In Katz vs United states , the supreme court ruled on whether the police would tap a public phone without a warrant.
Answer:
Unconstitutional to tap a public phone without a warrant.
Explanation:
In Katz v. United States, 1967, the Supreme Court ruled that The Fourth Amendment protection should bring under its aegis the right to private conversation even electronically. In other words, the court ruled out that it was unconstitutional to wiretap electronic devices without a warrant.
Charles Katz was arrested for interstate gambling in 1965 with evidences from his telephonic conversation from a tapped telephone booth. However, his case became a much debated case on how far does the Fourth Amendment protection apply to.
Based on his case, the Supreme Court concluded that telephone booth becomes a private space when a person enters inside it, therefore it is unconstitutional to wiretap a telephone booth without a warrant.

Write a paragraph summarizing the Civil War.
Answer:The Civil War in the United States began in 1861, after decades of simmering tensions between northern and southern states over slavery, states' rights and westward expansion. ... The War Between the States, as the Civil War was also known, ended in Confederate surrender in 1865. The Civil War is the central event in America's historical consciousness. While the Revolution of 1776-1783 created the United States, the Civil War of 1861-1865 determined what kind of nation it would be. The war resolved two fundamental questions left unresolved by the revolution: whether the United States was to be a dissolvable confederation of sovereign states or an indivisible nation with a sovereign national government; and whether this nation, born of a declaration that all men were created with an equal right to liberty, would continue to exist as the largest slaveholding country in the world.
Write a paragraph explaining why lifetime appointments for federal court judges is important.
HELP!!!
Answer:
Members of the Supreme Court are appointed by the President subject to the approval of the Senate. To make sure an freelance Judiciary and independent judges from partisan pressures, the Constitution provides that judges serve throughout good Behaviour, that has typically meant life terms. The primary goal of life tenure is to insulate the officeholder from external pressures. sure heads of state, like monarchs and presidents always, are given life tenure. US federal judges have life tenure once appointed by the president and confirmed by the Senate.
Hope it helps!<3
Answer:
The lifetime term provides job security and allows appointed judges to do what is right under the law because they don't have to fear that they will be fired if they make an unpopular decision.
U.S. Supreme Court justices serve until retirement, death, or impeachment. Lifetime tenure raises the stakes of selection considerably since, as justices are serving for increasingly longer amounts of time, each now sits on the Supreme Court for more than 20 years on average. Lifetime appointments add to a perception that judges are beholden to their appointing authority and will be allowed to impose political biases until death. Even though retention elections are incredibly stressful and arguably distracting, accountability produces better judges.
In conclusion, these judges, often referred to as Article III judges are nominated by the president and confirmed by the U.S. Senate. Article III states that these judges hold their office during good behavior, which means they have a lifetime appointment, except under very limited circumstances.

compare and contrast John adams and thomas jefferson in a paragraph
Answer:
John Adams and Thomas Jefferson could be considered “the odd couple of the American Revolution.” They first met as delegates to the Continental Congress in 1775; the following year, Adams would personally select Jefferson to draft the Declaration of Independence. Profoundly different in physical appearance and demeanor—Jefferson was tall, elegant and philosophical, while Adams was short, stout and prone to vivid outbursts of emotion—the two men nevertheless became close friends.
The friendship grew stronger in the 1780s, when Adams and Jefferson served diplomatic missions to Europe. While living in England and France, both Adams and his wife, Abigail, consoled Jefferson after the loss of his wife, Martha, and grew to consider him almost a part of the family.
Things got more complicated, however, when both men returned to the United States, and the heated debate over the new nation’s government. As secretary of state in George Washington’s cabinet, Jefferson was driven by a fear of a powerful central authority and gravitated toward the new Republican Party. Adams, who as vice president was largely marginalized in Washington’s administration, favored a strong central government to ensure the new nation’s survival, and aligned himself with the Federalist Party.
Jefferson’s enduring support for the French Revolution—even after the execution of King Louis XVI and the dawn of the Reign of Terror—further soured his friendship with Adams. His anger over Washington’s policy of neutrality led Jefferson to resign from the cabinet at the end of 1793 and withdraw to Monticello, his Virginia estate. It was during this period, according to Mark Silk, that Adams took the opportunity to gossip about his former friend in letters to his sons Charles and John Quincy.
Silk, a professor of religion and director of the Leonard E. Greenberg Center for the Study of Religion in Public Life at Trinity College, writes in Smithsonian about two letters written by Adams in January 1794, soon after Jefferson’s return to Monticello. In the first, addressed to Charles, Adams wrote of Jefferson’s supposed retirement from public life, saying that when Washington died or resigned, his former friend expected to be “invited from his conversations with Egeria in the Groves” to take control of the government. In a similar reference the following day, he wrote to John Quincy of Jefferson being “summoned from the familiar society of Egeria” to take the reins of power.
At the time, Silk argues, “conversation” was a euphemism for sexual intercourse, while “familiar” was a synonym for “intimate.” He believes the references to Egeria were Adams’ sly way of referring to Sally Hemings, the slave woman whose longstanding relationship with Jefferson produced (according to DNA evidence) at least one and probably six children between 1790 and 1808. In the early mythology of early Roman history (as chronicled by Livy and Plutarch), Egeria was a divine nymph or goddess who became the lover of Numa, a man chosen by Roman senators as their king after the death of Romulus, Rome’s founder.
Numa was a widower (like Jefferson) and the more philosophical and intellectual successor to a military hero. Silk believes the classical reference, though overlooked by later historians and biographers, would have been clear at the time. A French writer had published a popular novel about Numa in 1786—a year before Hemings, a half-sister of Jefferson’s late wife, accompanied Jefferson’s younger daughter, Mary, to Paris, where Jefferson was serving as a minister. Adams would certainly have known about the young, attractive slave girl in Jefferson’s household, as she and Mary stayed with the Adamses in London after their transatlantic voyage. If Silk’s theory is correct, it would suggest that the rumors of Jefferson’s liaison with Hemings would have been circulating—at least among the political elite—by 1794, long before they were first reported in the press.
Explanation:
Which ended slavery in the United States?
Answer:
Before the American Civil War, Abraham Lincoln and other leaders of the anti-slavery Republican Party sought not to abolish slavery but merely to stop its extension into new territories and states in the American West. This policy was unacceptable to most Southern politicians, who believed that the growth of free states would turn the U.S. power structure irrevocably against them. In November 1860, Lincoln’s election as president signaled the secession of seven Southern states and the formation of the Confederate States of America. Shortly after his inauguration in 1861, the Civil War began. Four more Southern states joined the Confederacy, while four border slave states in the upper South remained in the Union.

Answer:
The british government tried to end the smuggling of sugar and molasses from the french and dutch west indies in order to increase prices on imported products to america.
Answer:
Explanation:
In U.S. colonial history, the Sugar Act, also known as the Plantation Act or Tax Act, (1764), the British legislation aimed at ending the smuggling of sugar and molasses from the French and Dutch West Indies and having increased taxes during the French and Indian War to finance expanded British Empire obligations. In fact, the Sugar Act called for strict customs regulation of duty on refined sugar and molasses imported from non-British Caribbean suppliers into the colonies, a reinvigoration of the previously unsuccessful Molasses Act of 1733. The 1764 Revenue Act, also known as the Sugar Act, was the first levy levied by the British Parliament on the American colonies. Its goal was to increase revenue from the colonial customs service and to grant more authority and latitude to customs officers with regard to the execution of seizures and customs law enforcement.

How could slaves become free under Abbasid rule
Answer:
The Abbasid Caliphate, which ruled the Islamic world, oversaw the golden age of
Islamic culture. The dynasty ruled the Islamic Caliphate from 750 to 1258 AD, making it
one of the longest and most influential Islamic dynasties. For most of its early history, it
was the largest empire in the world, and this meant that it had contact with distant
neighbors such as the Chinese and Indians in the East, and the Byzantines in the West,
allowing it to adopt and synthesize ideas from these cultures.
Explanation:
The Abbasid Dynasty overthrew the preceding Umayyad Dynasty, which was
based in Damascus, Syria. The Umayyads had become increasingly unpopular,
especially in the eastern territories of the caliphate. The Umayyads favored Syrian
Arabs over other Muslims and treated mawali, newly converted Muslims, as second- class citizens. The most numerous group of mawali were the Persians, who lived side- by-side with Arabs in the east who were angry at the favor shown to Syrian Arabs.
Together, they were ripe for rebellion. Other Muslims were angry with the Umayyads
for turning the caliphate into a hereditary dynasty. Some believed that a single family
should not hold power, while Shiites believed that true authority belonged to the family
of the Prophet Muhammad through his son-in-law Ali, and the Umayyads were not part
of Muhammad’s family.
All these various groups who were angry with the Umayyads united under the
Abbasids, who began a rebellion against the Umayyads in Persia. The Abbasids built a
coalition of Persian mawali, Eastern Arabs, and Shiites. The Abbasids were able to
gain Shiite support because they claimed descent from Muhammad through
Muhammad’s uncle Abbas. Their descent from Muhammad was not through Ali, as
Shiites would have preferred, but Shiites still considered the Abbasids better than the
Umayyads. A Persian general, Abu Muslim, who supported Abbasid claims to power, led the
Abbasid armies. His victories allowed the Abbasid leader Abul `Abbas al-Saffah to
enter the Shiite-dominated city of Kufa in 748 and declare himself caliph. In 750, the
army of Abu Muslim and al-Saffah faced the Umayyad Caliph Marwan II at the Battle of
the Zab near the Tigris River. Marwan II was defeated, fled, and was killed. As-Saffah
captured Damascus and slaughtered the remaining members of the Umayyad family
(except for one, Abd al-Rahman, who escaped to Spain and continued the Umayyad
Dynasty there). The Abbasids were the new rulers of the caliphate.
The Early Abbasids
The Abbasids had led a revolution against the unpopular policies of the
Umayyads, but those who expected major change were disappointed. Under the
second Abbasid Caliph, al-Mansur (r. 754–775), it became clear that much of the
Umayyad past would be continued. The Abbasids maintained the hereditary control of
the caliphate, forming a new dynasty.
Under the Abbasids, enslaved people could gain their freedom if:
They sued their masters for denying them slave rights They bought their freedom Their masters died - sometimes They gave birth for their mastersEnslaved people under Islam have certain rights and if the master does not grant these rights, the enslaved person can sue for their freedom.
Some enslaved people were also allowed to buy their freedom from their masters after some time and some were freed when their masters died.
Muslims were allowed to sleep with female enslaved people and if they gave birth, this female slave enslaved person would have to be freed.
