Case Info

  • Argued on September 2-3, 1976
  • Advocate for the petitioners, Bruce S. Rogow, said it broke the eighth and fourteenth amendments.
  • Eight says that citizens should never receive cruel or unusual punishment
  • The fourteenth gives him the right to a hearing.

Background

  • Charles R. Drew Jr. High School in 1976
  • James Ingraham is asked to leave Auditorium and refuses
  • He is spanked with a paddle and got a hematoma. He couldn't sit down for three weeks
  • Many other cases were presented where the child had to miss school due to the injuries in other states

Ingraham v. Wright (decided 1977) in Dade County Florida

By Conrad Smith

Corporal Punishment Now

  • Since this case most states banned this form of punishment in schools.
  • 19 states still allow corporal punishment.
  • Students that get paddled in 2009/10: 8.4 % of students in Mississippi, 5.2% in Arkansas, and 4% in Alabama
  • Montana is not one of the states that allows corporal punishment, but both Idaho and Wyoming do.

decision

  • The decision was made on April 19, 1977
  • 4 were for the case and 5 were against
  • They argued that the amendments wer aimed towards criminals.
  • They argued that it was not worth it because its is part of our culture and the extreme cases are rare
  • The fifth circuit, the en banc court were against the case
  • And a small chance of the amendments being broken does not give them a right to a hearing.

My Opinion

  • I would have agreed with the minority and tried to ban school corporal punishment.
  • I wouldn't be for completly banning it in the community. I think parents should be alowed to do it to their children
  • Corporal punishment should only be used if nothing else is working
  • It is dangerous to give teachers and principals the right to hit children.
