Application: The Elements of a Contract A contract has three key elements: offer, acceptance, and consideration. If these three elements are not present, a contract may not exist. Sometimes, the presence of these elements can be elusive. For example, the mental intent of the parties may determine the existence of a contract. How can you determine a person's intent? Clearly, this is a complex area of law where litigation should be left to lawyers. A public administrator, however, may have to form contracts as part of his or her job responsibilities. As such, he or she must be aware of the elements of contracting so as to enter into the most advantageous agreement for his or her organization while avoiding illegal contracts. To prepare for this assignment: Review Chapter 8 in The Study of Law: A Critical Thinking Approach (4th ed.). Reflect on how contracts are formed, destroyed, modified, and broken. Review the article "Contract Law: An Introduction." Review the section "The Elements of a Contract" to refresh your recollection about the basic elements of contracts. Review the resource "Contract-Based Fact Pattern." Read carefully for facts that will assist in arguments for and against the formation of a contract. Identify elements of a contract in the fact pattern. Think about whether a contract exists in the fact pattern. Consider possible defenses against the formation of a contract in the fact pattern. The assignment (2–3 pages): Describe the elements of a contract in the fact pattern. Explain whether you think a contract exists. Use facts from the fact pattern to argue your opinion. Explain two possible defenses against the formation of a contract in the fact pattern. Support your Application Assignment with specific references to all resources used in its preparation. You are asked to provide a reference list for all resources, including those in the Learning Resources for this course. Submit your assignment by Sunday January 29, 2017 .

Agency Agency is a vague area of law whereby a person, called the "principal," makes an agreement with another person, called an "agent," to act on the principal's behalf in a legal relationship with a third person, called the "third party." As with most contractual relationships, the intent of the parties plays an enormous part in the legal outcome. For example, what if the agent, while representing the principal in a legal relationship with a third party, makes his or her own independent agreement with that third party about an unrelated matter? Is the principal entitled to the benefit of that independent agreement? What was the agent's intent? What was the third party's intent? Public administrators may function as either agents or principals. Accordingly, a public administrator must be able to analyze a situation for agency agreements. If a public administrator cannot successfully analyze agency agreements, he or she may unknowingly create agency agreements, act inappropriately, or damage the reputation of the agency he or she is serving. To prepare for this Discussion: Review the assigned pages of Chapter 10 in the course text The Study of Law: A Critical Thinking Approach (4th ed.). Reflect on situations in which the public administrator may be an agent or in which the public administrator might create an agent. Review the article "Contract Law: An Introduction." Focus on the section "oral contracts" to explore how traditional contract elements can be present in quick, oral communications. Consider the scope of an agent's authority to impose an obligation on his or her organization. Consider the formation of an oral contract. Reflect on any insights you had and conclusions you drew about contracts during your preparation. With these thoughts in mind: Post a 300 word explanation by Thursday January 26, 2017 regarding the scope of an agent's authority to impose an obligation on his or her organization. Be specific, explaining whether an oral contract exists, and why or why not. Then, explain at least one insight you had or conclusion you drew about contracts. Support your work with proper APA citations from the Learning Resources and any other sources. .

Assignment #5 100 points _______________________________________________ A Comprehensive Position on Psychoactive Substances _______________________________________________ Preparation: By this point in the course, you have been exposed to a variety of different sources of information that attempt to contextualize psychoactive substance use in the United States. You also have written a number of short essays that focus on different substances and facets of use. Today’s assignment focuses on your ability to articulate a cohesive “summary” of your attitudes, beliefs, and understanding based on these experiences. Your Assignment: You have been hired by a non-partisan “think tank” to draft a position statement on psychoactive substances in the United States. This statement will be distributed to congress, members of the media, judicial agencies, public health agencies, and other interested parties. The purpose of the statement is to encourage a paradigm shift – to suggest a new way of thinking about psychoactive substances, or, if you wish, to reinforce current ways of thinking. Content for this statement should include (examples are provided on the reverse of this sheet): - What is the psychoactive substance that is most important to address in the United States? Choose one. - What current strategies address use of that substance? - What new strategies do you suggest to address that substance, if any? What You Need to Submit: This assignment should be a minimum of 1,250 words. Grading: Thorough examination of the issue 80 points - Part One (Selection of Most Important) (20) - Part Two (Current Strategies) (30) - Part Three (New Strategies) (30) Grammar/Spelling/Length 20 points Brief Sample Assignment: Most Important Substance: Here, I’m looking for you to select a single substance (i.e., cigarettes, alcohol, marijuana, etc…) that you think is important to address. Then, explain why it is the most important substance. A shortened example might be: “Marijuana is the most important substance to address in the United States because it’s the most contentious in terms of law. In other words, it is the area of the most conflict between state and federal governments.” - Then, tell me how you came to this conclusion (i.e., the standard that you used to determine this). - Provide examples Current Strategies: Identify one or two current strategies (such as MLDA 21, drug scheduling, warning labeling on cigarette packages, etc…) that have addressed the use of that substance. Then, tie them in to the issue you identified in the first part of the assignment. For example, “Marijuana remains illegal at the federal level with no accepted medical uses. This is because the FDA has stated that it will never approve a smoked substance as a medical product. However, this quickly is becoming a law without teeth, as .

Running Head ELEMENTS OF A CONTRACT 1 .docx

Running Head: ELEMENTS OF A CONTRACT 1 ELEMENTS OF A CONTRACT 6 Elements of a Contract BUS 670 Legal Environment 12/11/17 Elements of a Contract A contract of employment refers to the agreement between the employer and employee that forms the basis for an employment relationship. In most cases, a contract takes effect as soon as an employee employment offer is accepted. By starting to work ideally demonstrates that the employee has accepted the employer’s terms and conditions bade. However, an existing employment contract can only be varied with the understanding of both parties. To grasp entropy behind varying or changing a contract. Contract cancellation occurs when either party involved ends a contract supposedly for a violation by the other. The party that cancels that contract retains any remediation for the violation of the contract. When one party breaches the terms and conditions of the signed contract, the other concerned party bears the right to cancel. As such, the integral contract may be rolled down, refunding of previously payments and ending any remaining obligations. Contract termination falls out when either party involved ends a contract in other respects prior to a breach as perceived by the scenario. With this integral occurrence, any components of a contract that had initially to be accomplished will be left behind, but any future obligations that are not yet carried out will cease. However, like the binding of the contract, the requisite elements of contract terms that must be established in order to demonstrate the legal formality for the process involves; offer, acceptance, consideration, mutuality of obligation and competency (Tepper, 2014). About to offer, it is crucial to check out the terms and conditions of the agreement of a termination or rescission clause. Recession basically relates to the act of rescinding; the cancellation of a contract and the return of the parties to the positions they would have had if the contract had not been made (Morawetz, 1925). Some contractual agreements might automatically terminate the contract after a fixed event or term while some can be canceled officially without the permission of another party. If the contractual agreement is arranged to terminate within the near future, then one might only allow the contract to lapse. All the same, if the contract agreement has a friendly rescission clause, then contract termination may not be of the essence. Following the apprehension of the terms and condition, one is thereby expected to verify whether the agreement is accorded a notice provision. Much of contractual agreements require that all established correspondence among the parties involved be executed through communication in writing. Set off the address of o.

Text Seaquist, G. (2015). Employee and labor relations: A practical guide. San Diego: Bridgepoint Education · Chapter 7: At the Bargaining Table · Chapter 8: Grievances, Mediation, and Arbitration 7.1 Collective Bargaining What is collective bargaining, and why is it such an essential right of organized labor? The theory behind collective bargaining is that it reduces the power differential between management and workers, making the relationship more equal; by compelling management to come to the table and meet with workers, there is a significant shift in power. This section sets the stage for the process of bargaining. It explores what it means that unions are the exclusive representatives of their bargaining unit and reviews the three classifications of bargaining subjects: mandatory, permissive, and illegal. The Principle of Exclusive Representation In Chapter 4 we saw that a first step of unionization was for workers to identify who should be a member of the bargaining unit. Once that was established, workers in the designated bargaining unit signed authorization cards, and if at least 30% of the workers voted to unionize, the process of moving toward an election could begin. If the prerequisites were met and an election took place, the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) certified the union, which meant it then became the exclusive representative of that bargaining unit. Exclusive representation is an important concept that is found in Sections 8(b) and 9(a) of the Labor Management Relations Act of 1947. Those sections explicitly empower a union that represents a majority of the employees in a bargaining unit to act as all employees’ exclusive representation in collective bargaining. Exclusive representation has a number of meanings. One is that the employer may not bargain with any other employees, no matter how well intentioned the conversation. Nor may the employer engage in discussions with another union purporting to represent some of the workers. The certified union is the only one with whom the employer may deal. Exclusive representation obligates all workers in the bargaining unit to participate in union activities, though individuals may choose not to be a member of the union if they have that option. In many states, by law, workers cannot be mandated to join a union or pay dues as a condition of employment. These are referred to as right-to-work states. Despite the fact that the bargaining unit may include workers who do not agree with the union or its philosophy, the union has the duty to represent each worker equally and without bias, no matter their status (union or nonunion; dues paying or not). In the News: Challenging the Right to Exclusive Representation Twenty-seven thousand home care workers are part of a union that represents workers who are paid by the state to care for disabled or elderly patients. The National Right to Work Legal Defense Foundation filed a lawsuit in 2014, however, challenging the union’s r.
