M6D1: Case Problem on The Twin City Bank v. Kenneth Isaacs
No unread replies.No replies.
Read The Twin City Bank v. Kenneth Isaacs’ judgement (Links to an external site.)and respond to the following critical thinking and ethical decision-making questions:
The judge uses North Shore Bank to make analogies with the Isaacses’ case.
Do you think this analogy is effective?
Suppose you are the bank manager who decided to keep a freeze on the Isaacses’ funds for four years. If your actions are guided by the public disclosure test, would you have behaved differently?
Post a thorough response to each question.
Again it is important to realize that this is not a law class per se so don’t be intimidated by reading and analyzing a case.
You are not being held to standards that would apply if this were a law school or paralegal class.
When you analyze a case and its holding you are technically considered to be briefing the case, but you can think of it in terms of just performing an IRAC analysis.
