Abstract

The primary subject matter of this case concerns the legal environment of business, intellectual property, and business ethics.

The case has a difficulty level of three: it is appropriate for junior level students or higher. It can be used successfully with more advanced students. Faculty should expect a more sophisticated level of analysis from more advanced students. The case is designed to be taught in one class hour. Most students can prepare in two hours outside of class.
