The Bilbo Baggins Case

Identify the relevant parties or players in the fact scenario:
Bilbo Baggins is the plaintiff in this situation if he does sue for wrongful dismissal. The accusations around him provide facts to his situation.

Orc Industries Corp would be classified as the defendants, as they’re the ones sued or charged with a crime. In this case, it’s in regards to wrongful dismissal charges. Which may only be relevant if Bilbo Baggins chooses to sue them for it.

The two main players are mostly representative of if Bilbo Baggins chooses to sue for wrongful dismissal, if he were to simply leave the company without such notice, Bilbo would be someone let go from his company do to accusations, and the company would be the fiery.
