Question 994 Create a Newsletter
Class Newsletter Announcing You Won the Grant (This assignment fulfills these NETS-T, InTASC, and CCTC Standards) In this assignment, you will use a Microsoft Word newsletter template to create a class newsletter to your students’ parents. If you are not yet teaching, assume that you are teaching your preferred grade level. In this scenario, you (the teacher) have won the $10,000 software grant (Week 3 Assignment 1). You will explain to the parents what software will be purchased and how it will be used in the class.
Include the following topics:
1. Introduction (announcement that your class won the software grant)
2. List the software that will be in your classroom (put in the same categories as the grant).
3. Explain how the software will be used in your classroom.
4. Explain how the software will enhance learning.
5. Explain ISTE NETS-S for Students and explain which standards the students will be able to work toward or achieve by using this new software in class.
Note: Any graphics used in the newsletter must be cited with an APA Figure caption underneath the image and listed in a Reference list.
Newsletters are meant to be formatted using columns and featured articles. To ensure you are formatting the newsletter correctly, you may want to use a template below. To access Microsoft Word’s template files, see the following tutorials.
Remember that you must use a NEWSLETTER template of your choice. Where do I find Templates (2013, 2016)? Some Graphic Design Principles Do not put title, subtitles or text in ALL CAPITAL letters. All caps are harder for the eye to read. Do not put any text, titles or subtitles in italics font. Italics are harder for the eye to read.
Save italics for items that require them, such as book titles. Do not Center sentences, paragraphs or bulleted items. Centered text is harder for the eye to read. Centering titles and subtitles is fine. If you place text in a coloured background, make sure that it is visible. For example, black font in a dark blue background cannot be seen well.
Make the font a lighter colour in those areas. Use short paragraphs and bulleted lists. People will not wade through large chunks of text. Do not underline titles or subtitles. Put them in bold-face for APA style.
DO NOT use the following text-background colour combinations because they create optical problems for the eyes, so they are very hard to read. red text over blue background red text over green background green text over blue background green text over red background blue text over red background blue text over green background

Question 997 Case Law Analysis Memo
You are a paralegal employed by Chong and Associates. This is a large law firm located in Annapolis, Maryland. The firm specializes in representing people in employment cases.
An attorney and paralegal are assigned to each case. The paralegal conducts the initial intake and obtains the names and phone numbers of potential witnesses. The attorney interviews the client and explains the law to the client.
The attorney explores the defenses the employer may have. In order to fully understand the case, the attorney may request that the paralegal draft a Synthesis Memo that explains the law or an Office Memo that applies the law and the arguments that the opposing side may raise.
Also, in order to fully educate the client, the paralegal may draft a client information letter that explains the law. Paralegal Memo summarizing the interview with Helen Winter The paralegal interviewed Ms. Winter and wrote the following memo:
To: Helen Winter file From: Pat Jefferson, Paralegal Helen Winter came into the office to discuss her employment case. Ms. Winter has been employed by the federal government as an auditor for the last 8 years. Approximately, 2 years ago, she got a new supervisor, Harvey Rivers. At the beginning, Mr. Rivers was professional. However, after several months, he started making comments that made her uncomfortable. He would make comments about her hair, clothes, and generally her appearance. Since this made her feel uncomfortable, she eventually told him to stop making comments about her appearance. For a bit, the comments stopped.
Recently, the comments started up again and Mr. Rivers asked her out to lunch as well as dinner. She declined both invitations. Afterwards, Mr. Rivers stopped talking to her and stopped giving her assignments and tasks. She believes that he is not giving her these assignments and tasks since she declined his invitations. The lack of work is going to be detrimental to her career and promotion potential. As a result, she is worried about her job and has been having health issues. Witness 1 Statement My name is Ms. Georgette Jones.
I am in the cubicle next to Helen Winter. I have known Helen for the 4 years. She has never mentioned feeling uncomfortable with Mr. Rivers. He has always been professional and courteous to me. Witness 2 Statement My name is Tom Grant. I work with Helen and Georgette.
In fact, I am in the cubicle behind Helen. I have noticed that Helen avoids Mr. Rivers. I have noticed that he likes to comment on the women in the office and their clothes. It is the way he is. Issue: Whether Ms. Winter’s sexual harassment case based on the actions of her supervisor, Mr. Rivers, are sufficiently severe or pervasive to alter the conditions of the plaintiff’s employment.
Cases and Statutes: Harris v. Forklift Sys., Inc., 510 US 17 Meritor Sav. Bank v. Vinson, 477 US 57 42 USC 2000e-2 29 C.F.R. 1604.11 In this project, you will demonstrate your skill in analyzing a legal issue and explaining that analysis in a legal memorandum.
Your memo will use the listed cases, statutes, and facts. The memo must follow the IRAC format. For the given issue, you will explain the relevant law from the cases, apply that law to the facts, and set out a reasoned conclusion.
Evaluation Criteria Your work will be evaluated according to the grading rubric for this project. Your explanation of the case law and statutes must be accurate and thorough.
Your application of the law to the client’s situation must be thorough and from both perspectives. Your conclusion must be supported by the application. Citations must follow The Bluebook rules for citation and style. You memo must provide sufficient context and logical organization.
Your memo must exhibit correct sentence structure, grammar, punctuation, and spelling.
Question 998 Employment contract
I need a revision for my assignment done by the writer. Here are some comments: Use February instead of “second month of the year” What is this – (Neil and Chin); ??? You have a lot of legalese that can be omitted in your contract, per the guidelines in the book and our discussions in class.
Go through the contract and try to omit some of it – if the sentence/section makes sense without the archaic legalese, then omit it. If you need the word for the sentence/section to make sense, then leave it.
You have different fonts on the contract – like you copied and pasted it from different sources. This looks sloppy. Clean it up. What does this sentence mean – “The Employee has the discretion to bring the deed and her employment through a notice of NOT less than a week’s notice to the Employer in writing.” ??? What is this? (Gross and Compa ).
It’s severability, not separability You have a placeholder for addresses within the notice section but no actual addresses. Make sure this is cleaned up.
Question 999 Phipps Vs. Toronto Police Services Board
Visit the Ontario Human Rights Commission website at www.ohrc.on.ca. Under “Our Work”>Legal” choose the case related to police action (i.e. Phipps Vs. Toronto Police Services Board).

you are to locate at least three separate online articles on Post Traumatic Stress Disorder and police-related stress. You will: Discuss the relevance of PTSD and police-related stress to police officers Discuss at least two challenges related to police officers dealing with these stresses Explain symptoms, causes, and treatments
Question 1003 Discussion board
Topic 1: Your company has recently hired a new person. Shortly after this individual begins work, the company receives a “garnishment order.” This court order specifies that a certain percentage of the employee’s salary must be deducted each pay check in order to satisfy a money judgment that has been entered against the employee.
After complying with the court order order for several pay checks, the company receives another court order to stop paying the garnishment (it turns out the employee was not notified of the proceedings that lead to a money judgment against him).
A few months later, in the same case (it is a divorce case), the company receives ANOTHER court order directing the company to “garnish” a percentage of the employee’s wages. The boss shows up at your door. “This is too much,” he says. “I want to get rid of this guy because these garnishment orders are driving me crazy.” 1.
What would you advise the boss – about firing the employee for the garnishment orders, and about garnishment generally? A month later another garnishment order arrives – this time for a different case; a judgment was entered against the employee in a personal injury case (a car accident), the employee had proper notice of the court proceedings but chose not to defend, and judgment was entered against him.
2. Would your advice to your boss change? How? Topic 2 Imagine you have 2 friends who work for a “disaster recovery business.” A disaster recovery business responds to calls from [potential] clients who have had a “disaster” damage their home – for example, a pipe burst and caused a flood, or the cat knocked over a halogen lamp causing fire damage in the living room, or a hurricane has broken a window and damaged a room. Business has picked up and this small, 2-man company decides to hire a new employee.
This person will staff an office from 9-5 M-F and take calls 24/7 from people who have had a disaster. The person will keep track of invoices. billing, payments, etc. They would need to carry a mobile phone and answer calls that could arise 24 hours a day/7 days a week. Your friends know you’ve taken an employment law course and ask you for help.
Draft a memo setting forth the legal responsibilities (if any) towards this person (for instance, will the company have to pay the employee by the hour for each hour they carry the mobile phone?)” Be sure to interact with at least one classmate on each question
Question 1004 bibliography
Now that you have a topic for your final paper, it is time to do some research. You need to find academic sources that will help you answer your question. For this part, you will essentially turn in an annotated bibliography.
You must find 5 outside academic sources. Your sources must fit the following criteria:
1. They must be academic books, peer-reviewed journals, or law review articles. 2. They must be sources that were not used as class readings. a. But feel free to use these sources in your paper!
3. If sources are more than a decade or so old, make sure they are not out of date in terms of the data used or the findings presented. a. E.g., “According to Roe v. Wade, the current practice in evaluating the timeline of an abortion is the trimester framework.” (No!!!)
4. Case law is also permitted (think RCRJ 202: Supreme Court cases, etc.). This means they cannot be newspapers, magazines, websites, documents from advocacy organizations, and so on. If you are unsure if a source qualifies, ask me and I will let you know. – Again, this is for the purposes of this assignment. Quoting and referring to relevant newspaper articles, websites, advocacy organizations, etc. is entirely appropriate for use in your paper.
For this part of the assignment, you are required to locate and read your sources, and provide a summary of them (see the example on the back of this page). In order to receive full credit, you must
(1) find at least 5 sources,
(2) ensure that all sources meet the criteria above
(3) provide an adequate summary of each one using the format shown on the back of this page.
Submissions that lack these qualities are subject to losing points. This assignment is due Tuesday, March 28th. Please submit this assignment via BlackBoard. [This is just an example. You must do this for each of your five sources.]
APA Format Citation: Norris, R. J. (2012). Assessing compensation statutes for the wrongly convicted. Criminal Justice Policy Review, 23, 352-374. Main Purpose or Thesis of the Work: The purpose of this work is to show the tremendous variability of existing compensation statutes for those who have been wrongly convicted and exonerated.
Norris shows that the laws differ greatly from state to state, and argues that although having a compensation statute is better than not having one, there is much room for improvement among those that already exist.
How did the author(s) conduct the study? (What did he/she/they actually do?) The author collected all existing statutes and conducted a content analysis of each one.
He coded the statutes across ten different dimensions and analyzed the overall landscape of compensation statutes. He then compared the statutes to a model standard and devised a scoring system to rank each statute.
How does this source relate to or contribute to the question/issue you plan to address in your paper? In other words, how will you use this to help answer the question? [Obviously, I cannot do this here. But for each of your articles, I want you to think very clearly about how they actually contribute to making your final paper better. Try to articulate that here.]
Question 1005 Employment Law Discussion Board
Section 1 A male employee complains to his supervisor. The employee is gay. He says another employee – who is straight – says things whenever the gay employee passes the straight employee’s cubicle.
The gay employee says the straight employee makes sexually suggestive remarks to him, like “Nice buns” or “Nice basket.” of “I’d let you ‘do’ me, even if I am straight.” The straight employee shows pictures of handsome men from his sports magazine to the gay employee and says, “I bet you wouldn’t throw him out of bed for eating crackers!” or “I bet you’d like to see his baseballs!” The gay employee finds this behaviour offensive; he is in a long-term relationship and has no interest in the straight employee.
He finds it offensive to have pictures of these handsome athletes shoved in his face along with suggestive comments. The gay employee demands that something be done or he will seek legal advice.
The supervisor shows up at your door. “Can he really sue?” he says. “Federal law doesn’t protect against anti-gay discrimination, does it? Can’t I tell him he has to live with this?” You might “skim” this article for help; the ‘twist’ in this hypothetical is that the “straight” employee does not really have any sexual interest in the gay employee.
It doesn’t fit the usual situation (e.g., a male supervisor “hitting on” his female secretary, who fears for her job if she complains to anyone). Complex Law Review Article on Same-Sex Sexual Harassment
1. Provide your analysis of the situation in 200- 400 words. Section
2 BFOQ’s and “business necessity” sometimes serve as exceptions to the rule that you cannot discriminate in employment decisions.
Locate a decision from a court or other tribunal where a BFOQ or business necessity argument carried the day–or did not. Briefly summarize it and explain why you agree or disagree with the decision. ] Be sure to interact with at least one classmate on each question.

Conversely, if you decided the figures were other toys, you would highlight all the things that make the item not human – like Wolverines knife fingernails.
If you originally found that some figures were dolls and some were other toys, you only need to write about the majority. So, you would write the Issue Statement so that it only pertains to those two figures. You would also only describe those two figures. The entire assignment should be no longer than two pages in length. Remember to follow the General Writing Assignment directions, just like you have for all of the writing assignments this semester

Question 1011 Counter response to Attorney’s reply to my ARDC Complaint filed
I am currently in a custody case for my son. The attorney I hired mishandled my case egregiously, so I submitted a complaint to the ARDC (Attorney Registration and Disciplinary Commission) The ARDC can yank an attorney’s right to practice law.
This attorney responded to my original complaint, so I am now countering his reply. In this attorneys response, he claims this as a simple “fee dispute” so the goal of this document is to prove to the ARDC the gross negligence and ineptitude of this lawyer. The ‘ARDC Response to Linder Response’ is the document I am looking for help with.

Question 1014 Presume Matthew
Presume Matthew (see below) is a friend of yours from home. He is facing charges in the juvenile court, and he could end up in a training school for a year if adjudicated a delinquent.
He does not qualify for a public defender, and so his parents have retained a private attorney. He does not like the attorney and is considering dismissing the attorney and proceeding without counsel. He knows you have taken a few criminal justice courses, and he asks you for your opinion.
Relying strongly on the reading to support your decision, explain what advice you would give to Matthew. Matthew, 17, was charged with criminal impersonation, after “working” for a week as a physician’s assistant at a local emergency room. While there he performed CPR, removed an IV and examined both charts and disrobed patients.
When confronted by police he first claimed the hospital knew he was young and that he was there shadowing ER personnel in order to learn about the job. Two years prior he was thrown out a sheriff’s department program for youth interested in law enforcement after presenting himself as an actual deputy. Matthew is an extremely intelligent teen, with a full academic college scholarship for the following year.
His parents both work 80 hour work weeks and, while they provide for all his physical needs, they do not have much time to devote to their son. Their jobs have led to frequent promotions and cross-country moves. All neighbourhoods and school systems have been nice, and Matthew has always been able to make friends, but he is not especially close to friends, family or neighbours due to the lack of stability in his living/school situation.

Question 1016 court cases
You are a legal assistant for the attorney of the ABCD company. For this assignment you must conduct research and find three (3) court opinions (i.e. cases that have been previously decided by the court) that are precedent (i.e. have similar facts and issues of law) to the case below.
To receive credit for this assignment, you must provide the case title and citation of each of the three (3) cases you find. You may use Google Scholar in order to conduct your research. The Church of Narnia vs. ABCD Company: Six months ago the CEO for ABCD Company sent a letter to the Bishop for the Church of Narnia pledging a $5,000,000.00 donation to the Church.
Upon receipt of this news, the Bishop contacted ABCD’s CEO who re-assured the Bishop that the Church would be receiving a check for this amount within the ensuing four to six weeks. The Bishop, who for several years badly wanted to expand the Church in order to increase its congregation, immediately hired an architect and paid him $200,000.00 to design the new ambitious project. The Bishop was in love with the architect’s design, so he quickly hired a general contractor for $1,000,000.00 to start the building process.
In addition to the $1,000,000.00 for the labor, the Bishop paid another 3,000,000.00 for the tools and materials needed for the project. On week five after receiving the letter and first speaking to ABCD’s CEO on the phone, the bishop called ABCD because he was nervous about the fact that he had not received the check and he had already incurred such significant expenses.
Note that the only reason the Bishop engaged in this ambitious construction project was because of the extra money he was counting on getting from ABCD since the Church’s structure did not need it to continue its regular operations. The CEO at that point told the Bishop that soon after committing to donate the money, ABCD’s finances started going terribly wrong and as such at this point they were not able to make a donation to the church. The Bishop is now demanding that ABCD still true to its word and give the church the donation.

Question 1020 US Corrections .D.
CJ2400 US Corrections .D. 1.2-Much of the history of corrections in the United States can be traced back to the Auburn and Pennsylvania systems of punishment. What if the Auburn silent system was chosen over the Pennsylvania system of punishment?
How different would corrections be today? In addition to the problems the Auburn system presented in the past, what additional problems would the system present in modern society and how might the system be beneficial in today’s society? 1.3- Three strikes laws have become popular in recent years after the abduction and murder of Polly Klaas in 1993.
The goal of three strikes sentencing is to deter crime, and the majority of states have legislation on the books that address repeat, violent offenders. Do you believe that three strike laws actually deter crime? What is the cost, to the correctional system, of this legislation? Is it worth it? 2.1- Probationers enjoy many of the same rights as non-convicted citizens.
But a probationer’s right to know what information his or her sentence is based on is a hotly debated issue. The amount of rights that probationers enjoy is directly related to the Pre-Sentence Investigation that must be completed by the probation officer. Why do many probation officers object to making Pre-Sentence Investigation (PSI) reports public? Do you believe PSI should be made public? Why or why not? 2.2- Too often, the criminal justice system needs an alternative between incarceration and the outright release of an offender.
Intermediate sanctions help to fill that void. Intermediate sanctions are one form of punishment about which individuals with competing views can reach some agreement. What are the advantages of intermediate sanctions, for all parties involved? What are the disadvantages? Are intermediate sanctions the future of corrections? Why or why not? 3.1-The number of Americans behind bars is a controversial topic that must be addressed by the criminal justice system.
During the past decade the numbers of jail inmates has risen from 220 per 100,000 residents to 250 per 100,000 residents. With all of the reform efforts and a declining crime rate, why did jail populations increase during this period? How does prison overcrowding affect the jail population?
Do you see any opportunities to reverse this trend? 3.2- Jails have not escaped the influx of prisoners that have swelled correctional institutions well beyond their maximum capacities. As we discussed previously, the number of inmates in our local jails has increased by over 10% in the past decade.
This has resulted in jail populations that have nearly tripled since 1985. With this deluge of prisoners comes complications. Name three of the most serious issues facing the jails in the U.S. today. Discuss your solution to one of these three issues. 4.1- It is a drastic change in one’s lifestyle to go from a life of freedom to a life of incarceration. An individual’s daily routine is no longer their own. Inmates often go through a variety of attitude and behavior changes as they adjust to life as an inmate.
This drastic transition begins as soon as they arrive at the facility. What type of changes must they now undergo? What are some of the factors that make it difficult to initially adjust to prison? Do you think this treatment is inhumane? 4.2- Health care is an issue for correctional institutions.
When looking at the health care needs of prisoners, female inmates have higher rates of illness than do their male counterparts. However, the quality of health care they receive varies from quite good to very poor. List several areas where health care of inmates could be improved.
Do you feel the medical needs of women in prison are being adequately met? Explain. The ideas and beliefs 5.1- Prisoners’ rights are a broad and often controversial topic.
There is more than one viewpoint on the topic of prisoners’ rights, and generally no consensus can be reached. Each viewpoint influences how we decide upon and preserve or remove rights from those incarcerated. What are the three viewpoints described in the text?
With these established, define “prisoners’ rights.” Do you believe that prisoners have too many rights? Too few? Why? 5.2- It is common knowledge that the right to legal counsel begins when an individual is arrested, with the Miranda Rights etched into the memory of most criminal justice professionals. The necessity for legal services doesn’t end with an inmate’s conviction. There are multiple resources available for an inmate to pursue.
List three different legal services available to inmates. In your opinion, should inmates have this many options to continue their defense post-conviction? Why or why not? According to research, access to education is a key to future career success, and this is just as true for inmates.
The research shows that providing education to inmates is beneficial in many ways. It is discouraging then that college programs have been reduced, primarily because prison systems are coming to believe that prisoners do not need the frills of postsecondary schooling.
What educational possibilities are still available to inmates in prison and how valuable is educational programming for offenders? Is it important to protect these opportunities for inmates? Why or why not? 6.1- According to research, access to education is a key to future career success, and this is just as true for inmates.
The research shows that providing education to inmates is beneficial in many ways. It is discouraging then that college programs have been reduced, primarily because prison systems are coming to believe that prisoners do not need the frills of postsecondary schooling.
What educational possibilities are still available to inmates in prison and how valuable is educational programming for offenders? Is it important to protect these opportunities for inmates? Why or why not? 6.2- The punishment for being convicted of a crime doesn’t end with the completion of an inmate’s sentence.
There are rights and privileges that are not restored when inmates are released from prison, and that follows them for the remainder of their lives. What rights may offenders have to live without because of their criminal record?
In what way might the loss of these rights affect their ability to reintegrate into society? Do you agree with the loss of rights for ex-offenders, even after their release or completion of their sentence? 7.1- Reducing murder rates in the United States has been of major importance to the criminal justice system for many years.
The solution that many states, and the federal government, have arrived at is to utilize capital punishment as a sanction for murder. Retentionists and abolitionists disagree about the effectiveness of the death penalty to deter murder.
Empirical research had been done in an attempt to settle these arguments. What types of studies have been done? What were the findings? Does the death penalty deter murder?
7.2- State legislatures have passed laws permitting juveniles to be transferred or waived to adult court where they can be tried and punished as adults because of the concerns over violent juvenile offenders and the threats they pose to the community.
In most states the age at which a child can be transferred to an adult facility is 14. However, in Vermont children can be transferred to adult facilities as young as 10, and in Georgia, Illinois, and Mississippi at age
13. What are some of the issues of juvenile offenders that are placed in adult prisons? How does being in an adult facility affect the future likelihood of criminal behavior?
8.1-To the professional correctional officer, their job represents a career in which they can grow and contribute to society. To the nonprofessional, their job represents merely a job, a paycheck — they have no commitment to the organization and they see no reason to give more of self than is absolutely necessary.
The desired trend is toward increased professionalism. There are some stumbling blocks standing in the way of making this a reality. Name three of the present challenges hindering the advancement of professionalism. How can each of these be overcome?
8.2-What do you see as the future of corrections? Do you think punishment or reform will dominate the future landscape of corrections?

Question 1025 landlord
Landlord-Tenant Law Worth 220 points HINT: See Chapters 29 and 30 of the text to help understand some of the legal issues covered in this assignment. Larry Landlord has recently renovated an apartment and has put it on the market to be rented for $800.00 a month.
Larry Landlord has been in business for approximately five (5) years and has had both positive and negative experiences with tenants. Larry Landlord is hoping to find a good, long-term tenant for his apartment. Roger Renter saw Larry’s sign for the apartment for rent and thought the location and the apartment would be perfect.
Roger met Larry to look at the apartment and Roger fell in love with it. All of the interior fixtures had been replaced and the unit had a nice large closet. Roger noticed that although newly painted, the exterior of the apartment did show a little bit of wear. Because of the condition of the exterior of the building, Roger asked Larry about any roof leaks. Larry stated that he had never had a leak and was not aware of any leaks. Roger and Larry entered into a valid contract for the rental of the apartment. (Note: The issue of whether or not a contract exists is NOT part of this question.
For purposes of this question assume the contract is valid and there are no issues with the contract.) Roger Renter was very happy in his new location; the apartment was quiet and the neighbours were friendly. Larry Landlord was also very happy because Roger Renter was a model tenant. Roger Renter paid on time and was quiet and respectful to other tenants.
The part of the country where Roger rented was rainy in the summertime. Roger rented and moved into the apartment in October. In June, a tremendous rainstorm occurred and Roger’s roof began to leak. The leak was minor at first and Roger merely put a trash can under the leak and had no other issues that month. When handing over his monthly rent check, Roger told Larry about the small leak. Larry thanked Roger for letting him know about the leak and told Roger he would have it fixed. The next month the rains came again and the leak grew larger in Roger’s apartment.
Roger was not home at the time of the rain and therefore the leak damaged some of Roger’s furniture. Roger called Larry to let him know that there was a leak and asked when it might be fixed. Roger also stated that he thought Larry had fixed the roof.
Larry curtly stated, “When it rains, sometimes it pours. When it pours, sometimes it leaks.” Roger did not like Larry’s tone or response and called back to ask when the roof might be fixed. Larry stated, “When I get to it.” The following day, Roger sent Larry a note about the roof leak and asked Larry to please address the issue.
The week before the rent was due, another rainstorm occurred and the leak was even larger. This time the leak damaged Roger’s clothing, furniture, and some precious items he had inherited from family members. Roger called Larry and asked Larry to fix roof immediately. Larry responded in a similar and condescending manner. Roger hung up the phone and threw his baseball bat against the wall, damaging the drywall and knocking out an electrical socket.
Since it was the rainy season, Roger knew it would rain again and therefore simply moved his items away from the leak and did nothing to help mitigate the damage from the leaking roof. Larry came into the apartment to investigate the leak and found damage from not only the leak but also from the thrown baseball bat. Roger states that the baseball bat damage was a direct result of Larry’s inability to fix the leak based on his anger from Larry’s curt response. Suppose you are a mediator.
In five to seven (5-7) pages discuss the rights and responsibilities of the landlord and the tenant in which you: Explore the legal rights and responsibilities of the tenant and the landlord.
Decide whether or not the landlord and / or the tenant had a legal duty to mitigate damages. Determine whether or not Larry has legal grounds to evict Roger.
Explain why or why not. Describe whether or not Roger has a legal obligation to pay for the damage he caused and determine whether or not Larry would be liable for any direct damage. Support each response with facts presented in the scenario. Use proper legal terminology throughout your responses.

Question 1029 The Right to Die
Assume that you are working as a legal assistant in a law firm. Your firm has just been retained by Bob Stanton, a local man, whose wife, Freda is suffering from a terminal illness. It seems that Freda has been suffering from severe pain due to her illness and is asking her husband to help end her life.
Despite medical assistance and pain medication, Freda says that her pain is unbearable. Bob has retained your firm to advise him on the legal parameters for assisting his wife.
Specifically, Bob wants to know if Freda has the freedom to end her life, and if so, how it can be done.
