She developed an interest in hydroponics and hybridizing plants and began growing plants under full-spectrum sunlight lamps in her home.

One day, a police officer investigating a burglary next door, came to Flora’s home to ask if she had seen anything.

She wants to appeal the decision.Scenario TwoMr. Frank Incense was arrested for theft when he took $500,000 worth of tools from behind a neighbor’s shed which faced an alley. Frank insisted that he thought the tools were being thrown away. He was having financial difficulty and thought he could make some money by selling the tools. While being questioned, Frank asked for an attorney. Finally he was provided with an attorney who specialized in Bankruptcy Law, and who was required to take on criminal cases pro bono. The attorney really did not understand criminal procedure, and as a result, Mr. Insence was not only found guilty, but also received a very stiff sentence. Mr. Insence wants to appeal his case because he believes that he not only had a right to counsel, but a right to counsel who was competent in handling criminal proceedings.Scenario ThreeJoe Valle and Fred Hamper have been partners for many years.

Her parents understood her feelings on the subject. Joanna married Bill Spring and, one month later, was involved in an auto accident, which left her in a persistent vegetative state. Joanna’s parents (Mr. and Mrs. John Winters) have sued to have Joanna taken off life support. Joanna’s husband refused to allow the hospital to do so. Joanna’s parents think that it is only because he will not inherit Joanna’s huge estate unless he has been married to her for more than two years.
