Case Study: This week, we are discussing Chapter 9 - Business Torts. In the lecture slides I discuss a very famous case not mentioned in the book - Pennzoil Co. v. Texaco, Inc., 481 U.S. 1 (U.S. 1987).

An interesting article can be found about it here:

Your discussion board assignment this week is to find a unique (meaning not found in the book, or by another student) case or news article that touches on a business-related tort lawsuit.

After you find the case, then please:

Question 1 -summarize it for the discussion board giving the details of the case and its outcome, if known;

Question 2 - identify the tort, and discuss its elements (you may have to do some additional research), at issue in your case/article; and

Question 3 - discuss if you think the plaintiff or defendant should prevail based on your reading and what you have learned in the course.
