Question 4:

In 2009, Mark McEwen, a personality from the Early Show on CBS, brought a lawsuit against the Baltimore Washington Medical Center. McEwen went to the emergency room at the hospital with symptoms of a stroke, and a doctor told him he had the stomach flu and sent him away. On the plane heading home, McEwen filed a claim against the medical center, stating that his stroke could’ve been avoided if the doctor had prescribed aspirin and anticoagulants. How do you think the court decided the case? Do you think the court should hold the doctor responsible, or should the medical center be held accountable for the doctor’s actions? [McEwen et al v. Baltimore Washington Medical Center, Inc. et al (2009)].

Question 7:

Citicorp, the owner of both Diners Club and Carte Blanche, merged the two credit card firms into one firm, giving Diners Club the dominant voice. Diners Club then ceased Carte Blanche’s long-standing assistance to Carte Blanche Singapore (CBS). CBS sued Diners Club, claiming that it owed CBS a duty to continue providing services. CBS argued that because Carte Blanche and Diners Club were essentially the same firm, the court should pierce the corporate veil and hold Diners Club responsible for Carte Blanche’s failure to provide services to CBS. How do you think the court ruled in this case? Why? [Carte Blanche (Singapore) v. Diners Club International, 2 F.3d 24 (1993).]
