In week four’s theory practice, we reviewed the case scenario of Big Time Toymaker vs Chou in regards to determining the validity of a contract. As we’ve reviewed, an agreement or mutual assent is of course essential to a valid contract but the law imputes to a person an intention corresponding to the reasonable meaning of his words and acts. If his words and acts, judged by a reasonable standard, manifest an intention to agree, it is immaterial what may be the real but unexpressed state of his mind (Melvin, 2010).…

In this case study, we are looking into what constitutes a contract and when a person is obligated to honor a contract. In this scenario Carrie offered to sell a set of legal encyclopedias to Antonio for $300.00. Antonio said that he would think about her offer and let her know his decision the next day. Norvel, who had overheard the conversation between Carrie and Antonio, said to Carrie, "I accept your offer," and Carrie gave Norvel the books. The next day, Antonio, who had no idea that Carrie had already sold the books to Norvel, told Carrie that he accepted her offer. We need to determine whether or not Carrie is obligated to sell her encyclopedias to Norvel and whether or not she is breaching a contract with Antonio.…

What is an Ambulatory Surgery Center? It is a medical facility which is designed in order for people to be able to have elective same-day surgeries rather than having to deal with the amount of traffic which most hospitals have. Since it is not a hospital, it does not have emergency care. A facility such as this would mean that a patient does not have to stay overnight as they would if admitted to a hospital. The patient is able to go home once the procedure is complete. This type of organization does have a lot of legal issues; and some of those legal issues will be read about in this paper; issues that deal with physician ownership, Medicare cases, and even out of network waivers. A surgical center takes a lot of endeavor in running a surgical center as well as learning what type of legal issues might be included when running this type of a center.…
