Step 5: Review Colossal’s International Legal Challenges

Successfully completing the Turnip Plaza report, you’re ready to review your next assignment: the  International Legal Challenges case file .

You open the file and read over the specifics of this situation. You soon see that VP Dodger is concerned about some of the risks involved with a number of Colossal’s international projects.

In the next step, you will gather the information you need to dentify important issues for the VP.

Gather and Analyze the Information

While you have some general awareness that there are many ramifications of international transactions from a legal perspective, including dispute resolution provisions, you realize that you need to know a lot more about this subject before you can attempt to respond to the VP's questions.

You begin by researching  international law ,  international contracts , an  introduction to alternative dispute resolution , and  international dispute resolution .

Step 7: Engage in the International Legal Challenges Discussion

Discussion with Colleagues

Now that you’ve gathered and analyzed information on the International Legal   Challenges case file, Vice President Dodger would like you to discuss your thoughts with the other members of his special investigations team. He sends you two requirements for this discussion:

First, each participant is to post an initial response to at least two of the five questions noted in the International Legal Challenges file. This should be completed during Week 5 and should meet the following requirements:

· Include a specific recommendation of what action, if any, the VP should take based on your analysis and conclusions.

· Support your conclusion with references to legal principles and laws.

· These posts can be as long or as short as you need in order to effectively make your points.

Second, each participant must provide a substantive response to at least one posting from a colleague in the discussion, critiquing the initial post by appealing to legal and business considerations.
