A landowner granted Blackacre "to my nephew, his heirs and assigns, provided that he is survived by issue of himself and his wife, Sally, but if he dies without issue of Sally and himself, then to the county hospital." The nephew took possession of Blackacre and used it wisely for many years. Unfortunately, Sally died without having had any children. The nephew remarried, and his new wife, a geologist, discovered huge deposits of gold in the northeastern corner of Blackacre.

Does the nephew have the legal right to open a mine to extract gold from Blackacre?

(A) No, because after Sally died childless, the nephew has no further ownership interest in Blackacre.

(B) No, because after Sally died childless, the nephew is only a life tenant of Blackacre.

(C) Yes, because the nephew holds a fee simple determinable.

(D) Yes, because the nephew holds a fee simple defeasible.

An employer who is considering hiring eva has asked donna, eva’s former supervisor, for a report on eva. in truth, eva’s work for donna has been only average. however, eva is donna’s friend, and donna knows that eva probably will not get the job if she says anything negative about eva, and donna knows that eva desperately needs the job. further, donna knows that if the situation were reversed, she would not want eva to mention her deficiencies. nevertheless, it has been donna’s policy to reveal the deficiencies of employees when she has been asked for references by employers, and she knows that some of eva’s faults may be bothersome to this particular employer. finally, this employer has leveled with donna in the past when donna has asked for a report on people who have worked for him. should donna reveal deficiencies in eva’s past performance? (remember to use one of the three moral theories acceptable for this test to solve this dilemma. any discussion of any personal opinion, religious perspective, or theory other than the moral theories acceptable for this test will result in a score of "0" for this question.)
