Sharp S: The Structured Deal

The Structured Deal

A Legal Insider's Guide to Business Acquisitions Through Letters of Intent

This book examines what is often a "bet-the-company" area of construction law. In the last two decades, the federal government and whistleblowers have prosecuted billions of dollars in claims brought under the False Claims Act, with a substantial number arising from construction projects. There are many ways that construction projects can fall under the False Claims Act, including making one or more false payment applications or filing a false statement which is just part of a request for compensation. The civil penalties are severe: statutory penalties plus treble the amount of damages sustained by the government because of the fraud.False Claims in Construction Contracts, Second Edition is an essential desk book for civil and criminal litigators, as well as transactional counselors of contractors, subcontractors, suppliers, design professionals, project and construction managers, and even project owners. It provides a complete grounding in a complex and often intimidating area of federal and state law. It begins with a brief history and overview of the act, focusing on the sweeping changes made in the 1986 overhaul. A subsequent chapter details the steps and procedural issues involved in a private citizen bringing an action under the False Claims Act (FCA), also known as a qui tam action. The balance of False Claims in Construction Contracts focuses on all aspects of construction-related claims under the FCA, including discussion of the landmark Daewoo case.Topics covered: <ul><li>Bid rigging and collusive bids</li><li>FCA claims for false statements, from requests for information, through applications for progress and final payments, to certificates of completion</li><li>Claims against key participants in a construction project: design professionals and construction managers, and contractors and subcontractors</li><li>Damages and penalties in an FCA claim and how the severity and inflexibility of the statute's regime affects litigation and settlement</li><li>Retaliation claims</li><li>Corporate compliance programs viewed from the perspective of preventing often-devastating FCA claims -- and how to prepare when a claim is made</li><li>The corporation's perspective on practical considerations in defending a claim</li><li>Resolving FCA claims, most frequently through settlement</li><li>Criminal prosecution of FCA defendants, including the differences between inside and outside counsel</li></ul>Description and analysis of the federal government's penalties guidelinesThe final chapter offers an especially valuable state-by-state summary of state false claims liability. Fourteen states have enacted statutes similar to the federal False Claims Act, and others are currently considering such legislation. Where states do not have a traditional false claims act, the summary explains alternate provisions addressing the submission of construction-related false claims.

False Claims in Construction Contracts, Second Edition

'This new edition tells you all you need to know about how construction defects in homes occur, how they might be prevented, and how they might be cured.' &gt;The first edition of Residential Construction Law in 2021 offered the only systematic and analytical overview of the legal framework for residential construction. Since then, there have been significant legislative and caselaw developments across the UK, Aotearoa New Zealand, Australia and Ireland. In this second edition, the authors and their team of specialist contributors have completely revised the content, taking these changes into account. This new edition refers to more than 350 new cases, along with ground-breaking reforms like the UK's Building Safety Act 2022 and lessons from the September 2024 Phase 2 report of the Grenfell Tower Inquiry. The book also anticipates planned reforms, including sweeping changes in several Australian states. &gt;Accompanying online resources for this title can be found at bloomsbury.pub/residential-construction-law

Residential Construction Law

You Didn't Lose Your IP - You Gave It Away

"In one wide-ranging volume, Lambert and the country reporters demonstrate that law can not only keep up with technological change, but can in fact stay well ahead by anticipating upcoming questions. This comprehensive comparative reference will be invaluable for lawyers and students." (Professor Joshua Fairfield. Washington and Lee University School of Law, Review of a previous edition) Bringing together a global team of authors, the International Handbook of Social Media Laws covers the law relating to social media across 34 countries in total. From influential social media defamation cases in Australia, to tweeting from court, and regulations enforced by the UK's Online Safety Act 2023, this book clearly articulates the main legal issues and developments across various legal jurisdictions, to ensure a company's social media presence is fully compliant with the law of each country. The third edition has been fully updated to incorporate new criminal and civil case law, and covers topics including: - Online abuse, online bullying and cyberbullying laws - Laws or rules specific to children and social media - Bans or restrictions on the use of, or access to, the internet or social media, including the influential TikTok, Inc. v. Garland case in the US - Use of social media as evidence in courts - Hacking and data breach laws. Contributors to the volume each provide coverage of their own country, ensuring the volume is both authoritative and practical. Countries represented include: Argentina, Australia, Belgium, Brazil, Bulgaria, China, Czech Republic, Denmark, El Salvador, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, India, Ireland, Italy, Malta, Mexico, New Zealand, Norway, Senegal, Serbia, Singapore, Slovenia, South Africa, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Taiwan, United Kingdom, United States and Uruguay. This title is included in Bloomsbury Professional's Intellectual Property and IT online service.

International Handbook of Social Media Laws

This book explores how different legal systems handle a particularly difficult type of corporate wrongdoing: Catholic dioceses' responsibility for child sexual abuse. Usually, when people think about corporate wrongdoing, they think about tax fraud, insider trading, and similar 'white-collar' crime. As corporations, dioceses' responsibility for child sexual abuse exists separately from that of individual perpetrators, and this corporate responsibility is the focus of this book. Through an analysis of cases involving dioceses that have significant documented histories of priests abusing children, this book illustrates how criminal law, canon law, tort law, bankruptcy law and an Australian Royal Commission have responded (or why they have not). The cases involve the Diocese of Ballarat, in Victoria, Australia, and the Diocese of Gallup, in northern Arizona and New Mexico, in the United States. Each diocese faced similar claims in a diverse field of legal systems, so very different legal systems were handling, in essence, the same cases in dissimilar contexts. Employing a novel interdisciplinary approach, the book traces the theories, purposes, doctrines, procedures, and logistics of engaging with these different legal systems - evaluating what they can and cannot do. Revitalising theories of responsive law, the book demonstrates that it is possible for legal systems to better hold not just Catholic dioceses, but corporations more generally, to account for wrongdoing, but we may need to rethink how those systems are structured.

Intellectual Property Debates in South Asia

This groundbreaking book explores the dynamic intersections between religion as a cultural-theological construct and intellectual property as the legal framework governing creativity and innovation. Featuring contributions from over 30 leading scholars, the book examines how IP law regulates religious subject matter-sacred symbols, texts, music-and how religious traditions shape and are shaped by contemporary issues in IP law. From Islamic perspectives on trademark law to Jewish analyses of copyright and Confucian views on IP law, the book provides a multicultural lens on the interplay between faith, law, and commerce. A critical resource for IP scholars, ethnographers, theologians, and policymakers, this book offers fresh insights into the global and interdisciplinary dimensions of intellectual property, enriching both academic discourse and practice.

Intellectual Property and Religion

This is the updated and expanded edition of the only radical, multidisciplinary, international introduction to intellectual property in its socio-economic contexts. Bringing together voices from law, sociology, economics, political science, and cultural studies from across the Global North and Global South, experts and activists Mat Callahan and Jim Rogers offer a detailed history and analysis of IP before asking critical questions designed to underscore its importance in the broader struggle between capital and the commons. What are the broader implications of IP, whether for agribusiness, pharmaceuticals, education, or entertainment? Is IP law a fundamental pillar of our culture, or has it been used to protect and assert the ownership of, and thus limit, the spread of ideas and creativity? With a chapter structure moving from historical and theoretical foundations to industry-specific conflicts and policy analysis, this book covers the breadth and depth of IP areas, including patents, copyrights, trademarks, and trade secrets, as well as emerging issues such as digital rights and biotechnology. Key features include: - voluminous, up-to-date case studies, both Western and non-Western; - an extensive, jargon-busting list of abbreviations of specialized or technical terms; - a new chapter on copyright and socialism; - revisions and updates accounting for the seismic impacts of artificial intelligence. This is a foundational must-read for all researchers, students, and activists interested in critical analyses of IP laws and policies--not just their legal frameworks, but also their broader social, economic, and political implications.
