The courts have protected the right of property as much as they have protected civil rights such as freedom of speech and religion and the right to due process of law. Cases on both have been characterized by judicial activism. No overall principle serves as a basis for protecting all these rights but each right must be analyzed on its own terms.
The Republicans in Arizona think that the immigration law protects citizens and abides by the Fourteenth Amendment of the Constitution. But theJFourteenth Amendment to the Constitution is not only confined to the protection of citizens. It says: "Nor shall any state deprive any person of life, liberty or property without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the law."

Also, the proposed initiative would "limit welfare payments for the (American citizen) children of undocumented immigrants, as well as require that any application for public benefits submitted by illegal immigrants be handed over to federal authorities." No federal law requires such information of any other parent thus as most benefits are federally financed, this proposal is illegal. It is also illegal because it targets a "class" of...

An accused receives credit for all pretrial confinement served in a military facility.11 An accused will receive credit if he is illegally punished before trial in violation of Article 13, UCMJ.12 The accused receives sentencing credit for restriction that is deemed tantamount to confinement.13 He receives credit for any nonjudicial punishment served for the same offense he is convicted of at courtmartial. 14 An accused will be credited if the government violates Rule for Court-Martial (RCM) 305 procedures.15 However, if an accused serves pretrial restriction that does not amount to confinement or punishment, he does not currently receive any recognized sentencing credit. The 1969 Manual for Courts-Martial (MCM) included a chart that listed equivalent punishments.18 In this chart, one ...
