Explain the elements of a valid contract,and identify which contract elements,if any,exist between The Friendly Dawg and landlord Lou.

Project Three

File Attached below.Below is the scenario stated in the rubric.

Scenario

The Friendly Dawg is a retail pet supply store owned by Dave Dawgs. Dave has worked in the store since high school and took over running the store after his father died two years ago. Originally the store sold only pet food and supplies, such as animal food, bird cages, water bowls, pet beds, and so forth. Upon taking ownership, Dave added fish tanks with fish for sale. Recently he built a kennel and cages in a former storage area in the rear of the store in order to sell live animals, such as snakes, birds, dogs, and cats. Landlord Lou came by during renovations and asked what was going on. One of Dave’s employees told Lou that The Friendly Dawg was expanding its inventory and needed the space. Landlord Lou told the employee, “Very exciting! Good luck!”

A few weeks later, landlord Lou began receiving complaints from the neighboring tenant, the Sunshine Yoga studio, that the noise from the dogs and parrots was very disruptive.

The signed lease between Dave Dawg’s deceased father and Lou describes the business as a pet supply store only and does not mention selling live animals. The lease specifies a rent in the amount of $500 a month. Sunshine Yoga does not have a written lease. The owner of Sunshine Yoga, Jasmine, met Lou one night in a bar two years ago where he verbally offered to rent her the space for $300 a month. Jasmine claims that landlord Lou told her that night that she could rent from him forever and that he would never evict her.

Lou called Dave, asking him to quiet the animals. Dave said he would try, but the complaints from Jasmine continued. Dave also demanded that Lou improve the air-conditioning system, claiming it was too hot in the rear of the store for his animals and it was causing them to become agitated. Landlord Lou refused, claiming that air-conditioning was not meant to cool that area and it was not his job as landlord to take care of live animals.

Dave stopped paying his rent, claiming that he was not obligated to do so because Lou was breaching his obligation under the lease to maintain the property in good repair. The next day, a dangerous snake escaped through the air vents and slithered into the neighboring yoga studio, frightening Jasmine, the owner, such that she had a heart attack.

After recovering, Jasmine stopped paying her rent, claiming that the premises were unsafe due to the presence of wild animals. She also claimed that she has been very depressed and anxious as a result of the ongoing situation. And she contends that she has lost clients because of the noise coming from The Friendly Dawg.

The Friendly Dawg has been a good tenant, enjoys a strong customer base, and pays more in rent than Sunshine Yoga. Sunshine Yoga has always been late with rent, and Jasmine constantly bothers Lou over minor issues.

Compliance Risk Assessment

Essay: Start up Compliance Risk Assessment

It has been a bad year for HAILO, a start-up ride-sharing company based in New York. Although the company launched its services to much acclaim, HAILO has been plagued with problems from the start. Their smartphone app did not appropriately secure customer information and over 1,000 users had their credit card details stolen. Several of their drivers have been operating their vehicles without a driver’s license and there are ever increasing incidents of cars breaking down, some leading to significant passenger injuries. Complaints to the New York Attorney General about HAILO’s practices and lax standards keep mounting and there is talk about possible criminal charges being brought against the company, its CEO and Board of Directors. HAILO is now considered too risky to use. The CEO knows that he must resuscitate the company’s reputation and re-build customer trust. On the advice of his General Counsel, the CEO decides to hire you as HAILO’s first Compliance Officer.

Cybersecurity Brochure

Prior to beginning work on this interactive assignment, please read all of the required resources for this week.

For this assignment, you will take on the role of a city administrator tasked with educating the community about cyber crime. You must select one issue related to security and protection in cyber crime, and develop a three-column brochure to inform the general public about your selected issue. Since your brochure is an educational piece for the community, it must contain language that is clear, concise and easy to understand for a non-technical reader. (Use the CRJ631 Cybersecurity Brochure template)

The following elements must be included in your brochure.

Column 1: Explain the basic legal rights of businesses or individuals who are affected by your chosen cybercrime issue.

Column 2: Explain at least two techniques people within your city can use to protect their businesses and/or themselves from cyber crime.

Column 3: Provide a list of resources (including a brief description and contact information) that would provide businesses or individuals in your city with additional information on detection and/or prevention of the chosen issue.

Once you have completed entering the required information into the brochure template, save the template, attach it to your initial post, and submit it to the forum.

Does section 121 of the Constitution Act 1867 prohibit the restrictions found in section 123 (a) of The Quebec Film Control Act?

The interplay of sections 92(13) and 121 of the Constitution Act, 1867 and interprovincial trade.

Write an essay based upon the foregoing fact scenario that determines whether the Quebec government has the power under section 92(13) to restrict its residents from possessing large caches of movies not purchased from the Quebec Film Corporation—for example, films purchased from other provinces.

In other words, does section 121 of the Constitution Act, 1867 guarantee free trade across provincial borders for films? Does section 121 of the Constitution Act 1867 prohibit the restrictions found in section 123 (a) of The Quebec Film Control Act?

Remember to confine your main argument to the interplay of sections 92(13) and 121 of the Constitution Act, 1867. Also remember to fully justify your essay within the terms of the relevant Constitutional case law.

What are the parties fighting about and what are they asking the court to decide?

The IRAC Method of Briefing a Legal Case

Johnson Bank v. George Korbaken Company, LLP

Write a brief summary of the facts as the court determined. Eliminate facts that are not relevant to the
court’s analysis. For example, a business’s street address is probably not relevant to the court’s decision of the issue of whether the business that sold a defective product is liable for the resulting injuries to the plaintiff. However, suppose a customer who was assaulted as she left a store is suing the business. The customer claims that her injuries were the reasonably foreseeable result of the business’s failure to provide security patrols. If the business is located in an upscale neighborhood, then perhaps it could argue that its failure to provide security patrols is reasonable. If the business is located in a crime ridden area, then perhaps the customer is right. Instead of including the street address in the case brief, you may want to simply describe the type of neighborhood in which it is located. (Note: The time of day would be another relevant factor, among others, in this case).

What is the question presented to the court? Usually, only one issue will be discussed, but sometimes
there will be more. What are the parties fighting about and what are they asking the court to decide? For example, in the case of the assaulted customer, the issue for a trial court to decide might be whether the business had a duty to the customer to provide security patrols.

The answer to the question will ultimately determine whether the business is liable for negligently failing to provide security patrols. Whether the defendant owed plaintiff a duty of care, and what that duty of care is, are key issues in negligence claims.
