Hickman v. Taylor: Facts, Issue, Reasoning And Decision
[ send me this paper ]
3 pages in length. Hickman v. Taylor set a precedent for protecting more than simply what was covered by attorney-client privilege, inasmuch as other considerations of conclusions, legal theories, opinions and mental impressions lacked any type of privilege protection. The extent to which one attorney's attempt to ascertain another attorney's case notes served to instigate Hickman v. Taylor is both grand and far-reaching; that this case reached the United States Supreme Court where it was determined that such an attempt "falls outside the arena of discovery and contravenes the public policy underlying the orderly prosecution and defense of legal claims" speaks to what "work product of the lawyer" is designed to protect.

Hobbes +Social Contract +Locke.
[ send me this paper ]
(7pp) The fundamental basis for government and law in this system is the concept of the social contract, according to which human beings begin as individuals in a state of nature, and create a society by establishing a contract whereby they agree to live together in harmony for their mutual benefit, after which they are said to live in a state of society. This contract involves the retaining of certain natural rights, an acceptance of restrictions of certain liberties, the assumption of certain duties, and the pooling of certain powers to be exercised collectively. So the use of a social contract is a give and take negotiation -usually. Bibliography lists 4 sources. BBsoccon.doc

Hopkins V. Price Waterhouse
[ send me this paper ]
3 pages in length. The foundation of this case is in the fundamental understanding of and appreciation for the detrimental impact sexual discrimination has upon a woman's ability to secure earned promotion within a company that determines advancement based upon much more than one's talent. Hopkins was initially refused partnership at Price Waterhouse not for lack of aptitude for the position but rather because she was deemed 'too masculine' for what they believed a woman should project within the company's environment. While half of the decision makers - the majority not surprisingly being men - heralded her tremendous talent for landing key contracts, they could not get past the stereotypical perception of how a female partner should be physically represented in the firm. As such, she was recommended to walk, talk and look more feminine so that when she would be brought back for reconsideration the following year, her chances of making partner would be much better; a year later when she was not reconsidered for partnership, Hopkins sued Price Waterhouse citing violation of Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964.
