Like all papers you’ll submit, formatting is: 1” margins all around, double-spaced, Times New
Roman, 12-point font. No headers, extra spaces between paragraphs – none of the little tricks
that take up space.
There is a 3-page minimum, which I equate to an “average” score, or a 3. If you want a better
score, then do more than the minimum required work. I can tell when a student has done the
work and when they have waited until the last minute to throw something together. Don’t be in
that latter group.
You must answer the following three questions:
Question 1:
Interstate commerce refers to business transactions between individuals or businesses from two
or more states. You’ve learned that Congress uses interstate commerce as a tool to force
businesses to comply with the Civil Rights Act of 1964. Go to:
https://supreme.justia.com/cases/federal/us/379/24…
to read, in depth, a case referenced in your book: The Heart of Atlanta Motel v. The United
States.
Tell me what the main arguments are for both the Plaintiff and the Defendant. Tell me how the
Supreme Court ruled and why. I want to see facts and analysis in your paper that are not included
in the book.
Question 2:
Private clubs are exempt from the Civil Rights Act. Go to:
https://casetext.com/case/lobel-v-woodland-golf-cl…
Tell me what the main arguments are for both the Plaintiff and the Defendant. Tell me how the
court ruled and why. Question 3:
Nevada Revised Statute 651.065 says “….is not unlawful and is not a ground for a civil action for
any place of public accommodation to offer differential pricing, discounted pricing or special
offers based on sex to promote or market the place of public accommodation.”
Under Nevada law a “place of public accommodation” includes a nightclub, which are very
popular in Las Vegas.
So, basically, Nevada says it is legal to intentionally discriminate against men when it comes to
charging entry fees to nightclubs. In other words, it is legally permissible for a nightclub to charge
men a $40 entry fee but to allow women to enter for free. That decision is based solely on gender.
Is Nevada’s law actually legal? Does it conflict with a more superior law? If so, which one? What
are your personal thoughts on this?FINISH IT BEFORE 12/2 9 p.m
