In the <em>Lochner v. New York</em> case of 1905, the Supreme Court ruled that states could not <u>impose limits on the number of hours that employees could work.</u>

Further details:

A law passed in 1895 in the state of New York mandated that bakery employees could not work more than 10 hours a day and not more than 60 hours in a week.  A bakery owner named Joseph Lochner filed suit against the state, claiming the law was unconstitutional.  At the time, the Supreme Court decision was based on the idea that such laws violated an employee's "freedom of contract."  The majority of justices saw such a right implicit in the due process clause of the 14th Amendment, thinking that if employees agreed to work a heavy number of hours it was their right to do so.

In the time since the Lochner case, the Supreme Court has gone in the other direction, allowing laws that impose reasonable restrictions on businesses.  An example would be <em>West Coast Hotel Co. v. Parrish </em>(1937), which upheld the constitutionality of a minimum wage law passed in Washington state.

BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

Option D

Explanation:

All of the following options are in effect to ensure the government does not have too much power.

<u>Option I:</u>
Government officials are indeed subject to the law, they're not above it nor are they allowed to break the law without facing repercussions.

<u>Option II:</u>
Government officials are held accountable for their actions which is true. Government officials are at risk to be impeached, which is to be removed from their position if they break any laws.

<u>Option III:</u>
Limitations are placed on how long government officials can serve, which is indeed true. Government officials aren't allowed to serve for long periods of time, they're usually allowed to serve for a few years then a new government official is voted into office.

<u>Option IV:</u>
The government is divided into branches which is again true. This is called separations of powers which was put into place to ensure the government doesn't have all the power. So, the government was spilt into three different branches and checks and balances ensures that each branch doesn't gain more power than the other.

Which means your answer is option D "i., il., iii., and iv" or all of the above.

Hope this helps.
