I was fortunate to make the contact with James a few weeks
before we were given this project. He was having some computer network issues
in his office, and I was referred to him by a mutual friend with whom I have
done some computer work for in the past. After taking care of his issues, I
talked to him about the forthcoming project for this class. He expressed an
interest and stated that he would be more than happy to help me out with the
project. James works with several of the casinos here in Las Vegas and mainly
works with contract and employment law. He has also had the opportunity to help
argue a case before the Supreme Court of the United States. While I am not sure
of the outcome of the case, to me that is a very impressive achievement. “United States Supreme Court This is the highest court in the
country. There are nine justices on the Court. One justice is the chief justice
and the other eight are associate justices. When they decide a case, each
justice casts an equal vote.” (Introduction to Business Law, Beatty
Samuelson, p40).
I feel James is a great choice due to his fairly extensive work dealing with contract laws, especially since one of the things I will be dealing with as a photographer is model release forms, which are a basic form of contract that helps to protect the rights of the photographer. “A contract is merely a legally enforceable agreement. People regularly make promises, but only some of them are enforceable.” (Introduction to Business Law, Beatty Samuelson, p143).
