USA Brief Raglin HMO Illinois Inc Employment Contract Case Analysis Discussion 1. For this assignment, you will complete a full APA paper covering liability law case analysis. The standard approach for legal analysis is called IRAC for:

ISSUE 2) RULE 3) ANALYSIS 4) CONCLUSION

In doing a brief, you should do the following.

Identify significant legal issue(s) in the case.
For each issue, identify the legal rule that is relevant for that issue
Use the legal rule to then analyze the facts of the case.
In analyzing, break the rule down into different requirements.
Address each requirement of that legal rule.
Use a relevant fact to analyze each requirement.
Then, connect the facts to the rule with an appropriate explanation.
Finally, make a reasonable conclusion based on your analysis.

In analyzing a particular case, one recommended format is the following:

FORMAT FOR BRIEFING CASES

CASE NAME

FACTS: RELEVANT FACTUAL CIRCUMSTANCES OF CASE PROCEDURAL HISTORY
ISSUE(S): LEGAL QUESTIONS THAT COURT IS RESOLVING
DECISION: DECISION OF COURT ON ISSUE(S) RESOLUTION OF CASE
REASONS: RATIONALE FOR DECIDING THE CASE INCLUDE RULE PLUS ANALYSIS LEADING TO CONCLUSION
MANAGERIAL IMPLICATIONS: SIGNIFICANCE OF LAW/CASE TO BUSINESS AND ADMINISTRATION

This format uses the IRAC structure, but it also has

(A) a compilation of relevant facts at the beginning,

(B) the decision of the court whose opinion you are reading, and

(C) managerial implications.

2. Perform IRAC analysis and complete case briefs on the following case:

Raglin v. HMO Illinois, Inc.

The pictures I have included are an example of what it should look like Case: Ennix v. Stanten
Facts
Dr. Coyness Ennix, Jr., is a cardiac surgeon at Alta Bates
Summit Medical Center (ABSMC). He filed a suit against
Russel Stanten, Leigh Iverson, Steven Stanten, William Isenberg
and ABSMC for racial discrimination. After performing a new
surgical procedure on four medical patients, which resulted in
death or complications, the hospital subjected Dr. Ennix to
investigation and temporary revocation of privileges (Perry &
Thompson, 2017). Ennix believes the scrutiny was racially
motivated. However, ABSMC believed there was no grounds for
a contract between their institution and Ennix; as such, racial
discrimination under 42 U.S.C. 1981 cannot be established
(Perry & Thompson, 2017. Dr. Ennix was a member of the
ABSMC medical staff, paid membership fees to Summit
Hospital, agreed to abide by hospital bylaws, and performed
services at ABSMC.
Issue
What is a contract? Did a contract exist between Ennix and
ABSMC?
Decision
The court denied the summary judgment motion filed by
ABSMC.
Reasons
The plaintiff did not have a formal contract with the hospital;
however, the hospital visiting arrangements indicate that a
contractual arrangement did exist between the two entities
especially under Section 1981 (Perry & Thompson, 2017). A
contract can be defined as an agreement between two parties that
meets sufficient legal consideration (Perry & Thompson, 2017).
Ennix was paid membership fees to Summit Hospital, agreed to
abide by hospital bylaws, and performed services at ABSMC.
The hospital referred to the case Dominos Pizza, Inc. v.
McDonald, in which Dominos was found to have no contract in
place with McDonald and as such could not use Section 1981
claim for discrimination (Perry & Thompson, 2017). Yet,
ABSMC agreed to allow Dr. Ennix to practice medicine at their
facilities. ABSMC received payment of hospital fees from Dr.
Ennix relating to his treatment of patients.
Dr. Ennix contends that he had a contractual relationship with
the hospital because he could perform services at their hospital
as well as his contractual relationships with patients to treat
them. He cites Janda v. Madera Community Hospital, where the
court found that an express employment contract has been

Dr. Ennix contends that he had a contractual relationship with
the hospital because he could perform services at their hospital
as well as his contractual relationships with patients to treat
them. He cites Janda v. Madera Community Hospital, where the
court found that an express employment contract has been
formed by the consideration, which consisted of the hospitals
promise to employee doctor, and the doctors promise to work
under those conditions (Perry & Thompson, 2017). In addition,
the hospital granted the doctor medical privileges and use of
hospital resources. The court sided with the plaintiff, Dr. Ennix.
Although Dr. Ennix may not have an expressed contract with the
hospital directly, it was implied through actions. He could
perform and treat patients there and as such, the hospital and Dr.
Ennix mutually benefited. As there was a contract in place, Dr.
Ennix was able to sue for discrimination.
Managerial Implications
Implications remain today that professional relationships could
be deemed contractual, even though it is not in writing. Many
people use contracts to protect both parties. At times, they may
not use contracts, to have some fluidity. However, this belief
may be misled, and an explicit contract may better serve both
parties. Establishing a written contract is always important in the
event that one of the parties has to prove that a contract exists. In
this case, Dr. Ennix did not have a written contract with
ABSMC but did have an implied contract, which is why there
was a motion for summary judgement.
