judgment. Your anonymous assignment submission will include: (i) An introduction; (ii) A legal standard section; (iii) An argument section (using CREAC); and (iv) Point headings. You are representing the defendants in this action. You will be writing a Memorandum of Law in Support of a Motion for Summary Judgment. Your argument is that, as a matter of law, there are no material facts in genuine dispute, and that judgment can be granted as a matter of law. STEP ONE - RESEARCH: I have provided you with several cases to use to write your brief. Pay careful attention to the rule of law. Keep track of cases where the legal issue arises as to whether defendant is liable for the acts of their employee or whether the tortfeasor is instead an independent contractor. Please do not feel obligated to use every caseuse as many cases as you believe are necessary to advance your argument. Feel free to do research on your own if you would like more clarification on the subject matter of your memo, but only cite to the cases provided. To be clear, the cases that I have provided are sufficient for the assignmentyou do not need other cases, nor should you cite to other cases. However, I encourage you to research on your own if you would like to understand the the legal framework of your argument better. This also has the added benefit of providing you with an opportunity to practice your legal research skills in a way that is relevant and beneficial. STEP TWO - WRITING THE MOTION BRIEF: The general format for your work should be as follows: Omit from your finished work the caption, statement of facts, conclusion, and signature. Given the brevity of this assignment (3,000 words), write only the legal argument. This assignment is due Friday, October 27, 2023 at 11:59 p.m. on Canvas. Introduction (a/k/a Preliminary Statement) In this brief introductory section, you will tie together the law, the facts, and the theme. This is an opportunity to tell the reader what the case is about from your client's point of view.
-2- Your Introduction should include: (i) the parties; (ii) the requested relief; (iii) why you should win; and (iv) your theme. This section should only be several paragraphs. Standard for Motions for Summary Judgment In this brief section, explain (as I've stated above) that no material facts exist and thus this motion can be decided as a matter of law. You must cite authority for these statements. Defendants Are Not Vicariously Liable This section is the crux of your argument. Using the case law that you have found, structure your argument around the law and main points you wish to put before the court. Your organization will be influenced by two things: (1) What do the courts say is the rule regarding vicarious liability in tort law? (2) What issues are raised in this case? The structure of the argument is one for the students to shape, using good judgment. Use parallel citation form for New York cases

AFFIDAVIT IN SUPPORT OF DEFENDANTS' MOTION FOR SUMMARY JUDGMENT Index No. 123456/2023 --------------------------------------------------------------------- x STATE OF NEW YORK ) )SS.: COUNTY OF QUEENS ) CRISTIANO RONALDO, being duly sworn, deposes and says: 1. I am a chiropractor and solo practitioner with an office located in Jamaica, New York. The practice is called Al Nassr Chiropractic LLC, and it has been operating for several years. 2. I submit this Affidavit in support of Defendants' motion for summary judgment. 3. I provide strictly chiropractic services to my customers and not therapeutic massages. Some time ago, I approached Kepler Laveran de Lima Ferreira, also known as Pepe, and asked him if he wanted to provide therapeutic massages from an unused office space that I had. 4. Mr. Pepe agreed to rent the office from me and to provide therapeutic massages, which is a different kind of service for the public than what I provide.

I never provided Mr. Pepe with an employment contract, but instead he has a standard lease. 9. Mr. Pepe and I set our client fees independently of each other and we do not split fees. If I send a client to Mr. Pepe, then the fee that client pays is entirely his. The benefit to me is simply one of gratification that I could recommend a service to one of my clients. 10. We do not share print or web-based advertisements. 11. Our business cards do not list the other service. 12. I offer no payment to Mr. Pepe, but I do collect rent from him, which includes the fee for the utilities and the cost of sharing a receptionist. 13. Mr. Pepe is provided a client file should one of my clients see him, and vice- versa. 14. We maintain separate malpractice insurance, but my property insurance on the building covers his office.
-3- 15. We do not confer with each other about the hours we keep, although Mr. Pepe is not permitted to see patients outside of regular business hours. This is a stipulation of mine, and it is for property insurance purposes. ___________________________ CRISTIANO RONALDO Sworn to before me this 26th day of September, 2023 _________________________ Notary Public
