LEG 500 Week 2 Discussion

LEG 500 Week 2 Discussion
Analyze the duty of loyalty in whistleblower case to determine to whom loyalty is owed and shows the greater duty of loyalty. Support your analysis with specific examples. Then suggest at least one change to an existing law. The duty of loyalty in the case of Milton v. IIT Research Institute did not lie upon Dr. Donn Milton. Dr. Milton had no legal duty to his claims of reporting tax fraud to IITRI’s Board of Directors. Dr. Milton was not responsible for correcting IITRI’s tax filings nor did he face potential liability for failing to disclose this information (Halbert & Ingulli, p.48.) Dr. Milton’s job was to supervise administration on a contract between IITR and the federal government called the Tax Systems Modernization Institute (TSMI) (Federal 4th Circuit, 1998.)
