I spoke with Andy Appiah-Kubi before filing the application to help Chairman Wontumi, only for him to turn around and publicly deny any knowledge of it. How do you betray someone like that? I've blocked his number and won't speak to him again. This is not how colleagues should behave - Gary Nimako Marfo, Director of Legal Affairs, New Patriotic Party.

In Kennedy v. Braidwood Management, Inc. the Supreme Court will consider "Whether the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 5th Circuit erred in holding that the structure of the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force violates the Constitution's appointments clause and in declining to sever the statutory provision that it found to unduly insulate the task force from the Health & Human Services secretary’s supervision."In Kennedy v. Braidwood Management, Inc., several Christian-owned businesses, along with six individuals in Texas, brought suit alleging that the Affordable Care Act's preventative services coverage requirement was illegal and unconstitutional. They contend it violates the Religious Freedom Restoration Act, as the ACA required them to fund preventative services that conflicted with their religious beliefs, and that it violates the Constitution’s Appointments Clause, given the controlling effect of a non-appointed advisory body over which preventative treatments were required. Given those issues, the case sits at an interesting intersection of health law, religious liberty law, and administrative procedure, and the Supreme Court is set to hear oral argument on April 21, 2025.Join us for a Courthouse Steps program where we break down and analyse how oral argument went before the Court.Featuring:Timothy Sandefur, Vice President for Legal Affairs, Goldwater Institute

Send us a textCALIFORNIA UPDATE:I mentioned on last week's program that I would tell you more about our recent trip to Southern California, where our family received the “Family of the Year” award by the U.S. Tennis Association. In the opening segment of the program, I will recount some of the highlights, including a Christian Worldview Partner luncheon at Grace Community Church in Los Angeles, along with visits to KKLA 99.5 FM (who broadcasts The Christian Worldview each Saturday at 8am) and Living Waters to see Ray Comfort and Co.------------------------Later in the program, we will discuss the issue of judges ruling against President Trump's executive orders. In the first 100 days of the Trump administration, Democrats have been staggering as Trump and his team execute a kind of blitzkrieg against liberal policies. But it was inevitable that the left would fight back and now their strategy is apparent—use leftist judges appointed by Obama and Biden to stymie Trump's orders.But do unelected judges really have the authority to overturn the orders of a nationally-elected president? Has Trump overstepped presidential authority when it comes to such things as cutting government spending and deporting those who entered our country illegally, including a Columbia graduate student who calls for the destruction of Israel?Daniel Schmid, a constitutional attorney and Associate Vice President of Legal Affairs for Liberty Counsel, an international nonprofit, litigation, education, and policy organization dedicated to advancing religious freedom, the sanctity of life, and the family, will join us this weekend on The Christian Worldview to discuss the showdown between the Trump administration and the third branch of government.----------------------->> Short highlight video from Ray Comfort

The government and the people and the enterprises are working really hard to get people to come here and try out this country. Take the risk on Vietnam. It's fun, it's exciting. It's relatively inexpensive enough for you to start a business, and if it fails, you can try again. It's not a big deal. If you want to move your family here, the schools are great, and if it doesn't work out, you can go back to your country. But I think now is a great time, because the next 10 years, there'll be a lot of economic growth and opportunities for you to take a risk and a chance on Vietnam

Wenn Schauspielerinnen und Schauspieler über ihren Beruf und auch über die Tücken ihrer Branche sprechen, taucht manchmal das Narrativ von der "ungeliebten Auszeichnung" auf. Da wird er einem verliehen, der Super-Preis, Anerkennung auf ganzer Ebene, Kritik und Publikum jubeln - und danach gibt es für die Ausgezeichneten erstmal keinen Job mehr. Kann man sich gar nicht vorstellen, ist aber immer wieder so. Auch unser heutiger Gast, die Schauspielerin Lavinia Wilson, steckte schon in einer solchen Situation. Nach dem Max-Ophüls-Preis 2004 standen, wie man so schön sagt, die Telefone für ein Jahr quasi still. Schaut man sich die Filmografie, also all die Projekte, die Frau Wilson in ihrem Leben so gedreht hat, mal an, kann man sie im Nachhinein zu dieser Pause oder diesem Luftschnappen eigentlich nur beglückwüschen. Mit 11 kam sie zum Film und dort ist sie bis heute, Frau Böhm sagt Nein, Quellen des Lebens, Deutschland 86, Legal Affairs, zwischendurch aber studierte die 1980 in München geborene Mutter dreier Söhne auch noch. Aktuell ist Lavinia Wilson in einer neuen Netflix-Serie zu sehen, aber bevor wir auf die zu sprechen kommen, lassen wir uns von ihr gerne durch die wichtigsten und lustigsten Stationen ihres Lebens begleiten.

E.M.D. Sales, Inc. v. Carrera concerns what standard of evidence the court should apply in cases of exceptions to the Fair Labor Standards Act. The District Court decided that E.M.D. was liable for some employee overtime because it did not prove by clear and convincing evidence that its sales representatives were outside salesmen. Therefore, they were not exempt from normal overtime rules. The Fourth Circut agreed, affirming the use of the clear-and-convincing evidence standard.On January 15th, 2025, the Supreme Court, in a 9-0 decision, reversed the Fourth Circut’s decision and remanded the case. In an opinion by Justice Kavanaugh, it held that the preponderance-of-the-evidence standard applies when an employer seeks to show that an employee is exempt from the minimum wage and overtime pay provisions of the Fair Labor Standards Act.Featuring:Michael J.

E.M.D. Sales, Inc. v. Carrera concerns what standard the court should apply in cases of exceptions to the Fair Labor Standards Act. This act governs such limitations as hours worked, overtime pay, and working conditions across the United States. Several provisions within it exempt certain industries from some requirements, and this case deals with the burden of proof on a corporation to prove that an employee should be exempt from these rules.The plaintiffs in this case are two employees of a food distribution company, who sued for overtime benefits citing the Fair Labor Standards Act. The company argued that their positions were those of salesmen, who are normally exempted from overtime pay rules. The plaintiffs allege that making sales was a secondary part of their numerous responsibilities that were not overtime exempt. The district court agreed that E.M.D failed to prove a sales exemption, and the Fourth Circut Court of Appeals affirmed.Currently, the case is before the Supreme Court, with oral arguments on November 5th. Join Michael O'Neill, Vice President of Legal Affairs at Landmark Legal Foundation, and Cheryl Stanton, Chief Legal and Government Affairs Officer at BrightStar Care, as they review oral arguments and discuss this case and its implications.Featuring:Michael J.
