Taking a Twirl on the Big Stage

November 20, 2009 at 10:19 am by: Matt Rita

Litigation Value: $0. For the second week running, our favorite paper company largely avoided any obvious liability on the employment law front. In fact, Dunder Mifflin may have a (nominal) claim of its own against Michael Scott and his road-tripping entourage, based on their unauthorized limousine frolic.

Belles, Bourbon, Bullets & Bankruptcy

November 13, 2009 at 12:48 am by: Jody Ward-Rannow

Litigation Value: $0. Shockingly no one did anything illegal in this episode. Dunder Mifflin suffered a full day’s lost productivity due to Corporate’s poor handling of the bankruptcy situation.

Double Trouble

November 6, 2009 at 9:20 am by: Jaclyn West

Litigation Value: up to $5,000-7,500 to settle Erin’s sexual harassment claim; $2,000 for sexual harassment training (again); up to $10,000 to settle with Michael for failing to protect him from Pam’s slap … and Pam might be spending some of her own money on defending against Michael’s battery claim.
