CARZ BAZAAR Review Case Two: Carz Bazaar Feeling proud of your growing knowledge of business law and your work on the Blue Mood Clothing case, you move on to your next assignment. You open the Carz Bazaar case file to review the facts of the situation. Once you have fully assessed the situation in the Carz Bazaar case, proceed to the next step, where you will gather the information you need to analyze the legal questions of the case. Gather and Analyze Information As you read through the materials, try to begin answering the questions posed below. You will likely encounter many new legal concepts, so take notes about which sections apply to this case so that you can easily refer back to them when you begin to write your analysis. In all legal cases, there are disputes about the facts and the law. In this case, we can assume the facts stated in our case file are accurate, so we just need to decide what law applies and how the law can be interpreted to support the plaintiffs’ and defendant's arguments. The issue of who caused the accident has been settled. Wilson caused the accident, so the issue before us is whether Wilson's employer can be held responsible for his actions. What are the arguments in favor of the plaintiffs      (the accident victims)? What are the arguments in favor of the defendant      (Carz Bazaar)? Read about legal responsibilities of agents and employees to help you answer these questions. In the next step, you'll formalize your thoughts so that they are ready to put into your presentation.

Case 8.1 The Coca-Cola Co. V. The Koke Co. of America.Review the case summary beginning on page 140  of your text and type responses into a MICROSOFT WORD DOCUMENT. Remember to individually number each response. Upload the document into Blackboard. Please do not upload documents in any other format as Blackboard will not recognize them. NOTE: The case summary included in the textbook is heavily condensed. Students should understand that "Coke" was approved for trademark protection as a "suggestive term" because it referred to one of it's principle ingredients. Coca-Cola is suing the Koke Company for trademark infringement due to the similarity of the two names (Koke v. Coke). The Koke is arguing that Coca-Cola's use of Coke should not be protected under trademark law because the beverage no longer contains the ingredient (cocaine) which formed the basis for recognizing the trademark in the first place. Under current law, what must be proven to successfully bring a general claim of trademark infringement? Explain how the Koke company has infringed upon Coca-Cola's trademark (i.e., apply the facts to the law identified in your response to question 1, above)   How does a claim for trademark dilution differ from a claim for trademark infringement?

Facts Situation Lightning Parcel Service ("Lightning") is based in the Oklahoma City regional area. Lightning focuses its efforts on delivering products to home consumers and small businesses. Lightning has a need to hire drivers for its delivery trucks. In an effort to reduce costs, Lightning recently adopted an independent contractor model. Under this model, rather than hiring drivers as employees, Lightning will contract with drivers as independent contractors. The independent contractors will be in business for themselves. Lightning has developed a lengthy contract that it asks drivers to sign. The contract contains the following clauses. The contract contains the express sentence: "Driver acknowledges that he or she is an independent contractor and not an employee." Lightning requires that the drivers go through the standard Lightning training program before being allowed to deliver packages. The drivers are not, however, paid for their time while going through the training program. The drivers must use Lightning uniforms but must purchase the uniforms themselves. Lightning permits the drivers to purchase their own delivery trucks. If a driver chooses not to furnish his own vehicle, Lightning will rent the driver a truck at a fixed weekly rate. In any event, Lightning requires that the trucks be painted using Lightning colors and logos. Lightning provides the routes that the drivers should drive each day. Lightning does not oversee the drivers to determine whether they drove the suggested route. Lightning drivers are free to hire someone else to drive their routes as long as the substitute driver maintains the same route. Drivers must check in with Lightning periodically throughout the day to see if Lightning has any additional deliveries to make. Lightning allows the drivers to use the trucks on their days off for personal deliveries, as long as the driver covers up the Lightning logo. Lightning drivers may sell their routes to other drivers. Complication Lightning hires a new general counsel (the top legal officer), Roseanne Park. Shortly after beginning work, Park becomes aware of the independent contractor model. Because the Department of Labor announced a misclassification initiative, Park is concerned about potential violations of the federal wage and hour laws. She is not sure about worker classification issues, but has heard that you did very well in your employment class. Question You should answer this overall question: Under the facts as given, are the Lightning drivers employees or independent contractors? Using the economic realities test, determine whether or not the workers are employees or independent contractors. Your answer will require you to explain why the economic realities test is proper under the circumstances. In your answer, list the elements of the test, analyze the facts in light of the elements, and draw a conclusion. You should evaluate both sides of the question, explaining both arguments and counter-arguments.
