Project 1

Following a year long humanitarian trip to Another Country, Rock Star Big Bad Bruce , planned to return to his home in the USA to announce his run for political office, as well as to promote his new business, called personal view.  Personal view is a pair of glasses that can see and hear everything within a selected view, set by the viewer.  It can use any security camera within a quarter mile, and patch it to the wearer.  The glasses may also view and capture any and all  video feeds within one mile without the need for passwords or logins.  The glasses amplify the wearers and any  others  thought processes within one quarter mile. Fans wanted to welcome Big Bad Bruce home by gathering at Baltimore Airport when he arrived and to express their support for his candidacy.  Baltimore Airport is a large international airport, which serves several major airlines  and has five concourses with numerous gates, parking lots and grassy knolls. The planned welcome home gathering would involve about 200 enthusiastic fans and a 15 minute speech by Big Bad Bruce to the group about his political views and his new product.  Prior to entering the USA,  Bruce is worried that his brief case  with the prototype of the glasses and designs. will be taken at the airport, allowing the public access to the product’s secrets to the public as well as to  the competition.  Baltimore Airport is owned and operated by the State of Maryland’s Department of Transportation. One of the airport’s regulations, Section  B, forbids “any gathering of more than 30 people anywhere in the airport unless travel related.” The stated purpose of Section  B “is to avoid congestion and to promote the smooth operation of the airport.” The statute further states that the patrons and passengers are subject  to the search of their persons and any and all personal items that they may have in their possessions in side of the terminals or within 500 yards of any building. Passengers by accepting the privilege, license of passage, hereby consents to and waive any claim as to violation of constitutional rights which they hereby waive.  The passenger and any patrons hereby also waive the right of any jurisdiction of the courts.  Any claims that the passenger or patrons, may have, will be decided by arbitration.   Violators of Section B are subject to a fine up to $1,000 and/or incarceration of up to 6 months.  Big Bad Bruce and his  fans have requested permission to hold their welcome-home gathering in the airport, but the airport has denied this request based solely upon Section B. Big Bad Bruce’s fans hire you to file a lawsuit challenging Section. B in order to obtain access to the airport for the welcome-home gathering.  Bruce also feels that this will interfere with his right to show his new product.
