Task 2: The Business of Ethics Checklist

Structure: Memo (Section A) & Report (section B) or Report only?use your discretion.

Introduction:
In light of recent corporate scandals, the question has been raised whether an effective, enforced ethics program could have impacted the outcome of such massive instances of unethical corporate behavior. Because of the increased scrutiny of the actions of corporations and those who act on behalf of organizations, there has been additional attention placed on the ethical actions within organizations. Many organizations have responded to this increased scrutiny by establishing formal ethics programs to foster ethical decision making for business directors, officers, and employees. Effective ethics programs provide the opportunity for management to establish a culture that establishes ethical behavior, both inside and outside of the organization, as the business strives to eliminate unethical conduct.
Scenario:
Two weeks after you are hired as the elementary division manager by a toy company, you receive a memo from the manager of the quality assurance department. During routine testing, the quality assurance department identified a problem with one of the toys included in the elementary toy collection. The primary market for the elementary toy collection is elementary schools. A metal whistle that is included in the toy collection did not pass testing due to small traces of lead. The amount of lead included in the whistles was slightly above the U.S. legally acceptable limits for children ages 7 and younger. A large shipment of the elementary toy collection is scheduled to be shipped to schools in South America at the end of the week, just in time for the beginning of the school year. The approximate cost to reproduce the product and repackage the toy collections is $100,000.

Critical Legal Thinking Case Assignment One

Respond to the following Factual Scenario. Your responses must be in APA format. Although this rubric is based on a factual scenario raising legal issues, it can be adapted to a factual scenario regarding an issue of ethical principles or business principles. Business principles are the subject of this assignment.

Important Guidelines

1. Your score will be determined by evaluation of your substantive content. Your analysis and solutions as applicable must be based on the principles of law, ethics, or business principles presented in the text and on the course site--not merely on your opinions. You must describe how application of the principles of law to the key facts support your determination of the issues. You need to show the reasoning behind your decision.

2. The length of your response should be a minimum of one page each scenerio. Most responses will be from two to three substantive pages.

3. Key facts are those facts that determine if the principles of law or business are met. You do not need to repeat the factual scenario. Doing so does not meet the requirement of recognizing the key facts. You must still demonstrate you recognize those key facts.

This paper will have a 2 cover pages, including running head, short title, page numbers,title block, and abstract but they do not count against the actual paper.

A. Margins: One inch on all sides (top, bottom, left, right).
B. Font Size and Type: 12-pt. font (Times Roman )
C. Line Spacing: Double-space throughout the paper, including the title page, body of the document, references, appendixes, footnotes, tables, and figure captions.
D. Spacing after Punctuation: Space once after all punctuation. This includes using one space (not two!) following punctuation marks at the ends of sentences.
E. Alignment: Flush left (creating uneven right margin)


Factual Scenario:

Sterling, Inc. is a manufacturer of state-of-the-art computers. For the past ten years, Sterling has acquired all of its microchips from NoBugs Corporation, the only producer of chips meeting Sterling's high specifications. The relationship has been mutually profitable. Sterling could not have built its reputation as an industry leader without NoBugs's reliable and consistently high-quality products; Sterling's business has enabled NoBugs to grow rapidly while providing its investors with an attractive rate of return.

Some months ago, several of Sterling's computers exploded shortly after installation. Upon investigation, Sterling discovered that tiny imperfections in NoBugs's microchips had aggravated a dormant design defect in the computers, causing the explosions. Analysis of the chips indicated that they were indeed below specifications and that the imperfections were caused by a slight miscalibration of NoBugs's encoding equipment. NoBugs recalibrated the equipment and promptly resumed production of perfect chips.
Sterling's losses from the explosions??"lost profits, out-of-pocket costs associated with compensating customers for the explosions, and injury to business reputation??"are estimated to exceed $20 million. Sterling and NoBugs disagree on the amount of the loss for which NoBugs should be responsible. Sterling has a strong legal case for breach of contract against NoBugs. Sterling's CEO is considering a lawsuit. She asks you to prepare a report discussing litigation strategy and the advantages and disadvantages of litigation; and discussing pretrial planning should the company opt for litigation. Draft that report.

Factual Scenario:

Ron supervises delivery of flowers for a wholesale distributor of fresh flowers, Flowers. Inc. In order to accommodate one of the companys best customers, Ron offers to immediately rush a delivery of fresh peonies. All of the delivery trucks are currently out on delivery. Ron directs an employee, Ruth, to use her own vehicle to deliver the flowers.
Ruth carelessly parks her car on a steep hill, leaving the car in neutral and failing to engage the parking brake. The car rolls down the hill, knocking down an electric line. The sparks from the broken line ignite a grass fire. The fire spreads until it reaches a gasoline station one mile away. There is a tanker truck offloading gasoline to the stations gas tanks. The fire ignites the gasoline being pumped into the tanks, and one of the tanks explodes, causing part of the station structure to fall on and injure a passing motorist, Jim. Can Jim recover damages from Ruth; from Flowers Inc? Why or why not? Identify the cause of action. Discuss each element of the cause of action, and relate them to your assessment of whether Jim has a cause of action against Ruth. Discuss the legal doctrine under which Jim might also recover from Flowers, Inc.

Critical Legal Thinking Case Assignment One
Samuel Student
Joesph Lee College






Business Class
September 9, 2009




Abstract

The federal government has power to regulate interstate commerce under the Commerce Clause of the U.S. Constitution. States may regulate interstate commerce pursuant to their police powers. Such state regulation is invalid if it unduly burdens interstate commerce, or if it conflicts with valid federal regulation. The factual scenario presents a conflict between federal and state regulation of the dimensions of oil tanker ships entering Puget Sound. Analysis of the principles of law and key facts determines that the state regulation is invalid and the federal regulation is valid.

Critical Legal Thinking Case Assignment One

Analysis of the principles of law and key facts determine that the state of Washingtons regulation of the dimensions of oil tankers entering Puget Sound is unconstitutional.

Areas and Principles of Law

The areas of law applicable to the factual scenario are the Interstate Commerce Clause; state police power to regulate interstate commerce; and the Supremacy Clause
The Interstate Commerce Clause permits Congress to regulate interstate commerce??"commerce between the states, foreign nations or Indian nations. States can also regulate interstate commerce as part of their police power to protect or promote public health, safety, morals and general welfare. However, if the state regulation is unduly burdensome on interstate commerce it will be unconstitutional because it violates the Interstate Commerce Clause. Further, if Congress has regulated in the area: the Supremacy Clause prohibits conflicting regulation of the same area by the states; and if Congress has expressly provided that its regulation is exclusive, then the states are prohibited from any regulation in the affected area. (Bagley, C., & Savage, D., 2006).

Key Facts

Congress has regulated the design, length, and size of oil tankers in inland waterways. This regulation is also in coordination with foreign countries. There is no federal expression that its regulation is to be exclusive. The state of Washington has enacted conflicting regulations regarding the size of oil tankers traveling in its territorial waters. ARCOs oil tankers used to bring oil into Washingtons inland waterways comply with the federal regulation, but not with the Washington regulation. ARCO filed suit against Washington to have the state regulation declared unconstitutional.

Analysis

Congress has the power, under the Interstate Commerce Clause to regulate the size of oil tankers to conform to international standards. In this instance, the commerce of transporting oil affects commerce both with other nations, and between states. The state of Washington also has the right pursuant to its police power to regulate the size of oil tankers traveling in its territorial waters because it is related to safety. However, such regulation must not impose an undue burden on interstate commerce. The Wasington regulation violates the Supremacy Clause because it conflicts with valid federal regulation. An argument can also be made that the state regulation is an undue burden on interstate commerce because it requires a smaller size vessel than allowed by international standards.

Conclusion

The Washington regulation is unconstitutional because it violates the Supremacy Clause. It is also likely unconstitutional because it violates the Commerce clause by creating an undue burden on interstate commerce.

There are faxes for this order.

?In order to be contractual, the parties to an agreement (an offer and a corresponding acceptance) must intend to be legally bound by it. Where there is no such intention to create legal relations, the parties to an agreement can only rely on social or moral pressure to enforce its terms. Yet problems can arise because parties seldom declare their intention in regard to the legal enforcement or otherwise of their agreement. Therefore, it has become necessary for the courts to imply the intention of those parties from the surrounding circumstances of the case?.

Please see attachement and rewrite.

Create a corporate compliance plan for Riordan. Focus your plan on managing the legal liability of officers and directors of Riordan. The plan must also address how to handle situations when laws are violated or in question (such as when to call in legal counsel, what rights the employees have, or who to turn to when actions are taken against Riordan). Your plan must also include the following:

? Enterprise liability
? Real and intellectual property
? Governance principles of regulatory compliance requirements
? The specific international laws or aspects of the law that must be adhered to by Riordan and an outline of these steps for employees to adhere to these laws

Format your Corporate Compliance Plan as if you were going to distribute this to the officers and directors of Riordan. Outline the prevention and management guidelines of the legal aspects listed above. Implement enterprise risk management based on the COSO?s 8 interrelated components. COSO can be used to structure your plan. Be sure to incorporate key concepts from your readings where appropriate. You need to research requirements at the COSO

The student will submit a summary paper on the final day of class for the term, which will make up one component of the final grade. The paper should take an in-depth look at a legal/ethical issue or situation relating to current, previous, or potential future work environment(s) for the student. The summary paper must be a minimum of eight to ten double-spaced pages in length with a cover page, not included in the eight to ten pages, and include at least five, outside, scholarly citations (six if the text is used as one of the citations). A successful paper will contain all of the following:

Part 1- Abstract: Your abstract should be one paragraph, approximately 300-500 words, and must include the following: a clear concept of your research topic, the structure your paper will take, the sources you plan on using, and a working thesis statement. You may also include questions you are still struggling with and/or potential criticisms of your topic, which you then will have to address in your paper.

Part 2-Research Paper: This paper is a 5-6 page research paper on a topic of your choice and an abstract. This paper should incorporate multiple sources?at least five, but most likely more?to support every aspect of your paper (A good rule of thumb to follow is to have one source per page of your final paper). Be sure to include a variety of sources and opposing perspectives whenever possible?charts, interviews, books, scholarly journal articles, newspaper articles, credible websites, etc.

Both sections should use internal documentation and follow strict MLA guidelines for formatting, heading, and documentation. Papers should be typed?including the rough draft?and proof read carefully. The abstract will be on its own page with the paper stapled behind it.

This assignment is the culmination of all the writing and speaking you have been doing this semester in Rhetoric B. It is also the culmination of your year-long Rhetoric experience; in it you will combine the skills of summary, analysis, and synthesis; additionally, you will practice writing and speaking. It is your chance to make an "amateur's raid in the world of specialists" (Ballenger 72). You have proposed a topic and have had the chance to research, write and speak about that topic. Now is the time to pull together a coherent piece of writing, an essay, about the topic, for a general audience. Also, it is the time to consider what aspect of your topic you would like to present to an audience that has been "listening" to your topic all semester as part of our classroom discourse community.

.
- You must write a minimum of 10 pages, though a more reasonable and credible number is 12-15.
- You must have a minimum of 4 sources, though a more reasonable and credible number is 7.
- You must have an interview as one of your sources. Also, you should have a variety of other sources, such as books, scholarly articles, television shows, etc.
- You must use the MLA system of documentation. Proper documentation accounts for a large portion of your final grade. See Diana Hacker's handbook.

- Improper documentation is plagiarism. Plagiarism will result in an Honor Board hearing, with consequences ranging from course failure to expulsion.

- Remember that this essay is a synthesis of your voice and other voices; while I will "hear" other voices as you use them to support your propositions, I expect that the thesis, organization, introduction, and conclusion will be solely your original work. Do not write a *research paper* wherein you parrot back the ideas of others; instead, write a *researched essay* wherein you use the ideas of others to help your reader understand your central idea.
- You may use the first person "I" when appropriate.

In class, we will use templates to prepare a working thesis. From this, you should continue to build and refine your thesis so that it is narrow, specific, and arguable.


The topic of this Essay is Prostitution and the fact that it is violating the human rights of these women. And the fact that legalizing prostitution might not be the solution for this.
I would like to start my introduction with a story that has to do with the topic. And then transition to why I choose this topic and why it is important for me. Its important for me because I am from the a place where prostitution is legal and these women don't have any rights whats so ever. and that the government does not protect these women. I have to mention this ( Dominican Republic) in the introduction of my Essay.


Then, a strong thesis at the end of my introduction.

Each paragraph has to have topic sentences. Main points should be supported by quotes or ideas and then the analysis of those quotes. Then, you must answer the question, so what? why should we care?

The essay should be organized!! And every sources must be cited correctly.

The conclusion should be strong! Maybe mentioning the story from the beginning to wrap things up and restating the thesis.


Thank You!

Law - Business Organisation coursework

Mary and Joseph, shareholders in Kings plc, are concerned about the management of the company by its current directors. Here is an account of what the directors have recently done:
The directors of Kings plc, which owned a hotel, wanted to acquire two more hotels. The directors therefore formed a subsidiary company for the express purpose of buying the two hotels. Kings plc could only take a few shares of the new subsidiary, while the directors and the company solicitor bought up the majority of the new subsidiary?s shares. Subsequently the subsidiary was sold and the directors made a substantial profit.
Mary and Joseph want to know whether the directors were legally entitled to do this. They ask you to prepare an explanatory memorandum that they can take to the other shareholders at their next meeting. They also ask you what legal sanctions there may be against the directors.

Advise Mary and Joseph in regards to:
the legality of directors? actions and the relevant legal sanctions against the directors

Straight Talk About How To Do It Right

P. 351

1. Topic/Question
a. Narrowing down to a single issue. For example:
? Is the government justified to regulate or ban prostitution?
? Do we have a duty to become vegetarians?
b. Not a review/summary of others papers or arguments
? You can criticize/evaluate/mention others arguments and actually you should,
? But it should not be the only/main focus of your paper

A good philosophy paper is modest and makes a small point; but it makes that point clearly and straightforwardly, and it offers good reasons in support of it. People very often attempt to accomplish too much in a philosophy paper.

The usual result of this is a paper that's hard to read, and which is full of inadequately defended and poorly explained claims. So don't be over-ambitious. Don't try to establish any earth-shattering conclusions in your 5-6 page paper. Done properly, philosophy moves at a slow pace.

2. Philosophical, not empirical; Normative, not descriptive
a. Your paper is NOT about your ability to manage, describe, or integrate empirical data and findings
b. You should present your ability in reflecting, analyzing, and formulating normative arguments and the concepts, values, and logic related to them

3. Your essay outline should consist of:
a. Topic/question
b. Stipulations(definition/explanation) of key words/ phrases/ concepts
Main line of argument
? What claim, stance or position you want to argue for or against
? For example
? In this paper, I argue that X is morally justified for the following reasons
? X is justified under circumstances Y and Z because of reason A
? The view X is right from the perspective of P because
c. Framework/skeleton/structure of your essay
? How you are going to argue for or defend your claim/stance/position
? Your flow of argument
? Steps of your argument, e.g.:
? Firstly, I will show that Secondly, I will Thirdly, ;
? Given that Y = X, then Y = ZIf Y = Z, then A should followIf A is what follows, we should not P
d. Anticipated counter-arguments
? One or two
? Choose an argument which can post a serious challenge to your position and show how this argument can be rebutted (it is not fruitful to imagine some silly counter-arguments and knock them down)
e. Reading List
? The reading you are actually going to use
? Please go beyond tutorial reading, that will never be enough

4. Basic structure of an essay (for reference only)
a. An introduction
? The question in discussion
? Basic information concerning the topic (eg. some of the current major views on this topic; NOT giving a history lesson)
b. The problem (sometimes merged with introduction)
? Elaboration of the problem
? Your stance/claim on the issue
c. The criteria for solving the problem
? What premises must you successfully argue for the claim to be valid
d. The positive arguments (fulfilling the criteria)
e. Preempted objection
? Best objections against your case
f. Response to the objections
g. Conclusion

5. Some issues concerning argumentation
a. Remember: a scattered point is not an argument;
b. An argument is formed by a number of premises
c. Start the paragraph of an argument with a topic sentence that can summarize the whole argument in one line
d. Deduction
? Inferring from a number of premises, we can a conclusion
? If inference is valid, and premises are true, the conclusion is true
? Basic form:
? Premise 1
? Premise 2
? Premise 3
? Conclusion
e. Abduction
? Considering all (or most) of the relevant information, X is the most possible conclusion
? Unlike deduction, it does not exclude the possibility of other answers, but X is the most possible one.

6. Language
a. Clear English is preferable
b. Precise (Make sure your words convey your ideas) and Concise (Do not use two words if you can use one)
c. Proof-read to avoid careless mistakes (grammar, sentence structure)
? Proof-reading for each other is usually more effective
d. Be organized and structure your essay well
e. Comply to the word limit (10%+/-, excluding bibliography and footnotes)


7. Some useful sources for learning how to make an argument
a. General skills
? The philosopher's toolkit : a compendium of philosophical concepts and methods/ by Julian Baggini
b. Good illustration of effective argumentation
? Justice: whats the right thing to do?/ by Michael J. Sandel
? Philosophical ethics/ by Stephen Darwall

In this assignment you will explore the dimensions of your own theory of interpretation. As your format, you should structure your discussion as a law journal article. You may ofcourse, deal with the specifics of one or more legal case(S) as a vehicle for framing the larger philosophical debate. But your primary concern is philosophical. Your essay will range far beyond the scope of any particular case so be sure to construct your thesis in a way that permits you to engage the larger theoretical issue. Since your thesis will be much broader than the particulars of any one case, you should not be constrained in the material you cite and discuss-that is, utilize whatever legal or philosophical texts you deem relevant to your discussion. You may think of your essay as a response to this question: What interpretative theory should govern judges as they adjudicate questions of law?

Here are some things you may wish to pay special attention to:
Thesis-Is the thesis sufficiently broad, functioning as an "umbrella" for all the significant ideas in the paper? Is it sufficiently precise, going beyond a simple position statement to forecast some of the rationale that will be offered?
Introduction-Does the introduction to the paper provide enough background for the argument?Does the paper frame a debate so that we can understand the range of possible positions?
Organization-Does the paper seem to flow logically from one point to the next? Does the paper's organizational strategy come easily into view, perhaps through the use of sharply defined topic sentences (important)?
Support-Are ideas and assertions backed up with citations and discussions of outside material? Does the writer discuss the ideas of other writers who have made significant contributions to the conversation in the topic field?
Response to Opposition- Does the paper demonstrate an awareness of alternative points of view-and respond to them effectively?

This is as specific as i can get. Good luck!

Torts Essay Question:

?Starting in 1990 or thereabouts, there were new developments. Far from being a dying cause of action, as some forecasts had envisaged, there was a re-awakening of interest in Wilkinson v Downton, as plaintiffs sought remedies for harassment, bullying and a variety of other forms of unpleasant conduct which lay outside the confines of trespass to the person, and the number of reported cases multiplied greatly.?

Peter Handford, ?Wilkinson v Downton: Pathways to the future?? (2012) 20 Tort Law Review 145 at 146.

Discuss whether the cause of action in Wilkinson v Downton offers a viable remedy to victims of intentionally inflicted psychiatric harm in Australia today. What limitations, if any, are inherent in the cause of action? Is there any doubt about the future of the cause of action in the High Court of Australia ? explain why this is or is not the case?

You must refer to the primary sources (cases/relevant legislation) and secondary sources (journal articles, reports etc) referred to above. It is strongly recommended these sources be based upon the Australian context. You will need to use the library?s databases in order to locate the relevant materials. It is NOT sufficient just to refer to textbooks. Google is NOT a research tool!

Essays must be 2000 words or less in length. Students must display an accurate word count on the title page of the assignment; approximate counts will not be accepted. Students will be allowed a 10% leeway either side of 2000 words.
Students who exceed the upper word limit will be penalised one mark for every fifty words in excess of the limit. Word limits do not include footnotes or the bibliography.

Footnotes and bibliography are essential components of the assignment. Correct referencing (in accordance with the Australian Guide to Legal Citation) is essential. http://www.law.unimelb.edu.au/files/dmfile/FinalOnlinePDF-2012Reprint.pdf
