One of the advantages of section 1983 of Title 42 of the U.S Code is that it eliminates favoritism and discrimination regardless of the position held. If the government or government ...

With respect to law of torts, any action carried out intentionally and that results in causing either physical or emotional injury to another person qualifies as an intentional tort. On the other hand, negligence tort entails causing harm or injury to a third party as a result of personal carelessness. According to Arthur and Barner (2007), civil law requires that every individual conduct his or her activities in a manner that induces no harm to surrounding persons. In this context, the need to conduct one’s affairs in a safe manner constitutes the element of duty. Failure to act safely and within expected ...

The companies should advertise a product ethically and legally, so that accurate and true information is delivered to the customers. it is because advertisement is a vital part of the business (Neelamalar, 2009). There are advertisements that are unethical yet legal. The advertisements that I find unethical but legal are the advertisement of “Vodafone Essar”, which claims that “Wherever you go our network follows”. In this case the product is exaggerated by making false claims in the marketing and advertisement of product on television channels. The channels on which the Vodafone’s advertisement is on aired include Star Plus, ...

Does the Required Documentation Determine the Care a Hospice Nurse Will Provide

Notably, it is necessary for a hospice nurse to have the required documentation before attempting to provide any assistance. This is because hospice nurses practice nursing under the law. As a result, Kennedy (2008) states that all their actions and performance is guided by the policies and guidelines put in place by the law. Notably, any malfunction or accidents that happen during care are answerable in front of a jury. This means that damages incurred are liable to the practicing hospice nurse. Rice (2006) statuses that their employer insures the hospice nurse with the necessary documentation to a set amount meaning that a hospice ...

Strict liability and the insanity defense share some very interesting and ironic components. Strict liability penalizes for “lack of thought or reason” while the insanity defense excuses this “lack of thought or reason.” The law operates quite strangely at times. In regards to the insanity defense, I firmly believe that it should be eliminated because it often excuses the criminal act and can be used as a loophole.

In a criminal case, the act and consequence should be the primary concerns, especially when considering violent crimes or crimes that harm individuals in other ways. However, when the insanity defense ...

Will Restricting Emissions Damage the Economy?

Will Restricting Emissions Damage the Economy?
Restricting emissions will not damage the economy. I most agree with Aaron Ezroj that emissions will have no damaging effects to the economy. Paul Cicio and Aaron Ezroj have differing opinions concerning the effects of emissions on the economy. Whereas Cicio suggests that emissions will have damaging effects on the economy, Ezroj disagrees by suggesting that the emissions will not damage the economy. Cicio argues that the capping of the greenhouse gas emissions from the industrial sector will have negative effects on jobs and investments, and increase the imports. He argues that ...

Community policing connotes to the building of efficient ties between the community and the police. By enhancement of community policing, myriad benefits would be achieved. In the early 1960s and 1970s community policing was a major setback. The mentioned setback got prompted by several factors, thereby, necessitating the development of community policing. Initially, there existed hostility. The mentioned hostility aimed at the police by the community. The communities increasingly treated the police with contempt (Brogden & Nijhar, 2103).

Furthermore, the consumers are purchasing goods that have been sourced over the long distances, such goods, however, contain larger carbon footprints that are also contributing to the damage of the environment.
Moreover, the distribution networks are not configured ...

In the case of Nova Mink v Trans Canada Airlines , the High Court ruled that airplanes that are governed by the Air Traffic Rules which are ruled by competent authority shall be subject to common law duties of care, unless otherwise excluded by legislation that expressly provides for an exclusion. This is regardless of the fact that they cover a wider range of mobility, both in vertical and horizontal settings. In the case of aeroplanes, they cannot be analogous to railways since the latter is excused when operating in accordance with statutory rules including accidents which occurred in level crossings ...

Current Liabilities are obligations expected to be paid within 12 months or within the company’s normal operating cycle whichever is longer. Those liabilities not within the definition of current liabilities are classified as long-term liabilities. It is important to distinguish between the two so that creditors and investors can effectively assess the risks associated with these liabilities. For instance, these users might take a look at the possibility of cash expenditures in the future, default on payments when resources available are insufficient to pay these obligations, or their impact on operational efficiency. Some common examples of current liabilities include ...

Under the concept of limited liability, the owners have no personal liability over the debts and obligations of a limited liability company. As such, shareholders are only liable up to the extent of their shares’ face value and any unpaid amount or guarantee with respect to those stocks.
With regard to business decisions, a limited liability company has more flexibility when it comes to taxation because they can choose to be taxed as a corporation, proprietorship, or partnership and avoid double taxation as the case for corporations.

They also involve less recordkeeping than corporations since a limited liability company does not necessarily ...

Scenario one

Oral contracts are equally binding and enforceable as written contracts (Thorpe and Bailey, 1999). However, the biggest disadvantage with oral contracts is the difficulty in ascertaining the precise terms should the parties differ. Where the parties are unable to prove their respective positions, the court will have recourse to the intention of the parties. In this scenario, the contract between Vivian and Hicks is oral, and to such extent Vivian can sue for breach of contract. It is however not clear what the terms where. Vivian claims that Hicks agreed to pay for all damages, whereas Hicks says he ...

The collision between Davis and Esposito which resulted to an injury is referred to as the tort of negligence. The collision led to physical harm to Esposito and left her with a permanent physical impairment.

Under the tenets of the tort of negligence, Davis is accountable for negligence and needs to provide remedies for the injuries sustained by Esposito.

A close examination of the circumstances of this case reveals that there were three basic elements which indicate that ...

I would choose option 3: To shut down the Boiler and immediately investigate the boiler. This is because, first, losses in productivity cannot balance out the loss of human life or critical injury. Parts of the fan may become violently dislodged and seriously injure any bystanders. In addition, overheated bearings may result in ignition of any leaking oils or fuels (Rayaprolu 401). This may result in an explosion of the boiler or fire, which may not only lead to loss of expensive plant and machinery but also human lives. According to the OSHB (42), a fire outbreak occurred in 1984 ...

- The human nervous system may be categorized into two divisions namely PNS and CNS. The nervous system has three broad functions which include sensing changes in the body as well as within outside environment; interpreting changes as well as establishing suitable response depending on reflexes, current conditions and experiences; and responding to interpretation through initiating action by glandular secretions (Paxinos, 2010). The PNS link the spinal cord and brain with receptors, glands, and muscles.

1. Explain the types of mistakes and the types of misrepresentation which can give rise to a court being required to interpret a contract. What remedies are appropriate to each type?

In the law of contracts, mistake refers to the belief in a set of facts or fact that is erroneous and, therefore, not available. Mistake often arises in relation to the conditions and terms of the contract. One or both of the parties to the contract may rely on a fact or set of facts as forming the conditions or terms of the contract. In circumstances where it is later obtained that the set of facts was erroneous, they are held as mistakes in contract. There are two broad categories of mistakes depending on the parties involved. In cases in which ...

Question One: Types of Mistakes and the Types of Misrepresentation

A mistake in contract law forms the basis of invalidating and rescinding a contract. It can be defined as a faulty action, belief or term in agreement when the contracting parties are drafting or engaging in the contract. There are two different types of mistake that have been identified in common law, which form the basis of argument requiring interpretation of the contract from the court. These mistakes include the unilateral mistake and the mutual mistake, which is also referred to as common mistake. Establishing that there was a mistake in the contract makes the court render the contact as void ab ...

Discussion question 1

The Uniform Commercial Code (UCC) is a uniform act meant to synchronize commercial laws across the United States. The importance of this harmonization is the interstate nature of many business transactions. Without such harmonization, not only would business be hampered but also resolution of disputes arising from commercial transactions with interstate effect would be very difficult. This code is a model law and states are allowed the latitude to alter it to fit their local circumstances. It is imperative to note that the code only applies to movable property only.

The Code defines goods as all movable property when a security interest ...

Introduction

Wind engineering is a significant component in civil engineering. This is because winds can have devastating effects on different manmade and natural structures. Windstorms produce large amounts of damage every year (Holmes, 2007). Weather conditions such as thunderstorms generate local winds, whereas hurricanes and typhoons may generate very strong winds. Designing of buildings and structure takes into account the dead load of the structure plus the imposed load. However, in including a factor of safety for the structures the engineers have to factor in the wind load.

The reasoning behind the view of accounting for tort liability as the economic efficiency view is that through the use of the tort system in supplementing the market forces efficiency is either improved or reduced. This isdependent on the incentives that are created for the injurers as well as the victims. Any alteration on the tort system leads to tradeoffs that seem to improve efficiency. From the economic efficiency view the tort system can only be measured by how it is able to minimize the different types of costs (Fletcher, 1992).

The corrective justice view uses the reasoning that ...

Inchoate offences relate to the steps in the direction of the commission of another crime. These steps also referred to as attempts are made in preparation for doing a crime and for that are considered crimes (Schmalleger et. al, 2010). Though generally for criminal liability to accrue the intent and the act must take place, these attempts constitute criminal conduct thus the liability attaches. The justification is that harm would have occurred had the crime materialized thus punishment serves to prevent the occurrence of the harm.

On the other hand, parties to a crime relate to the principle that a person can ...

Tort laws refers to laws that offer solutions to persons injured or harmed by unreasonable actions by those around them, There are two types of torts, intentional torts and negligence torts (Feinman,2010).

Lack of knowledge and negligence on the part of surgeons are the predominant factors for patients’ post-surgical trauma. However, a lawsuit against medical malpractice is one of the most difficult to win, let alone file, because of a multitude of agreements between the medical boards and practitioners.

The identification and description of liability theories for medical malpractice that apply may not necessarily be set in stone. To provide a strong and alleged case, the patient requires the following:

Violation of the standard of care

Compensable injury suffered by patient, and Identification of a proximate cause. When ...

A contract is a legal agreement entered by two or more parties all having legal responsibility to undertake. Once two or more agree to perform an agenda, they either put themselves into an oral or written obligation.

Oral contracts are used for social agreements such as preposition bets where the obligation is not serious. Written contracts on the other hand serve as a crucial document when it comes to businesses, governments and unions in which have significance impact on the parties involved. This is because oral ...
