For this last assignment, you may work with ONE other person as your partner. Contact that person ASAP. Do not assume that you will work with the same person as you have in the past; they may not be making that same assumption. Please include both names on the assignment. Working with someone else is NOT a requirement, however.

Our last module discusses contracts as well as torts. For this assignment you should choose one tort lawsuit from the list in this article.Links to an external site. These are very large, well known cases. You will be able to find much more detail through basic research.

Create a presentation outlining the cause of action $($the tort they are suing about.$)$ Focus only on the tort claim, give the actual name of the tort $($ie negligence; misrepresentation etc$).$ The presentation should include: a description of the parties; the jurisdiction; the name and description of the tort; describe the elements of the tort; the legal defenses to that type of tort $($I do not need the factual defenses, although you may include the factual defenses, you MUST include the legal defenses$)$; and the outcome, if it has been resolved.

The presentation should be narrated and recorded. You may use different platforms, but a straightforward approach would be a recorded, narrated PowerPoint. It should have at least $7$ slides with headings for each of the sections mentioned above.

THEN create a written contract that could have helped avoid or limit litigation and the damages the company was required to pay out. The contract should include a: forum selection clause; choice of law clause; arbitration clause; and class action waiver clause. You should include any additional clauses that you think would have resulted in a better outcome for the Company. Remember for this exercise you represent the Company not the injured party. In the contract be sure to mention the essential elements of a contract, namely that there is an agreement, name the consideration $($something of legal value by both parties$)$ the parties have the legal capacity to enter the contract and that the contract is not against public policy. Review this article for a good understanding as to why contracts like this are important.Links to an external site.

Turn in both the PowerPoint and the Contract $($Word format, please$)$ no later than THE DUE DATE.

I expect that you will find forms for some elements, especially for the contract. Citations MUST be included. Failure to include citations is plagiarism and is subject to reporting for academic misconduct.
