Just like you did in assignment 2.1, you will create a 1-2 page single-spaced Analysis of Research abstract published scholarly articles related to a topic you selected in 2.2. However, this time you need to review a different methodology than you previously did (i.e. if you reviewed a quantitative article in 2.1, you will do a qualitative one in 2.2 and vice versa). Brevity and being concise are important as this analysis is intended to be a brief summation of the research. Each abstract must therefore consist of the following in this order: 1. Bibliographic Citation – use the correctly formatted APA style citation for the work as the title of your abstract, displaying the full citation in bold font. 2. Author Qualifications – name and qualification of each author conducting the research 3. Research Concern – one paragraph summary of the reason for the overall research topic 4. Research Purpose Statement AND Research Questions or Hypotheses – specific focus of the research 5. Precedent Literature – key literature used in proposing the needed research (not the full bibliography or reference list) 6. Research Methodology – description of the population, sample, and data gathering techniques used in the research 7. Instrumentation – description of the tools used to gather data (surveys, tests,interviews, etc.) 8. Findings – summation of what the research discovered and the types of analysis that were used to describe the findings (tables, figures, and statistical measures) Additional information on writing scholarly abstracts can be found via this below link https://writingcenter.unc.edu/tips-and-tools/abstracts/ See completed example

Using SAS and the EMMA dataset, generate a correlation matrix (table) that outputs the correlations between TENURE, AGE, ORDERS. From the SAS output, which pair of variables has the lowest correlation? What is the correlation value for this pair of variables? And what is the probability of getting this correlation simply by chance? How many records did SAS use in this calculation? Hint – you can edit/modify any of the prior code used in the HWs that analyzed the EMMA dataset to generate these correlations. Then examine the SAS results/output for the answer.

Today at noon, an undercover, Federal Agent, Hans Cuff arranged a briefing at the sheriff’s department. All the ATF agents, Grantham County Deputies, and University City Officers involved in the drug investigation regarding the large shipment of meth were present for this meeting. Cuff informed the officers that the confidential informant, Mookie, called him this morning to fill him in on the details of the shipment of meth. Mookie told Cuff to be at 123 Elm Street, University City, at 3:00 p.m.; this is when and where the delivery of meth will take place. After the briefing, Cuff was fitted with a wire so the other officers could hear what was transpiring in the house. All the officers received their instructions on where to post around the house and down the street so as not to draw attention to themselves. At 2:45 p.m., Agent Cuff arrived at 123 Elm Street and knocked at the door.

Official Misconduct
Prologue:
Today at noon, an undercover, Federal Agent, Hans Cuff arranged a briefing at the sheriff’s
department. All the ATF agents, Grantham County Deputies, and University City Officers
involved in the drug investigation regarding the large shipment of meth were present for this
meeting.
Cuff informed the officers that the confidential informant, Mookie, called him this morning to fill
him in on the details of the shipment of meth. Mookie told Cuff to be at 123 Elm Street,
University City, at 3:00 p.m.; this is when and where the delivery of meth will take place. After
the briefing, Cuff was fitted with a wire so the other officers could hear what was transpiring in
the house. All the officers received their instructions on where to post around the house and
down the street so as not to draw attention to themselves. At 2:45 p.m., Agent Cuff arrived at
123 Elm Street and knocked at the door.
Mookie answered the door and told Cuff to come inside; once Cuff stepped into the house,
Mookie shut the door behind him. All of a sudden, Dreadford grabbed Cuff’s right arm and
another male who Cuff did not know grabbed his left arm. Mookie put a gun to the back of Cuff’s
head and told him to kneel.
Cuff slowly kneeled to the floor; he said, “The same thing happened to me in Vegas” (This was
the safe phrase to alert the other officers that Cuff was in trouble). In no time at all, several
officers kicked in the front and back doors, entered the house, and held all three suspects at
gunpoint. The officers arrested Mookie, Dreadford, and the other male identified as Pedro
Ramirez without incident. After reading the suspects Miranda warnings, both Dreadford and
Ramirez asked for an attorney, so the officers booked these two into the county jail.
Mookie was the only one who agreed to talk but only if he could get a deal. Detective
Stubblefield said he would speak to the county prosecutor and see what he could do. However,
the deal was dependent on the value of the information. Mookie told Detective Stubblefield that
the dispatcher dating Dreadford is the one who gave them all the confidential information on the
city and county’s drug investigations. Mookie asked Detective Stubblefield if the information
was good enough to get a deal.
Detective Stubblefield said, “I believe it is.” Detective Stubblefield put Mookie into protective
custody and booked him in the county jail where the correctional officers will make sure to
segregate Mookie from other inmates.
Based on the information Mookie provided, Stubblefield received a warrant to search
Badpenny’s house. When the officers served the warrant, and arrested and charged Imogene
Badpenny with possession of methamphetamines (felony), possession of drug paraphernalia
(misdemeanor), and official misconduct (misdemeanor) (using her position at the sheriff’s office
to access confidential information for personal gain). While at Badpenny’s house, the officers’
uncovered evidence to collaborate Mookie’s story about the documents Badpenny obtained for
Dreadford regarding the drug investigations.
After Badpenny’s arrest, the sheriff fired her, and with the loss of her job, Badpenny did not have
enough money to hire an attorney. During Badpenny’s arraignment, Judge Noble Hands had
Badpenny fill out indigent paperwork to request a public defender and set her bond at $50,000.
Badpenny was not able to post bond given her financial situation, so she returned to the jail
where Badpenny will stay until her next court appearance.
Assignment:
This week use the information in chapters 8 and 9 to complete a 2 to 3 – page paper, discussing
the ethical system that explains why Badpenny’s gave Dreadford confidential information, and
how indigency affects an offender’s ability to receive competent council. Also, analyze how
conflicts of interest may occur with attorneys (both prosecution and defense) along with the
judge in the above scenario.
*Hint: remember, Badpenny has worked for the sheriff’s department for years and lives in the
community; she probably knows all of the attorneys and judges.
Type all papers in Times New Roman 12pt font – include the header, title page, and
reference page; APA formatting is required in this course. Use at least two scholarly
reference sources such as the textbook and scholarly peer-reviewed articles obtained
from the Grantham Library. Additional references may be procured from the Internet.
Citing your references by using parenthetical citations (in-text citations) is a skill that
each student must demonstrate in this course.

Sherry Shyster filed for a divorce after two years of marriage to Harvey Shyster. During the Shysters brief marriage, the couple only purchased a pickup truck and camper trailer for 30,000. Sherry owned quite a bit of personal property like a home and acreage, which is all premarital assets. However, Harvey turned out to be a gold digger and was trying to get possession of Sherry’s home and acreage. During the separation, Sherry and Harvey agreed to take turns paying for the truck and recreational camper until the divorce was final. Harvey did not hold up his end of the agreement; Sherry had to make all the payments for the truck and camper. The extra expense each month was straining to Sherry’s bank account. Sherry asked Harvey if he would work out a property settlement without going to court to expedite the divorce. Harvey refused and has delayed the divorce for two years. Finally, Sherry’s attorney, Casey Hardcase, was able to get a court date to finalize the divorce in Judge Ditcher’s court.

Week 5 Case Study
Prologue:
Sherry Shyster filed for a divorce after two years of marriage to Harvey Shyster. During the
Shysters brief marriage, the couple only purchased a pickup truck and camper trailer for 30,000.
Sherry owned quite a bit of personal property like a home and acreage, which is all premarital
assets. However, Harvey turned out to be a gold digger and was trying to get possession of
Sherry’s home and acreage.
During the separation, Sherry and Harvey agreed to take turns paying for the truck and
recreational camper until the divorce was final. Harvey did not hold up his end of the
agreement; Sherry had to make all the payments for the truck and camper. The extra expense
each month was straining to Sherry’s bank account. Sherry asked Harvey if he would work out a
property settlement without going to court to expedite the divorce. Harvey refused and has
delayed the divorce for two years. Finally, Sherry’s attorney, Casey Hardcase, was able to get a
court date to finalize the divorce in Judge Ditcher’s court.
When the divorce proceedings started,
Judge Ditcher said, “I do not like to waste the court’s time in divorce hearings like this one that
could have been settled outside of my courtroom.”
When Sherry’s attorney, Hardcase stood up to present his opening statement,
Judge Ditcher said, “Make it quick; I do not have all day for your ramblings.”
When Harvey’s attorney, R. N. Hyde, stood up to state his opening statement, Judge Ditcher
was courteous and friendly and listened intently to what Hyde had to say. Once Hyde finished
giving his opening statement,
Judge Ditcher said, “Before court today I had an opportunity to review this case and I am ready
to make a judgment.” Hardcase stood up to give his closing statement, and
Judge Ditcher said in a loud voice, “Shut up and sit down.”
Hardcase looked down shook his head and then looked over at Sherry, and just shrugged his
shoulders, and sat down.
Judge Ditcher looked over at Sherry and said, “Mrs. Shyster, from what I have read about this
case, I believe you are bitter about this divorce.”
Sherry stood and said, “Excuse me your honor, but I filed for the divorce. I am not bitter; I just
wanted the divorce to be over with; this divorce has lasted longer than my marriage. I want to
get on with my life.”
In a thundering voice, Judge Ditcher said to Sherry, “Do not interrupt me again, or I will hold you
in contempt.” Sherry quickly sat down.
Judge Ditcher said, “I will try to continue, and hopefully there will not be any further
interruptions. For the property settlement, I have decided that Sherry Shyster will continue to
pay for the truck and camper while Harvey Shyster attempts to sell it. Once these items are
sold and after the loan is paid off any money left over will be split between the two parties.”
Judge Ditcher continued; “In addition to the truck and camper payment, Sherry will also pay for
Harvey’s attorney fees and court costs. I hereby grant the divorce on the grounds of
incompatibility, are there any questions… I did not think so, court adjourned!”
Sherry was dumbfounded and leaned over to Hardcase and said, “What just happened? I have
never heard of anything like this happening in our court system; I feel like I have just been
railroaded. Judge Ditcher has an apparent bias towards me, and I do not know why.”
Hardcase said, “Sherry, I am sorry this has happened, but I am not sure what to do at this point,
my hands are tied.”
Sherry asks, “What do you mean your hands are tied?”
Hardcase replied, “Well…I know that Harvey’s attorney R. N. Hyde is a good friend of Judge
Ditcher. Hyde and Ditcher frequently play golf on the weekends, and their families go on
vacations together. However, I did not think Judge Ditcher would allow his personal life to
influence him in the courtroom; I am truly disappointed.”
Sherry asked Hardcase, “Isn’t his relationship with Hyde a conflict of interest and a valid
argument that Judge Ditcher should have recused himself from this hearing?”
Assignment:
In 2 to 3 paragraphs, a minimum of 250 words, apply the ethical issues for judges and how
conflict of interests and the use of discretion can be problematic in regards to the scenario
above.
