CASE 9.8
E. coli, Jack-in-the-Box, and cooking
A Jack-in-the-Box case on January 11, 1993 showed that a meat should be cooked to an internal temperature of at least 155 degrees Fahrenheit or the meat no longer be pink or red inside.
Based on the case, if we eat a not-well-cooked meat, there is an E. coli bacteria inside it which can cause severe stomach cramps, bloody diarrhea or even death. For the example, is a death of young Michael. Who had eaten at Jack-in-the-Box restaurants were poisoned with E. coli bacteria, Cooking to 155 degrees can cause the increasing of restaurant’s costs because it slows delivery of food to customers and increases energy costs. Nevertheless, the company can not avoid thinking about customers health.
All in all, the Jack-in-the-Box restaurant paid the effected people out by the end of 1997 with most of the settlements coming from a pool of $100 million established by the company’s ten insurers.

CASE 8.9
Louis Vuitton and the Landlords
The case is about Louis Vitton and the Landlords.Maybe everybody’s know and ever heard about Louis Vitton, and now what is the problem?????? These are the business people who produce goods that look like the luxury good brand items,Cartier watches, Louis Vitton bags, and anything Gucci are among the most popular items. The problem is in China that is the main area for production of counterfeit goods, increased acces to view the designer goods and male the replications more authentic. The internet allows the posting of photos of the real thing and the selling of knock-offs, and is the main source of income for terrorist groups the Chinese triad.
One private investigator who works for brand-name companies says that handbag counterfeinters can make as much money as someone who sells cocaine. To cut back on the increasing problem, France has passed a new law making it a crime for someone to buy or carry a knock-off bag.A violation carries up to a new three year sentence in France. And on New York’s Canal Street , owners Louis Vuitton post signs that retailer is not authorized or licensed to sell Louis Vuitton merchandise. Counterfeiting is criminally and civilly punishable under federal and state law by up to ten years of imprisonment and $2,000,000 in fines.
Buyers of counterfeit goods are not prosecuted,,companies such as Louis Vuitton are turning to Landlords, property owners, shippers, credit card companies, and any others in the supply chain to stop the flow of goods with suits for vicarious or contributory liability. Asettlement in one case found the landlords promising to evict tenats who sell fake goods as well as hang the warning signs permanently. Companies that have joined with Louis Vuitton, they refer to their work with the supply chain as “the Landlord program.”The result is the pursuit of the Landlords, and landlords are generally larger companies with more funds and less likelihood of having judgment_proof status

CASE 7.16
Exxon and Alaska
At This chapter tells about case Exxon which is not only once even twice that is: first, when the Exxon Valdez ran aground on Bligh Reef, south of Valdez, Alaska, and spilled nearly 11 million gallons of oil into Prince William Sound. The captain of the tanker was Joseph Hazelwood.
Why its happened? when Captain Hazelwood prudently took the vessel east of the shipping lanes to avoid a heavy concentration of ice in the shipping lane, which is a serious hazard. Paintiffs have not claimed that Captain Hazelwood violated any law or regulation by travelling outside the sea lane. The problem with being outside the sea lane was that ship’s course was directly toward Bligh Reef. And Before leaving he added to the complexity of the maneuver that needed to be made: he put the vesselon outopilot, which is not usually done when a vessel is out of the shipping lanes, and the autopilot program sped the vessel up, making it approach the reef faster and reducing the time during which error could be correct. Simply Hazelwood had a history of drinking problems. The jury could have concluded from the evidence before them that leaving the bridge was an extradionary lapse of judgment caused by Captain Hazelwood’s intoxication. Almost a week after the Princes William Sound accident, Exxon revealed yhat Hazelwood’s blood-alcohol reading was 0.061 in a test taken ten and one-half hours after the spill occurred-a level that would indicated intoxication. Exxon also announced it had fired Hazelwood.
A Second, Exxon oil spill occurred when a pipeline under the Arthur kill waterway between Staten Island and New Jersey burst and spilled 567,000 gallons of heating oil. Why can be like that? I think cause Exxon has a corporate philosophy that the environtment is some kind of nuisance problem and a distraction from the real business of moving oil around.
Exxon was indicted on federal felony charges of violating maritime safety and antipollution laws in the Valdez spill. The charges were brought after Exxon and the Justice Department failed to reach a settlement. The oil company also faced state criminal charges. Alaska and the Justice Department also brought civil suits against Exxon for the cost of cleaning up the spill.
And finally, the State of Alaska and the Justice Department , relying on the loophole, demanded an additional $92 million damages. The amount is needed, according to the exercise of the clause in the agreement, because of oil still present along the beaches.

CASE 4.10
Nestle Infant Formula
In this case explains about nestle as formula for babies ( Nestle Infant Formula), which always in debated in the United State and other developed countries is problems of breast-feeding versus using infant formula. Studies have demonstrated the difficulties and risks of bottle-feeding babies in such places.
There are three risks from the bottle-feeding babies : First, refrigeration is not generally available, so the formula, once it is mixed or opened (in the case of premixed types) , cannot be stored properly. Second, the lack of purified water for mixing with the formula powder results in diarrhea or other diseases in formula-fed infants. Third, inadequate education and income , along with cultural differences , often lead to the dilution of formula and thus greatly reduced nutrition.
According to my opinion, babies had better breastfed beforehand by her mother because by given mother's milk the baby will out of danger and from disease caused by consumed nestle.
