You would have to be a fool to say what you really think in the workplace. Increasingly, people believe that they cannot make a difference. Today, the medical industry has been transformed

Lawsuits can come from out of the blue. One day life is good, and the next, someone is taking you to court. This statement sounds like an exaggeration only because no particular lawsuit case is presented here to back it up. However, few people get themselves sued intentionally.

We've all heard the story about the woman who spilled scalding hot coffee on herself and then successfully sued McDonald's.

Christopher Roller is God and therefore he has godly powers, or so he thinks. In June of 2005, Christopher Roller, a resident of Minnesota, sued two magicians (David Blaine and David Copperfield) for defying the laws of physics and using Godly powers. He claims that he is God and so, therefore, they are stealing his powers. He demanded that the magicians show their secret tricks to him and give him 10% of their total income for life.

Introduction A company in itself is an entity. It can operate independently but only through individuals who serve as agents of the company. This individual, the director, has been described by legal scholars as one of the most visible and important persons within the company because he/she serves as the face of the company. With this much responsibility to the company in one person’s hands, the legal powers available to directors have come to question. In the first reported case of its kind, Lord
