Answer to Question 1

Contribution is the legal right of co-tenants to enforce the obligation of each to pay his fair share of expenses. One hopes that contribution will be accomplished on a voluntary basis but when co-tenants fail to pay their fair share a legal action for contribution can be pursued.

Answer to Question 2

As a general rule, there is a reduced expectation of privacy in the workplace. If a company had adopted and notified employers of a workplace privacy policy, then courts are more likely to find that monitoring is reasonable. In City of Ontario v. Quon, 130 S. Ct. 2619, 2629 (2010), the Supreme Court held that the police department's review of the officer's text messages was reasonable, and thus did not violate Fourth Amendment.
