If Mary damages a client’s hair she would be held liable. According to our textbook, Mary would cause injury to the plaintiff. Mary was to provide a duty of care to the customer. She breached this duty of care “failure to exercise care or to act as reasonable person would act (Cheeseman, 2010, p. 81).” The reason I state, that is because the customer trusted Mary with their hair and she damaged the client’s hair. As long as Celia and Mary register their boutique name with the United States PTO in Washington, DC, and the PTO approved it, there should not be any legal problems. If Celia and Mary decide to offer…

When multiple children in the city of Woburn contracted leukemia amongst other diseases, the parents believed that it was because of contamination from the local wells. The parents wanted an apology from the people that ruined their lives, so they filed a lawsuit. Jan Schlichtmann, a personal injury lawyer, was asked to be the lead attorney on the case. He first went in looking for a settlement. He commented on how the point of civil court is to settle. “They settle. Out of the 780,000, only 12,000 or 1 1/2 percent ever reach a verdict. The whole idea of lawsuits is to settle, to compel the other side to settle.”[1] When corporations have a lawsuit filed against them, they don’t make that big of a deal out of it because there’s not a full case…

Facts: The evening of May 4, 1982, Charma and Hugh Riddle were in their living room watching television. Mrs. Riddle proceeded to leave the room to go to the bathroom, but was surprised to find “respondent Cartwright” in the hallway with a shotgun in his hands (1).

What are some of the issues that are facing police departments, and all law enforcement agencies out there? Well there are a lot of issues, and problems that are facing police departments in today’s society, for starts gun problems are a big one. That all talks about how some chiefs want gun laws to be tightened, and some chiefs think that they should let people be free with guns, so that they can protect themselves. The Problem with all the guns is that people now days are buying more and more guns which is also causing the crime rate to go up and causing a lot of problems on all the police departments that are trying to keep the crime rates down. Yes people should be allowed to have guns so that they can protect themselves, but the laws with the guns are not that strict and just cause everyone to roam free with guns all over the cities, and like I said is causing the crime rate to increase, and more and more people are being killed because of lack of laws on the gun permits, and everything. I think that if we tighten down the laws on guns the crime rates will slowly decrease but that is better then them not decreasing at all.…
