In Valley Medical Specialists v. Faber, 194 Ariz. 363, 982 P.2d 1277 (1999), the court held that the covenant between Plaintiff Valley Medical Specialists and Defendant Faber would not be enforceable. Valley Medical Specialists employed Dr. Faber as an internist and pulmonologist in 1985 to treated HIV-positive patients. This therapy known as Brachytherapy could only be treated at certain facilities as not all facilities obtained the necessary equipment to do so. When Dr. Faber ended his employment with Valley Medical Specialists, he signed a covenant. The covenant prevented Dr. Faber from accepting employment in a competing facility in a five-mile radius.…
The crux of this case hinges on the construction of the provision of the HCGPP that, between 2007 and the spring of 2013, provided: A Police Services Supervisor I who is called in to work hours which are not contiguous to their regular shift shall receive a minimum of 4 hours pay at the overtime rate. The HCGPP is promulgated and revised by the Personnel Officer and enacted upon a vote of the County Council pursuant to Article VII, § 706 of the Howard County Charter. Although the HCGPP is a hybrid between a local government ordinance and an administrative regulation, “[w]hen we construe an agency’s rule or regulation, ‘the principles governing our interpretation of a statute apply.’” Hranicka v. Chesapeake Surgical, Ltd., 443 Md. 289, 298 (2015) (quoting Christopher, supra, 381 Md. at 209). Accordingly, as we set out to construe the HCGPP, our analysis begins by…

While studying the case R. v Hauser, it is clear to see why it is known to be one of the leading constitutional decisions in understanding the workings of Peace, order and good governments in relation to a power struggle of jurisdiction. The whole case surrounds the question on whether the Attorney General, or the Attorney General of Canada should have the power to control the prosecution under the Federal Narcotics Control Act. It is a battle for powers of jurisdiction in regards to the criminal code, and more so the Narcotics Control Act; (NCA), 1961. The Narcotics Act was once Canada’s national drug control statue prior to its repeal in 1996 where the Controlled Drugs and Substance Act took its place. The NCA upheld an international treaty which prohibited the production, and supply of specific drugs; normally narcotics, unless given a licence for specific…

The 1980 court case, Armstrong V. Kline, drew from parents of children with exceptionalities becoming upset with the education system’s 180-day school year rule1. Beginning in January of 1980, they decided that enough was enough and they needed to do something before summer vacation came so, their child/children would not lose everything they learned during the school year1. The parents took on the court case, filing three class action lawsuits, all of which were against Caryl Kline, the secretary of education and chief official of the Department of Education1. The result of this particular case relieved me but, the fact it had to become a court case, I found to be absolutely ridiculous. Also, the terminology they used while describing the…
Every individual in an independent state or democratic practising state has the right to know and be assured that his/her medical reports/records are not going to be released to just anybody. Numerous examples and situations where HIPAA act of 1996 has been violated shows, exactly, what can happen when people’s personal information gets into the hands of a third party in an unauthorized manner. That is exactly one of the reasons medical institutions demands for official letter of recommendation from students who claims to be taking research or projects on a topic that might require that one or two patients’ medical reports be open to them, this is as a result of the fact that no one would love to walk on the street one day and be ridiculed or laughed at because of ailment that was supposed to remain unknown to anyone except the medical professional who diagnosed such patient and the patient. Also, apart from the traumatic effect that it might cause on the individual or the shame of being shamed by the public, organizations who fail to make a patient’s medical records confidential might suffer being sued and lost of public-trust once the issue becomes…
