An effective investigation may stop improper conduct and prevent future harm to the organization and its employees. Failure to stop improper conduct can result in the employer being liable for negligent retention and negligent supervision, among other legal claims. An effective investigation provides a sound foundation for taking disciplinary action, if necessary. An effective investigation also shows the complaining person that you take his or her concerns seriously, which may lessen the likelihood that he or she will file a charge with an external enforcement body, the EEOC, or some other regulatory entity. An effective investigation also shows external monitors, such as regulatory agencies and stakeholders, that the organization is serious about preventing and correcting misconduct. An effective investigation allows an employer to avoid or minimize liability for some types of employee misconduct, even if the alleged misconduct actually happened. It can also avoid the disruption in the workplace caused by litigation. Why we investigate. Employers have a legal duty to investigate allegations of certain types of misconduct, including but not limited to harassment and discrimination based on federal or state protected characteristics, and violations of certain state and federal statutes. Enforcement agencies have set strong expectations on ethical grounds for organizations to investigate suspected misconduct, even where there are no legal duties. The element(s) that must be present for the Fourth Amendment to be implicated in a search is/are: a. Government participation b. Standing c. Reasonable expectation of privacy d. A&C e. A, B, and C The dominant case that courts reference related to workplace searches of public employees is: a. Garrity v. New Jersey b. Katz v. United States c. O’Connor v. Ortega d. Connick v. Myers The 5th Amendment not only protects the individual against being involuntarily called as a witness against himself in a criminal prosecution but also privileges him not to answer official questions put to him in any other proceeding, civil or criminal, formal or informal, where the answers might incriminate him in future criminal proceedings. a. True b. False As the law stands now in Florida, a mobile tracking order is not required to surveil an employee’s travels through the use of a GPS device if the device is installed wherein trespass would not be implicated. a. True b. False Fourth Amendment considerations are heightened in the video surveillance of an employee subjected to a/an ___________ investigation. a. administrative b. criminal c. discrimination d. nonfeasance A public employee convicted of commercial bribery in connection with his/her public employment shall be required to forfeit their retirement benefits. a. True b. False Dram Shop recordings may prove useful in misconduct cases emanating from activity at a: 1. Bar 2. Courthouse 3. Jail 4. Financial Institution 5. Penn State Locker Room Violations of Florida’s ethics laws are not punishable as criminal acts. a. True b. false 1. An individual would have the lowest expectation of privacy in the following situation: a) Their unattended personal car is parked in their home’s driveway b) Their unattended personal car is parked in a public parking lot c) Their unattended state/corporate car is parked in the parking lot where they work. d) Their unattended state/corporate car is parked at a friend’s apartment complex. The Supreme Court recently held that a government employer _______ read through an employee's personal text messages on a government-issued device if they suspect workplace rules are being violated. a) may b) may not What are some of the rights employers have? What are some of the rights employees have? Right to establish rules of conduct (within contractual parameters) Right to establish wages (again, within contractual or career service parameters) Right to evaluate employees’ work Right to exercise overall discretion over entire plan or operations and budget Employers’ Rights & Responsibilities Employers have a legal right and duty to investigate allegations of certain types of misconduct, including but not limited to harassment and discrimination based on federal or state protected characteristics, and violations of certain state and federal statutes. Enforcement agencies and the courts have set high expectations on ethical grounds for organizations to investigate suspected internal misconduct. Early History of Employment Investigations Vatican Investigations Law Master-Servant:- The Ordinance of Labourers (1349), Statute of Labourers (1351, amended 1562) made the employment contract different from all others and prohibited any attempt on the part of workers to bargain collectively. England’s Investigation into Child Labor Railroad Police 1892: a Massachusetts Court upheld the firing of a police officer for violating a statute barring political affiliations, holding that he had no constitutional right to be a police officer, and, therefore, must be bound by the conditions of his contract. The Inquisition was first established in Germany, extended to Spain in 1232, and became a general institution in 1233. The Dominicans were recruited by Conrad of Marburg, Germany to assist in the Inquisition. Later, the Franciscans also were recruited to serve as inquisitors. The inquisitors followed a guide, the Processus inquisitionis (1249).

Unbeknownst to Katz, the FBI was recording his conversations via an electronic eavesdropping device attached to the exterior of the phone booth. Katz was convicted based on these recordings. He challenged his conviction, arguing that the recordings were obtained in violation of his Fourth Amendment rights. The Court of Appeals sided with the FBI because there was no physical intrusion into the phone booth itself. But…. “The Government's activities in electronically listening to and recording the petitioner's words violated the privacy upon which he justifiably relied while using the telephone booth and thus constituted a 'search and seizure' within the meaning of the Fourth Amendment." – Justice Stewart Regardless of the location, a conversation is protected from unreasonable search and seizure under the Fourth Amendment if it is made with a “reasonable expectation of privacy”. Wiretapping counts as a search (physical intrusion is not necessary). The Fifth Amendment provides that no person "shall be compelled in

Ortega,' a plurality of the United States Supreme Court continued an expansion of the "few specifically established and well-delineated exceptions ' 2 to the fourth amendment require- ment that an unconsented search be supported by a warrant based upon probable cause. In O'Connor, the Court affirmed the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit decision 3 that a state government employee has a reasonable expectation of privacy in his desk and file cabinets at his place of work.4 However, the Court reversed the lower court's summary judgment that the government employer's extensive unconsented search of the employee's office, desk, and file cabinets violated his fourth amendment rights.

  • The Practice of Dissent in the Supreme Court
    The Practice of Dissent in the Supreme Court Kevin M. Stack The United States Supreme Court's connection to the ideal of the rule of law is often taken to be the principal basis of the Court's political legitimacy.' In the Supreme Court's practices, however, the ideal of the rule of law and the Court's political legitimacy do not always coincide. This Note argues that the ideal of the rule of law and the Court's legitimacy part company with respect to the Court's practice of dissent. Specifically, this Note aims to demonstrate that the practice of dissent-the tradition of Justices publishing their differences with the judgment or the reasoning of their peers 2-cannot be justified on the basis of an appeal to the ideal of the rule of law, but that other bases of the Court's political legitimacy provide a justification for this practice. The Note thus has two aspirations. First, it seeks to provide a justification for the practice of dissent in the Supreme Court. Second, in pursuit of that I. See, e.g., Earl M. Maltz, The Concept of the Doctrine of the Court in ConstitutionalLaw, 16 GA. L. REV. 357, 402 (1982); cf.Jerry L. Mashaw, Prodelegation:Why Administrators Should Make Political Decisions, I J.L. ECON. & ORGANIZATION 81, 86 (1985) ("A consistent strain of our constitutional politics asserts that legitimacy flows from 'the rule of law."').

  • YOVINO V. RIZO
    Cite as: 586 U. S. ____ (2019) 1 Per Curiam SUPREME COURT OF THE UNITED STATES JIM YOVINO, FRESNO COUNTY SUPERINTENDENT OF SCHOOLS v. AILEEN RIZO ON PETITION FOR WRIT OF CERTIORARI TO THE UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE NINTH CIRCUIT No. 18–272. Decided February 25, 2019 PER CURIAM. The petition in this case presents the following question: May a federal court count the vote of a judge who dies before the decision is issued? A judge on the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit, the Honorable Stephen Reinhardt, died on March 29, 2018, but the Ninth Circuit counted his vote in cases decided after that date.* In the present case, Judge Reinhardt was listed as the author of an en banc decision issued on April 9, 2018, 11 days after he passed away. By counting Judge Reinhardt’s vote, the court deemed Judge Reinhardt’s opinion to be a majority opinion, which means that it constitutes a precedent that all future Ninth Cir- cuit panels must follow. See United States v. Caperna, 251 F. 3d 827, 831, n. 2 (2001). Without Judge Rein- hardt’s vote, the opinion attributed to him would have been approved by only 5 of the 10 members of the en banc panel who were still living when the decision was filed. —————— *In Altera Corp. v. Commissioner, 2018 WL 3542989 (CA9, July 24, 2018), decided four months after Judge Reinhardt died, his vote was initially counted as one of the two judges in the majority. A footnote in the opinion stated: “Judge Reinhardt fully participated in this case and formally concurred in the majority opinion prior to his death.” Id., at *1, n.

  • Civilian Warrant Applications Faqs
    Frequently Asked Questions Concerning Civilian Warrant Applications What is a warrant application hearing? When a civilian makes a written application for the issuance of a criminal arrest warrant, a Judge makes a determination as to whether the application should be set down for a hearing. If the Judge determines that the application should be set down for a hearing, this form is filled out stating the crime alleged and setting down the time, date, and location of the hearing. The Judge delivers one copy to the applicant at the time of the application. The Clerk of Court mails one copy to the defendant at the address provided by the applicant. O.C.G.A. 17-4-40. (b) (1) If application is made for a warrant by a person other than a peace officer or law enforcement officer and the application alleges the commission of an offense against the penal laws, the judge or other officer shall schedule a warrant application hearing as provided in this subsection. O.C.G.A. 17-4-40. (b) (4) At the warrant application hearing, the rules regarding admission of evidence at a commitment hearing shall apply. The person seeking the warrant shall have the customary rights of presentation of evidence and cross- examination of witnesses. The person whose arrest is sought may cross-examine the person or persons applying for the warrant and any other witnesses testifying in support of the application at the hearing. The person whose arrest is sought may present evidence that probable cause does not exist for his or her arrest.

The syllabus constitutes no part of the opinion of the Court but has been prepared by the Reporter of Decisions for the convenience of the reader. See United States v.

CERTIORARI TO THE UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE NINTH CIRCUIT No. 19–1257. Argued March 2, 2021—Decided July 1, 2021* Arizona law generally makes it very easy to vote. Voters may cast their ballots on election day in person at a traditional precinct or a “voting center” in their county of residence. Ariz. Rev. Stat. §16–411(B)(4). Arizonans also may cast an “early ballot” by mail up to 27 days before an election, §§16–541, 16–542(C), and they also may vote in person at an early voting location in each county, §§16–542(A), (E). These cases involve challenges under §2 of the Voting Rights Act of 1965 (VRA) to aspects of the State’s regulations governing precinct-based election- day voting and early mail-in voting. First, Arizonans who vote in per- son on election day in a county that uses the precinct system must vote in the precinct to which they are assigned based on their address. See §16–122; see also §16–135.
