Legal Memorandum Khan vs. Randall
Defendant Ronnie Randall struck Plaintiff Janice Kahn's son Billy with his car while intoxicated with a blood alcohol level over the legal limit. Plaintiff claims Defendant intentionally hit Billy for revenge due to their recent breakup. Witnesses reported Defendant was upset and said he would get even with Plaintiff. The memorandum analyzes whether Plaintiff has a valid claim for intentional infliction of emotional distress and whether her son Billy has a valid battery claim against Defendant.
Legal Research Trial Brief Final Project
The brief argues that John Sham's motion to suppress physical evidence should be granted for two reasons. First, the detectives did not have probable cause to search Sham's vehicle as they did not observe any criminal activity during their 20-minute surveillance and approached Sham based on a "hunch." Second, Sham was not in physical possession of the narcotics found in Stan Macos' backpack in the trunk and mere proximity to the drugs is insufficient for a possession charge under New Jersey law. The brief cites relevant case law to support both arguments.
Legal Research Memo
1) Girardi & Stanton has a common law retaining lien that allows them to hold Mr. Gibson's files until their outstanding legal fees of $8,250 are paid. However, this retaining lien is passive and cannot be enforced through legal proceedings.
2) While Girardi & Stanton is entitled to the retaining lien, they must turn over copies of the files to Mr. Gibson and his new counsel to avoid prejudicing Mr. Gibson's legal matter against Cerone Wholesale Sporting Goods, as time is of the essence in that case.
3) Girardi & Stanton's assertion of the retaining lien to refuse to provide any files in this case would violate the rules of professional conduct

Smith v Prestige University Midterm
An oral contract for permanent employment was likely formed between plaintiff Smith and defendant Prestige University based on the consideration of Smith resigning from his secure tenured position and moving 200 miles for the new role. When accepting the position, defendant Clark stated he looked forward to Smith working at Prestige for the "rest of his life." However, the contract was probably terminable at will since disagreements arose between the parties in the 10 months Smith worked there, allowing defendant to fire Smith without breach of contract.
Personal Injury Complaint
William and Samantha Higgins are suing multiple defendants for injuries William sustained after slipping and falling on ice and snow outside Jones Pharmacy. According to the complaint, William fell and was injured on December 23, 2013 after exiting the pharmacy due to a buildup of ice and snow on the sidewalk that the defendants failed to clear. As a result of the fall, William suffered serious injuries, while Samantha claims loss of consortium. The plaintiffs are seeking damages, interest, attorney's fees, and costs from the defendants for their alleged negligence in creating a dangerous condition and failing to properly maintain the premises or warn of the hazard.
Legal Memo #2 Paralegalism
McCarthy's longtime client Arnold Munson and his son Donald have been sued jointly for an automobile accident involving Donald. McCarthy has been representing Donald and the pleadings have now been amended to include Arnold. McCarthy can represent both defendants if he obtains informed consent in writing from both. They must understand the risks of sharing confidential information and limiting certain defenses, as well as the lawyer's conflicting duties of loyalty. So long as both consent is obtained, joint representation would not violate the Rules of Professional Conduct for this lawsuit.
Legal Memo #1 Paralegalism
Mr. McCarthy wants to advertise McCarthy & Nettles' legal services through billboards and web pages linked to legal product companies. The legal memorandum discusses the permissible and impermissible forms of legal advertising under the New Jersey Rules of Professional Conduct. It notes that advertisements cannot make false or misleading statements about a lawyer's services. Specifically, terms like "Best Lawyer" are inherently comparative and misleading to consumers. The rules also allow lawyers to advertise through various media as long as the ads are predominantly informational and do not use attention-getting techniques lacking relevance to selecting an attorney.
Deposition Summary
Janice Kahn lives in Northbrook, Illinois and has been a high school teacher for 15 years. She was previously married for 12 years and has an 11-year-old son named Billy. On August 29, 2008, Billy was struck by Ronnie Randall while playing in Janice's front yard. Janice claims that Randall intentionally hit Billy as an act of revenge against her for ending their 10-year relationship two weeks prior. Billy sustained head injuries and broken bones that prevent him from playing baseball. Janice has since exhibited symptoms of shock and illness from the accident.
Legal Research Memo
1) Girardi & Stanton have a common law retaining lien that allows them to hold Mr. Gibson's files until their outstanding legal fees are paid. However, this lien is passive and does not allow them to withhold the files indefinitely.
2) While Girardi & Stanton are entitled to the outstanding $8,250 fee, they must turn over copies of the files to Mr. Gibson and the new law firm so the case is not prejudiced. Retaining liens should only be asserted as a last resort to avoid harming the client.
3) Mr. Gibson and the new law firm are entitled to receive the files, as withholding them would delay the case against Cerone Sporting
