Dorothy Rabinowitz's "No Crueler Tyrannies: Accusation, False Witness, And Other Terrors Of Our Times"
[ send me this paper ]
3 pages in length. Rabinowitz's argument in No Crueler Tyrannies : Accusation, False Witness, and Other Terrors of Our Times speaks to the unjust element in the justice system, where innocent people can be arrested, put on trial and convicted of crimes not only did they not commit but based upon wholly inadequate and unsubstantiated evidence. One readily compares the author's enlightening – if not utterly unsettling – accounts with that of the Salem witch trials where personal agenda was the sole motivation that fueled one of history's most horrendous miscarriages of justice. No additional sources cited.

Equitable Distribution in New York
[ send me this paper ]
A 25 page paper. The state of New York is an Equitable Distribution state. This is different than a community property state in which all marital property is simply divided in half between the two divorcing partners. Equitable distribution means that marital property, which includes assets and debts, is to be divided in an equitable fashion. That division may or may not be equal. How this came about can be found in a variety of court cases. Several cases are outlined. Three cases are discussed at length: O'Brien v O'Brien; McSparron v McSparron; and Grunfeld v Grunfeld. Bibliography lists 10 sources.

Gideon V. Wainwright
[ send me this paper ]
15 pages in length. The magnitude of Gideon v. Wainwright's precedent-setting decision was immense in nature; not only did this ruling establish an entirely new facet of personal rights within the scope of legal proceedings, but it also illustrated just how inequitable the entire system has historically been operated. Those who could heretofore not afford council when faced with a crime were left to defend themselves or simply give in to a system that offered no other way out; by contrast, those with money had every opportunity available to them. What is more, the case was instrumental in confirming that an individual's past criminal history has no bearing upon whether or not he should be deemed "worthy" of legal representation. Gideon v. Wainwright finally placed legal equity into the hands of every American. Bibliography lists 4 sources.
