This case study presents an incident that occurred in Bridges Bay Public Library. The director of the library, Joseph Calenda, has to decide what should be done about the homeless people, standing in the lobby of the library. Calenda is the manager being graded on in this case study. Due to the cold weather, a group of homeless people stood in the lobby to stay warm. Many of the patrons visiting the library complained about their presence and the director convened a meeting with the department heads to discuss what should be done. They decide to do nothing and the group except for a woman leave when it starts to get warmer outside. The woman left a few hours later. However, the next day she appeared again, with no signs of leaving. A custodian who asked her to leave received a blank stare in response. The patrons’ complaints grew, and another meeting was held. In the meeting, topics such as laws regarding vagrancy and whether to call the police was discussed and debated. The assistant director, Bridget O’Dea, brought up a valid point about the homeless from an ethical standpoint. Her argument is that as a society one should help those who cannot help themselves (). She believes that the library should let the woman stay since she is not doing any

Facts of the Case: Monte Durham has an extensive history of imprisonment due to breaking the law and hospitalization due to mental illness after every conviction. In every case, he was deemed of having an unsound mind. After 15 months of treatment, in one particular case, Durham was discharged from the mental hospital and returned to jail to serve the remainder of his sentence. After his release, Durham received a warrant for parole violation and fled the area. He was arrested again for bad checks. He was sent back to the District. Once again, the parole board sent him to a lunacy inquisition hearing where he was readmitted to the hospital. This time the diagnosis was "without mental disorder, psychopathic personality." And he was discharged for the third time.
Tim Bosma was a church going, fun, and caring a son to Mary and Hank Bosma, a husband to Sharlene Bosma, and a father to a five-year- old daughter (Adam Carter and Nil Koksal, 2016). On the evening of May 6, 2013, he was last seen with two men who went for a test drive in a vehicle that Tim was selling. Tim Bosma was shot and stuck into a livestock incinerator located on the accused, Dellen Millard’s, farm and the totality of the evidence provided proof that the remains found were of Tim Bosma (Cambridge Times, 2013). There were three parties to the crime, two accused and an accessory after the fact. Both accused are sentenced to a life of prison and the possibility of parole after 25 years (Paola Loriggio and Liam Casey, 2016). The individual, Noudga, being the accessory after the fact was only given a sentence of 2 years of house arrest after serving 4 years in prison, for pleading guilty to obstructing justice by destroying evidence (Adam Carter, 2016).

Every human has rights to practice their religions. In this week’s reading, we read about the In Re Brown case. This case is about two felonies committed by the 20-year-old daughter Andrea, who shot her mother Mattie Brown, as she was only the eyewitness to the murder Andrea committed.

Mattie was only the eyewitness against Andrea Ruby’s case so hospital performs blood transfusion despite for her religions belief. Mattie Brown insisted
Under the RCW 11.28.120, the persons entitled to letter looks reasonable to me. It started from the closest person in general and goes on. I believe out of all those individuals on the list, one of them will be able to serve in most case before it goes to the court to appoint a person to administer. However, I would probably add an extra individual called “significant others”. In these days, there are many couples whose been together for long time as husband and wife, but choose not to officially get marry. In such case, I think they might end up going to fall under suitable person appointed by the court. I think the court should add the “significant others” on the list, but they will need to prove to the court the relationship between decedent.
