I think I should give the reason for my being in Birmingham, since you have been influenced by the argument of “outsiders coming

in.” . . . Several months ago our local affiliate here in Birmingham invited us to be on call to engage in a nonviolent direct action program if such were deemed necessary. We readily consented and when the hour came we lived up to our promises. So I am here, along with several members of my staff, because we were invited here. I am here because I have basic organizational ties here.

Select three types of persuasive authority which judges may use in cases of first impression.
kozerog [31]

Answer:

The three types of persuasive authority which judges may use in cases of first impression are higher, peers, or lower courts in the hierarchy, or from other jurisdictions.

Explanation:

A case of first impression is an issue where the parties disagree on what the applicable law is, and there is no prior binding authority, so that the matter has to be decided for the first time. A first impression case may be a first impression in only a particular jurisdiction.

By definition, a case of first impression cannot be decided by precedent. Since there is no precedent for the court to follow, the court uses the plain language and legislative history of any statute that must be interpreted, holdings of other jurisdictions, persuasive authority and analogies from prior rulings by other courts, commentaries and articles by legal scholars, and the court's own logic and sense of justice.

Zepler [3.9K]
<span> The Haitian Revolution was different from others in Latin America in that L'Ouverture and others led a slave revolt that kicked the French off the Island.
