A response that is affected by an independent variable. It is the key factor that needs explanation. Dependent variables include:
· Productivity: when goals are achieved at the lowest cost, i.e. being efficient and effective.
· Absenteeism: the failure to report to work. It is a huge cost and disruption to employers.
· Turnover: voluntary and involuntary permanent withdrawal from an organization. It results in increased recruiting, selection and training costs.

Competing for Limited Funding
In today's reality of shrinking budgets, states continue to look for money that is not being effectively spent. State legislatures want to ensure they are getting the most for their limited dollars. The legislature has requested you to present an overview of an effective juvenile justice alternative sentencing program that you are aware of from the text or your research, and explain why it is effective and why it should be funded. What is the intended population? What standard are you using to measure the effectiveness? Why do you think it is effective and worthy of continued funding?
Your colleague has made a presentation to the state legislature, and now it is your turn. You are the director of an intervention strategy (before your colleagues program) or a re-entry program (after your colleague's program) that is also being looked at to help fund other priority legislative programs. The legislature believes the juvenile justice system is too soft on crime and we need to get tough on crime. For this discussion, you may support either the rehabilitation camp or the get tough on crime camp as you prepare your answer. Make sure you address the social justice arguments based on your position. Build the case for one of the following:
a. Ensure that your program is a complimentary program to that of your classmate’s, but both programs are serving separate and distinct critical populations. Both must be funded.
b. That the synergistic effect of the two programs together will result in both programs being more effective in the long run, and, therefore, enhancing social justice.
c. That your program is much more cost effective; it should be funded at the expense of the program outlined by your colleague.
Your initial post should be at least 250 words in length
Connecting the Dots - What is an Effective Program?
In Chapter 10, the text addresses primary, secondary and tertiary prevention programs. What are these levels? Give an example of an effective program in each level. Give a brief description of each program, its intended purpose, and target juvenile population. Why do you think they are effective?
When responding to one of your classmates, address one of the programs with a focus on one of the text’s questions below concerning prevention programs. Select one bullet below and present the positives and the negatives for the issue addressed:
a. Does every juvenile who has been arrested need treatment? Should all juveniles arrested receive the same treatment services? Why or why not?
b. Should prevention programs be given to everyone, and if so, where? Should we consider ethnicity, race, education, socio-economic standing?
c. Are the services worth the taxpayer costs? Consider both financial and social costs.
d. Should we mandate prevention for school aged children, their parents, or for both? What if the parents refuse to participate?
e. What role does the state have in addressing pre-criminal, status offens.

pain when she was admitted to the hospital and was told to just sign the medical
treatment authorization form so she could be treated. Sally delivered a healthy baby,
and both Sally and the baby were released the next day in good health. The hospital
attempted to collect their bill from Sally’s insurance carrier but it only paid a portion of
the costs. The hospital then sued Sally for the balance. Is Sally liable for the balance of
the medical bill? Is Sally’s mother responsible?
4. In many other countries, contracts aren’t as strictly construed and don’t contain all of
the terms of an agreement as they do in the United States. Often, business people
from other countries complain that U.S. contracts are viewed too formally. Generally,
contract law in the U.S. requires all parties to a contract to continue to perform the
contract even when conditions have changed and make it more difficult for one party
to continue to perform. Do you believe contracts should be more flexible to allow for
changes in the terms of the agreement when conditions change? Or, do you believe the
terms of a contract should be viewed as an absolute irrespective of any change in
conditions? Explain your answer.

Here are the key points regarding the formation of a valid contract in the given cases:
Case 1:
(a) Yes, Ajay can hold Daman responsible as there was a clear offer from Daman to supply one laptop by March 31, which was accepted by Ajay. Daman's failure to deliver by the promised date amounts to breach of contract. Ajay can demand the additional Rs. 4000 from Daman.
(b) No, Ajay cannot hold Vishal responsible as Vishal did not make a clear promise but only said they will "try" to deliver in March. Without a clear and definite offer, there is no valid acceptance and thus no enforceable contract.

CASE OPENER
Upper Deck—Contract Liability or Gift?
In 1988 the Upper Deck Company was a company with an idea for a better baseball card: one that had a hologram on it. By the 1990s the firm was a major corporation worth at least a quarter of a billion dollars.
In 1988, however, its outlook hadn't been so bright. Upper Deck lacked the funds for a $100,000 deposit it needed to buy some special paper by August 1. Without that deposit its contract with the Major League Baseball Players Association would have been jeopardized.
Upper Deck's corporate attorney, Anthony Passante, Jr., loaned the company the money. That evening, the directors of the company accepted the loan and, in gratitude, agreed to give Passante 3 percent of the firm's stock. Passante never sought to collect the stock, and later the company reneged on its promise. Passante sued for breach of oral contract.

p. 343
1.
If you were on the jury, how would you decide the case? Was the offer of 3 percent of the firm's stock legal consideration for the loan? Or was it a mere gift?

Does Upper Deck have a moral obligation to give Passante the stock? If so, is this obligation legally enforceable?
The Wrap-Up at the end of the chapter will answer these questions.

NURS 6660 PMH Nurse Practitioner Role I: Child and Adolescent
February 3, 2019
Personal Philosophy Statement
Patient care is complex system that is delivered by a multidisciplinary team. Its success requires perfect harmony between the all the involving members. It is vital that the care we deliver as healthcare professional is patient – centered. Therefore, it is important to know the population that we are serving, its needs and its cultural background. In the United States more than any other country, healthcare providers should develop their cultural awareness and competence.
The stigma around the mental illness and the quality of treatment that mentally ill individuals receive have inspired me to become a psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner (PMHNP). I have felt the necessity to stand up and do what is right as my contribution to fix this urgent issue. In our society, physical or medical diseases provoke empathy, but we demonstrate disdain for people impacted by mental conditions. Like we always say, “See it and fix it”. So, passivity is as wrong as the wrong doing.
As a psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner, I will have the opportunity to care for a multicultural population with different conceptions or point of view about mental health. It is my role and responsibility to understand the cultural differences and provide support to those in need. I have learned that in the healthcare system, we should not be judgmental. My personal philosophy is to treat each and every patient as I would like to be treated. It is a moral obligation to use my knowledge to serve and educate individuals in my community. As a healthcare professional, I believe that I have the capability to change to way mentally ill individuals are viewed and treated. Through my philosophy, I will be able to advocate for holistic and empathic care for individuals with mental health conditions.
Self – Assessment
I have decided to transition from registered nurse (RN) to psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner (PMHNP) to better serve my community. So, I have always said and believe that the more someone has the he/she can give. When I decided to go back to school to pursue my goal, I said to myself “I have to choose one of the best schools”. Finally, I have chosen Walden University that I believe meet my expectations. For my Practicum, I have chosen the Compass Health System which has been established in the South Florida since 1990, and it is well respected in the community. They offer their services through their offices and most of the hospital with mental health crisis. They are one the major teaching facilities in mental health in the South Florida.
I have selected preceptors who have been working with Compass Health System for several years. So, they acquired a very solid experience in the field. I have taken great advantage of their experience to strengthen my assessment s.

Here are the key points regarding the formation of a valid contract in the given cases:
Case 1:
(a) Yes, Ajay can hold Daman responsible as there was a clear offer from Daman to supply one laptop by March 31, which was accepted by Ajay. Daman's failure to deliver by the promised date amounts to breach of contract. Ajay can demand the additional Rs. 4000 from Daman.
(b) No, Ajay cannot hold Vishal responsible as Vishal did not make a clear promise but only said they will "try" to deliver in March. Without a clear and definite offer, there is no valid acceptance and thus no enforceable contract.

Upper Deck—Contract Liability or Gift?
In 1988 the Upper Deck Company was a company with an idea for a better baseball card: one that had a hologram on it. By the 1990s the firm was a major corporation worth at least a quarter of a billion dollars.
In 1988, however, its outlook hadn't been so bright. Upper Deck lacked the funds for a $100,000 deposit it needed to buy some special paper by August 1. Without that deposit its contract with the Major League Baseball Players Association would have been jeopardized.
Upper Deck's corporate attorney, Anthony Passante, Jr., loaned the company the money. That evening, the directors of the company accepted the loan and, in gratitude, agreed to give Passante 3 percent of the firm's stock. Passante never sought to collect the stock, and later the company reneged on its promise. Passante sued for breach of oral contract.

1.
If you were on the jury, how would you decide the case? Was the offer of 3 percent of the firm's stock legal consideration for the loan? Or was it a mere gift?
2.
Does Upper Deck have a moral obligation to give Passante the stock? If so, is this obligation legally enforceable?
The Wrap-Up at the end of the chapter will answer these questions.

Consideration can be anything, as long as it is the product of a bargained-for exchange. In a business context it is often (.

NURS 6660 PMH Nurse Practitioner Role I: Child and Adolescent
February 3, 2019
Personal Philosophy Statement
Patient care is complex system that is delivered by a multidisciplinary team. Its success requires perfect harmony between the all the involving members. It is vital that the care we deliver as healthcare professional is patient – centered. Therefore, it is important to know the population that we are serving, its needs and its cultural background. In the United States more than any other country, healthcare providers should develop their cultural awareness and competence.
The stigma around the mental illness and the quality of treatment that mentally ill individuals receive have inspired me to become a psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner (PMHNP). I have felt the necessity to stand up and do what is right as my contribution to fix this urgent issue. In our society, physical or medical diseases provoke empathy, but we demonstrate disdain for people impacted by mental conditions. Like we always say, “See it and fix it”. So, passivity is as wrong as the wrong doing.
As a psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner, I will have the opportunity to care for a multicultural population with different conceptions or point of view about mental health. It is my role and responsibility to understand the cultural differences and provide support to those in need. I have learned that in the healthcare system, we should not be judgmental. My personal philosophy is to treat each and every patient as I would like to be treated. It is a moral obligation to use my knowledge to serve and educate individuals in my community. As a healthcare professional, I believe that I have the capability to change to way mentally ill individuals are viewed and treated. Through my philosophy, I will be able to advocate for holistic and empathic care for individuals with mental health conditions.
Self – Assessment
I have decided to transition from registered nurse (RN) to psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner (PMHNP) to better serve my community. So, I have always said and believe that the more someone has the he/she can give. When I decided to go back to school to pursue my goal, I said to myself “I have to choose one of the best schools”. Finally, I have chosen Walden University that I believe meet my expectations. For my Practicum, I have chosen the Compass Health System which has been established in the South Florida since 1990, and it is well respected in the community. They offer their services through their offices and most of the hospital with mental health crisis. They are one the major teaching facilities in mental health in the South Florida.
I have selected preceptors who have been working with Compass Health System for several years. So, they acquired a very solid experience in the field. I have taken great advantage of their experience to strengthen my assessment s.

Course Description
This course explores key philosophical concepts from an ethical perspective. Students will analyze selected assertions of knowledge and the methods of reasoning humans use to justify these claims. Through research into theories of science and religion, as well as the theoretical and empirical challenges these institutions of thought face, students will also investigate how the mind constructs and understands reality. This will provide a foundation for an exploration into questions of morality, in which students will look at traditional and contemporary ethical theories, and apply these theories to contemporary moral issues.
Course Design
In this course, students will be introduced to various ethical theories and practical ethical issues. 1) Students will examine and engage dominant theories of ethics, as well as relativism, and how the relativist position argues against universal ethical principles. Students will utilize what they learn about those ethical theories to examine a contemporary ethical issue and reflect on their own ideas about relativism. 2) Students will examine consequentialist ethical theory and responses to the consequentialist position. 3) Students will examine deontological ethical theory. 4) Students will examine virtue ethics. 5) Students will examine feminist ethics and how feminist ethics relate and attempt to break free from the previous ethical positions. While students are learning about the various ethical theories they will also examine articles that utilize the theories to make arguments in relation to contemporary moral problems. Students will ultimately be asked to choose a contemporary moral problem and apply the ethical theories to the moral problem, while also explaining which theory they find to provide the strongest position.
Course Learning Outcomes
Upon successful completion of this course, students will be able to:
Define the nature and scope of morality and ethics.
Differentiate among traditional ethical theories.
Interpret philosophical thought through critical thinking.
Apply the concepts of ethical and moral reasoning to contemporary issues.
Determine one’s own ethical perspectives through personal reflection.

The Executive Summary outlines the observations of the organization. The Executive Summary is the first section of the paper however it is the last section to be written.
The reason for writing this section last is that you need to have written the entire document so that you are able to identify the key ideas the reader expects in the paper.
REMEMBER the Executive Summary is for the EXECUTIVE. This means it needs to attract the Executive to either read the rest of the document or, more likely, refer the document to the appropriate staff person to read e.g. marketing, production, legal, etc.
This section can be as long as 1 pages and is clearly longer than a paragraph.

Course Success
Habits Matter
1. Professors are influenced by your behaviors (texting, excessively late/absent, etc.) which could impact your grade.
2. Do your best with every assignment by asking questions and making corrections because details matter!
3. Do work early, procrastination will usually result in poor work quality or failure to submit assignments.
4. Participation helps collective classroom learning and increases the chance of receiving a favorable letter of recommendations.
Communicating Via Email
1. Start off by indicating your course name/section, day and time.
2. Subject: Intro. Criminal Justice 111-02 (Tues. 6pm.) Class Absence
3. Always type in your “main reason” for the email.
4. It should be an “attention getter” such as a newspaper heading.
5. Proof read your e-mail! Download and use Ginger application on phone
6. Always end email with your full name and student ID #
Writing Format
1. Use Times New Roman 12 point Font.
2. Keep margins at 1 inch
3. Click “No Spacing” at the top of your Microsoft Word document
4. “Single space” discussion boards and “double space” reports, midterm and final papers.
5. Subtitles should be bold and flush left/upper and lower case(center for research papers and don’t bold).
6. Indent (TAB .5) at the beginning of every paragraph.
7. Write short, clear and concise sentences (Do not type I think, I belive, I feel, etc. just state your point).
8. A paragraph is a minimum of 5 sentences. You must have additional paragraphs for sections having more than 12 sentences.
Subtitles
Use subtitles in every essay! This ensures that both you and the reader will remain focused on the topic in each section (see your college textbook). When a professor is reading an average of one hundred papers, one right after another, it can become confusing attempting to figure out what your specific paper is about.
Your subtitles should be like newspaper headings, short and grabs the readers attention. You should consider using subtitles for sections having more thanfour paragraphs. The ‘References’ subtitle (which is always last) should be centered. Look at the effectiveness of subtitles from Dr. King’s Autobiography.
Early Years
Born as Michael King Jr. on January 15, 1929, Martin Luther King Jr. was the middle child of Michael King Sr. and Alberta Williams King. The King and Williams families were rooted in rural Georgia. Martin Jr.'s grandfather, A.D. Williams, was a rural minister for years and then moved to Atlanta in 1893. He took over the small, struggling Ebenezer Baptist church with around 13 members and made it into a forceful congregation. He married Jennie Celeste Parks and they had one child that survived, Alberta. Michael King Sr. came from a sharecropper family in a poor farming community. He married Alberta in 1926 after an eight-year courtship. The newlyweds moved to A.D. Williams home in Atlanta.
Michael King Sr. stepped in as pastor of Ebenezer Baptist Church upon the death of h.

How to Build a Module in Odoo 17 Using the Scaffold MethodCeline George
Odoo provides an option for creating a module by using a single line command. By using this command the user can make a whole structure of a module. It is very easy for a beginner to make a module. There is no need to make each file manually. This slide will show how to create a module using the scaffold method.
How to Fix the Import Error in the Odoo 17Celine George
An import error occurs when a program fails to import a module or library, disrupting its execution.

Resolving import errors is crucial for maintaining smooth software operation and uninterrupted development processes.
LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

3. Larry, an Oregon resident, inherited land in Missouri.
Through a Missouri attorney, Larry sold the land to Will, a
Missouri resident, under a valid written sales contract. Larry
later refused to go through with the sales deal, so Will sued
Larry in a Missouri court.
Larry claimed the Missouri court had no jurisdiction over him
because has never been in Missouri or had any other contacts
with Missouri. Assume that the Missouri court has subject
matter jurisdiction in this case. Does the Missouri court
otherwise have jurisdiction to hear this case?
A. No, because there is diversity of citizenship in the case,
only a federal court has jurisdiction to hear the case.
B. Yes, because the Missouri court can claim in rem (property)
jurisdiction over Larry in this case as the owner/seller of the
3. Missouri property.
C. Yes, because the Statute of Frauds applies to the sale of
land, and the contract was written, the Missouri court has
personal jurisdiction over Will, and Larry.
D. No, because although the Missouri court has property
jurisdiction over Will, the court does not have the necessary
property jurisdiction over Larry in this case.
4. Jonah hired Marty, who is 16 years old, as his agent to buy
up to a maximum of 50 used Dell 101 model laptops at a price
of $200 each, or less. Marty bought 40 used Dell 101 model
laptops for $100-200 using a written contract. Jonah was
pleased with the laptops and accepted the contract and paid for
the 20 laptops.
Marty then bought 25 more Dell 101 model laptops for $150
each on Jonah’s behalf. Marty signed a written contract for the
purchase of these 25 laptops with the seller, Used Tech, Inc.
Jonah refused to accept and pay for these 25 laptops. What
reason would justify Jonah’s refusal to pay for the laptops and
honor the contract with Used Tech, Inc.?
A. The contract with Used Tech is illegal because Marty is a
minor.
B. There is no justification, the contract with Used Tech is valid
because Marty signed a contract with Used Tech for the
purchase of the 25 laptops.
C. The contract with Used Tech for the 25 laptops is voidable
because Marty acted outside the scope of the agency agreement
with Jonah.
D. This contract is voidable under the UCC because Marty is

5. Mimi took her granddaughter to Roller Coaster World theme
park often to ride the Thriller Diller roller coaster. The roller
coaster is in a fenced, gated area. Customers pay for the ride as
they board the Thriller Diller, or at the end of the ride as they
leaved the gated area.
On Saturday, Mimi and her granddaughter boarded the Thriller
4. Diller, and waved at the attendant as the ride began. At the end
of the ride, Mimi refused to pay for the ride.
The most likely conclusion is that:
A. Mimi’s actions implied that she intended to pay for the ride;
she is legally bound to pay for the ride.
B. Mimi’s actions implied that she intended to pay for the ride,
but she is not legally bound to pay as there was no written
agreement, or evidence of an agreement, such as a ticket for the
ride.
C. Applying the subjective intent test, Mimi is not bound to pay
for the ride because she and the attendant did not discuss the
need for paying for a ticket for the ride.
D. Applying the objective test, there was no clearly
communicated offer and acceptance, thus no enforceable
contract; Mimi is not bound to pay for the ride.
6. Sandy orally agreed to sell Rolf her house for $400,000.00.
Rolf gave Sandy a check for $10,000.00 as deposit on the house.
They agreed to complete the sale on a specific day in 3 weeks
when Rolf would pay Sandy the remaining $390,000.00 and
Sandy would give the deed for the house to Rolf.
2 weeks later Sandy went to Rolf’s home, returned his
$10,000.00 check, and told Rolf she had changed her mind
about selling her house.
Rolf believes they had a binding sales contract and that Sandy
must sell him the house because he gave Sandy a deposit for the
purchase of the house. Sandy believes she and Rolf did not
have a binding contract.
What would you conclude about the agreement between Sandy
and Rolf?
A. Sandy and Rolf had a binding contract; both agreed to the
sale and oral contracts can be enforceable.
B. Sandy and Rolf had a binding contract because Rolf gave
consideration for the contract by giving Sandy the $10,000.00
deposit.
C. Sandy and Rolf did not have a binding contract as the
contract had not been fully performed.
5. D. Sandy and Rolf did not have a binding contract; the contract
needed to be written to be enforceable under the circumstances.
7. Edgar, an independent contractor, was hired by ABC
Enterprises, Inc. (ABC) as a consultant to assist ABC in
implementing a new IT system. Edgar agreed to provide
consulting advice to ABC 10 hours per week for 6 weeks. In
exchange, ABC agreed to pay Edgar $2500 per week, payable in
a lump sum of $15,000 at the end of 6 weeks. Edgar and ABC
had a valid written contract including these terms.
After 4 weeks of consulting, Edgar told ABC he needed an
additional $500 per week for the remaining 2 weeks to cover
expenses. Edgar said ABC needed to pay him a total of $16,000
for the 6 weeks of consulting. ABC orally agreed to amend the
contract and pay the additional money.
At the end of 6 weeks, ABC was very satisfied with Edgar’s
consulting work. ABC gave Edgar a check for $15,000 for the
consulting but refused to pay the additional $1000 Edgar had
requested.
Edgar claims he and ABC had a valid contract to pay him an
extra $1000, for a total of $16,000.
What is true about the modified agreement, and the amount
owed to Edgar?
A. The modified agreement is enforceable because both parties
gave legal consideration for the new contract terms: ABC
agreed to pay an extra $1000, Edgar agreed to continue to
consult for ABC.
B. The modified agreement is enforceable because, under the
UCC rules, all contract modifications are valid if the parties
consent.
C. The modified agreement is unenforceable; ABC and Edgar
agreed orally to the extra $1000, but there was no written
contract covering the new contract terms.
D. The modified agreement is unenforceable because both
parties did not give new consideration for the contract
modification contract.
6. 8. Alternative dispute resolution (ADR) is an important
alternative for resolving civil disputes because ADR can:

9. Park Pharmaceuticals, Inc. manufactured a headache pain
relief drug that was marketed under the trade name, Free. A
study by the federal Food and Drug Administration (FDA)
revealed that Free is likely to cause high blood pressure in
users. Consequently, the U.S. Congress enacted legislation
prohibiting the shipment and sale of Free in the U.S., pending
further testing by Park and the FDA. This law banning Free is
probably:
A. Constitutional because the U.S. Congress has the power to
regulate activity that directly affects interstate commerce and
the ban on the sale of Free is clearly an effort to regulate
commerce of pharmaceuticals.
B. Constitutional under the police power doctrine to protect
consumers.
C. Unconstitutional because the law violates Park’s rights
under the equal protection clause of the U.S. Constitution
because the law treats Park differently than other
pharmaceutical companies.
D. Unconstitutional because there is no conclusive evidence
that Free is unsafe for consumers.
10. Wendell and Langdon signed a business contract with a
clause that provides that if a dispute arises they will submit to
7. binding arbitration to resolve the dispute. After they had been
doing business together for a year, a dispute arose under the
terms of the contract. Rather than submit to arbitration,
Wendell filed a lawsuit against Langdon. Most likely the court
will:
A. Hear the lawsuit in a trial, and then compel Wendell to
submit to arbitration, if appropriate under the circumstances.
B. Hear the lawsuit because Wendell cannot be compelled to
submit to arbitration as that would be a violation of his
constitutional rights; he is entitled to a jury trial upon request.
C. Require Wendell to submit to arbitration to resolve the
dispute.
D. Require Wendell and Langdon to enter into mediation to
reach an agreement.
11. An increasing number of food trucks operate in the city
center of Washington near tourist attractions and government
offices. Sometimes the food trucks park on the sidewalks,
curbside in the streets, and in parking spaces and tourist bus
routes, thus, impeding pedestrians and interfering with vehicle
traffic. The city enacted an ordinance that permits food trucks
to operate only in designated, marked areas off sidewalks and
off streets within the city.
Several food truck owners are upset and believe the ordinance is
an unconstitutional interference with their rights to operate
private businesses. They also believe the ordinance
discriminates against them because brick and mortar businesses
in the area do not have similar restrictions.
Which of the following statements is true about the ordinance?
A. The ordinance unduly discriminates against the food truck
vendors as other businesses in the area are not similarly
restricted.
8. B. The ordinance is a violation of the food truck vendors’
constitutional rights to operate their private businesses without
undue interference from the government.
C. The city can justify the ordinance as a constitutional exercise
of the right of governments to regulate private businesses for
any reason under the interstate commerce clause.
D. The city can justify the ordinance as a constitutional exercise
of its police power to protect the safety and welfare of the
general public.
12. Computers, Inc. (Computers) and Management Enterprises
Company (Management) agreed that Computers would sell
Management its computing business, including the land on
which the business was situated, for $600,000. Both Computers
and Management knew at the time the contract was formed that
the business and land were actually worth $1,000,000. Is this a
valid enforceable sales contract?
A. No, because Computers would not have agreed to sell the
business for 40% less than its value unless it was under duress
by Management to sell.
B. No, because $600,000 is not valid consideration for a
business worth $1,000,000.
C. Yes, provided the contract was in accordance with state
statutory law that permits real estate sales for 40% or more
below market value.
D. Yes, provided the contract was in writing, in accordance with
the Statute of Frauds, and the parties freely consented.
13. Fay was admitted as a new partner in Charmed City
Chocolates, a general partnership, in May 2017. In June, while

delivery employee negligently crashed into the rear of a parked
9. car destroying a bicycle mounted on the back of the car and
damaging the rear of the car.
Which of the following is true about liability for the employee’s
negligence?
A. Charmed City is not liable for the accident as it was the
result of the employee’s negligence.
B. Charmed City is liable for the accident, but Fay is not liable
as she was admitted to the partnership only 1 month prior to the
accident.
C. The delivery driver is an employee-agent of Charmed City,
and Charmed City is liable for the acts of its employees.
D. The delivery driver is an employee-agent of Charmed City,

14. Accounting Temps, Inc. (Temps) has 50 employees who
work in offices on two floors of Temps’ business office
building. There are no elevators in the building. Taylor, a
Temps employee for three years, has an office on the second
floor. Following a fall, Taylor has a permanent leg injury and
difficulty walking up and down stairs. Taylor requested to be
moved to a first floor office, but Temps stated there is no space
available on the first floor and that it would be unfair to move
someone else from a first floor office because all employees on
the first floor have seniority over Taylor. Temps promised to
move Taylor when a first floor office becomes available. In the
meantime, Temps offered to have another employee help Taylor
up and down the stairs to the second floor daily.
Is Temps handling the situation properly?
A. Yes, Temps is required to make reasonable accommodation
for Taylor, and has done so by promising to move Taylor to a
first floor office as soon as possible, and by offering to help
Taylor on the stairs daily.
B. Yes, Temps is required to make “reasonable accommodation”
for Taylor, but not at the inconvenience of other employees who
might have to move offices.
10. C. No, Temps should immediately move Taylor to a first floor
office or find temporary first floor office space until permanent
office space is available on the first floor.
D. No, Temps should install an elevator to the second floor if
first floor office space is available.
15. Jan went to a truck dealership and said that she wanted to
buy a truck capable of hauling a 5000-pound load, and that she
wanted the salesperson to recommend an appropriate truck. The

haul a 5000-pound load. Jan bought the truck the salesperson
selected. The truck was mechanically sound, but would haul

pound load.
E. All of the above.

use in his business. Counting on having a new truck, Dave sold
his old truck. Uncle now refuses to buy Dave the truck. Dave
needs the truck to operate his business and to get to his business
office.
Can Dave possibly enforce the promise and require Uncle to buy
the truck for him?
A. Yes, because the truck is a necessity for Dave and all
contracts for necessities are binding and enforceable for all
11. parties even if contract formation is flawed.
B. Yes, under promissory estoppel if Dave reasonably relied on
Uncle’s promise and sold his truck.
C. No, because Dave was not unjustly enriched because he did
not receive the truck.

neutral and failing to engage the emergency parking brake. The

garage door?
A. Yes, because Carl was negligent in parking the car.

Joan and Ron bought and paid for six dining room chairs from
Hills Interiors (Hills). Joan and Ron drove their car to the Hills
18. warehouse loading dock behind the store to load the chairs into
their car. The loading dock attendant was helping another
customer load furniture when Joan and Ron arrived at the dock.
Joan and Ron waited about ten minutes, then told the dock
attendant they would load the chairs themselves. The six chairs
were sitting on the dock in plain sight so the attendant agreed.
As soon as he was free, the attendant quickly came to help Joan
and Ron load the last of the six chairs into their car.
When Joan and Ron unloaded the chairs at their home, the leg
on one of the chairs was broken in transit. Joan and Ron
returned to Hills with the damaged chair and requested that
Hills replace it. They admitted the chair was not damaged when
it was sitting on the dock before being loaded into their car.
They further claimed that because the dock attendant was
unavailable to load the chairs when they arrived at the dock,
Hills should be responsible for the damaged chair. Joan and
Ron stated they were not professional furniture handlers and
should not have had to load the chairs themselves or be
responsible for any damage.
Should Hills legally be responsible for the damage to the chair?
Why or why not?
If you were the Hills warehouse manager, how would you
handle this situation, and what would be your legal
justification?
