Case Overview:
The client in this scenario is John “Johnny” Johnson, a mechanic working at Infiniti of
Parkland. He is currently represented by a law firm of Dewey, Cheatem & Howe, LLP. Based on
this type of civil law case, the client or plaintiff can also be referred to as the claimant because he
institutes a claim against the defendant. This client is chosen based on the facts arising from the
case scenario; for example, the defendant’s decision to ineffectively label the tire potentially
caused the explosion. Also, the plaintiff’s employer assumed that because it was a commonality
to install smaller tires on larger rims of the Infiniti G35. This was a cause of neglect by the
defendant and Johnson’s employer, who argued against the user directions indicated on the tire.
Johnson is suing Coldrock Tire and Rubber Company, the designer of the wheel in
question. However, the plaintiff will sue the company through its chief executive, Roger “Cole”
Coldrock. The defendant is represented by the Wall Street firm of Ben, Jarvis, Green & Ellis,
LLP. The legal proceeding is founded on the point that the defendant failed to label the tire
explicitly. Also, the plaintiff claims that the label was not sufficiently conspicuous or effectively
depicted, resulting in the risks and danger witnessed in the scenario.
To establish and substantiate a prima facie civil case ground, the plaintiff, Johnson,
will be required to provide adequate submissions substantiating how the defendant indicated
negligence that caused harm before requesting the court to offer relief. The set of actions that
warrant the grounds for this case include severe permanent injuries caused by the tire’s
explosion. The plaintiff sustained injuries; he lost three fingers on his right hand and a permanent
vision loss in his right eye. Therefore, the elements to help argue the negligence cause of action,
the plaintiff will have to prove or defend breach, harm, duty, and causation. The set of facts
presented in the case indicates that Infiniti of Parkland’s manager failed in his duty, Coldrock
Tire and Rubber Company breached the user-wellness expectation, the plaintiff suffered harm,
and Coldrock Tire and Rubber Company’s product caused harm.

Juror (Lizbette Lopez )
1. Do you have any legal training?
•
I do not have any legal training.
2. Are you familiar with company law?
•
I am familiar with the term to the extent that any corporation is a legal entity created and
recognized by state law, and recognized as a legal person, not a natural person. Their
authority to act, also their liabilities are separate from its shareholders. Corporations
possess the same right of access to the courts as citizens and can sue or be sued. They are
entitled to the same constitutional guarantees of due process, free speech, and freedom
from unreasonable searches and seizures also apply to corporations.
3. Do you have knowledge of common legal terms?

I have knowledge about some common legal terms such as: cause of action: The reason
for which a plaintiff files a complaint or suit against someone. civil law: A generic term
for all non-criminal law, usually as it applies to settling disputes between private citizens
or entities. compensatory damages: Damages that are recovered for injury or economic
loss. contract: An agreement between two or more parties to do or refrain from doing
something; this often involves a promise of something in return for something of value.
There are both written and oral contracts, though in some states oral contracts have little
or no standing. depose: To testify or give under oath or sworn affidavit. 2 diligence:
Reasonable care or attention to a matter. Due diligence denotes what a normal,
responsible person would do under the same conditions. tort: A tort is a wrongful or
illegal act, whether intentional or accidental, in which an injury occurs to another. An
intentional tort may also be a crime, such as battery, fraud, or theft. Tort law is one of the
largest areas of civil law.

•
In my opinion customers are not always right. Sometimes they are wrong, employees
need to know how to handle them accordingly. I do agree we should always work
towards customer’s satisfaction but not to the point of agreeing to something incorrect or
unethical that could potentially hurt your business. On the other hand, you should own
your mistakes, so your business is not entirely affected by it.

defendant and Johnson’s employer, who argued against the user directions indicated on the tire.
Johnson is suing Coldrock Tire and Rubber Company, the designer of the wheel in
question. However, the plaintiff will sue the company through its chief executive, Roger “Cole”
Coldrock. The defendant is represented by the Wall Street firm of Ben, Jarvis, Green & Ellis,
LLP. The legal proceeding is founded on the point that the defendant failed to label the tire
explicitly. Also, the plaintiff claims that the label was not sufficiently conspicuous or effectively
depicted, resulting in the risks and danger witnessed in the scenario.
To establish and substantiate a prima facie civil case ground, the plaintiff, Johnson,
will be required to provide adequate submissions substantiating how the defendant indicated
negligence that caused harm before requesting the court to offer relief. The set of actions that
warrant the grounds for this case include severe permanent injuries caused by the tire’s
explosion. The plaintiff sustained injuries; he lost three fingers on his right hand and a permanent
vision loss in his right eye. Therefore, the elements to help argue the negligence cause of action,
the plaintiff will have to prove or defend breach, harm, duty, and causation. The set of facts
presented in the case indicates that Infiniti of Parkland’s manager failed in his duty, Coldrock
Tire and Rubber Company breached the user-wellness expectation, the plaintiff suffered harm,
and Coldrock Tire and Rubber Company’s product caused harm.

Juror (Lizbette Lopez )
1. Do you have any legal training?
•
I do not have any legal training.
2. Are you familiar with company law?
•
I am familiar with the term to the extent that any corporation is a legal entity created and
recognized by state law, and recognized as a legal person, not a natural person. Their
authority to act, also their liabilities are separate from its shareholders. Corporations
possess the same right of access to the courts as citizens and can sue or be sued. They are
entitled to the same constitutional guarantees of due process, free speech, and freedom
from unreasonable searches and seizures also apply to corporations.
3. Do you have knowledge of common legal terms?
•
I have knowledge about some common legal terms such as: cause of action: The reason
for which a plaintiff files a complaint or suit against someone. civil law: A generic term
for all non-criminal law, usually as it applies to settling disputes between private citizens
or entities. compensatory damages: Damages that are recovered for injury or economic
loss. contract: An agreement between two or more parties to do or refrain from doing
something; this often involves a promise of something in return for something of value.
There are both written and oral contracts, though in some states oral contracts have little
or no standing. depose: To testify or give under oath or sworn affidavit. 2 diligence:
Reasonable care or attention to a matter. Due diligence denotes what a normal,
responsible person would do under the same conditions. tort: A tort is a wrongful or
illegal act, whether intentional or accidental, in which an injury occurs to another. An
intentional tort may also be a crime, such as battery, fraud, or theft. Tort law is one of the
largest areas of civil law.

•
In my opinion customers are not always right. Sometimes they are wrong, employees
need to know how to handle them accordingly. I do agree we should always work
towards customer’s satisfaction but not to the point of agreeing to something incorrect or
unethical that could potentially hurt your business. On the other hand, you should own
your mistakes, so your business is not entirely affected by it.
