Banking Problems. Constance and Blair are both loan officers at ABC Bank. Constance, being somewhat dishonest, tells Henry, a cu

stomer of the bank who is wealthy and rarely checks the status of outstanding loans and balances, that she is collecting money for a local animal shelter. She asks him to sign a pledge that he will contribute $50 to the animal shelter. In fact, she had him sign a promissory note made out to her for $5,000, which she later endorsed to Richard. Henry proceeds back to one of his businesses, a used car dealership. Taylor comes in to purchase a used car. He and Henry agree that Taylor will purchase a used car for $3,000. Martha also comes in, and she and Henry agree that she will purchase a used car for $4,000. Both Taylor and Martha make out promissory notes payable to Henry. At the end of the day, Henry is looking through the notes and decides that Taylor's was mistakenly made out for $3,000. Henry mistakenly, but honestly, believed that the deal was for $3,500. Therefore, he changes the note to reflect that Taylor owed $3,500. Henry, on the other hand, simply did not like Martha. He decided that $4,000 was not enough for the car. Accordingly, he changed the note to $4,500. Which of the following is true regarding Martha's liability to Henry?
a. He will be liable because an official banking document was involved. 0 O He can claim fraud in the inducement
b. He will be liable without further inquiry unless he can establish that the note had not been endorsed to a holder in due course.
c. He can claim fraud in the factum, and whether he is liable or not will depend upon whether a court determines that he should have known what he was signing
d. He will not be liable, because a party is never liable when the party signed a negotiable instrument without knowing that it is, in fact, a negotiable instrument

OJ Simpson's "Dream Team" of lawyers and
lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

On June 12, 1994, Nicole Brown and Ronald Goldman, were found dead at Brown's home. Prosecutors argued that Simpson killed his ex-wife and her lover out of jealousy. Prosecutors began by reporting Nicole Brown Simpson's call to the emergency center from 1989. In it, Nicole Brown said she was afraid Simpson would harm her. Prosecutors also came up with Simpson's DNA material and shoe prints from him, found at the scene of the crime. Dozens of experts stated that Simpson must have been at the scene of the crime. There was a lot of circumstantial scientific evidence.

Simpson hired a team of expensive attorneys led by Robert Shapiro and later Johnnie Cochran. Cochran was nationally known as a lawyer for (mainly black) celebrities and specialized in cases involving discrimination or police brutality. From the outset, the defense was based on the charge of racism. The lawyers claimed that Simpson had been a victim of police fraud by depositing evidence against Simpson at the crime scene. The leader of the investigation into the double murder (Mark Fuhrman) was called a racist by the defense, and the lawyers found footage in which Fuhrman had used the N word.

While prosecutors believed they had a solid case and expected a conviction, polls showed that a majority of black residents of the United States believed that Simpson had been a victim of police fraud. Most white residents of the United States were convinced of Simpson's guilt. As the jury's verdict drew closer, racial tension rose, and some politicians feared a repeat of the Los Angeles race riots a few years earlier. On October 3, 1995 Simpson was acquitted of murder by the jury.

According to the ___________ doctrine, officers are permitted to search and to seize evidence, without a warrant, on private pro
Salsk061 [2.6K]

The open field doctrine states that officers are allowed to search and take evidence on private property outside of the immediate vicinity of a dwelling without obtaining a warrant.

- A "warrantless search of the area outside a property owner's curtilage" does not violate the Fourth Amendment of the United States Constitution, according to the open-fields doctrine (also known as the open-field doctrine or open-fields rule) in American criminal procedural law.

- Explains that as long as objects are immediately recognizable as being subject to seizure and are within the sight of an officer who is legally present in the location from where the view is made, they may be properly confiscated without a warrant (illegal).
