Answer:
Ginsburg argued for the petitioner. A jury convicted Billy Duren of first degree murder and first degree robbery. Duren alleged that the selection of this jury violated his Sixth and Fourteenth Amendment right to a trial by a jury chosen from a fair cross section of the community. Specifically, Jackson County allowed an automatic exemption from jury service for women upon request. While women made up 54% of the population in the Jackson County, only 26.7% of people summoned from the jury wheel were women. Defendant had an all-male jury selected from a panel of 48 men and 5 women. The Missouri Supreme Court affirmed the conviction, questioning the validity of Duren’s statistics. The court also held that even if women were disproportionally excluded from jury service, the amount of women who participated in the process was well above constitutional standards.

Answer:
Nick was actually invited for the party and he did not drink as much as the other guests.
Explanation:
Nick is the narrator in the novel "The Great Gatsby" by F. Scott Fitzgerald. The story revolves around the character named Jay Gatsby and his forbidden love for Nick's cousin Daisy.
In chapter 3, Gatsby throws another of his grand parties. When Nick arrives at the party, he finds out he is one of the few guests who have actually been invited to it. Check the excerpt below:
<em>I believe that on the first night I went to Gatsby’s house I was one of the few guests who had actually been invited. People were not invited — they went there. They got into automobiles which bore them out to Long Island, and somehow they ended up at Gatsby’s door.</em>
Nick is alone at the party and Gatsby himself is nowhere to be seen. Nick approaches a cocktail table with the intention of getting drunk "out of sheer embarrassment" but, upon seeing Jordan Baker, he chooses to stay by her side. Later on, he admits to drinking "two finger-bowls of champagne" but doesn't seem to drink any more than that. He stays sober enough to perceive how the drunken guests make a fool out of themselves and yet it all seems acceptable since it is a party.
<em>I was enjoying myself now. I had taken two finger-bowls of champagne, and the scene had changed before my eyes into something significant, elemental, and profound.</em>
