...ISSUE: Sheila Thompson consulted an attorney friend, Jonas Sheldon, to give legal advice in California regarding a noncompetition clause. Sheldon, a wills and trusts lawyer in Ohio, reluctantly gave incorrect legal advice to Ms. Thompson. Does this correspondence create an attorney-client relationship and violate the Model Rules of Professional Conduct resulting in legal malpractice? BRIEF ANSWER: Probably yes. The correspondence between Thompson and Sheldon does violate the Model Rules of Professional Conduct. Both parties had established an attorney-client relationship. Sheldon breached his duty of care to Thompson and the proximate cause of damages resulted from Thompson’s reliance on the advice. Thus, Sheldon breached his duty as a legal professional and will likely be held to have committed legal malpractice. FACTS: Jonas Sheldon, a licensed bar member of Ohio, was vacationing in San Diego when he ran into a friend, Sheila Thompson. Thompson, a graphic designer, approached Sheldon seeking legal advice regarding a noncompetition clause that her previous employer imposed upon her. Thompson’s previous employer was attempting to enforce the clause as she started her own company. Upon Sheldon and Thompson’s rendezvous, Thompson pled with Sheldon for legal advice regarding the enforceability of the clause. Although first informing Thompson of his inability to practice law in California, since he was not licensed there, Sheldon agreed to “look into it” for Thompson...

...report is completed when the accident in question represents only a minor incident. It often answers the questions of ‘who’, ‘what’, ‘where’, and ‘when’ the incident occurred. The other form of Accident Investigation is and Accident-Analysis report. This is completed when the accident in question is serious and also addresses the concerns of the previously four ‘W’s’ with the addition of asking ‘why’ the incident took place. During his opening speech at the National Symposium, which was hosted by the Occupational Safety and Health Authority and Agency, Minister of Labour and Small Micro Enterprise Development Errol McLeod stated that inadequate risk assessments and failure to implement safe systems of work were contributors in more than seventy percent of the accidents that involved persons employed in the Manufacturing Sector. Upon inspections carried out by the OSH Agency, the Minister also revealed that there were under-reporting of accidents, deficiencies in contractor management and non-conformance to the requirements of the OSH Act in respect of the establishing and functioning of Safety and Health Committees. According to the OSH Act 2004, Amended and Updated, it mentions in Section 6, subsection 1; “It shall be the duty of every employer to ensure, so far as is reasonably practicable, the safety, health and welfare at work of all his employees. The Act goes on to list the duties of all employers, describing ways to provide a safe working environment. This means that employers...

...Do you believe spending in your department is excessive relative to other departments, or not enough? Explain your answer I believe that spending in the Department of Homeland Security is excessive relative to the other departments. Due to the fact that there are hundreds of agencies, the DHS seems excessive only due to the fact that there are so many smaller agencies that are not near as important as the DHS. If you compare the spending to things such as FDA, EEOC, and the SEC, the budget seems not as near as excessive. 12. Do you see a need for spending in your department to increase or decrease over the next 20 years? Explain. I do see a need for spending in the DHS to increase in the next 20 years. Not only has it been steadily increasing since the early 2000’s, but a bone of contention in this year's presidential election is the U.S. Border Control. As...

...Ancient Emperors: Ashoka Brittany Raymond Professor Michael Briere Strayer University HUM 111 Monday, December 15, 2014 Ancient Emperors: Ashoka http://static.newworldencyclopedia.org/7/7d/Ashoka2.jpg0 Ancient Emperors: Ashoka As I, Emperor Ashoka Maurya, lay here holding on to the last bit of my life I want to leave a part of me to share with the world of my life. I was born in 304 BC to my father the Mauryan Empire, Bindusara. When I was born my grandfather, Chandragupta, was ruler of the empire. My father later inherited leadership from him and ruled for the next 25 years. I was 18 years old in the year 286 B.C. when my father appointed me as his Viceroy of the province of Avanti. My father had chosen me because it was said I had shown my abilities and individuality well. I soon after married Vidisa Mahadevi Sakya Kumari in Ujjayini. Mahadevi was from the famous Sakya clan to which Buddha belonged. At age 20 I celebrated the birth of a son whom I gave the name Mahendra. Next my daughter, Sanghamitra, was born just two years later. This was the small start to what one day would be my large family. Early into my military career I became a strong leader. I was respected and spoke highly about. This did not sit easy with my eldest half-brother, Prince Susima. He then began to plan his demise to keep me from being the choice to take over my father’s place as ruler. I was sent by my father into Takshashila province when...

...IS3230 Study Guide for Final Exam Monday PM Mrs. Chasity Eldridge 1) There are four categories of technology which are considered subjects for the purposes of access ctrl. The first is: *Networks- A network is a subject when a resource on one network requests access to a resource on another network. A firewall rule that authorizes access to the Internet might use the internal network as a subject, with the Internet as the object. *Systems- A system is a subject when one system requests access to resources on another system or on a network. This usually happens when a PC attempts to access a printer across the network. * Processes- A process is most commonly a subject when an application process requests low-level access to the file system. * Applications- An application is a subject when it needs to access external resources such as a printer or the network. *A technology subject doesn’t have a username & password the way a human subject might, but it does have the same authorized, unauthorized, or unknown status. P.6 2) A well-defined access ctrl system consists of 3 elements: *Policies- Rules developed by someone with a strong knowledge of the organization, its assets, goals & challenges. *Procedures- Nontechnical methods used to enforce policies. *Tools- Technical methods used to enforce policies. *Organizations typically use procedures & tools together to enforce policies.

...THE UNIVERSITY OF ZAMBIA SCHOOL OF EDUCATION DEPARTMENT OF LANGUAGE AND SOCIAL SCIENCES DEPARTMENT NAME : LIMPO NAMAKAU COMPUTER NO : 11053909 COURSE : CVE 3020 LECTURER : MR. CHIDONGO PHIRI TASK : ASSIGNMENT (1) ONE LENGTH : BETWEEN 12 and 30 TYPED PAGES DUE DATE : 30th JANUARY, 2014. QUESTION : Critically discuss how the study of Public Legal Education would help school managers analyse the following; i). Public Nuisance ii). Negligence of girl child iii). Abortion Practices iv). Examination Malpractice Without rules and regulations, society would be impossible to have because freedom without boundaries results in anarchy which means total confusion. From birth, human beings’ lives, safety, health and peace are controlled by law. It is for this reason that this piece of work seeks to critically discuss how the study of public legal education would help school managers analyze public nuisance, negligence of the girl child, abortion practices and examination malpractices. According to Johari (1989), law is a set of rules which society develops for itself to control the behaviours of its members towards one another. Migel et al (2005) defines public as something that is not owned privately but in common, while legal is a word used to refer to issues, things, activities or information to do with how or what the law requires (Cooper, 1978). For a rule to be recognized as a law there should be a way of compelling people to obey it and this is done...
