Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to assess whether a violation of employment law under Title VII has occurred using a study conducted at Case University, where 90 percent of the students are African American. The researcher argues that in both cases violations of Title VII of the Civil Rights Act occurred. Specifically, evidence of disparate impact and favoritism and nepotism are demonstrated in the two cases. Court decisions including those of the Supreme Court are noted supporting this argument.

From the Paper
"Case University, which opened in 1870, claims its early mission included providing newly freed slaves the opportunity to receive a proper education. The University's purpose also includes training African Americans in various professions to promote career advancement. The researcher asserts that the university violated Title VII when it failed to hire candidate Smith as the professor of biology. While there are circumstances when an entity can exclude a candidate for a job, they must be based on sound logic and backed by standards established by the law. For example, when hiring an attendant for a restroom to sit in the restroom and provide customers with hand towels, acceptable practice does allow the business entity to hire women only to manage the female restrooms and males only for oversight of male restrooms."

Abstract
This paper explores the legal proceedings in the important case of "J.A. Pye vs. Graham" (2002) in the context of the question: Is the issue of landownership relative? The legal doctrine of adverse possession, the author points out, is an old and fitting concept of English property law, recognizable by layman and lawyer, that recently was revised and codified under English law in the Land Registration Act. After reviewing the relative cases and the proceedings through three courts, the paper agrees with the later two courts that ruled the granting of Pye's land to Graham is unjustified. This case then led to the rewriting of the Land Registration Act 2002 .

From the Paper
"Despite the fact that the House of Lords agreed that the Grahams had acted in good faith, nevertheless, throughout their judgment in Pye v Graham, the Lordships affirmed the unfair result of their opinion. While conceding that the Grahams did nothing illegal in the case at bar, they had only maintained possession of the disputed land and was willing to pay for the grazing rights if requested to do so. However, Pye sat on their rights and allowed the adverse possession statute of 12 years to toll (lapse) thus allowing the Grahams to enjoyed the actual ownership rights of the land without payment for this entire dozen years."

Abstract
Thepaper examines the case of "R(Haw) v. Secretary of State for the Home Department", that deals with Brian Haw, who had been conducting demonstrations using large placards in Parliament Square since 2001. The paper relates that Haw's demonstrations were concerning sanctions against Iraq and the British Government's policy in Iraq. The paper discusses how the Westminster City Council sought an injunction against Haw in 2002 to move his placards because of highway obstruction, but the paper relates that the court denied the injunction indicating there was no highway obstruction and that Haw's demonstrations were lawful.

Abstract
This paper is devoted to the dilemma of clarifying the ethical, legal, and public relations matters pertaining to toxic, production waste dumping. It is written from the perspective of the Vice President of Production and de facto head of the company seeking to dispose of the waste. The paper considers the potential legal liability of the company regarding toxic substances, the substance?s effects on the local environment and health of the local population, and any breaches of ethics committed by the parties involved.

From the Paper
"Firstly, the company is responsible for keeping abreast of all legal aspects of dumping. This includes but is not limited to which wastes can be contained in holding ponds, as dictated by the current laws of the state and nation. The holding pond must be in line with regulations regarding the disposal of the particular wastes involved. In the current scenario, it is at least gratifying that the Vice President of the company attempted to make sure that the environmental consultant for the company agreed that the dumping would be in compliance with all of the legal strictures regarding the disposal of waste materials."

Abstract
This paper is a case study, which looks at an abusive young private, who habitually has acted violently towards his common-law spouse after returning home from deployment. The author describes the situation, provides a tentative "best alternative to a negotiated agreement" (BATNA) and concludes by briefly detailing where the situation appears headed.

From the Paper
"The Best Alternative to a Negotiated Settlement (BATNA) would seem to be one wherein Jim agrees to attend counseling sessions for his Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder while Ruth is enrolled in classes designed to help her with her drinking problem. As for the children, the parents should have alternating days where one of them is expected to "take the lead" in the household management; in the past, both parties agreed that this approach would keep each active in the rearing of their children while allowing each a respite of sorts from the burden of parenting."

From the Paper
"Recently, the Fortune Magazine published a list of the most admired companies due to their high level of accountability and responsibility. Among those companies was a British mobile telecommunication giant known as Vodafone Group plc. This paper will focus on the efforts that Vodafone has made to conserve the environment and its future environmental sustainability strategies. The paper will first analyse the Vodafone's environmental policy before looking at its principles of environmental management.
Vodafone Group plc
Vodafone plc is a multinational telecommunications company. It is headquartered in London, United Kingdom and operates in more than 30 countries. It also has partner networks in more than 35 other countries. It is the largest mobile communication in the world in terms of annual revenue and second in terms of subscriber base (Shah, 2010). It is the fourth largest company on the London stock exchange and has a secondary listing in the New York NASDAQ. It is also in the top ten lists of Fortune Magazine's most accountable companies. Vodafone is not only a leader in the Telecommunications and ICT sector, but also leads in corporate environmental sustainability.

Abstract
The paper describes a case study of a 19 year old male, Daniel, who suffered from mild depression and was treated by a medical herbalist. The paper relates that after six months of treatment, Daniel committed suicide, and the parents face the decision of whether to sue the doctor for negligence and unprofessional behaviour. The paper discusses the four principles of medical ethics that include respect for autonomy, beneficence, non-maleficence, and justice, and also outlines the perspectives of utilitarianism and deontology. The paper applies these principles and frameworks to Daniel's case and explains why beneficence and maleficence are more important than respect for autonomy. The paper also shows how deontology has been followed here, but a utilitarian approach would have been better suited. The paper comes to the conclusion that in this case, it is difficult to say whether it is truly ethical for the parents to sue when they played a significant part in the outcome of their son's treatment.

From the Paper
"Daniel was a 19 year old male suffering from mild depression. His family was well aware of the situation, and had obtained various opinions about what is needed to help him. Daniel did not react very well to medical anti-depressants. On the physical level, they made him nervous and restless. On the emotional level, he resisted the meds for fear of becoming dependent upon them. Despite his depression, Daniel had never felt the need to succumb to substance abuse, and indeed feared this, as he had considerable experience with a friend who nearly died as a result of substance abuse. The medical herbalist, Mr. Mudra, seemed to have the solution. After about a month of his treatments, Daniel's general mood and emotions appeared to improve somewhat. After about five months of the treatment, however, he began to fall into depression again. Despite the parents' attempt to find a psychotherapist who would see Daniel, the boy refused any such help and insisted that Mr. Mudra was helping him. After only one more month, Daniel had committed suicide. The parents now face the decision of whether to sue the doctor for negligence and unprofessional behaviour."

Abstract
The paper discusses how the case study "Fred Cummings - Physical Contact - Threatening of Management Personnel" represents an interesting subject for grievance analysis as it relates to an incident that occurred outside of the workplace and work hours and, as such, is not obviously connected to the collective agreement. With respect to this case which has been brought forward for arbitration, this paper explores the definition of the issue brought to arbitration, the facts in the case, and the position of each of the parties with reference to current scholarship on industrial relations. It is argued that, on balance and in the context of Canadian law, an arbitrator will likely rule in favour of the Company in this grievance.
