During this time, the defendant did not review bank records and statements that were sent to him. Even when the defendant had realized that his clients had not received their settlement funds or the discovery of inconsistency in his account, he did not remove Taradash access to the account or retrieved the signature stamp from him. The Appellate Court found the defendant to be guilty of professional misconduct in aiding a non-lawyer in the unauthorized practice of law and ordered the defendant to be suspended from the practice of law for three years. In the case of our client, Attorney James Johnson, he did not give authorization to his paralegal to access his bank accounts to misappropriate client’s funds. The client never reported missing funds from the closing, and Mr. Johnson did not allow his paralegal, Susan, to perform interviews without his permission. Susan did not conduct the interview using her signature, instead, all the closing documents were sent to Mr. Johnson, which he signed himself. Susan only made sure all the documents were signed, and all the accounts were

I think that Parks should be criminally charged, even though he did not directly run the warehouse, because he was aware of the situation and failed to take ethical actions. John Parks was the CEO of the company, therefore making him liable for the illegal practices of the company, so yes, he should be convicted. By being the CEO, he is taking charge of the company and all of its problems. The court found him guilty, because he was in a position to correct and prevent this

Throughout the case, it can be analyzed and expected to say that Deloitte & Touche have committed a breach to its fiduciary duty to Vertical Pharmaceutical at the end. Vertical Pharmaceuticals Inc., realized a huge loss as a result by Deloitte & Touche. Therefore, this shows that Deloitte & Touche did indeed breach their fiduciary duties. All the falsified reports and malpractices that were said to be revealed by Deloitte & Touche would be said to not be real by the forensic audit that was conducted. At the end, the court can rule that Deloitte & Touche did indeed breach their fiduciary duty to Vertical Pharmaceuticals.

Wonderful, short, summary of the views applicable to this case, and the defense for the view that you hold most. However, I believe that there is more to the Christian-principle based view of ethics, than what you give credit for. According to Arthur F. Holmes’ book, Ethics: Approaching Moral Decisions, one would find that the Christian view holds four tenants, or ideas, to shape the understanding of ethics, in which these views are: cases, area rules (moral rules), principles, bases (theological and philosophical). Thereby, one must go through these four sets of criteria to figure out if an action is right or if it is wrong. Following this line of logic, and if one were to look in the Bible for the answers, one would find torture is not right.

Therefore, Market West accepted the corporation stock as partial debt. Hooper and Yoder agreed to add Brian Bradley who worked for Market West as the third director. Hooper colluded with Bradley and violated a fiduciary duty to Yoder by issuing 95 shares of stock to himself, 5 shares to Bradley, and none to Yoder. Furthermore, Hooper got paid $141,000 salary from the business without Yoder knowing. More importantly, Hooper and Bradly voted to force Yoder to leave the corporation. After Yoder found out that Hooper broke their agreement, violated Yoder’s rights and duties, acted dishonestly, and made unethical decisions, Yoder sued Hooper and Beautiful Daydreams in the District Court. Under the common law, with these facts, the court supported Yoder and ordered Hooper to give back one-half of the salary plus one-half of the shares of stock to Yoder.

Jean McGuire works as a salesperson of land property in Sunrise Land Developers. Jean’s superior Wright Boazman, the sales director, described the importance and efficiency of using “deal-closing techniques”. This technique is usually used to motivate the prospect into buying the lot, because often people really want to buy a lot but hesitate at the last few minutes of signing agreements. Wright introduced the most effective closing technology termed “the other party” to salespersons in the company. As Wright explained it, when a salesperson has a prospect actually want to buy a lot, but the prospect was too slow to buy it, the salesperson’s job at the moment was to push the prospect to make purchase decision as soon as possible. The method was that the salesperson would let the prospect know a number of other salespeople were showing the lot at the same time, the lot have attracted plenty of potential customers to come visit, and it might be already sold. Of cause, the salesperson was a liar, and the process of ensuring the prospect to believe was all false play. Jean did not want to cheat her prospects, as a result, her sales performance was far behind her colleagues who used the “deal-closing techniques”. The situation is made more serious by her austere life pressure if Jean does not follow Wright’s hypocritical technology. This essay states a clear analysis of ethical dilemma that Jean is facing and two ethical theories: Kant’s
