The document discusses synthesizing legal information from multiple cases. It provides examples of three cases about trespassing that establish a collective rule. The rule states that a person is liable for trespass by entering land without permission, except when necessary to avoid physical danger, in which case they are only liable for actual property damage caused. The document emphasizes finding common threads across cases to derive the overall standards courts apply.

Libr 430 Week 8
The document discusses synthesizing legal information from multiple cases. It provides examples of three cases involving a neighbor trespassing on private property. The cases establish that:
1) A trespasser is liable for trespassing.
2) Necessity is a defense for trespassing but the trespasser is still liable for any damages.
3) Collectively, the cases mean a trespasser is liable unless entry was necessary to avoid danger, in which case they are only liable for actual property damage.

Key steps include researching apartments online, having references and past income documentation ready, determining if a roommate is needed, inspecting the actual apartment, understanding fees and responsibilities in the rental agreement, and obtaining basic household items.
Short Paper Final Draft
The document discusses whether getting what you want is morally right if it means others also get what they want. It argues that a Pareto improvement, where at least one person gains something preferred without others losing what they want, can be either moral or immoral depending on the situation. A Pareto improvement is moral if it involves a used car sale, but immoral if it involves buying illegal drugs, as drugs harm health and safety. While legal, lying may be immoral, and helping someone, though illegal, may be moral. Whether a Pareto improvement is moral requires examining each situation individually rather than assuming morality based on legality.

Torts
This week’s lecture will cover torts.
In some ways, torts are similar to crimes. Often, there is a wrong committed, and indeed, many crimes also include the commission of a tort. In fact, a tort also consists of elements each of which must be proven true by a preponderance of the evidence (this means that it is more likely than not that the elements are satisfied). However, as touched upon last week, a tort is a civil action where the plaintiff brings a suit against the defendant. As a civil action, the state is not a party and jail time is never at issue in a tort action.
This does not mean that torts are not a controversial issue. The infamous McDonald’s coffee case, where a woman successfully sued McDonald’s for hot coffee spilt in her lap, has become one rallying point for people decrying the excesses of the tort system. And many prominent commentators view tort reform is a serious issue in this country.
However, this lecture will mostly avoid addressing these complexities and will instead focus and further explaining what torts are.
We will discuss two broad categories of torts: intentional torts and negligence. As we continue, please note that these torts consist of elements. The plaintiff must prove each of these elements in order to be entitled to a judgment.
The first type of tort is an intentional tort. These torts require proof on intent. For these purposes, intent means that the defendant intended the consequences of his actions or knew with substantial certainty that certain consequences would follow from the act. Battery is an example of an intentional tort. Battery requires proof of an unexcused, harmful, or offensive touching to the body or something touching the body and intent. Thus, if the defendant pushes the plaintiff, the defendant is liable for battery if the conduct was unexcused and the defendant intended to push the plaintiff or knew that his actions would lead to the plaintiff being pushed.
The second type of tort we need to discuss is negligence. Negligence is a very important tort. The elements of the negligence tort are: 1) existence of a duty of care; 2) the breach of this duty; 3) a legally recognized injury; and 4) the breach of the duty must cause the injury. Although this area of law has a significant amount of complexity, the important issue to recognize in relation to negligence is that the law generally imposes a duty to act reasonably. This duty is owed to those who may be foreseeably injured by a failure to act reasonably.
For example, a motorist carrying a passenger owes duties to drive reasonably to other motorists and his passenger as these people may be injured if the driver is not paying sufficient attention to the road. Reasonably in this context is an objective standard. It is the answer to the question: how would a reasonable person act in the same circumstances? This tort differs from intentional torts due to the lack of the intent requirement.

ICLC PowerPoint Presentation (final)
The document discusses four primary jurisdictional issues affecting the insurer-insured relationship:
1) Venue, choice of law, and mandatory arbitration clauses that can modify parties' rights and obligations under an insurance policy.
2) How "four corners" vs. "all available facts" jurisdictions approach defense rights, obligations, and investigations.
3) How jurisdictions approach the legal concept of "breach" of the duty to defend and its ramifications.
4) How jurisdictions evaluate available damage rights and remedies.
The panel will explore these issues through moderator Gary Gassman and presentations from industry professionals.
Negligence.pptx
The document provides an overview of the key concepts and principles of negligence law in the UK civil legal system. It discusses three main points:
1. Negligence exists within civil law and allows compensation if a claimant can prove another has acted negligently according to the rules.
2. It outlines the three main elements to prove negligence: that a duty of care existed, this duty was breached, and the breach caused damage.
3. It examines these elements in more depth, explaining concepts like the duty of care, reasonable person standard, breach of duty through failure to meet the standard of care, and causation through the "but for" test and foreseeability of damage.

This case brief summarizes the key facts, issues, decisions and reasoning in the Supreme Court case McCulloch v. Maryland (1819). The case involved a conflict between federal and state powers, with Maryland attempting to tax the national Bank of the United States.

The ruling strengthened federal authority and weakened state sovereignty.

Insider Lease Agreements
It is a common play in real estate to create a separate operating entity to serve as a tenant and execute a lease between the owner of the property and himself. Typically, this happens in assets which serve as a real estate-based business, such as a retail property. The structured enables the operator to reduce the taxable income of the business and also provide a liability shield for the property owner. However, this arrangement can easily lead to some ethical issues, should the property owner become distressed. Where is the line between a savvy real estate strategy and unethical behavior? This webinar presents practice pointers on how to use the ABA Model Rules as a guide to navigating ethical issues in Insider Lease Agreements. Model Rules addressed include those that govern the client-lawyer relationship (Rule 1.7: Conflict of Interest: Current Clients); those that speak to the need for candor toward the tribunal and fairness to an opposing party and counsel (Rule 3.3 through 3.4); and the necessity for truthfulness in statements to others and issues surrounding unrepresented persons (i.e. Rule 4.3).

Student Survey
The survey data from 6 years of university library surveys found that the library is heavily used as a place and content provider, but that the value of these roles is diverging. While some services are strained, user discomfort is on the rise. Digging deeper showed interesting variations between colleges in how the library is used that could help assess current services and develop new ones. The survey was limited in scope but provides a starting point to discuss next steps and priorities.
