First of all this is what it's required, so the answers have to be from here for (part3). Introduction to Law, Ethics, and Legal Reasoning Chapter 1 covers an introduction to some legal concepts and issues that you will need to understand for the remainder of this class. A lot of the concepts will be necessary as we move forward in the course. Make sure you understand the following things:1. Sources of American Law - you should be able to state and explain what each of the sources of American Law are. The sources of American law are the places we look to see what the law is. It includes the statutes or regulations that judges review in determining how a case will be decided. It also includes the information that is provided to jurors to assist them in deciding cases (Criminal and Civil).2. The common law tradition and the importance of the doctrine of Stare Decisis (pronounced Stare-aye Decise-is). Today, the doctrine of stare decisis remains a big part of our judiciary. The court of appeals and supreme court regularly are deciding cases that the courts throughout the state of lowa are required to follow. You should understand the difference between courts of equity (courts of fairness) and courts of law (to recover payment of money or damages or property). You should understand the difference between the different schools of legal thought.3. Understand the difference between criminal law and civil law. Criminal law is intended to protect society where civil law is to protect individuals rights by allowing them to sue each other. Criminal cases are initiated by a governmental agency such as The State of lowa. Civil actions are brought by the individual.In a criminal case, the victim of the offense has no power over whether charges are initiated, whether a plea deal is reached or whether the case is dismissed.The role of the victim in a criminal case is to be a witness in the case if necessary. In a civil case, the injured party is the one who actually initiates the lawsuitand has total control over whether the case is settled or goes to trial.4. Law vs. Ethics. It may seem to be common sense that if something is illegal that it is unethical, but because of the difference in moral principles from one individual to another, this may not be as black and white as it seems. There are also actions that are legal that may be considered to be unethical. Take some time to review this material and think about the difference between those two concepts and how they can conflict.Second of all: (par2) have to be answered from this website: in the picture and it says homeless man gets 15 years for $100;CEO gets three years for $3 billion As we in America attend to our attractions to tedium, whether it is the Casey Anthony verdict, Lil Wayne, Reality TV or Niki Minaj, there are real issues that are occurring the shell the serious Economic problems this nation and its citizens are experiencing. As Obama struggles to get the debt ceiling passed, The reality of social injustice especially for African-Americans in the economically disenfranchised call Ma is being avoided ignored and swept under the rug. For example, in Louisiana a homeless man robbed a bank and took a single $100 bill after feeling bad and even knowing the money could be used to help him find food and shelter he returned the same bill to the Louisiana bank he took it from and surrendered to the police the same day. Roy Brown 54, robbed the capital one bank in shreveport, LA.., in December 2007. He approached the teller and told her that it was a robbery. The teller handed Brown three stacks of bills, but he only took a single$100 bill and returned the remaining money back to her. In Caddo District court, he helped guilty, and the judge sentenced him to 15 years in prison for first degree robbery.It is a sad day in America when a person who returns something he took is punished more severely than a rapist or a murderer. True, he robbed the bank, but there was no evidence of any weapon, and no one was hurt.It is difficult to understand. Paul R. Allen, 55, the former CEO of one of the largest privately held mortgage lenders, Ocala, Fla.-based Taylor Bean & Whitaker, received three years in prison for his role in a $3 billion scheme that officials called one of the biggest corporate fraud schemes in history.A white man who steals $3 billion and returns none of the money gets just three years, and a black homeless man steals $100, returns it all and receives 15 years.
