The trial court denied the motion and the defendant appealed arguing that there were insufficient contacts to satisfy the due process of law requirements

In 2003 at a private retirement party in Oklahoma City, OK, a state senator approached the homeowner with the intention of purchasing her property. With a modest salary of less then $50,000, this state senator was in a limited position to purchase a $475,000 home situated on prime political real estate given its proximity to the state’s capitol. Fortunately for this senator, he did not have to come up with the funds for the home on his own. Public records indicated that the home was registered to a company run by the senator’s former business partner, Kenneth Wagner, and financed by a bank managed by a former associate of his, Albert Kelly (Eder 2018). This ex-state senator is named Scott Pruitt and his generous friends Wagner and Kelly now hold top aide positions under the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Understanding the connections between Pruitt’s past and present such as this will help explain his arguably questionable actions as head of the EPA.

A paralegal should not sign papers on the name of the lawyer he or she is working. This is potentially a violation of any applicable laws or rules of civil procedure that require a lawyer signature on particular documents. “Under no circumstances should an attorney permit a nonlawyer employee to sign the attorney's name, together with the nonlawyer's initials, to notices of hearing and other pleadings.” (Professional Ethics of the Florida Bar, Opinion 87-11). Under the Rules of Professional Conduct (Chapter 4, Rules Regulating the Florida Bar), an attorney may delegate functions to a nonlawyer employee so long as the attorney supervises and retains responsibility for the work. Rule 4-5.5, Comment. A paralegal can only place the lawyer’s signature electronically with the consent of the lawyer and only after the document has been reviewed by the lawyer. (Professional Ethics of the Florida Bar, Opinion 87-11 (Reconsideration).

Presence or absence of a fixed maturity date: Although fixed maturity dates existed, postponing maturity suggests a lack of intent to require repayment. This factor supports the treatment of the advances as equity because the directors did not intend to request repayment and continually extended the maturity dates, never enforcing them.

My spring internship with Charles L. Levy Law Firm introduced me to the complexities of children protective services (CPS) cases and contractual law. While working with Mr. Levy on CPS cases, I was able to observe over 30 civil cases at the Waco courthouse and help supervise child visits. I developed a more complete understanding of the importance of CPS cases through attending meetings with caseworkers, investigating suspect parents, and visiting children that had been placed in new homes. Mr. Levy also gave me the opportunity to collaborate on various insurance cases that exposed me to legal materials, such as depositions, that are common in many legal practices. Although tedious at times, helping Mr. Levy with insurance cases was interesting

Jacquelyn Young hired the law firm of Becker & Poliakoff to represent her in her federal employment discrimination lawsuit against her employer. The firm associate that filed the action made a mistake by attaching the wrong U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) right-to-sue letter. The court dismissed the claims.

Thirteen months later, the law firm informed Young that the claims had been dismissed, and that the firm was withdrawing from representing her further with the case.
