Chapter 275: Helping Him ...... Flutamaide
"Protected by the First Amendment only if it has a serious literary, artistic, political, or scientific significance," Edward muttered to himself, his expression solemn, as if he was touching the nature of the universe or looking for some theoretical basis for the unity of heaven and man, "let me sort it out......
That is, pornography was previously considered to be protected by the First Amendment if it provided "compensable social value," but now ...... It's stricter......"
Ruthberg nodded, "Yes, I think it's a good thing, I'm a woman and I have a lovely underage daughter, and from these standpoints, tightening regulations is a reasonable evolutionary direction." β
Edward frowned, "No, Ruth, I don't think that's necessarily a good thing. The idea is to clearly ignore the needs of ordinary people, who don't have much idea of 'serious literature, art, politics', and who just want to relax when they watch pornography. So, it's hard to find 'noble' in these things, which means they can't be protected by the First Amendment. β
"Huh?" Ruthberg leaned back on the sofa and skillfully crossed Erlang's legs, "You say ...... down"
Edward sat down beside her, frowning, and said, "The simplest, hypothetical hypothetical comedy, which was previously protecting, is obviously not able now, because it does not have 'serious literary, artistic, political, or scientific significance'...... In fact, 99% of Hollywood's films do not have these, yet 99% of the production ratio speaks to the actual needs of citizens. β
"That's right......" Ruthberg rubbed her forehead.
"Ed"
"Huh?"
"Two or two news, one good and one bad, which ...... do you want to listen to first"
"Tsk......" Someone scratched his head, got up from the couch, and kicked the door open.
"What are you going to do?" Roseberg covered her mouth with her hands and screamed, but her voice was soft and her eyebrows raised, apparently a nod to the screaming vase heroine in the B-movie.
"No!" Edward jumped up, hugged Rustberg, and buried his head in her arms without saying anything......
"This is gentleness......" someone muttered to himself
"Ed" Ruthberg didn't expect this guy to be a martial arts officer, so he made a surprise attack, and said that he would do it, and he accidentally said for a while...... "This is the school office"
"I know," replied Edward sullenly, "it's Friday, and everybody is going back for the weekend...... No one will knock on the door......"
"Ed" Ruthberg's voice was a little soft, and the other party's hot snort sprayed directly on her chest through the thin shirt, which made her a little uncomfortable......
"It smells so good...... You're really the flower of Yale......"
"Ed ......"
"I'm very vulnerable, so I choose to listen to the bad news first, in order to prevent me from suddenly falling into a coma and being injured when I hear the bad news, so I have to do a good job of self-defense and protection......"
"Looks like your Boy Scout camp class is good," Roseberg laughed at the scoundrel, and simply stopped struggling and let him go...... Anyway, in the office, forgive him and don't dare to mess around.
"Well, you're not moving?" Someone asked cheaply, and his nose was still arched, "This seems to be boring......
"You look like a pig searching for truffles......" Rustberg was frustrated.
"There is an old Chinese saying that the cabbage makes the pig arch, which shows that the pig is a lucky creature...... If you can arch to the flower of Yale, then any man would like to become a pig. β
The small courtyard on Friday was indeed quiet, and the two frolicked in the office for a long time.
In the end, Ruthberg pushed him away with a flushed face, "Ed, no, no, really no, this is the office...... No, no, this can't, can't...... This is the temple of jurisprudence...... You, you can go to my house tonight! β
Satisfied, Edward would be overjoyed to hear this, and let go.
"Nope! You can lie to me, but watch the times! Every time Judith is looking at you! "Someone has obviously suffered a lot of losses, but in the end they let go.
"Ed, let's be serious...... Here comes the case. The ACLU was annoyed that Miller had lost, so they threw another case. β
"That's the bad news?" Edward asked.
"Of course, my dear Ed," Rustberg's voice softened, and she took two small steps forward, hesitated, feeling that the distance did not seem safe enough, and took a small step back under the pretext of rubbing the information.
"Ed, I envy your talent in law, especially your super memory, and keen eye, which are simply gems......"
"Stop, stop......," Edward raised his hand in surrender, "Alright, I'll know...... You're going to let me be your assistant again......"
"You're so smart!" Ruthberg complimented
"Okay, but my major is constitutional law, isn't that right......"
"Then there's good news...... Rustberg's eyes lit up.
"This time the nine old ones don't ...... Uh, nine justices" Rushberg almost slipped her mouth, but when she saw Edward laughing, she couldn't help but stomp her foot and exclaim, "It's all your fault!" β
This action set off a wave that made someone want to jump into it again, but the waves quickly stopped and quickly faded backwards.
"This time, I'll take you to the Supreme Court! Let's ...... together"
"Clean up those nine old immortals!?" Edward is of a high nature!
This is fucking life!
As a lawyer, it is a supreme honor to be able to talk and laugh in the halls of the Supreme Court.
If you are lucky enough to persuade the justices to adopt their own views, even if it is only once, it is enough to make a name for yourself, whether you enter the administrative agency to become a government lawyer in the future, or run out to practice on your own, it is a major plus item, and you can go to major law schools to give speeches such as "How do I debate with the justices", and in addition to fame and fortune, you can also trick a few students into going to bed and doing it themselves.
If it is said that lawyers are the fast lane for ordinary people in the United States to achieve class jumps, then making a statement in front of the justices is the fast lane in the fast lane, there is no speed limit, as long as your business ability is wild enough.
Edward's choice to become a constitutional appeals lawyer was also motivated by this consideration, as the Supreme Court nominally hears all cases, but in practice has a strong preference for Constitution-related casesβmany of which are related to the First Amendment.
The Constitution is the foundation of the United States and the superior law of all laws.
Due to the federal-state juxtaposition, many federal acts have no jurisdiction over the states, with the exception of the Constitution!
From the government's point of view, the Constitution is the hardest spear of the Union to puncture the judicial autonomy of the states.
In turn, the constitution is the strongest shield for state governments against the federal government's judicial encroachment.
Sometimes, of course, state governments turn against the state and sue the federal government to protect their interests.
In other countries, the constitution usually has little to do with ordinary people's ordinary cases, but the United States is an exception, and an appeal against the constitution is the best way to fight back, and it is also a common routine to turn defeat into victory.
As described in the Sheldon case, Edward's strategy for the judicial battle:
1 Almost all criminal defendants are actually guilty.
2 All defense lawyers, prosecutors, and judges of criminal defendants believe in the first rule.
3 It is much easier to convict a defendant of a crime by means that violates the Constitution than it is permitted by the Constitution, and in many cases it is impossible to convict without violating the Constitution.
And instead of following the prosecutor's line of thought, it is better to simply beat yours, I beat mine, you prove that my client is guilty, I don't care, I directly say that you are unconstitutional, according to the principle of the fruit of the poisonous tree, if there is a flaw in the law enforcement process, the beneficiary must be the prosecuted party.
Yes, constitutional appeals lawyers are popular and popular, but it is not easy to do a good job.
Quick thinking, knowledgeable is the most basic, being a man should be left and right, humorous, he is the best actor when he goes to court, he is angry and happy, as for black and white, vertical and horizontal politics and business, it is a plus project.
After meeting these conditions, you also have to enter a famous school and talk to a famous teacher, so that you can accumulate enough experience to deal with the justices.
Many legal people have never seen these nine old immortals in their lives, and the nine old immortals have different personalities and temperaments, and if they want to figure out their thoughts and ideas, and then do what they like, they can only rely on word of mouth between master and apprentice.
This is an authentic craft, not something that can be learned from the general teaching of an ordinary classroom.
This is the domain of a small number of people, even at Yale.
Luckily, Edward had Rustberg.
The flower of Yale is young, but she has a lot of experience in court and has a legend.
The nine old immortals also have a bit of a headache for this little woman, she is too aggressive, once she occupies the reason, and then she will never stop the storm, and use the law to draw justices constantly.
Until there is a compromise on one side, but who has seen Rustberg compromise?
This kind of almost unreasonable and unbridled behavior usually attracts kind and stern "reminders" or reprimands from the justices, which is the main reason why many excellent lawyers have not performed well in the Supreme Court, and the justices can justifiably deprive lawyers of their right to speak...... This seems very paradoxical, theoretically the most reasonable place, in fact the most unreasonable, from top to bottom everyone thinks that this is the truth.
However, the nine old white men still keep in mind some outdated 19th-century rules of public socialization, such as "don't speak loudly to a lady, don't speak too violently, and don't go against gentlemanliness", which puts them in a more painful defensive situation......
It is precisely that Ruthberg is unforgiving, and between one in and one out, although there are nine justices, they are naturally at a disadvantage when facing her.
So much so that it was rumored that during the closed-door meetings of the Nine Old Immortals, it was repeatedly proposed that two female justices should be brought out as soon as possible to prevent people like Rustberg from using the law as a shield to kill all sides in the high court.
The ACLU's refusal to use Roseberg as trial counsel in the Miller case was also based on this consideration, the case was relatively simple, so there was no need to use her to duel with the nine justices, and good steel should be used on the cutting edge.
This is also the first time that Rustberg has agreed to take him to the Supreme Court to meet the world, which means that at this moment Edward is no longer an ordinary student in her eyes, but a close assistant or even a comrade-in-arms who can be back-to-back.
"Deal!" Edward gritted his teeth.
"But well, I'm poor, Yale's salary isn't high, the ACLU doesn't provide much stipends, and I have to raise Judith...... There's not a lot of money to pay you, so you have to think about that! Hey, I don't think you're very reluctant. If it doesn't work, I'll find someone else to settle it......"
"Willingly, willingly. I don't want a penny! Someone nodded and laughed.
The next second, he hugged each other directly and kissed him.
Roseberg symbolically struggled twice, and then let it go, and both sides felt that the other tasted good, sweet and delicious.
"That's your deposit," Edward looked at the flushed teacher and said, "When the case is over, I'll be paid in full......"
"Really?" Ruthberg's amber eyes blinked, bright and moving, with a slight wicked smile "I'm generous...... But the lawsuit must be won! β
"Words count!"
"Of course! When did I lie to you? β
"Yes, you really don't lie! You always let out that little devil when it counts...... Oh...... Wrong...... Little angels are here to watch over you! Edward's fists clenched, his expression hideous, "Every time!" β
"Well, you're right. If you try hard enough and can convince the nine old immortals, don't ,......" Rushberg suddenly stopped, apparently realizing that she had said the wrong thing.
"As long as you can convince the five old immortals...... Belch...... Five justices, then I could consider sending Judith to her grandparents' house for two weeks during winter break, they love her ...... I didn't feel comfortable doing this before, after all, Brooklyn has always had security problems, but now I hear that you seem to be pretty open there......"
"I'll trust you again!"
"No, Eddard ......"
"Huh?"
"You've always believed in me...... And as long as I ...... Oh no, you'll always trust me if you want to, won't you! β
"Hell, don't look at me with that expression, I'm about to lose my control" Edward's eyes were red, which meant that the blood was bursting through some of the capillaries under his eyes, and the blood vessels in other parts of the eyes were also starting to congest.
At this moment, Ruthberg's short golden red hair is scattered in front of his forehead, looking like he was lazy when he first got up, his originally pale face is faintly flushed, and there is still a little confusion in his watery eyes...... Indeed......
In an instant, Edward had an impulse, and he knew that if he did do it, the other party might not resist......
It's just that, in the next second, he immediately calmed down......
The hard stuff was on his lower abdomen, which made him a little trance, is this the other way around?
"Hehe, I've always had a knife with me......"
Rustberg explained with a smile, "Only after you finish your work can you be eligible to receive money...... You can't break the rules of the road, you're right......"
With that, the sheathed knife left his lower abdomen and swung downward......
Edward is out of body!
"You're going to make me mentally handicapped......"
"No, you're taking yourself too lightly......"
"You just pushed too hard...... It hurts, it's best, it's better to help me rub it? "Hippie smiley face's request......
"yes, I'm sorry, I'll be gentle next time, such as using fluoride to get ......"
"Help him ......? What is it? Edward gasped for no apparent reason, and although it was the first time he had heard the name, his instincts told him that it was the most dangerous thing to do with tigers and wolves......
"You know, I campaigned to protect the rights and interests of children, in order to deal with those copper fetish, many organizations proposed chemical castration of these guys, flutamad is the most commonly used chemical castration drug, its pharmacological effect is that the androgen antagonist used by anti-androgens binds to androgen receptors and competitively inhibits DHT and works...... The advantage is that it has a light taste and can be served in coffee or other bitter beverages. β
