Thi question is incomplete. Here´s the complete question.

The 2013 case of Windsor v. United States in the Second Circuit Court of Appeals employed ___ in holding that the Defense of Marriage Act held no legitimate state interest and thus overturned it.

Answer: intermediate scrutiny

Explanation:

In United States v. Windsor, the Second Circuit Court of Appeals confirmed the lower court's decision that Section 3 of DOMA was unconstitutional.

The court found that, since homosexuals had been historically subjected to discrimination, they could be considered as a group that falls under a "quasi-suspect classification", and therefore intermediate scrutiny could be applied.

DOMA was deemed unconstitutional under the equal protection guarantees of the Fifth Amendment because it didn´t pass that test.

PLS HELP 20POINTS!!!!!!
Ronch [10]

Answer:

     The individual that has inspired me the most would have to be Woodrow wilson. He was the 28th president ,who was also the governor of New Jersey, and the president of princton university before he began his presidency. At one point he even worked as a lawyer in Atlanta, Georgia.  Woodrow's re-election campaign was founded because of the fact that he kept the U.S out of WWI. He was known best for coming up with the League of Nations besides the fact that woodrows country refused to be part of it. He married twice his second wife Edith Galt was a desendent of Pocohantas.

       Woodrow's biggest accomplishments were for establishing the FRS (Federal Reserve System) and winning the Nobel Peace prize. He won the Nobel Peace prize for his contribution to the international organization League of Natoions. After a policy of nuetrality at the outbreak of WWI, Woodrow led America into the war in order to and I quote " Make the world safe of democracy." Just like Roosevelt before him, Woodrow regarded himself as the personal representative of the people. Woodrow helped the environment by leading a Democratic Congress to pass major legislation that included the FTC (Federal Trade Commission), the Clayton Antitrust Act, the Federal Farm Loan Act, and the FRS (Federal Reseve System). Woodrow oversaw creation of the National Park Service in the year of 1916, Which has been considered one of the great treasures of the nation.

       Woodrow's administration had quickly and efficiently kickstarted the war by a mobilization once the united states joined WWI in April of 1917. First of all, Woodrow's established a number of governmental agencies designed to encourage and support Private-sector businesses in the war effort. He ultimatly tried to keep teh U.S out of the war but declared war on Germany in the year of 1917. Woodrow's main goal was to end the war and to bring out lasting peace for the world.
