Wal-Mart Stores, Inc.(found in the Discussion Board Assignments 1-4 folder in CourseContent in Blackboard), set forth in your own words a summary ofthe court's ruling based on the facts and each of the legal issuesin the case, which you have previously summarized. You should writea separate paragraph (at least) for the court's analysis of each ofthe separate issues that were identified in Discussion Board #2.The court's ruling can be found on page 5, paragraphs 21-23, andpage 8, paragraphs 38-44 of the opinion. However, you shouldre-read the entire opinion before beginning this assignment. Do notcopy the language of the case opinion. Use the full court opinion,not the abridged opinion in the book.
