Annette, an energetic college junior, had been involved in the selling of goods for a number of years online. Annette supported

herself in this way but yearned for greater success. She was particularly interested in selling women's dresses. She studied the clothing lines of famous designers Giorgio Armani and Bill Blass. Annette then contacted a clothing manufacturer who agreed to copy the styles under the names of Armani and Blass. Annette began to sell the copied clothing articles under the names "Gorgo Ormani" and "Bill Bless." The names, however, were not clearly printed on the labels but written in a handwritten scrawl making it difficult to discern the actual spelling. The matter has been brought to the attention of the FTC. Is Annette in violation of the law?
a. Yes, you cannot list and sell designer dresses online.b. No, Annette can sell any dress that she wants.c. Yes, deceptively passing one's goods off as designed by someone else is wrong.d. No, the consumer would know that the dress was not an original.

Answer:.c. Yes, deceptively passing one's goods off as designed by someone else is wrong

Explanation:This is like plagiarism or illegally coping of one's own music, anything that has to do with copying someone else work is illegal be wise you are taking someone else's work and jeopardizing its value when you make it a copy.

People will think these copies are original Gorgo Ormani and because it is likely that Annette will make them cheaper they will buy more of these fake items instead of buying the original hence she will also be negatively affecting the market for this brand.

You can't copy something that isn't yours because you don't have that right hence this is deceptive action and legally wrong.

lakkis [162]

Answer:

<u>Yes, because Boat Builders, LLC failed to exercise a reasonable standard of care at their premises.</u>

Explanation:

<em>Remember, </em>we are told, "Jake... invited them back to the Boat Builders premises," meaning they (Boat Bilders, LLC) had a duty of care responsibility toward all of his employees present.

Note we are told, "Mark made light of it but gave Jake a menacing look so Jake dropped it," this was a moment that shows Jake's negligence because as the owner of Boat Builders he had a duty of care to ensure no one is hurt without their own fault within their premises (which included their "parking lot").
