True in some cases, however law enforcement personnel will punish anyone, under certain circumstances it is much easier to do illegal activities, such as if someone were to have a dad as a cop they can get away without a speeding ticket etc.

Answer:

As a judge, you should be required to pick from a limited range of sentences for each offense.

Explanation:

Some may argue that having passed a difficult bar exam to be licensed to practice law, spending years prosecuting or defending criminal cases, and being involved in thousands of criminal trials should qualify a judge to be free to make any sentencing decision they want—but this notion is incorrect.

Although judges tend to be extremely experienced and highly intelligent, granting judges too much leeway in sentencing decisions leads to issues like sentencing disparity (disproportionate sentencing in similar cases). Before the passage of the Sentencing Reform Act (SRA) in 1984, sentencing disparities within the United States justice system were largely unaddressed, so the SRA sought to address sentencing disparities with the imposition of mandatory sentencing guidelines for federal sentences. However, the SRA limited the power of judges to a great extent, an issue that would be addressed in the <em>United States v. Booker</em> (2005) Supreme Court case, with the court ruling the sentencing guidelines imposed by the SRA be deemed advisory rather than mandatory. What can be learned from these legal developments is that sentencing guidelines are necessary for reducing disparity within the justice system, but should remain advisory so as to not place any excessive limitations on the authority or sentencing liberty of judges.

The closest answer to the Supreme Court's legal precedent—our ideal in this case—would be picking from a limited range of sentences for each offense rather than having no limitations at all, as the latter would likely result in a return to the non-uniform, disparity-ridden justice system seen before the passage of the SRA.

Alexxandr [17]

The question of whether it would be ethical for Agnozzi's experience at the store warrants a law suit is:

  • Based on the fact that Agnozzi did not have any clear indication that he was deaf, the store employee was well within his rights to give chase because he did not heed to the warnings.

<h3>Ethics in a law suit</h3>

This refers to the moral grounds which a person has to challenge an experience or a situation which he or someone else was involved in that he believed was unfair and wants to contest it in a law court.

With this in mind, Agnozzi can file a law suit but he would unlikely get a favorable ruling from a judge based on the situation of things as they occurred.
