In a case called Smith v. Zeigfield, Zeigfield loses at the trial court level. Give the parties' names at the trial court level and explain what happens on appeal.

Question 2

A bar and restaurant located directly next to the edge of the campus at Arizona State University is called The Dash Inn. The Inn is a favorite stop for students and is generally very crowded in the afternoon and evenings. When a student uses a credit card to pay his or her tab at the Dash Inn, the receipt for the student and the credit card data have recorded automatically at the top, The Dash Inn Bookstore. Why do the receipts have this inscription at the top? What ethical problems do you see with this inscription?

Answer to Question 1

At trial, Smith is the plaintiff and Zeigfield is the defendant. Upon appeal, Zeigfield is the petitioner or appellant and Smith is the respondent or appellee. The case name may change to Zeigfield versus Smith.

Answer to Question 2

The Dash Inn is attempting to help the students disguise from spouses and families their true spending habits. No one is likely to challenge receipts from a bookstore. But it does make the Dash Inn a participant, indeed the instigator, in an ethical breach of giving or allowing false impressions.
