Write a memo for the following below;

You are a paralegal working for a small law firm, and I am your supervising attorney, so the memo must be directed to me. We recently interviewed a potential client, Andrew R. Burgundy (hereinafter Mr. Burgundy), who was injured when he slipped and fell on ice and snow in the parking lot of a local store, FastStop Market, Inc. (hereinafter FastStop.) It had been snowing all day when Mr. Burgundy went to the store. The snow had stopped falling, and the parking lot had ice and snow. FastStop hired a contractor, Smart Plows, Inc., to plow the lot, but it had not finished doing so when Mr. Burgundy fell on ice and/or snow in the parking lot.

Please research and write a memo analyzing the likelihood that Mr. Burgundy will win a negligence lawsuit against FastStop for the injuries he sustained. In your memo, you must compare Mr. Burgundy's case to other Delaware slip-and-fall cases involving ice and/or snow and discuss the strengths and weaknesses of Mr. Burgundy's case. You must apply the rule of law that you find to Mr. Burgundy's case and analyze whether or not he will be able to meet the requirements of the rule. To do this, you must compare and contrast Mr. Burgundy's case with the other cases you find. The defendant, FastStop, argues that it did not breach its duty to Mr. Burgundy because the storm continued most of the day, and only an hour or two had passed since the storm stopped. Furthermore, FastStop's contractor was in the process of clearing the ice and snow when Mr. Burgundy fell. DO NOT analyze whether the snow removal contractor is liable - that is not your assignment!

1. FACTS OF THE CASE

Please note that I have deliberately listed the facts in bullet format using fragments, incomplete sentences, and improper grammar. When you write your "Facts" section of the memo, you must pick the relevant facts and write them in a narrative format using correct grammar, punctuation, and writing mechanics.Your statement of the facts must be written in complete sentences and use standard grammatical and writing conventions. DO NOT bullet your facts, or you will receive a zero on that memo section!!!
