Use only constitutional arguments to support your response.

In your discussion, present arguments for or against a law that restricts abortion by making it difficult for a woman to access. Is the State (in the US) infringing on a woman’s Right to Privacy by making abortion difficult to perform in the state? Why or why not? (2) How would you relate this law to the US Supreme Court decision in Roe v. Wade? (3) Is this law just, and does it infringe on a woman’s right to choose? Should abortion be a crime? Be insightful.

Wayne Schuller managed a warehouse in Minnetonka, Minnesota. His major concern was the number of workers to assign to his single unloading dock. After he began contracting with motor carriers for deliveries, he found that they were assessing him stiff penalties if their trucks had to wait to be unloaded. Wayne started adding larger crews at the unloading dock, but often they seemed idle because there were no trucks to unload. Wayne recalled from college that queueing theory might be applicable to such a problem. The theory of queueing is an analysis of the probabilities associated with waiting in line, assuming that orders, customers, and so on arrival in some pattern (often a random pattern) to stand in line. A common situation is that on average a facility may have excess capacity, but often it is more than full, with a backlog of work to be done. Often, this backlog has costs associated with it, including penalties to be paid or customers who walk away rather than wait. If a firm expands its capacity to reduce waiting times, then its costs go up and must be paid even when the facility is idle. Queueing theory is used to find the best level of capacity, the one that minimizes the costs of providing a service and the costs of those waiting to use the service. After some further research specific to his firm, Wayne determined the following facts:

1. Trucks arrive randomly at the average rate of four per hour, with a deviation of plus or minus one.

2. A team of two warehouse workers can unload trucks at the rate of five per hour, or once every 12 minutes.

3. A team of three warehouse workers can unload trucks at the rate of eight per hour, or once every 7.5 minutes. 4. A team of four warehouse workers can unload trucks at the rate of 10 per hour, or once every 6 minutes.

5. A team of five warehouse workers can unload trucks at the rate of 11 per hour, or once every 4.45 minutes.

6. The unloading times given in the preceding items (1–5) are average figures.

7. Each warehouse worker receives $14 per hour, must be paid for an entire shift, and—because of union work rules—can not be assigned to other tasks within the warehouse.

8. Because of its contract with the carriers, the Minnetonka warehouse must pay the motor carriers that own idle trucks at the rate of $60 per hour while the trucks stand idle, waiting to be unloaded.

Use a software package that enables you to perform queueing operations. Note that the variable defined as the number of servers (# servers) denotes the number of teams of workers and accompanying equipment working as a complete server. In the situation described, the number of teams or servers is always 1, although the number varies in terms of costs and output.

1. For each of the four work team sizes, calculate the expected number of trucks waiting in the queue to be unloaded.

2. For each of the four work team sizes, calculate the expected time in the queue—that is, the expected time a truck has to wait in line to be unloaded.

3. For each of the four work team sizes, what is the probability that a truck cannot be unloaded immediately?

4. Which of the four work team sizes results in the lowest cost to Wayne?

5. Wayne is also considering rental of a forklift to use in truck unloading. A team of only two would be needed, but the hourly cost would be $38 per hour ($28 for the workers and $10 for the forklift). The two workers could unload a truck in 5 minutes. Should Wayne rent the forklift?

6. Disregard your answer to question 5. Labor negotiations are coming up, and Wayne thinks he can get the union to give way on the work rule that prohibits warehouse workers on the unloading dock from being given other assignments when they are not unloading trucks. How much would Wayne save in unloading dock costs if he could reassign warehouse workers to other tasks when they are not unloading trucks, assuming that he has picked a good team of workers and each worker works 8 hours a day?

The year 2014 was a nightmare for James Littleton. In January 2014, Littleton was diagnosed with Type 2 (adult onset) diabetes. In June, Littleton's physician expressed concern regarding the lack of circulation in his left leg, and in October, a circulatory specialist recommended that the left leg be amputated to the knee; reluctantly, but resigned to his fate, Littleton agreed.

On November 1, Littleton is admitted to Pinecrest General Hospital for surgery. In what can only be described as a horrible and catastrophic mistake, the surgeon misreads the diagnosis and surgical instructions and amputates Littleton's right leg by mistake. Littleton's left leg is amputated the next day.

Confined to a wheelchair, but supported by the love, care, and concern of his family, Littleton visits the offices of a local Pinecrest law firm, Stephenson, Gordon, and Ratcliff, which is a general partnership. Stephenson and Gordon agree to represent Littleton in the medical malpractice lawsuit and sign a contract of representation with Littleton, agreeing to represent him for the standard one-third contingency fee, plus associated expenses.

The statute of limitations for medical malpractice actions in the state is three years. Because of oversight and neglect (rumor has it that both Stephenson and Gordon have substance abuse problems), the firm fails to file a complaint against the attending surgeon and Pinecrest General Hospital within the three-year period. Even though he lacks legal training, Littleton knows he will be forever barred from bringing a lawsuit against the doctor and the hospital.

Having experienced catastrophic neglect from two professions he once respected, Littleton focuses his energy on bringing Stephenson, Gordon, and Ratcliff to justice. He sues the general partnership, as well as the individual attorneys, Stephenson, Gordon, and Ratcliff, for legal malpractice.

Ratcliff's attorney moves for dismissal of the claim against his client individually, arguing that Ratcliff was not an attorney of record for Littleton and, as a result, should be dismissed personally from the lawsuit.

What is the applicable rule for partnership liability? Will Physician Ratcliff succeed in his motion for dismissal? Why or Why not? Please explain.

Allison Seizer's very wealthy father, entrepreneur Warren Seizer of Chimichonga Chime restaurant fame, was not what attracted Blake Patterson to her. It was love at first sight, and the two were married two years ago.

Seizer wanted the best for his daughter and son-in-law, so he offered Patterson a Chimichonga Chime franchise with a prime location in the center of the Elmwood business district. After a year under Patterson's ownership, it became clear that the newest Chimichonga Chime was a tremendous business success. In fact, records in sales, revenue, and profit goals for the restaurant were shattered in its first year of operation. Patterson believes that his hands-on ownership and operation of the restaurant was an important part of the store's success.

Unfortunately, the couple's relationship has suffered over time, and the term "irreconcilable differences" has been frequently mentioned in their conversations. Patterson asks for a divorce, and his wife obliges.

Seizer is furious. He is firmly convinced that Patterson is to blame for the marriage's dissolution because there is no conceivable way (at least in his mind) that his "darling angel," his "precious daughter," could be responsible. The creative genius behind Chimichonga Chime plots justice for his daughter and himself—although some may call it revenge.

On September 1, Warren Seizer personally delivers a Notice of Termination of Franchise to Blake Patterson. The document states that Patterson's franchise agreement has been terminated for cause and he must either close the restaurant or cease and desist from using the name Chimichonga Chime and the company's logo and from selling all franchise-related products within 30 days.

What is the rule of law? And who wins based on the rule of law (the father or the son-in-law)? Why?
