The US was never completely isolated from the rest of the world. Trade made the US an active member of world affairs. It was during the period of the 1890s that the US foreign policy became influenced by imperialism. During that decade, the US became the most important industrial power in the world. That meant we had to find markets and areas to obtain raw materials. Business was also looking at other areas in the world as potential customers for our products. The US military, especially the Navy, was growing and expanding in other areas of the world where we had not had the ability to go in force before. The war with Spain (1898) and the presidency of T. Roosevelt also made the US a major economic, military, and imperialistic power.

pishuonlain [190]

Answer:

Winston v. Lee, 470 U.S. 753, 105 S. Ct. 164 (1985)

Explanation:

A man, who was a robbery suspected said to be armed with a gun was shot by a shop owner when he tried to rob his store. The bullet from the gunshots got into the chest of the suspect and there was an attempt by the commonwealth to get a doctor to surgically remove the bullet from the body of the suspect.

The commonwealth could not establish that it would be fitting under the fourth amendment terms to seek crime evidence of this category by simply requesting for surgery.  

The court ordered the surgery to be conducted but the results of the x-rays before the scheduled procedure showed that the bullets went much deeper than expected and the risks were higher than anticipated.

What changes did Henry II make to the English legal system and how did these changes affect feudalism?
Keith_Richards [23]
He strengthened royal courts by having the jury formally accuse a person of having committed a serious crime. He introduced the courts that were governed by the King and that would put subjects on trial, which weakened the feudal lords who had that power earlier.
