Question A: Likelihood of Kimberly’s claim being successful: With the central issue in Kimberly’s circumstance of being physically and mentally impaired due to the shutters of the Bed & Breakfast house flying off and as a result, hitting the plaintiff (Kimberly), there is a high possibility that Kimberly’s claim will succeed. As a result of Elle being aware that months after the shutters were installed, she noticed splinters in the wood and damage in some of the shutters but took no precautionary measures to ensure that the risk of harm was eliminated, Kimberly’s claim of negligence on behalf of Elle is likely to be successful. With revelation to Elle’s failure to eliminate the risk of harm, Elle’s lack of action to take reasonable care has…

However since he did not like the assignment, he decided to resign and work for the company’s competitor. While there, he began to solicit Heritage’s customers and even enticed one of the employees to join him in his new organization.

But Heritage was able to produce evidence that McGlothen has in his custody sensitive documents which were stamped “confidential”.…
I sat in on Judge Hubert’s court. Judge Paul Hubert is the presiding judge for Catch Court in Franklin County. Catch Court is located in Columbus, Ohio at 375 South High Street. What is does ‘Catch’ stand for in Catch Court? “Catch stands for Changing Actions to Change Habits” (Hubert, 2017). Why did you start Catch Court? Judge Hubert saw a need for women who were coming through his court. These women for victims of human trafficking not prostitutes. These women were victims and needed help. “One day I saw a woman come in with bruises and thought it was a domestic violence victim. I looked down at the file and saw she was a defendant — "prostitution," said the charge. It then hit me that these women had the same bruises, broken bones,…

However, the accused is already on the bus terminal when the police caught him.…
