In this week's episode Rabbi Kohn discusses how the Torah's commandments on civil laws and specifically the laws regarding damages are not just about financial compensation. He points out how the Torah sets up a system where we can learn to be more caring people by being careful with the property of others. He also speaks about the prohibition of causing pain to a widow and orphan and how that can take differet forms. Subscribe to The Practical Parsha Podcast.

Allow God To Fix Your Damages In 2026Scripture References:2 Samuel 13:1-20Key Points:1. Allow God to heal your physical damages, molestation, rape, abuse or unjust beatings, only then will you be able to soar like eagles wings. Matthew 6:9-152. The best way to be free emotionally is to forgive immediately, not letting go will keep you scarred internally.Proverbs 11:15Proverbs 22:26-27Proverbs 6:1-53. There are many aspects to financial repair, but trust God's Word and don't cosign for anyone far or near.Luke 15:11-244. You can't be restored spiritually while wearing Satan's blindfold, so the first thing you need to do is find a good Bible teaching church and return to the sheepfold.Luke 15:1-10
A federal jury in Phoenix ordered Uber to pay $8.5 million to passenger Jaylen Dean after she was raped by an Uber driver in November 2023. This landmark verdict represents the first time Uber has been found liable in a sexual assault case, potentially affecting over 3,000 pending lawsuits against the rideshare company. The jury rejected Uber's longstanding defense that drivers are independent contractors rather than employees, establishing crucial legal precedent for future cases.Court records reveal that between 2017 and 2022, Uber received reports of sexual assault or misconduct approximately every 8 minutes in the United States. That amounts to at least seven reports per hour, 24 hours a day, seven days a week. These numbers are widely believed to be dramatically underreported due to shame, fear, and victims' belief that nothing will be done.Evidence presented during the trial showed that Uber's internal systems flagged Jaylen Dean's ride as high risk for a serious safety incident moments before pickup, yet the company chose not to warn her, with executives testifying it would have been "impractical" to do so. This revelation undermines Uber's public claims about prioritizing rider safety above all else.The case highlights systemic failures in rideshare safety protocols and raises questions about liability when companies classify workers as independent contractors while simultaneously monitoring risk levels. Uber spokesperson Matt Colin stated the verdict "affirms that Uber acted responsibly" while simultaneously announcing plans to appeal. The plaintiff's attorneys had requested $144 million in damages. Uber maintains that 99.9% of rides occur without incident, though critics argue this statistic minimizes thousands of annual assault victims. The legal battle continues as rideshare companies face increasing scrutiny over sexual violence during rides.

Europe has experienced numerous crises since Donald Trump returned to the White House: on trade and tariffs; on Ukraine; and perhaps the most surreal one – on Greenland. The latter was unprecedented: NATO's leading member, the US, openly expressing its territorial designs on another NATO member, Denmark. With each emergency, the same calls have been heard for Europe to wake up and take its destiny into its own hands. But how should the EU and the European members of NATO actually make a strategic shift? We put the question to two MEPs.

Financial Advisor Paris Jackson with Northwestern Mutual talks to Anna about paying for the repairs to your property caused by the recent Middle TN ice storm. She talks about where to find the money in your budget to build your savings or emergency fund - including how to "buckle down!" Paris also gives ideas about ways to pay for repairs (since every repair doesn't have to be made immediately) and the deductibles involved, and what to look for in your homeowners insurance policy. Most importantly, she says, is to ASSESS where you are, what expenses you're facing, and - if needed - ask for help. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This is Part 9 in a series celebrating the 40th Anniversary of Harvard University Press' 1985 publication of Richard A. Epstein's "Takings: Private Property and the Power of Eminent Domain." We continue our celebration of this anniversary with a fair use and transformative reading, continuing and now finishing chapter 4 in a new section which Richard calls ""Takings Prima Facia," which makes the analogy between private law takings in the common law harm tradition and the public law takings where the government is a defendant. He titles chapter "Takings and Torts," because he's taking a look at political philosophy and the American constitutional order, how these things interact using argument by analogy with the common law/private law tradition, ensconced as it is in the purpose of the Constitution. That moral purpose is the protection of individual liberty against claims by a simple majority in a democracy, or by the government in a taking of private property. Today we discuss the subsections of Proximate Causation and Consequential Damages from pp. 47 to the end of the chapter on p. 56. At the end, this episode concludes with a reading of Psalm 33 in the NASB version. Excellent stuff here. Excellent. Every college student should read this book. It's a superb introduction to the political philosophy of the American regime. Praise the Lord. We'd like to thank Harvard University Press for making this material available and Richard Epstein for writing it. Make sure you buy the book and follow along. It's very important for you to have your own copy on your own bookshelf, and to begin to master this material. Support your local book dealer. See if they have a copy of it, or if they'd mind keeping an eye out for you. I always encourage buying physical books, objects you can have, hold, cherish, learn from, display on your bookshelf as a topic of conversation, things you can pass on to the next generation with your notes in them, things that do not depend upon electricity. Toward that end: Go to Harvard University Press for more selections available for purchase. Please support the publisher and your local booksellers.

Nearly half of U.S. adults have undiagnosed hypertension, which increases risks for stroke, heart attack, and early brain impairment due to reduced oxygen and nutrient delivery to neural tissue Early hypertension triggers rapid cellular damage, including endothelial aging, neuronal energy loss, myelin disruption, and blood-brain barrier leakage, all of which accelerate inflammation and cognitive decline even before symptoms appear Long-term high blood pressure leads to changes such as white matter hyperintensities, microbleeds, and brain volume loss. These findings are strongly linked to slower processing, stroke risk, and dementia Dementia risk rises with midlife hypertension, and older adults with high blood pressure show accelerated brain aging; regular monitoring beginning around age 40 helps reduce long-term cognitive decline Treatment can reverse some early damage, while lifestyle strategies such as diet changes, exercise, and better sleep significantly lower blood pressure and help protect long-term brain health

IP Fridays - your intellectual property podcast about trademarks, patents, designs and much more
Brian is: Managing Director, GlassRatner LinkedIn bio: https://www.linkedin.com/in/brianbuss I am Rolf Claessen and my co-host Ken Suzan and I are welcoming you to episode 170 of our podcast IP Fridays! We also want to wish you a happy holiday season and a successful year 2026! Today's interview guest is Brian Buss. He is the managing director of GlassRatner and my co-host Ken Suzan talks with him about the valuation of intellectual property rights and damages in infringement cases. But before we jump into the interview, I have news for you! A US start-up called Operation Bluebird is trying to take over the “Twitter” trademark. It has asked the USPTO to cancel Twitter word marks, arguing that Elon Musk's company X no longer uses them after the rebrand. Led by a former Twitter trademark lawyer, Operation Bluebird also filed its own “Twitter” trademark application. Commentators note that X could face challenges defending the legacy marks if they are truly no longer in use. In parallel, the US debate on patent quality and review procedures is intensifying. The USPTO proposed controversial rule changes that would restrict Inter Partes Review (IPR). The proposal triggered substantial backlash, with more than 11,000 public comments submitted—over 4,000 of them via the civil liberties group EFF. In the EU, a major trademark reform will take effect on 1 January 2026. It aims to simplify procedures, recognize new types of marks (including hologram, multimedia, and motion marks), and make fees more SME-friendly (e.g., lower base fees for the first class and discounts for timely renewals). Opposition procedures will be further harmonized across the EU, including a mandatory “cooling-off” period, so mid-sized brand owners should adjust filing and monitoring strategies accordingly. The Unified Patent Court (UPC) continues to see strong uptake, especially in Germany. In the first 18 months since its launch on 1 June 2023, well over 900 cases were filed, with German local divisions (Munich, Düsseldorf, Mannheim, Hamburg) leading in patent actions. While many early cases were filed in German, English now dominates as the main language of proceedings. The court has largely met its timelines, with oral hearings typically held within 12 months of filing. China has reached a milestone in its patent system: for the first time, a country has surpassed 5 million active invention patents. CNIPA emphasizes a strategic shift from “quantity to quality,” citing growth in “high-value” patents and higher commercialization rates for university inventions. China has also led global PCT filings for six consecutive years—signals of rapid technological progress relevant to IP planning for German SMEs. On 4 December 2025, the USPTO issued new guidance on “Subject Matter Eligibility Declarations.” These declarations allow applicants to submit additional evidence to support patent eligibility for emerging technologies such as AI systems and medical diagnostics, aiming to reduce the risk that breakthrough inventions are excluded from protection under strict eligibility case law. In December, the European Patent Office (EPO) introduced new patent-quality measures. Third parties can now submit observations on published applications or granted patents via a simplified online form. These Third-Party Observations—supported by evidence and even filed anonymously—go directly to examination teams to flag potential obstacles early. The Interview with Brian Buss: Ken Suzan interviews Brian Buss, a valuation and damages expert who describes his work as “financial detective” work: identifying what intellectual property and other intangible assets are worth and how they translate into measurable economic benefits such as sales, profit, earnings, or cash flow. Buss emphasizes that “IP” should be understood broadly, not only as formal rights (patents, trademarks, copyrights), but also as brands, technology portfolios, internet and social media assets, know-how, and other business intangibles that help generate economic value. A central point is that IP is often a company's most valuable resource but is rarely measured well. Buss cites a “value gap” he observed in middle-market public companies: market capitalization often exceeds the asset values shown on balance sheets, and much of the gap is explained by intangible assets and IP. He argues that valuation helps companies understand ROI on IP spend (prosecution, protection, enforcement) and supports better strategic decision-making. He outlines common scenarios that trigger IP valuation: internal management needs (understanding performance drivers), disputes about resource allocation (e.g., technology vs. marketing), external events (M&A, licensing, partnerships, franchising, divestitures), and pricing strategy (how exclusivity supported by IP should affect product/service pricing). On “how” valuation is performed, Buss summarizes the three standard approaches—cost (replacement/replication cost), market (comparable transactions), and income (present value of future benefits). He adds that strong IP valuation requires integrating three dimensions of analysis: financial factors (performance data and projections), behavioral factors (customer demand drivers, perceptions, brand recall, feature importance), and legal factors (registration/enforcement history and competitive IP landscape). For practical readiness, he advises companies to improve data discipline: maintain solid books and records; develop credible budgets, forecasts, and business plans; document marketing activities; and actively collect/monitor website and social analytics (e.g., traffic sources, engagement). He stresses that these datasets inform valuation even for technology assets like patents, because they reveal whether protected features are actually marketed and valued by customers. A concrete example is domain names, which he frames as “virtual real estate.” In due diligence for a domain sale, he would focus on analytics showing whether the domain itself drives traffic (direct type-ins, branded search terms, bookmarks) versus traffic driven by other marketing efforts. The key question is whether the address is known and used as a pathway to the business. In closing, Buss argues that while gathering the necessary information requires effort, the investment typically pays off through greater awareness of the most valuable assets, better strategic decisions, and stronger support for growth opportunities. He presents IP valuation as a virtuous cycle of information, insight, and improved decision-making—summed up in his recurring theme: knowledge of IP value is “power” to increase business profitability and enterprise value. Here is the full transcript: Ken Suzan: Our guest today on the IP Fridays podcast is Brian Buss. Brian is a managing director with Glass-Rattner Advisory and Capital Group. Brian provides financial analysis, corporate finance, and expert testimony around the world. Ken Suzan: Mr. Buss provides strategic advice for owners of intellectual property portfolios, transactional services such as acquisition due diligence and purchase price allocation, and valuation services for trademarks, patents, copyrights, brand assets, trade secrets, technology assets, and intangibles. Ken Suzan: During his career, Mr. Buss has provided valuation opinions and financial analysis in business disputes and in transactions, and he has been retained as a testifying expert and consulting expert in federal court, state courts, and arbitration proceedings. Ken Suzan: As an expert, Mr. Buss has provided over 100 expert opinions, served as an expert witness at trial and deposition, and has been published in numerous journals and publications. He is also a participant in the International Task Force on Intellectual Property Reporting for Brands. Ken Suzan: Brian holds an MBA from San Diego State University and a bachelor's degree from Claremont McKenna College. Welcome, Brian, to the IP Fridays podcast. Brian Buss: Thank you, Ken, for having me. I appreciate the opportunity. Ken Suzan: Excellent, Brian. Can you tell our listeners a little bit about your professional background and what you do in the world of IP? Brian Buss: Sure. I'm a valuation professional and an economic damages expert. Most of my work involves valuing intellectual property and intangible assets and, in litigation contexts, assessing economic damages—often related to IP disputes. My role is frequently to translate legal or technical issues into financial outcomes. Ken Suzan: When people hear “IP,” they often think patents, trademarks, and copyrights. In your work, how broadly do you define intellectual property and intangible assets? Brian Buss: I define it very broadly. Of course, there are the formal rights—patents, trademarks, copyrights—but there are many other intangible assets that drive value: brand reputation, customer relationships, proprietary know-how, trade secrets, data, software, domain names, social media assets, and the systems and processes a business builds over time. All of those can create economic value, even if they're not always captured well on a balance sheet. Ken Suzan: Why is IP valuation important for companies—especially mid-sized businesses that may not have a large in-house legal or finance team? Brian Buss: Because IP and intangible assets can be a large portion—sometimes the largest portion—of what makes a business valuable, yet they're often not measured or managed with the same discipline as tangible assets. Valuation can help companies understand what is actually driving revenue, profit, and enterprise value. It can also help them justify investment in IP creation, protection, and enforcement, and it can support strategic decisions like licensing, partnerships, acquisitions, or pricing. Ken Suzan: You've talked elsewhere about a “value gap” between what's on the balance sheet and what the market thinks a company is worth. Can you explain that concept? Brian Buss: Sure. If you look at many companies—particularly in the middle market—you'll often see that market capitalization exceeds the asset values recorded on the balance sheet. A significant portion of that difference is attributable to intangible assets and IP that accounting rules don't fully recognize unless there's an acquisition. That “gap” is essentially the market saying, “There is value here beyond tangible assets,” and much of it comes from intangibles. Ken Suzan: What are the most common situations where a company needs an IP valuation? Brian Buss: There are a few big categories. One is transactions—M&A, due diligence, purchase price allocation, and financing. Another is licensing and partnerships—setting royalty rates, structuring deals, or evaluating whether a proposed license makes economic sense. A third is internal management: understanding ROI on R&D, marketing, or IP spend, or resolving internal debates about what is really driving business performance. And of course, litigation—damages, reasonable royalties, lost profits, and other economic remedies tied to IP. Ken Suzan: In practical terms, how do you value IP? What methods do you use? Brian Buss: The valuation profession generally relies on three approaches: the cost approach, the market approach, and the income approach. The cost approach looks at what it would cost to recreate or replace the asset. The market approach looks at comparable transactions—if you can find good comparables. The income approach is often the most relevant for IP: it looks at the present value of future economic benefits attributable to the IP, based on cash flows, risk, and time. Ken Suzan: In addition to the financial methods, what other factors matter? For example, legal strength or market perception? Brian Buss: Exactly. A strong valuation integrates financial, behavioral, and legal analysis. Financial is obvious—historic results, projections, margins, pricing. Behavioral is about demand drivers—what customers value, how they perceive the brand, how features influence purchasing decisions, and what drives loyalty or switching. Legal involves the nature of the IP rights, scope, enforceability, registration and maintenance history, and the competitive landscape. IP exists at the intersection of all three. Ken Suzan: What kind of information should a company have ready if they want to do an IP valuation? Brian Buss: Good books and records are essential—reliable financial statements, product-level revenue and cost data if possible, and credible budgets and forecasts. They should also document marketing activities, product positioning, and the role of IP in commercialization. For digital and brand assets, analytics matter—website traffic sources, conversion data, engagement metrics, and social media statistics. The more you can connect the IP or intangible asset to measurable economic outcomes, the stronger the valuation. Ken Suzan: That's interesting—people might not think that marketing analytics matter for patents. Can you explain how those link up? Brian Buss: Sure. A patent might cover a particular feature or technology, but the key economic question is: does that feature drive demand? If customers value it and it supports pricing power, adoption, or market share, that's important. Marketing materials, customer communications, sales training, and analytics can help show what the company emphasizes and what resonates with customers. It helps tie the legal right to real-world economic value. Ken Suzan: You mentioned domain names earlier. Many people underestimate them. How do you think about domain names as an asset? Brian Buss: I often describe domain names as virtual real estate. The question is whether the domain is a meaningful pathway to the business. In a valuation context, you'd look at the domain's role in generating traffic—direct navigation, branded search, bookmarks, and repeat visits. You'd also look at how much traffic is attributable to the domain itself versus paid marketing. If the domain is known and drives organic traffic and credibility, it can be quite valuable. Ken Suzan: So, if you're doing due diligence on a domain sale, what would you look for? Brian Buss: I'd look closely at analytics: traffic volume over time, sources of traffic, geographic distribution, conversion rates, and the relationship between marketing spend and traffic. If traffic is mostly paid and disappears when marketing stops, that's different than sustained direct navigation. I'd also look at brand alignment, risk factors, and whether there are disputes or competing rights. Ken Suzan: For a mid-sized company listening to this, what are the biggest “misses” you see—things companies do that reduce the value they can capture from IP? Brian Buss: A big one is not collecting and organizing information that demonstrates value. Another is not aligning IP strategy with business strategy—filing patents or trademarks without a clear plan for how they support products, markets, and revenue. Some companies also underinvest in documenting commercialization and customer impact, which becomes important in transactions and disputes. And sometimes they simply don't revisit their portfolios to understand what is still relevant and what is not. Ken Suzan: How should companies think about ROI on IP spend—both the costs of prosecution and the costs of enforcement? Brian Buss: They should start by identifying the economic role of the IP: is it supporting pricing power, is it protecting market share, is it enabling licensing revenue, is it reducing competitive entry? Then they can compare the costs—filing, maintenance, monitoring, enforcement—against the value it protects or creates. Valuation can provide a framework for that, and it can also help prioritize where to spend resources. Ken Suzan: When valuation is used in litigation, what are the typical types of damages analysis you're asked to perform? Brian Buss: Commonly, reasonable royalty analysis, lost profits, unjust enrichment, and sometimes disgorgement depending on the jurisdiction and the claims. The specifics depend on the legal framework, but the core is the same: quantify the economic harm and connect it causally to the alleged infringement or misappropriation, using financial data, market evidence, and assumptions that can be tested. Ken Suzan: Are there misconceptions about valuation that you'd like to correct for our audience? Brian Buss: One misconception is that valuation is purely subjective or that it's just an “opinion.” A good valuation is grounded in data, established methodologies, and transparent assumptions. Another is that intangibles can't be measured. They can be measured—often through the economic benefits they create and through evidence of customer behavior and market dynamics. It takes work, but it's doable. Ken Suzan: If a company wants to prepare for a future transaction—say a sale or a major partnership—what are some practical steps they can take now to make their IP story stronger? Brian Buss: Maintain clean records, develop credible forecasts, and document the link between IP and business results. Make sure registrations and maintenance are up to date. Track how IP supports products and competitive differentiation. Collect evidence of brand strength and customer loyalty. And if possible, structure internal reporting so you can see performance by product line or offering. That helps in due diligence and helps buyers or partners understand what they're paying for. Ken Suzan: Any final thoughts or advice for owners of intellectual property portfolios, transactional professionals, or executives listening to this? Brian Buss: I'd emphasize that the investment in gathering the information needed for evaluation typically pays off. It creates awareness of the most valuable assets, supports better strategic decisions, and makes it easier to pursue growth opportunities. IP valuation is a virtuous cycle of information gathering, analysis, deeper understanding, and then decision-making. Knowledge is power, and knowledge of the value of your IP is the power to increase the profitability and value of your business. IP valuation is a key element of the management toolkit. Ken Suzan: Brian, well said, and thank you so much for taking time today to be on the IP Fridays podcast. Brian Buss: Thank you, Ken. I really appreciate the opportunity.

We treat dieting like a reset button. We assume we can wipe the slate clean with a new plan and fresh discipline. But the brain keeps a record. In this episode, we explore the neuroscience of the "Diet Trap" and how chronic restriction creates a "Hunger Highway" that makes food noise louder and willpower weaker. We stop blaming your character and start looking at the engine—specifically, how to shift from a "Red State" of threat to a "Blue State" of safety to finally turn down the noise.Important points discussed:The Willpower Gap: Why you are working twice as hard for half the results compared to ten years ago.The Hunger Highway: How neuroplasticity physically rewires your brain to become efficient at being hungry.Red State vs. Blue State: Understanding why your brain interprets a calorie deficit as a survival threat.The Binge Logic: Why bingeing is not a failure of discipline, but a successful biological rescue mission.Radical Maintenance: The counter-intuitive protocol required to heal the metabolic damage and shut off the alarm bells.Action Step: Stop the deficit. This week, your goal is "Radical Maintenance." Feed your body consistently to convince your brain the famine is over. You cannot rehabilitate a damaged organ while you are still attacking it.
Understanding Negligence Causation in Tort Law: A Deep DiveThis conversation provides a comprehensive breakdown of tort law, focusing on negligence analysis, causation, damages, and special doctrines. It emphasizes the importance of understanding the policy choices behind legal rules and the complexities involved in establishing liability. Key topics include factual and proximate causation, the collateral source rule, emotional distress claims, and the challenges of mass tort litigation. The discussion aims to clarify these concepts for law students and practitioners, highlighting the critical elements necessary for successful legal analysis.In the intricate world of tort law, negligence causation stands as a cornerstone concept, pivotal for both law students and practitioners. This blog post unravels the complexities of causation, offering a clear roadmap through its two main components: factual causation and proximate causation.Factual Causation: The 'But For' TestAt the heart of factual causation lies the 'but for' test, a fundamental principle asking whether the injury would have occurred 'but for' the defendant's actions. This test, while straightforward, can sometimes lead to infinite causal chains, necessitating alternative approaches like the Substantial Factor Test (SFT) in cases with concurrent causes.Proximate Causation: The Scope of LiabilityProximate causation, or legal causation, introduces a policy-driven filter to limit liability. It asks whether the harm was a foreseeable result of the defendant's actions, a concept famously illustrated in the Palsgraf v. Long Island Railroad case. This shift from 'proximate cause' to 'scope of liability' sharpens legal analysis, focusing on the specific risks created by the defendant's conduct.Special Doctrines and Modern ChallengesThe blog also explores special doctrines like alternative liability and market share liability, which address evidential uncertainties in complex cases. Additionally, it delves into the controversial collateral source rule, highlighting its impact on damages and the ongoing debate over its fairness and economic implications.The Bigger PictureUltimately, understanding negligence causation in tort law is not just about mastering legal tests and doctrines. It's about recognizing the legal system's broader goal of achieving social fairness, balancing factual findings with equitable outcomes.Subscribe now to stay updated on the latest insights in tort law and beyond.TakeawaysThe goal here is clarity.Causation is the link itself.Proximate cause is the policy-driven filter.The collateral source rule is deeply controversial.Negligent infliction of emotional distress is evolving.Mass torts are a different beast altogether.The harm must match the risk.The single most common mistake on a torts exam is mixing up causation types.Tort law is about achieving social fairness.Understanding policy choices is key to tort law.tort law, negligence, causation, damages, collateral source rule, emotional distress, mass torts, legal responsibility, liability, law education

Notes: Contract Law Exam Ready GuideUnderstanding Contract Law Remedies: Expectation, Reliance, and RestitutionThis conversation delves into the intricacies of contract remedies, focusing on the primary types: expectation, reliance, and restitution. It emphasizes the importance of compensation over punishment in contract law, exploring the limitations on damages, special rules under the UCC, and the concept of equitable remedies. The discussion provides a comprehensive framework for understanding how damages are calculated and the legal principles that govern them, making it essential for law students preparing for exams.In the realm of contract law, understanding remedies is crucial for both students and practitioners. The primary goal of contract remedies is compensation, not punishment, aiming to place the non-breaching party in the position they would have been if the contract had been performed as promised. Let's delve into the three main types of remedies: expectation, reliance, and restitution.Expectation Damages: The Default RemedyExpectation damages are the most common remedy, designed to give the injured party the benefit of the bargain. This involves calculating the value of what was promised minus what was actually received, adding any incidental or consequential losses, and subtracting any costs avoided due to the breach. This forward-looking approach ensures the injured party receives the future they were promised.Reliance Damages: Looking BackwardWhen expectation damages are too speculative, reliance damages come into play. This remedy aims to restore the injured party to their pre-contract position by reimbursing expenses incurred in reliance on the contract. It's particularly useful in cases where future profits are uncertain, such as new business ventures.Restitution: Preventing Unjust EnrichmentRestitution shifts the focus from the injured party's loss to the breaching party's gain. This remedy ensures that the breaching party does not unfairly benefit from the contract. It's especially relevant in scenarios where the market value of the work done exceeds the contract price, allowing the non-breaching party to recover the reasonable value of their services.Key Limitations and ConsiderationsContract law also imposes limitations on these remedies, including foreseeability, certainty, and the duty to mitigate damages. These constraints ensure that damages are reasonable and justifiable. Additionally, the Uniform Commercial Code (UCC) provides specific rules for the sale of goods, emphasizing real-world mitigation strategies.In conclusion, understanding these remedies and their limitations is essential for navigating contract law effectively. Whether you're preparing for an exam or dealing with a real-world contract dispute, mastering these concepts will equip you with the tools needed to achieve fair compensation.Subscribe now to stay updated on the latest insights in contract law.TakeawaysThe goal of contract remedies is compensation, not punishment.Expectation damages aim to put the injured party in the position they would have been in if the contract had been performed.Reliance damages restore the status quo ante, reimbursing expenses incurred in reliance on the contract.Restitution focuses on preventing unjust enrichment of the breaching party.Damages must be proven with reasonable certainty; speculation is not enough.The injured party has a duty to mitigate their losses after a breach.The Lost Volume Seller doctrine allows sellers to recover lost profits even after reselling goods.Specific performance is an equitable remedy used when money damages are inadequate.Liquidated damages clauses must be reasonable estimates of potential losses, not penalties.contract law, remedies, expectation damages, reliance damages, restitution, UCC, equitable remedies, legal principles, compensation, breach of contract

Garth Heckman The David Alliance TDAgiantSlayer@Gmail.com Mark 7:13 13 And so you cancel the word of God in order to hand down your own tradition. And this is only one example among many others.” Colossians 2:8 8 Don't let anyone capture you with empty philosophies and high-sounding nonsense that come from human thinking and from the spiritual powers of this world, rather than from Christ. 9 For in Christ lives all the fullness of God in a human body. 10 So you also are complete through your union with Christ, who is the head over every ruler and authority. If you become captured by empty philosophies bad things happen? Notice the way this verse states it… you allow yourself to get captured. How… you quit staying vigilant - you quit seeking the voice of God. You fail to realize that the best way an enemy captures you is not with Bombs and bullets but by voices of compromise. When you listen to compromising voices what happens? Fosters Complacency: Relying on the voices in your circle - be it social media, politicians, friends… etc… erodes motivation to increase in intimacy. Hinders Personal Growth: It traps people in comfort zones - what do I mean? One of the keys of knowing Gods voice is that it grows in clarity, focus and detail. But we don't need to grow or act as disciples if we choose the voices outside of the Holy Spirit. Damages your soul with a lack of joy from obedience, testimonies and will ultimately produce a spirit of comparison that will rob you further. Now if it is you that is canceling the word of God you are doing so at the peril of practicing idolatry. You have set yourselves up as God.
Rose Byrne (If I Had Legs I Would Kick You, Damages, Neighbors) is an Emmy Award-nominated actor. Rose joins the Armchair Expert to discuss being rejected from every drama school she applied to in Australia, not having the confidence to discern between early roles, and whether she identifies as a people pleaser. Rose and Dax talk about playing the straight man in Bridesmaids, getting into a loose comedic rhythm with longtime collaborator Seth Rogan, and her improv baptism by fire making Get Him to the Greek. Rose explains how much she enjoys seeing a comedic actor do a dramatic part, accepting as she gets older that we all need to dance around the apartment more, and throwing herself deeply into her grueling new film If I Had Legs I Would Kick You.Follow Armchair Expert on the Wondery App or wherever you get your podcasts.
