Congress reiterated in Section 3(c)(1)(D)(ii) of FIFRA that EPA should make administrative decisions about how much money these manufacturers would get for damages from loss of their trade secrets. Union Carbide sued because they felt that the decisions should be made by the judicial court, not an administrative agency. The U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York held that the claims challenging the arbitration provisions were ripe for decision and that those provisions violated Article III. Standing was approved for all appellants, who took a direct appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court.

The quality of the disclosure is certified by the audit committee and the Company’s outside auditors. The certification required under Section 302 is a change under the Security and Exchange Commission. The certification required under section 906 is an amendment to the U.S. Criminal Code. The overlap of certifications increases the penalty for inaccurate disclosure and/or failure to disclose the required information (Deming, 2006).

The information that is shown in advertisements is truthful as it corresponds to the features of a product, and sometimes demonstrates the specialty of particular products than others. This is a great example of Jay Chiat’s saying which quotes, “Everyone thinks that advertising is full of lies, but it’s not what you think.” (chiat 12).This simply implies that advertising may contain both negative and positive features. Before an advertisement is broadcasted, it must go through and be ratified by the Federal Trade Commission. Any time there is a forged claim in an advertisement, they have the right to stop the advertisement from being published on television or any other media sources. “Someone always blows the whistle,” by chiat signifying that if something illegal has gone wrong in the making of the advertisement process, there is always the committee of the federal trade commission who can ban it to come into the market.
To those cases that have been opened after the bill was passed were immediately dismissed or denied. In Section 2 of S.397 states and explains all the findings and purposes of which the bill upholds or protects. S.397 was initially proposed because it imposed on the liability of an industry entirely because of others abusing the legal system. It counters our Nation’s laws which present a loophole in our legal system. Therefore, the executive, legislative, and judicial branch will enforce S.397 to protect firearm industries and our legal system from those attempting to hold them accountable for their criminal or unlawful misuse of firearms or ammunition products.
One needs to consider whether the sinking of the ship was an isolated event that was easily corrected, or whether it was a serious flaw that would require costly repairs. What needs to be answered regarding the flaw is whether the vendor, Captain Jack Sparrow, should have been aware of such a flaw; that is, was the flaw as a result of a patent or latent defect. If such defect was latent, was it known to the vendor. At common law, Davey Jones should also consider the principles of product liability, a branch of negligence law, arguing that Captain Jack Sparrow Inc. sold him a defective product that was not fit for its intended and known purpose. Davey Jones could also argue misrepresentation—he was induced to enter into the contract based on representations made about the quality of the ship.

An “auditor must obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence by performing audit procedures to afford a reasonable basis for an opinion regarding financial statements under audit.” (Prelecture Slide 14) The appropriateness of the evidence defines the validity or reliability and in order for this to be true it needs to be objective and free from bias.

I believe that this study was not ethical to conduct because it directly harmed another person just to get a statistic and a person would always get hurt based on the fact that human behavior follows normative influence almost every time. A reason for an ethics board to not approve a test like this one could be to just define ethics in itself, and use that explanation for your whole argument. Ethics is defined as a branch of philosophy dealing with values relating to human conduct, with respect to the rightness and wrongness of certain actions and to the goodness and badness of the motives and ends of such actions (Dictionary.com, LLC.
