BL Fact Pattern

Part A.

Tired of the lack of quality chocolates at international music festivals, Paul, John, George and Ringo decide to form a business specializing in the manufacture of delicious dark chocolate truffles. Paul, John, George and Ringo, each want to participate inthe management and control of the business but also wants to limit his personal liability for any wrongdoing of the business.

What type of business should they form and why?

What filings, if any, should they make to form this business?

What liabilities,if any, will each of them have if the company’s dark chocolate truffles cause anyone to become seriously ill?

If Paul, John, George and Ringo wanted to legally protect their recipe for the company’s dark chocolate truffles, what should they do and why? What else can they do to protect their intellectual property assets? Give examples.

Part B.

Assume that Paul, John, George and Ringo chose a business corporation as their choice of entity after consultation with their outside counsel. Their dark chocolate truffles business takes off and has become very successful. Paul, John, George and Ringo serve as the officers and directors of the corporation and each own 25% of the outstanding equity stock of the corporation. Assume you have been hired as a paralegal for their new legal department. The corporation currently has 275,000 shares of authorized capital stock and has issued all 275,000 shares to investors. You learn that the Paul, John, George and Ringo have decided to sell additional shares of stock to a group of private investors to raise money for the corporation to expand their truffle production. The General Counsel of the corporation comes to you and asks for your help with certain matters:

What steps will the corporation have to do to enable the corporation to sell shares of stock to the new private investors?

What characteristics or attributes should these new private investors have?

If the corporation decides to “go public” (i.e., sells shares of stock to public investors) what federal and state securities laws will the company have to comply with and why?

I’m working on a Law exercise and need support.

The Steeles went to Clayton’s Appliances store to purchase a clothes dryer. The clothes dryer was purchased brand new and was manufactured by Grey Enterprises. After purchasing the dryer, the Steeles read the instruction manual and followed all of its guidelines. The dryer worked perfectly for the first 6 months. Then one day Mrs. Steele was drying clothes when the dryer suddenly caught on fire and burned the house down. Mrs. Steele was burned significantly in the fire as well. It was determined that a defect in the dryer, specifically a faulty wire, was the cause of the fire. An expert testified that the wire should have been sheathed in blue-7 coating but it was sheathed in blue-6 coating instead. After obtaining documents from Clayton’s and Grey Enterprises, it was discovered that the dryer left Grey’s facilities in perfect condition with the proper wiring in place. During the shipment to Clayton’s, the dryer was damaged a little and Clayton had to make some minor repairs, including replacing the wire at issue. If Mrs. Steele sues Clayton’s and Grey Enterprises for negligence under strict products liability, what will the likely outcome be? Please prepare an IRAC essay addressing this issue.

Noting the questions asked by the instrument and the likely answers in a variety of situations (especially in a stressful environment like a jail), and then take a look at the video hosted on this website:

1) What is the purpose of the Sequential Intercept Model and how does it relate to diversion decisions?

2) What do you feel are likely to be more effective – prebooking or postbooking diversion programs and why? (Please include some analysis of the differences between the two.)

As with Chapter 2, for even-numbered chapters, I’m giving us all a break – NO APA format required. There is a maximum page requirement – answer the questions adequately in NO MORE than three pages.
