The law is a system of rules organising the rights, obligations and responsibilities in, or members of, a sovereign state. A cultural institution – an invention of the people. Youtube – introduction to Australian law. (shenanigans videos) Functionally, the law is a system of rules recognised and applied by the courts.

I will explore contracts between employees and employers, how can they be terminated, and if so does the employee get paid till the end of the contract. I will discuss the possibilities of just causes on the employee or employer can they be used to terminate the contract. awkward Do the different states have laws that help the employees or the employer? At the end of this research I hope to show trends in the law as it has changed in the past 10 to 15 years. The History of the Law The At-Will law was first created? by Horace Wood (1877). As my research has let me to believe Mr. Wood only created the concept of At-Will employment, he stated that the courts have already accepted it as the doctrine of the time. Mr. Wood’s statements were the catalyst of what’s the beginning of a number of new laws creating the At-Will employment doctrine. In his writing Sandler (2000), also agrees that Mr. Wood helped the courts pull away from the rules and laws set by the English at the time and helped to establish the new law for the USA. The general rule in American employment has...

...Acme Fireworks Kelvin M. Spencer BUS 311 – Business Law I Professor David MacKusick December 4, 2015 I have been hired by Acme Fireworks Company to manage their company. As the manager I have been asked by the Owner to evaluate and re-evaluate the direction the Company is moving and provide effective feedback that can help make the company operate better. In this paper I will address whether or not the contracts will be governed by common law or the UCC (Uniform Commercial Code). I will also analyze whether the owner formed a contract with other businesses and apply the five essential elements of an enforceable contract. Next I will explain potential personal liability to Acme Fireworks if a spectator is injures by a stray firework from a fireworks display. Then I will discuss the different employment types and relationships relevant to agency law and analyze the advantages and disadvantages of each type specific to Acme Fireworks. And finally, I will explain why Acme Fireworks should not operate as a sole proprietorship. I will recommend a new business entity, and provide rationale to support my recommendation.

...Running Head: UNIT THREE WRITTEN ASSIGNMENTS Unit Three Written Assignments Erin Schmidt Professor Vega St. Joseph’s College of Maine Prepared on November 30, 2009 1. Of all the people using the health care system today, how important are social problems on the use of the health care system? Social problems including AIDS, drug abuse, violence, and teen pregnancy are very important when considering the economy of the United States Health Care System. Unprotected sexual contact and sharing dirty needles account for the majority of persons infected with AIDS. HIV and AIDS affect human capitol due to the increased mortality of this group. Bonnel (2000) notes that younger individuals are dying of this disease, which translates to a decreased taxable population and reduction in resources for public expenditures. Medications such as antiretrovirals are very expensive. Henderson (2002) points out that drug therapy costs up to $16,000 dollars per infected individual per year. Additional economic impact can be thought of in terms of lost productivity, and lost days from work, which account for a significant impact on the labor supply. With regard to substance abuse, Henderson (2002) states “substance abuse is the leading health problem in the United States today” (p. 310). Costs associated with substance abuse include increased costs of medical care, lost productivity from...

...1857 (2004) RAWLSIAN FAIRNESS AND REGIME CHOICE IN THE LAW OF ACCIDENTS Gregory C. Keating* The political philosophy of John Rawls is pregnant with implications for the tort theory. Our law of intentional and accidental physical injury is rich with the rhetoric of reasonableness and fairness, and these ideals lie at the heart of Rawls’s political philosophy. The figure of the reasonable person is central both to the law of negligence—where it serves as the master criterion of justified risk imposition—and to the law of intentional torts—where it helps to define the contours of permissible self-defense, the sensibility by which the offensiveness of contact in battery is measured, and the content of the consent given in connection with matters as diverse as The concept of contact sports and medical operations.1 reasonableness figures prominently in strict liability as well. The intentional infliction of unreasonable harm triggers liability for damages in the law of nuisance, and strict liability in general can be fruitfully understood as a form of liability applicable when the conduct which leads to accidental injury is reasonable, but the failure to make reparation for the harm done is unreasonable.2 Principles of fairness figure more prominently in the judicial rhetoric of strict products liability than economic ideas of efficient precaution and efficient insurance do.3 * William T. Dalessi Professor of Law, USC Law School. For instruction and advice, I am grateful to Ken...

...individuals are consumers on the web, looking for information, researching, and purchasing products. Through social media, consumers are advancing from content consumers to content producers. Instead of researching, people can post their ideas, their personal or business information online on websites such as Face-book, twitter, My-space, blogging, and video marketing on You Tube. One of the largest consumers of social media is the Business to Business marketing that is currently ahead of the curve. “Marketing researchers at the University of Massachusetts at Dartmouth have released the results of a survey, showing that U.S. companies overwhelmingly use at least one social media tool in their marketing efforts” (Komarketing, 2009, p. 3). The research also pointed out that 62% of executives surveyed reported using or being familiar with Twitter. The report also showed that over half of the 500 companies were already using the popular micro blogging service as a part of their online marketing campaigns. An overwhelming 80% of the companies surveyed in the report use social media networks (Komarketing, 2009). Tools for Effective Messaging An analyst of social media, Jordan Julien who wrote the article the Social Media Achilles Heel, suggests that when blogging or marketing through any social media there are two important concepts to consider when sending consumer a message. First it is important to Know Yourself. Create content the employee knows about and focus on genuine & interesting...

...Notes For Criminal Justice (Unit 1) Muse: What lies ahead for the criminal justice system? We cannot say for sure. Some of the coming changes are now discernible. A few of the more obvious changes include: 1. a restructuring of the juvenile justice system due to increasing violent juvenile crime and youth gang warfare; 2. the increased bankruptcy of a “war against drugs” whose promises seem increasingly hollow; 3. a growing recognition of America’s international role as both victim and purveyor of worldwide criminal activity; and 4. The rapid emergence of cyber-crimes, which both employ high technology in the commission and target the fruits of such technology. Drugs and Crime The relationship between drugs and crime rests on the concept of drug abuse. Drug abuse is illicit drug use that results in physiological, social, psychological or legal problems for the user. A drug is any chemical substance defined by social convention as bioactive or psychoactive. A psychoactive substance is a chemical substance that affects cognition, feeling, or awareness. Most drug users are recreational drug users, using drugs relatively infrequently and primarily with friends and in social contexts that define drug use as pleasurable. Most addicts begin as recreational users. Drug crimes fall into two categories: 1. the use, possession, distribution and sale of illegal drugs and the offenses committed either under the influence of drugs or surrounding the growing, making...

...COMMUNICATIONS IN BUSINESS 100 Name: Anonymous 2 Student Number: 12345678 Email: anonym2@mail.au Company: Chevron Corporation Title: Corporate Social Responsibility: An Analysis of Chevron Other Details: Semester 1 2014, Bentley Campus (Word Count: 1568) Introduction Multinational Energy Companies, like Chevron Corporation, have a broad and significant social, economic and environmental impact on the globe and as such are in a position to influence the lives of many people. Chevron is involved in many different facets of the energy business, including exploration, refining, production and transportation. The company employs approximately 60 000 people in the oil and natural gas industry, with interest in 180 countries (Chevron Corporation SWAT, 2009). With the rise in global communication associated with the information age, companies like Chevron have to establish symbiotic relationships, focused on sustainable development, with society in order to satisfy increasingly environmentally conscious stakeholders. In this context a symbiotic relationship refers to one that is cooperative and mutually beneficial (Langella et al. 2012, 51). At the foundation of such a relationship is respect for health...

...Research Paper One: The Role of Federal Regulations in Corporate America ------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------- Richa Chopra ------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------- Kaplan University ------------------------------------------------- The Role of Federal Regulations in Corporate America Introduction Dishonesty, greed, cover-ups, and bail-outs are some of the things that come to mind when we talk about the America's financial economy. Are all the hundreds of pages of regulations laid down by the government working in America's favor or is it just another way for the CEOs and the executives for fortune 500 companies to manipulate the system and its people? The corporate governance system started with the corporate debacles and the ultimate crash of the stock market in the late 1920s. As a result government stepped in and created regulations such as the Securities Act of 1933 and 1934, to the ever so popular Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, to the more recent Dodd-Franck Law of 2010. The aim behind these regulations is noble. They are formed to prevent fraud, misrepresentation, bring more transparency and above all, prevent another financial crisis. But, how successful are these regulations? Are we over regulated or are we in need for more regulation? Investors and common public's faith in our economy and capital markets is shattering, they are demanding...
