SCENARIO You are the project manager of a civil engineering company. Your current project is a large-scale (100 miles) construction project that is restoring a portion of the wetlands in coastal Louisiana and SE Texas. Although the project is environmentally beneficial, the local community has taken issue with the inconvenience of heavy construction in its midst. Currently, you are building a series of temporary access roads so that you can get equipment to one of the low-lying areas. This project involves a convoy of heavy trucks. Your firm has received numerous complaints from local residents about the noise and dust. In particular, you’ve received three letters from the same woman, Winnifred Doucette Lejeune. The last letter contained 10 additional signatures. The majority of the community is a minority population that identifies as Cajun, many of which are of low socioeconomic status. In the letters from the community, residents assert that they are being discriminated against because their opinion was not solicited regarding the construction. In fact, in going through project records, it appears residents were not consulted as the project was planned. Communication is necessary. If residents’ complaints continue to escalate, they could slow down the project and put this environmentally important project behind schedule. You make a trip from the office headquarters in Lafayette, LA to the Calcasieu/Sabine Coastal Wetlands Planning, Protection, and Restoration Area to see what’s going on. On site, you see that everything seems to be progressing fine. Workers are on the job by 7:00am and running until almost sundown, but in the local bar and grill, all the talk is about “the darn government project to nowhere” and “what gives them the right to do this here?” When you get back to the office you decide you need to take action.

SCENARIO You are the technical manager of a large Internet design firm (100+ employees). One of your primary responsibilities is to manage a team of developers. Your unit’s primary goal is to build and deliver custom web applications and to update client websites. About 8 months ago you hired a small start-up company, MaintainU, to perform routine maintenance for clients’ websites because you needed to focus more attention on the custom applications. MaintainU does not interact with your clients, and they work as sub-contractors through your company. Your clients are not aware of this move and for now, you and Nathan Elder, your company president, want to keep it this way. One of the tasks you have assigned to MaintainU is keeping website security certificates, or Secure Socket Layer (SSL) certificates, up to date. Unlike some services that renew automatically until specifically canceled, SSL Certificates have a set expiry date. These certificates authenticate a website’s identity and enable an encrypted connection. Companies and organizations need to add SSL certificates to their websites to secure online transactions and keep customer information private and secure. Yesterday, you received an angry call from a client, Sheila Links at Gateway Industries, because users of the company website were getting error messages stating that the SSL certificate was expired and the content could not be trusted. You immediately got in touch with Jason Hughes, the president of MaintainU, to inform him of the problem. Jason and his team were able to update the certificate, but there remains work to be done. Gateway Industries was one of the first clients your firm ever signed. While you were able to get the mistake corrected, this penetration in security is a major transgression and has compromised the client’s faith in the company. Further, for the first 6 months or so, the relationship with MaintainU was great, but this error is a serious breach in security. At this point, you’re uncertain if you want to continue the relationship, but at the same time, you cannot afford to bring maintenance work back in-house. You have to reestablish productive working relationships on several fronts.

• The Fourth Amendment prevents unreasonable searches and seizures.
• The Fifth Amendment affords people various rights in criminal and civil proceedings. Examples include the right to a grand jury and due process. It also allows people to protect themselves from self-incrimination, and it prohibits double jeopardy
• The Sixth Amendment guarantees various rights to criminal defendants, such as the right to a speedy trial, a lawyer, and an impartial jury. It also guarantees defendants the right to know who their accusers are and the nature of the charges and evidence against them.
• The Eighth Amendment prohibits the federal government from imposing excessive bail, excessive fines, or cruel and unusual punishments.
