Constitutional law attorneys handle cases involving the construction and interpretation of federal and state constitutions, including individual rights and governmental powers. Constitutional law cases can involve issues like First Amendment rights -- such as freedom of speech, press, and religion -- and the checks and balances on authority among different branches of government. Most of the federal constitutional rights are found in the Bill of Rights, that was created originally as a limitation on the action by the federal government, but many of those rights are also applicable to the states through the Fourteenth Amendment.
Tipton is a town in Tillman County, Oklahoma, United States. The population was 916 at the 2000 census. Tipton also is home to the Tipton's children's Home which was founded in 1928, when Sol Tipton donated a plot of land to the founders. The original Home was in Canadian Texas. Tipton lies on the northern portion of the Tillman Terrace Aquifer, an alluvial aquifer in western Tillman County, associated with the southern extent of the North Fork of the Red River. The farmland surrounding Tipton is noted for high quality soils. "Tipton loam" is considered to be among the most ideal soils in the United States.
