    In the case of Mr. Mara, Ms. Green provided the only evidence of an overt act to promote criminal activity or intent to participate in the said criminal activity. Ms. Green’s voluntary testimony after she was caught does not seem to accurately relay the actions of Mr. Mara. The veracity of her testimony is in the fact that “she’ confesses when she says “I made a mistake,” the actions and mistake are hers and not Mr. Mara. This was a joke, which now seemed to have spiraled out of control. It is the State’s responsibility to prove that Mr. Mara committed an overt act in pursuance of the agreement.

    1046 Words  | 5 Pages

    Ways to mitigate potential damages include: quickly settling outside of court before the public gets a hold of the information and going to trial, spending lots of money on a defense and being found not liable for damages against Ms. Lawson. Settling outside of court could be costly and portrayed by the public as guilty, while on the other hand, defending in court could be just as costly in attorney fees and even more costly if ultimately being found guilty. Would she risk it for a chance at winning in court, or would she settle outside of court for a sum of money? Ms. Lawson knows for a fact that she violated a breach of confidentiality agreements with Greene’s by letting Howell in on the plans for Ever-gold which allowed Howell to create a lookalike Ever-gold product and bring it to the marketplace, so Ms. Lawson should be careful with her approach to the matter at
