People have the right to choose their partner irrespective of any kind of discrimination. The State of
Florida here, is trying to intrude into people's privacy by enforcing the law which is unconstitutional
under equality act. The constitution of United States prohibits any kind of inequality or
discrimination but State of Florida thinks otherwise by not allowing two short people to marry.
Ruling
I find State of Florida guilty for depriving Brian and Jennifer to marry each other because of the
height issue. Brian is to win this case, because it is unconstitutional to deprive someone of
something on the basis of discrimination. The Constitution is supreme and therefore such a law will
be declared null and void.
2. Michael v. University
Main Issue
The main issue of the case is, whether the University had the right to expel Michael without any
formal investigation done.Michael had the right to fair hearing. Whether Dr. Pickett was right to
dismiss Michael from the class, instead of having a reasoning from Michael of his actions of Head
Rotation.
Rationale
The University itself is violating its own code, by not allowing Michael to have a formal
investigation. There is a much difference between what one sees and what one does. It would have
been better if the moderator would have talked to Michael first, gave him warning, allow him to
take the exam, complain this action to the senior and launch a formal investigation. This way things
could have been handled in a better way.
Ruling
I think that Michael will be proved not guilty here because he was not given a fair hearing and
without any notice he was rusticated. Michael has all the right to sue the university on the premise
of not having formal investigation.
Main Issue
The main issue of the case is whether Taylor Lautner would be able to sue Taylor Swift foe half the
money she had made while they were in a relationship.
In Suggs vs Norris case, the courts didnt find the plaintiffs work free of charge and was not found
to be done gratuitously. The verdict was denied. Suggs won because she had sufficient evidence that
there was an implied contract because even though they werent married they had an understanding
that she would be remunerated for her services.
Contract Law which states for a contract to be legally enforceable three things must first happen
offer, acceptance, and consideration.[CITATION Fra09 \p 54 \l 1033 ]
Rationale
Marriage is generally defined as the union of a man and a woman to the exclusion of all the rest as
defined in the case of Hyde v. Wrench. In this particular case study, there was no presumption of
marriage. Moreover there was no written contract, both Swift and Lautner paid their bills separately
and split the rent into half.
Ruling
In my opinion, Swift is going to win this case because there was no marriage and as a result there
was no marital property. Thus Lautner cannot purport to sue Swift for marital property because
there was none in the first place.
