You will evaluate online resources for background checks and weather information. These are common electronic resources that you as a paralegal will use to perform investigations.

You are assigned a case that involves your client, Mr. Winters, who claims he was injured when he slipped on ice that covered the entryway of a local store. The incident happened at 8:45 a.m., on January 6 of this year. Assume the incident occurred in Killeen, Texas.
