The Relevance of Business Environment

The case analysis should consist of the following three headings:

1. Overview/Summary

2. Opinion/Legal Analysis

3. Relevance to Business Environment

Find a recent lawsuit (something with sports if possible), legal news story, or article using an Internet or DUO library search

centering on a breach of contract case. News-feed websites such as MSN or CNN, or

search engines such as Yahoo or Google may be useful. Major publications such as the

New York Times, Wall Street Journal, etc are available through the Davenport library.

You may also use your hometown newspaper websites as a resource. To complete the

case analysis, you should research the assigned topic to provide a measure of

information about the topic’s significance to the current business environment.

The Overview/Summary section should thoroughly address the facts and background

of your chosen case or legal dispute and the legal issue (or law) in question.

The Opinion/Legal Analysis section should demonstrate your critical thinking and

analysis of the subject matter as it relates to the legal principles and concepts covered

in the textbook. You should provide a thorough explanation and discussion of the legal principles as they apply to the issue in question.

The Relevance to Business Environment section should discuss the topic’s

application to the current business climate and offer an insight-building summary,

recommendations, findings and conclusions. Feel free to draw on your own professional

experience as well.

Additionally, please address the following questions for the breach of contract case discussed above:

· Discuss which legal remedies that might be available in this case and why they are applicable here.

· Discuss whether there are any equitable remedies available in this case and why they are applicable here.

The assignment should be presented in APA format and be a minimum of 500 words (2

pages or more), pages to be double-spaced, typed in 12-point font. The point allocation

and grading parameters are outlined in the grading rubric for this activity.
