What did the Supreme Court decide in Baker v Carr 1961 quizlet?

History

5 0

In Baker's favor, the Supreme Court made a decision. They came to the conclusion that federal courts have the authority to enforce the 14th amendment if the population distribution of the state legislative districts is uneven.

Biggers' lawsuit was improperly dismissed by the District Court because they felt they lacked jurisdiction.

In Baker v. Carr (1962), the United States Supreme Court decided that allegations that a state's redistricting procedures violate the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment to the Constitution may be reviewed by federal courts.

A 1901 statute intended to distribute seats for the state's general assembly, according to Baker and other Tennessee residents, was allegedly largely disregarded. Baker's lawsuit explained how Tennessee's efforts at reapportionment disregarded the state's major economic development and population changes.

What assumptions have been made about fingerprints? What are the problems with these assumptions?
Pavel [41]

Fingerprint matching is determined through unique characteristics. To achieve it must have certain ridges. loops and whorls. The characteristic points are then compared to the prints on the system. When forensics finds that there are enough similar matching points, they state whether they are fingerprints in which they match or not.

It is assumed that prints are one hundred percent positive, that is their use is one hundred percent successful with a zero error.

However, the prints are not considered scientific evidence, but it is still a presumption. There is never a hundred percent matching the prints, but just the similarity within the prints.
