My friend, Nora Daley, was Emery’s lawyer, and she has been retired and transferred her previous cases to me, so I received a number of her clients including Ms. Emery. According to the available documents, she informed you that Ms. Emery has retained her, and she expressed to provide us a notice before any action, but you ignored. So, in this phase, I would suggest that you sign the consent order to set aside the default judgment. Background: My client, Ms. Emery, employs your client, Mr. Ivan, to install the plumbing in her new basement bathroom around two years ago. Your client didn’t perform a good job as he seems less professional than the other plumbers. They don’t sign any written contract, but both agree on a price ($5,265 including

  • Reverse Discrimination: The Case of Allan Bakke

    1600 Words  | 4 Pages

    In 1973 a thirty-three year-old Caucasian male named Allan Bakke applied to and was denied admission to the University of California Medical School at Davis. In 1974 he filed another application and was once again rejected, even though his test scores were considerably higher than various minorities that were admitted under a special program. This special program specified that 16 out of 100 possible spaces for the students in the medical program were set aside solely for minorities, while the other 84 slots were for anyone who qualified, including minorities. What happened to Bakke is known as reverse discrimination. Bakke felt his rejections to be violations of the Equal Protection Clause of the 14th amendment, so he took the University of California Regents to the Superior Court of California. It was ruled that "the admissions program violated his rights under the Equal Protection Clause of the 14th Amendment"1 The clause reads as follows:"...No state shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor without due process of the law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws."2 The court ruled that race could not be a factor in admissions. However, they did not force the admittance of Bakke because the court could not know if he would have been admitted if the special admissions program for minorities did not exist.

    Title VII under the Civil Rights Act of 1964 was enacted on July 2nd, 1964 as a mitigation strategy to prohibit any form of discrimination on grounds of a person’s religion, sex, color, race or their national origin.

It was also expected to solve discrimination present at workplaces and schools where there was widespread racial discrimination. However, the law has become an even more relevant tool and has seen to it that hiring and firing processes by many companies are adherent to it.

    In the United States, it is apparent that there is a struggle over the matters of race and equality. The evidence lays in the forms of police brutality, religious freedom laws, and how certain races are treated. In today’s society, discrimination1 is a huge problem that affects everyone on a personal level. Andrew Cuomo once said “I believe that discrimination still exists in society and we must fight it in every form.” Those words speak volumes and should be engraved into the heads of those who have the audacity to say that discrimination is not an issue today. The intolerance in America is projected by media and affects everyone: by race, religion, age, gender, wealth, and much more.
