After MGD purchased the property, the learned that it had been under lease to the United States government during World War II for use as a bombing range. Although the lease had expired years before the purchase, MGD discovered that the remnants of bombs were still on the property. Because of the potential hazards from the bombs, officials in Tangipahoa Parish, Louisiana refused to issue permits to develop a residential subdivision on the property. MGD filed a claim with its title insurer because the land could not be sold because the title was unmarketable and the land could not be used for its intended purpose. Is the title insurer liable for a defect in title? Why or why not? Please explain. MGD Partners Ltd. Liability Corp v. First American Title Ins. Co. 440 Fed. Appx. 368, 2011 WL 3962568 (5th Circ. 2011).
Compare and contrast qualitative and quantitative. For each approach, discuss: 1) What are the strengths and weaknesses of this approach? 2) What major research questions can this approach address? 3) What is the type of sampling and the data that is collected? 4) Find a journal article that uses this approach and discuss. 5) How does mixed methods approach bridge the gaps? When is it appropriate? Supporting Materials Privacy of Patient Medical Information There is an important issue to understand as you develop data collection plans. According to HIPAA, all individual patient information is private. See https://www.hhs.gov/ocr/privacy/hipaa/understanding/summary/index.html for a summary of these rules. You can not get a list of patients from providers. The way this can be done is for the provider to ask the patient for written permission for you to contact. All of these steps must be approved by the IRB of the organizations. Although this makes our work more difficult, think about what it would mean if researchers had access to all your health information
