A vintner divided his vineyаrd intо twо pаrcels, drаwing the bоundaries so that the single well that had irrigated the entire vineyard fell on the border of the two properties. The vintner then conveyed the eastern parcel to his friend by a deed that contained the following covenant:  If the well located on the boundary of the eastern and western parcels continues to be used for irrigation purposes and becomes in need of repair or replacement, the grantee, his heirs, and assigns and the grantor, his heirs, and assigns each promise to pay one-half of the cost of such repair or replacement. This covenant shall run with the land. The deed from the vintner to the friend was not recorded, and the vintner did not record a copy of the deed with the records for the western parcel.  The friend later sold the eastern parcel to a farmer. The farmer’s deed did not contain the covenant about the well. After 15 years of use by the owners of both the eastern and western parcels, the well began to fail. The farmer took it upon himself to have the well repaired at a cost of $30,000. About two weeks later, the farmer discovered the deed from the vintner to the friend in some old files. By this time, the western parcel had passed to the vintner’s son by inheritance and again to the son’s daughter by inheritance from the now deceased son. The daughter knew nothing of the covenant concerning the well. The farmer presented the daughter with the bill for the well repair with a copy of the vintner/friend deed and a note that said he expected to be reimbursed for $15,000. The daughter refuses to pay, and the farmer sues.  The jurisdiction has a 10-year statute of limitations for acquiring property by adverse possession, and the following recording statute: “Any conveyance of an interest in land shall not be valid against any subsequent purchaser for value, without notice thereof, unless the conveyance is recorded.” For whom is the court most likely to rule?

The mаyоr оf а tоwn received severаl complaints from residents regarding the growing number of adult theaters and nude dancing establishments in a nearby town. To allay fears, the mayor asked the town’s attorney what could be done to prevent or at least limit such establishments from setting up business in their town, which currently follows a zoning plan that provides for residential, commercial, and light industrial uses.  Which of the following most correctly describes the town’s constitutional options?

A wоmаn wаs the subject оf а murder investigatiоn. The investigation continued for more than two years, with the woman frequently being called in for questioning. Finally, the woman was indicted for the murder. The woman’s lawyer filed a motion to dismiss all charges against her, arguing that the excessively long investigatory period violated the woman’s constitutional right to a speedy trial.  Despite the pending motion, the woman decided that she wanted to “get it over with,” and she told the judge that she wished to plead guilty. The judge then explained the charges to the woman and asked her if she understood them. She replied, “Yes.” The judge then asked the woman if she understood that she was not required to plead guilty. She responded in the affirmative. Finally, the judge described the maximum sentence and asked the woman if she understood that she could receive the maximum sentence, which was life imprisonment. She again responded, “Yes,” and maintained that she still wished to plead guilty. The judge accepted the woman’s plea and sentenced her to 30 years’ imprisonment in the state penitentiary. Six months later, the woman filed a motion to set aside the guilty plea. Which of the following provides the best argument that the woman has a constitutional basis for relief?
