LEB 320F Cases Exam Questions and
Answers
Podias v. Mairs (2007) - Answer-Case about relationship between law and ethics

Mairs hit Podias with his car eventually leading to his death, Swanson and Newell were
in the car at the time of the accident and none of them helped Podias after the car hit
him.

Mairs was found liable and it was a question of whether the liability extended to
Swanson and Newell. They motioned for summary judgement for their innocence and it
was granted.

Podias appealed.

The higher appellate court reversed and remanded (sent back to the lower court for
further proceedings) because the burden on the defendants was far outweighed by the
potential benefit to the deceased motorcyclist.

Bristol-Myers Squibb Co. v. Superior Court (2017) - Answer-Case about personal
jurisdiction

Tons of plaintiffs (most aren't California residents) filed a case in California against BMS
(incorporated in Delaware, HQ in New York, more than half of employees in NY or NJ)
with claims that their drug, Plavix, caused injuries.

California Supreme Court ruled that the plaintiffs could use specific personal jurisdiction
over BMS.

BMS appealed and the ruling was reversed. The plaintiffs lacked both general and
specific personal jurisdiction over BMS.

Wal-Mart Stores, Inc. v. Cockrell (2001) - Answer-Case about false imprisonment

Cockrell was accused of shoplifting and taken to manager's office. They made him strip
and even take off a bandage that was covering a surgical wound. Nothing was found
and he then sued for false imprisonment.

Cockrell won the case because the court found that the detention amounted to a false
imprisonment.

Wal-Mart appealed.
