are very approachable with the knowledge gained in this course. Parties: Who were the parties? Facts: Briefly discuss the type of case it is (e.g., civil, criminal) and what the facts of the case were that were relied upon in the decision made by the Court (the dispositive facts only). This should not be the bulk of a case brief, and there will be plenty of unimportant facts left out. Make sure that the facts included are important to understanding why the court held as it did, which will help compare this case to other cases (an important skill in our common law system of precedence under the doctrine of stare decisis). Issue: What was the issue or issues to be decided by the court? This is best phrased as a question or questions that the Court answered. If the Court did not answer a legal question, such as when the Court chooses not to accept the case, then it is not a good case to choose to brief! Holding/Reasoning & Rationale: What was the holding (the decision of the court that answered the issue(s)) and what was the courts rationale or reasoning for the holding? What rules of law were mentioned? Other Opinions: Were there any dissenting or concurring opinions of note? If so, summarize. Analysis: Do you agree with the majority opinion or any dissenting or concurring opinion? Why or why not? Discussion: Why did you select this case? Why do you think the Court chose to hear this particular case that you chose, given the large number of writs of certiorari the Court receives each term? Every year the court has a large number of writs of certiorari received each term. Remember, neither the California nor the U.S. Supreme Court has to hear every case brought before it. Having a case decided by these courts is a privilege, not a right. Your response should be 1-2 pages, double-spaced. Properly cite all sources and place any direct quotes in quotation marks. Use headings to designate the applicable areas of the case brief (e.g., (e.g., “Facts,” “Issue,” “Holding,” “Reasoning/Rationale,” “Analysis,” Discussion). Additionally, here is a video walking you through how to write a case brief (the case brief discussed in this case uses slightly different headings but the same basic principles apply with regard to reading a case with writing a case brief in mind): How to write a case brief Liberal Vs Estrada Links to an external site.

  • Business Formation Project: Final Paper

    In this assignment, youll turn your Module 6 building blocks of your concept, entity comparison, draft formation documents/screens, compliance notes, and risk/ethics snapshots, into a polished, decision-ready 46 page analysis. Doing this will sharpen your academic skills (clear writing, evidence-based reasoning), give you credible talking points for interviews and networking, and prepare you for real-world conversations with co-founders, advisors, or lenders.

    Complete Your Work

    Your final submission builds directly on your Business Formation Project from Module 6. Youll take your artifacts including your business concept, your entity comparison, your draft formation documents/screens, your compliance notes, and your risk/ethics snapshots, and turn them into a cohesive, decision-ready analysis. Start by using your Module 6 work as the foundation. Confirm (or revise) your business description, finalize your entity choice with clear reasoning tied to your liability tolerance, taxes, control, and growth, and translate the forms you found into a brief what/why/when filing plan. Be sure to expand your governance outline into a practical startup checklist with your owners, roles, and timelines. Work to evolve your compliance list into an ongoing maintenance calendar (annual/biennial reports, tax filings, license renewals, recordkeeping standards), and turn your preliminary risk notes into a concise risk-and-controls analysis that names the triggers in your workflow and the specific policy, contract clause, training, audit, or insurance you will use to prevent issues. If your thinking has changed since Module 6, explain why (new facts, better fit, updated assumptions) so you demonstrate growth in judgment, not just repetition. In short, Module 6 gave you the building blocks; Module 8 is where you assemble them into a polished, defensible plan you could hand to a co-founder, advisor, or lender.

    Instructions

    Your final submission must be a 46 page written analysis that addresses all required components of the assignment. Format your paper double-spaced in 12-point font with standard margins, and upload it as a single Word (.doc/.docx) or PDF file. If you use outside sources, include APA-formatted in-text citations and a separate References page; the References page does not count toward the page minimum. You will be evaluated on both the number and relevance of the business-specific legal issues you identify and the quality of your analysis for each, so aim for specific, tailored risks and controls rather than generic lists.

    In your paper, clearly describe your proposed business – what it is, what it sells or does, whom it serves, and where it operates, and justify your chosen legal structure (sole proprietorship, partnership, LLC, or S corporation) by explaining how it aligns with your goals, liability tolerance, tax treatment, and growth plans. Identify the ethical dilemmas you may encounter at launch and explain how you would address them, naming the key stakeholders, the options you would weigh, and the policy or practice you would adopt. Finally, analyze the legal risks you must monitor; for each issue, specify what the issue is, when it could arise in your operations, how you will prevent or mitigate it through policies, contracts, training, controls, or insurance, and the consequences if it is missed. Proofread carefully before you upload.

I will attach a file with how I would like my essay to be structured please. please include: * Law Reviews/Journals: Look for articles in journals like the “Harvard Law Review,” “Yale Law Journal,” or the “Oxford Journal of Legal Studies.” Search for keywords like “judicial policy-making,” “legal principles vs. policy,” or “separation of powers in jurisprudence.” * Tort Law: A good starting point is Donoghue v Stevenson [1932] AC 562. It’s a foundational case in negligence, and the judgments discuss the principles behind establishing a duty of care, which has clear policy implications. * Case Law: Consider cases like *Caparo Industries plc v Dickman* [1990] 2 AC 605, which deals with the duty of care in negligence and explicitly considers policy implications. Also, look at *R (on the application of Begum) v Denbigh High School* [2006] UKHL 15, which involves human rights and religious freedom, where the House of Lords had to balance legal principles with broader societal policies. * Statute: The Human Rights Act 1998 is a key piece of legislation that requires courts to interpret laws in line with the European Convention on Human Rights, often bringing policy considerations to the forefront. * Legal Commentary: Read works by legal philosophers like Ronald Dworkin (“Law’s Empire”) and H.L.A. Hart (“The Concept of Law”). Dworkin argues for principles as integral to law, while Hart focuses on law as a system of rules, which can help you understand the theoretical underpinnings of the debate. Also, look into commentary on judicial activism versus restraint. p
