An attorney is the managing partner at a small law firm. The attorney believes that technology will be increasingly important in

the delivery of affordable legal services and hires a nonlawyer to manage the law office's technology services. This person is given the title of Chief Technology Strategist. The Chief Technology Strategist does not participate in any decisions involving legal judgment. The firm pays the Chief Technology Strategist a fixed salary that is larger than the salaries of some of the associate lawyers and larger than the salaries of all of the other nonlawyer staff. The Chief Technology Strategist is included as a participant in the firm's year-end profit-sharing plan along with the lawyers and other nonlegal staff who work at the firm.
Is the attorney subject to discipline?

(A) Yes, because legal fees are used to fund the year-end profit-sharing plan.

(B) Yes, because the Chief Technology Strategist makes more money than some of the lawyers in the law firm.

(C) No, because the Chief Technology Strategist may be included in the firm's year-end profit sharing arrangement.

(D) No, because the attorney reasonably believes that the year-end profit sharing plan is necessary in order to attract top talent and deliver competent services to clients.

Answer:

No the attorney is not subject to discipline because D) No, because the attorney reasonably believes that the year-end profit sharing plan is necessary in order to attract top talent and deliver competent services to clients.

Explanation:

Without having the best and the brightest there will be no profit to share at the end of the year. So the profit should be shared among all those that contributed no matter how little it is for the success of the cases. And also the profit being shared will serve as a motivation for the strategist to continue giving his best to the firm.

An applicant for a position with a federal facility can be disqualified for _____.
ch4aika [34]
It could really be all of them. Federal Related jobs can be classified to the public eye and things like drug use and felony’s won’t get the job. Based on all of your possible answers, I am pretty sure it would be C. Felony’s are worse than misdemeanors as a Felony is a serious crime you can commit. Obviously all the other options would play a factor in getting the job. Probably should be a all answer but your best choice, is C. Good luck.

Ne4ueva [31]

Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:

Ozzy recently started working at a new company. He has been solicited several times to join the union of the company, but he would prefer not to. The union officials tell Ozzy that he won’t be allowed to keep working unless he joins the union. Which of the following is true?

-The union officials are pretending they have a closed shop and can't influence Ozzy's decision.  

-The union can't make Ozzy join the union, but it can require him to pay union dues.  

-Ozzy must now join the union because union shops are always legal.  

-Ozzy's requirement to join the union depends on his state of employment.

Answer:

-The union can't make Ozzy join the union, but it can require him to pay union dues.  

Explanation:

There is a law called the National Labor Relations Act that states that no employee should be required to be part of the union and that membership in the union should not be placed as a requirement for the occupation of a particular labor function. However, some states and some companies may adopt different approaches to their employees and the union.

 In some states in the country, although an employee is not required to become a member of a union, they allow an obligation for all employees to be required to pay at least part of the union's dues. In this case, we can say that in relation to the case shown in the question above, the union can't make Ozzy join the union, but it can require him to pay union dues.
