You fall while biking and are taken to the local emergency room. A physician looks at your arm and determines that they cannot make a diagnosis without an x-ray.She sends you to a radiologist who takes your x-rays. After looking at them, the radiologist misreads your x-ray and tells the attending physician that you only have a bad sprain but you actually have a broken wrist. The physician trusts the radiologist’s diagnosis and wraps your wrist with an elastic bandage and discharges you. Your wrist heals on its own but you end up with ongoing pain, especially when you type. You sue both the radiologist and the physician for malpractice. Explain how the four conditions of negligence would need to be demonstrated against both the radiologist and the physician before you could successfully prevail in each case. Would the radiologist be treated any differently than the physician with respect to liability?

Explain the limitations on the First Amendment and provide at least two examples as part of your answer. Explain also how corporations are treated in regard to the First Amendment freedom of expression.

With the fairly recent protests and attacks on some of the United States’ foreign embassies, some have called for the arrest of the filmmaker responsible for creating the film that prompted the attacks.The film, titled “Innocence of Muslims” depicts Muhammad in an unfavorable light. What First Amendment implications would arresting the filmmaker have, assuming the arrest is directly related to his creation of the film? (For those of you who followed this, the filmmaker was arrested, but it was for an unrelated matter). Is there any way his speech could be construed as not being within the protections of the First Amendment?
The Fourth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution states: “The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.”The Patriot Act, passed in 2001, authorized the U.S. Government to begin a recently revealed secret spying program on all U.S. citizens, gathering massive amounts of data on the public & claiming that only getting the “meta data” does not require probable cause.
