In the <em>Lochner v. New York</em> case of 1905, the Supreme Court ruled that states could not <u>impose limits on the number of hours that employees could work.</u>

Further details:

A law passed in 1895 in the state of New York mandated that bakery employees could not work more than 10 hours a day and not more than 60 hours in a week.  A bakery owner named Joseph Lochner filed suit against the state, claiming the law was unconstitutional.  At the time, the Supreme Court decision was based on the idea that such laws violated an employee's "freedom of contract."  The majority of justices saw such a right implicit in the due process clause of the 14th Amendment, thinking that if employees agreed to work a heavy number of hours it was their right to do so.

In the time since the Lochner case, the Supreme Court has gone in the other direction, allowing laws that impose reasonable restrictions on businesses.  An example would be <em>West Coast Hotel Co. v. Parrish </em>(1937), which upheld the constitutionality of a minimum wage law passed in Washington state.

Select the correct location on the map.
lawyer [7]

Answer:

Second location from right to left

Explanation:

This is the location that has the greatest chance of escaping the bubonic plague. The reason is that this location is not near any major trade route. Trade routes were dangerous during this time period because they were areas where many different people from different places interacted. This meant that the risk of spreading the disease was larger. Therefore, towns that were located along major trade routes were the first ones to be badly affected by the disease.
