Please see page 253 ( i will post a picture)

– How would the lawsuit be affected if Novell admitted that the parties had an oral contract under which Meade was entitled to 25% of the difference between ACCOUNTS receivable and payable as of the day Meade quit? Explain and discuss
Refer to page 18 in the Syllabus for directions on paper preparation:
Remember:
Merely copying paragraphs out of the textbook or from the actual case will earn little CREDIT.
In Chapter 1, the point is made that there is often more than one answer to a legal question. Research the questions, watch the videos provided, complete the legal concepts and write about them in a college-level essay format.
Use the APA-style for the paper. Look this up if you don’t know what the style is.
Specific Requirements :
Papers should be a minimum of 750 words (approx. 3 pages) to a maximum of 1,000 words. Use the word count feature in Microsoft Word.
Remember: 750 words is a “minimum effort” and will earn less points that other submission of great depth
Do not use Wikipedia for legal references. Points will be deducted if you do. Use legal texts, journals, resources, our textbook, etc.
References may be footnoted – at the bottom of the page using numbers. Otherwise, just include a Bibliography of references as a separate page. Do not list just webpage addresses. The title of what is being referenced must be shown.
Strong readability (this means correct spelling, grammar, capitalization, written in a research style not as a conversation, etc.)
Please note: Personal, opinion-based discussions and those that read like a conversation with a peer (using “I”, “you” and “we”) are not acceptable. Write using the third person – like the text book.
Please Remember: The more research, writing, and analysis provided by the student increases the possibility for earning more points.
