Sorry to use your pics of what not to do reefwaars, but this is not the best example of framing. The corners are not done properly. There should never be a vertical "seam" that runs uninterrupted. All the nails/screws/bracing in the world won't fix that. A double top plate could fix it though as well as nailing the bottom plate to the floor joists if that hasn't already been done.

FWIW, I'm a carpenter.
