    1 Bound By Oath | Season 2 | Episode 5: Under Color of Law John:​ In 1958, at 5:45 in the morning, Chicago police burst into the home of James and Flossie Monroe and dragged them out of bed at gunpoint. And they scared the hell out James and Flossie’s six children. Houston Stevens:​ The children we made a lot of noise. We screamed. We did a lot of yelling to alert all the neighbors. Cause we didn't know who these were. It was 14 white guys armed with pistols drawn. Jacqui Abrams:​ They pulled out a picture and showed me a picture. “Is this James Monroe?” Of course it is! Yes, that's him, but who are you? Ralph Stevens:​ All I can say is that I tried to block it out like a nightmare because it felt like, and I lived that way for many, many years growing up, like it was a nightmare. It was denial -- my way to suppress and deny how traumatic it was. John:​ James Monroe had not committed the crime he’d been accused of, and the police did not have a warrant to search his home or arrest him. So the family sued, seeking damages from the officers. But rather than suing in state court, James and Flossie did something that Congress had said they could do way back in 1871. They filed suit against the officers in federal court under Section One of the Ku Klux Klan Act. Today Section One is known as Section 1983. And it’s one of the most important and most frequently litigated civil rights laws on the books.

  • Cops Use Polygraph Less Often
    Friday, November 29, 2013 Cops use polygraph less often Examiners now questioning job hopefuls, fewer crime suspects BY DUAA ELDEIB After decades of relying on controversial polygraph examinations to help solve crimes, the Chicago Police Department has drastically scaled back on giving so-called lie-detector tests in the course of criminal investigations. In what appears to be a shift in focus, the department’s polygraph unit examiners, who previously worked under the forensic services division, have been relocated to human resources, where their primary responsibility is administering the tests to police officer candidates. The examiners’ new unit follows industry standards for conducting polygraphs. The move was said to be temporary, but one year later, the examiners are still with the personnel unit. “The temporary detail was made to address the backlog in pre-employment screenings needs,” police spokesman Adam Collins said. “There hasn’t been a move away from polygraphs as a part of criminal investigations.” Collins did not say how long the three Center on Wrongful Convictions client Nicole examiners would remain with human Harris, to whom a polygraph examiner lied, resources, which has seen a significant saying she’d failed the test. increase in the number of pre-employment polygraphs. He said only that it would be Yet the number of criminal polygraphs has “until the need has been met.” The examiners dropped considerably, from about 400 in continue to conduct criminal polygraphs as 2011 to 50 in the first eight months of 2013. the need arises, Collins said. The timing of the examiners’ move to the personnel unit corresponded with a Tribune investigation into the polygraph unit’s role in obtaining false confessions.

    CHAPTER 1 Introduction to Monetary Damages Chapter Contents § 1.01 Introduction § 1.02 Historical Background to Monetary Damages § 1.03 General Principles of Monetary Damages [1] Determining Whether Injuries May Be Compensated by Damages [a] Proximate Cause [b] The Standard of Certainty [2] Calculating the Damages Award [a] Compensatory Damages [i] Market Value Measure [ii] Lost Opportunity Measure [b] Unjust Enrichment [c] Augmented Damages [i] Punitive Damages [ii] Statutory Enhanced Damages [d] Interest [e] Attorneys’ Fees and Costs § 1.01 Introduction Monetary damages are a form of judicial remedy that can be awarded to a claimant in compensation for an injury or loss wrong- fully inflicted.1 This form of remedy is most commonly referred to simply as “damages.” The essence of damages is the payment of money as a release from civil liability. 1 See 1 Dobbs Law of Remedies, 3 (2d ed. 1993). 1-1 (Rel. 24) § 1.01 INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY DAMAGES 1-2 Because damages in Anglo-American jurisprudence are awarded by a jury of lay persons under the supervision of a judge, it is neces- sary to have certain guiding principles by which the judge can direct the jury. The rules that were developed by the judiciary to guide juries in their damages deliberations are essentially the law of damages. As one commentator has said: “The law of damages consists of the rules, standards, and methods used by the courts for measuring in money the compensation given for losses and injuries.”2 The law of intellectual property damages did not develop in a vac- uum; it is very much a product of this general law of damages.

  • Amazon and IMDB Sued for Not Respecting Elders | Page 1
    Amazon And IMDB Sued FOr Not Respecting Elders | Page 1 Amazon And IMDB Sued FOr Not Respecting Elders By: Jack Greiner on October 19, 2011 on graydon.law Well, sort of. An actress who identifies herself as Jane Doe has sued the Internet Movie Database Web site, and its parent company, Amazon, for revealing her actual age. I’m not making that up. Here’s the actual complaint, which was filed in a federal court in Seattle. In case you haven’t used it, IMDB is a Web site that has detailed information on any movie ever made. I personally love it. I can’t tell you the number of times I’ve watched a movie on TV and wondered who the actor was in some small role, and where I’d seen him before. IMDB has all that information. But I digress. According to the complaint, Jane Doe is of Asian descent, and her given name is difficult for Americans to spell and pronounce. She has for that reason used a stage name throughout her career. She is also very careful not to provide personal information, including her true age. According to the complaint, “[i]n the entertainment industry, youth is king. If one is perceived to be “over-the-hill” i.e., approaching 40, it is nearly impossible for an up-and-coming actress, such as plaintiff, to get work.” IMDB also offers a service called IMDbPro, which offers “industry insider” information to paying customers. Ms. Doe signed up for the service and in so doing, provided her name, birth date and other personal information.
