Marbury v. Madison (1803)
Background: In 1800, John Adams, the outgoing President of the United States, appointed several justices of the peace for the District of Columbia, including William Marbury. These appointments were made in the final days of Adams’ presidency, and the commissions for these appointments were not delivered before the end of his term. Thomas Jefferson, the incoming President, instructed his Secretary of State, James Madison, not to deliver the commissions. Marbury and several others who had been appointed but not received their commissions petitioned the Supreme Court for a writ of mandamus, a court order requiring Madison to deliver the commissions. Issue: The primary issue in the case was whether the Supreme Court had the authority to issue writs of mandamus, as specified in the Judiciary Act of 1789, Section 13.

Jazlowiecki Law Joins National Effort to Sue e-Cigarette Manufacturers
BRISTOL, CT (WFSB) — A Connecticut attorney is starting the process of legally attacking the e-cigarette and vaping industry. This legal action will take aim at stopping the growth of the industry that’s accused of targeting teens. “What they are doing is, they are getting kids addicted and children’s lungs and brains are more sensitive to the bad chemicals,” said attorney Edward Jazlowiecki.

The plan is for a massive class action suit. The attorney says he expects the first of the suits to come within days in California and the other…
