Description

You must do your own work and use Turnitin. I will not accept any paper that has 25% or more

“similarity.” See Syllabus. I will also not accept papers that fail to properly cite to sources.

Like all papers you’ll submit, formatting is: 1” margins all around, double-spaced, Times New Roman, 12-point font. No headers, extra spaces between paragraphs – none of the little tricks that take up space.

There is a 5 full page minimum, If you want a better score, then do more than the minimum required work. I can tell when a student has done the work and when they have waited until the last minute to throw something together.

You must answer the following three questions:

Question 1:

Interstate commerce refers to business transactions between individuals or businesses from two or more states. You’ve learned that Congress uses interstate commerce as a tool to force businesses to comply with the Civil Rights Act of 1964. Go to:

https://supreme.justia.com/cases/federal/us/379/24...

to read, in depth, a case referenced in your book: The Heart of Atlanta Motel v. The United States.

Tell me what the main arguments are for both the Plaintiff and the Defendant. Tell me how the Supreme Court ruled and why. I want to see facts and analysis in your paper that are not included in the book.

Question 2:

Private clubs are exempt from the Civil Rights Act. Go to:

https://casetext.com/case/lobel-v-woodland-golf-cl...

Tell me what the main arguments are for both the Plaintiff and the Defendant. Tell me how the court ruled and why.

Question 3:

Nevada Revised Statute 651.065 says “....is not unlawful and is not a ground for a civil action for any place of public accommodation to offer differential pricing, discounted pricing or special offers based on sex to promote or market the place of public accommodation.”

Under Nevada law a “place of public accommodation” includes a nightclub, which are very popular in Las Vegas.

So, basically, Nevada says it is legal to intentionally discriminate against men when it comes to charging entry fees to nightclubs. In other words, it is legally permissible for a nightclub to charge men a $40 entry fee but to allow women to enter for free. That decision is based solely on gender.

Is Nevada’s law actually legal? Does it conflict with a more superior law? If so, which one? What are your personal thoughts on this

Explanation & Answer

Attached.

Question 1:
There are numerous guidelines provided by federal laws that govern the case and the
conclusion a court of law would arrive at after hearing complaints from both the prosecutor and
the defendant. The main decision is arrived after analyzing the truth of the matter that any
prosecutor would present. However, if the defendant can challenge the prosecutor before the court,
there is a high possibility that a ruling will be in his favor. This section will analyze the case
presented before the court of law concerning The Heart of Atlanta Motel v. The United States. The
paper will explain the main in-depth ideas in the case and the court decision concerning the matter.
The main point of disagreement between the Heart of Atlanta Motel and The United States
was how to perform the business. The United States claims that The Heart of Atlanta motel is not
observing business law, as stated in Title II of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 3. This act prohibited
discrimination of the members of the society on any social base. The United States stated that the
Heart of Atlanta Motel has been discriminating against individuals who visit the Motel seeking
services. The Motel restricts its customers to only whites. This is against the law, which states that
all individuals should be given equal rights regardless of their skin color or race.
The United States further added that the Motel is violating the fifth amendment done in
support of equality. The violation has been clear through the Motel choosing its customers. Every
individual has the right to access any service he or she needs 3. Nevertheless, the Heart of Atlanta
Motel challenged the case before the court of law, stating that the business has been licensed to
work under any base of their choice. Their argument stated that their permit allows them to choose
who would be their customer and which services they would give, provided the business is work...
