Write in-depth briefs explaining your selected cases using the IRAC method. Each case brief should be 350 to 525 words and include an explanation of how the legal concepts in the selected case can be applied within a managerial business setting including considerations such as but not limited to:

    • Insurance
    • Internal auditing and reporting procedures
