(Carroll, J. 2002) Plagiarism, what is it, why forbidden and the consequences. Plagiarism is the use of or passing off as our own the work of someone else, without giving credit to the originator through acknowledgement, usually for our own gain. Plagiarists pass off or give a false impression that what they are presenting, whether it be words, ideas or thoughts, belongs to them, that they were the first to come up with it. (Carroll, J.
b. Was there a misstatement of material fact? Yes, because it is information that influenced, in this case, the buyer into acting in a certain way or making a certain decision. c.

Application: Mrs. Mitchell's insubordination, improper attire, name calling and other conduct evinced a wilful disregard of the interest of the Center. Even though each separate incident may not have been sufficient in itself to constitute misconduct, taken in totality Mrs. Mitchell's conduct deviated sufficiently to classify it as misconduct under the above test. Conclusion: The district court is reversed and the decision of the Commission is
If the pedestrian sues the company, Hotspur, there can be a recovery for the injury. The principal (employer) becomes liable for the agent's (employee) torts (wrongs), if the torts are committed within the scope of the agency or scope of the employment. This would fall under the theory of liability called “the doctrine of repondeat superior” and imposes indirect liability on a principal without regard to the personal fault of the principal for torts committed by an agent in the scope of the agency. In this case, the employee was not necessarily acting outside the scope of employment merely because she does something that he should not do. The employer cannot disclaim liability simply by showing that the employee had been directed not to do what he did.
Therefore, there is a situation of Undisclosed Principal, where an agent acts without disclosing either the existence of a principal or the principal’s identity and the agent is directly liable to the third party. If Newcorp’s senior management is concerned over his public display of his personal views as a basis for his termination the judgment is erroneous. However, there might have been some apprehension over the agency relationship to third parties because principals have both contractual and tort liability for certain acts of their agents (Jennings, 2006). The contract liability of a principal is not only determined by either what he intended or by the limitations agreed to privately by the agent and the principal, but also the third parties have certain contract enforcement rights depending on the nature of the agent’s work and the authority given
This can also be judged not constitutional under the condition of the antitrust violation that simply a company in the State of Confusion will be able to construct this product. Given that the businesses are the only ones that can build this certain type of hitch the company becomes in control. So it doesn't open restrictions for rivalry among several kinds of companies. From that we can say that this statute is unconstitutional and hurts the liberty of interstate commerce. Tanya Trucker’s suit may have the chance to prevail in the court.

The lab researchers should be asked to sign non-disclosure forms upon their employment to protect them as well as the University. These matters should be taken care of promptly and the University of California looked to for these errors of ethics and business codes. The blame, for whatever it is worth, would lie on the University of California because of its delay of recognizing an error in their way of doing
According to Aaron (2007) in the The Little, Brown Compact Handbook, the word “plagiarism” is derived from a Latin word meaning to kidnap or to abduct (p. 424). Plagiarism is stealing someone else’s work and passing it off as one’s own. In many other cultures, plagiarizing is encouraged because it demonstrates familiarity and respect for the work of noted writers. However, in the United States and at Columbia Southern University, plagiarism is considered fraud and can have serious consequences. Plagiarism usually comes in two forms: intentional and unintentional.
This open-ended format would permit job incumbents to use their own words and ideas to describe the job. Some debatable issues are the format and degree of structure that a questionnaire should have. Job analysts have their own personal preferences on this matter. There really is no best format for a questionnaire. However, there are a few hints that will make the questionnaire easier to use: keep it as short as possible, keep it simple, and test the questionnaire before using it.
