Did Executive Order 9066 infringe on the rights of Japanese living in the US as guaranteed by the Constitution?
The order violated virtually all of the rights that as citizens of the United States are supposed to be guaranteed by the United States Constitution. Japanese-Americans were denied due process and the guarantee of â??life, liberty or propertyâ?? contained in the Fifth Amendment of the Constitution of the United States. Executive Order 9066 called for taking Japanese-Americans from their homes and rehousing them to live in internment camps under curfew, with public property restrictions solely based on their ethnic background. The Supreme Court decided that the Constitution can be set aside on some occasions when practicality is needed, such as in times of war, and upheld the order. With that said, the US Supreme Court ruled in favor of Franklin D. Roosevelt's executive order. It remains unclear how the Court might decide such an issue in the 21st century.

Base of the federal court system is district courts?
The Federal Court System is set up mainly on a three tier system. 1. The basic level is the Circuit Court. Trials are held before the judge of the Circuit Court. That is where a Federal offender is found Guilty or Not Guilty. It is also where law suits are settled when it involves people in different states and they do not want to settle their differences in a state court. 2. Above that level are the District Courts of Appeal. One of these is the 11th District in Atlanta. Another is the 9th District in California. The District Courts hear appeals of the decisions from the circuit courts. in an appeal, an appeal lawyer reads through a trial manuscript, or record of what went on in a trial. He points out items that are contrary to the law or mistakes that the trial judge made. The appeal court judges review his work and decide if he is correct. Frequently he has some good points. Sometimes an appeal lawyer can get a few charges thrown out on a criminal complaint and his client will serve less time, or in a civil suit, he can have an award reduced. 3. Above the District Courts is The Supreme Court of the United States. The Supreme Court votes on what appeals it will hear from the District Courts. It only takes the most difficult cases. It can take any kind of case. It can even be a trial court. It last granted a Writ of Habeas Corpus in 1924. No one, even the Chief Justice, knows if it will ever do it again or why, but it could. Specialized courts also exist outside the main system but that is it.

Can your girlfriend stop you from seeing your child?
Yes, until you have established your paternity legally. Generally, if the parents are unmarried the mother has sole custody and control in most states until the father can establish his paternity. Remember, a child's mother can always be identified by medical records. Since the father didn't give birth and he was not legally married at the time of the birth he can establish his paternity through a DNA test. A paternity test can be arranged through the court. Once paternity is established in court, the father can request visitations or custody through the court. If the mother retains physical custody she can request that the court issue a child support order. If the father gets physical custody he can request a child support order.

What does it mean redress-ability by the court as valid cause of action?
In order for the Court to be able to hear the case and render a decision on the issue, the issue needs to be able to be solved, or 'redressed', by the court. If a Court, on deciding the issue, could take no steps to fix the problem in some way (by awarding damages to an injured party, issuing an injunction, etc) then the issue is not 're-dressable' and is there for 'non-justicable' or unable to be heard by the Court in question. If an issue IS 're-dressable' by the Court, then it is a valid cause of action, and the case can proceed on the merits.
