In the Stambovsky v. Ackley case, the court was able to apply the concept of estoppel to prevent the seller from arguing that the house was not haunted.The court also found this to be a material fact in light of the seller's behavior when selling the house.These two findings allowed the court to arrive at what it determined to be a fair decision in favor of the buyer.

1. Why didn't the U.S. Supreme Court provide/use similar findings to provide a fair result for Ms. O'Connor under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 in the O'onnor v. Davis case?

2. What fundamental principle of our three-branch system of government constrained the Court's decision? How did that differ from the options available to the court in Stambovsky?

3. From an ethical and PR point of view, how should the CEO of a hospital responded to Ms. O'Connor's complaint?
