All 10 questions must be answered with this scenario. Assignment due today Nov. 5, 2021 @ 11pm PST. Please answer all parts of the question with information provided. These are all individual questions NOT an essay. Brandon Cooper is a rapper who dropped (released) a song three years ago called I Love Your Dress. Drake, another rapper, just this month dropped a song called No Guidance. Mr. Cooper claims that Drake straight up jacked (infringed) on his intellectual property rights. Mr. Cooper alleges in his complaint that the beat, lyrics, hook and rhythmic structure of his song demonstrates that Drake is a thief. Specically, Cooper claims his track (song) has the lyrics "She got it; she got it\" repeated 16 times while Drake's has "You got it, girl; you got it" at least 11 times. Drake is outraged by the allegation that he infringed Mr. Cooper's intellectual property rights. Drake calls his friend, private detective Harry Boshe, to ask him to do some digging to nd dirt on Mr. Cooper. Harry says it will cost $50,000. Drake gives Harry a check for $50,000. Harry gives the check to his assistant, Ruby, with instructions to deposit the money into a special account just for this job. Ruby deposits $40,000 in the \"Drake" account, and puts $10,000 in an account for \"janitorial supplies.\" She begins writing checks from that account to a business she formed called Ofce Cleaners Plus. She does no cleaning. She uses that money, without Harry's knowledge, to pay for vacations and jewelry. Harry nds out about this and calls the police. The police go to Ruby's home to question her about the matter. They ring her doorbell. Ruby opens the door and shrieks, fearing an impending arrest. She slams the door and runs towards the back of the house. The police officer kicks open the door and races in after her. He reaches her just as she is about to set on re the set of books showing the money stolen from Harry. At Ruby's criminal trial the state introduces as evidence the partially burned books. Later that evening Drake gets a call from his housekeeper, Julia. She's not happy. She reminds him that throughout the month of July that, in addition to the housekeeping work she performed for him, she also took care of Drake's dogs. This was not part of her responsibilities laid out in the contract she has with him. Drake apologizes. He promises to mail a check to her the very next morning for $5000. Meanwhile, Harry, the private detective, is having a difcult time paying his bills due to Ruby's actions. Weighing heavily on his nances is $150,000 in student loans, and an earlier $1,000,000 court judgment against him for injuries he caused in a drunk driving accident. He plans to le for bankruptcy
