Your law firm (located texas), Wright and Wrong, Attorneys at Law, has just advised that our client, Ally, was in an accident while driving to her home from our law firm.
According to Ally, the other car hit her car on the passenger side front door. The driver of the other car is from Arizona. According to the police report, Jackson Maine claims that Ally entered the intersection of Shallow Road and 18th Avenue when the traffic light was red. Jackson acknowledges that the front of his car hit the passenger side of Ally’s car.
The accident occurred on April 1 of last year at 6:00 pm. The traffic lights were working properly.When the accident occurred, Ally was traveling east, and Jackson was traveling north.
Ally claims that, upon impact, she fractured two bones in her left hand (the metacarpal bones: thumb and index fingers). While the fracture has healed, her fingers are stiff, and she has trouble holding objects in her left hand. She is left-hand dominant. Ally’s head hit the driver’s side window upon impact. She suffered a concussion and still experiences headaches, hearing loss, and balance problems.
Ally believes that Jackson is responsible for her injuries. The accident occurred in your home state.
You are meeting with Ally to prepare a complaint against Jackson. A partner at the law firm has asked you to prepare a memo (review page 22 of our APUS Legal Studies Writing Guide for the memo format) addressing the following:
What additional questions or information do you want to obtain from Ally?
Using Nexis Uni, research the law in your home state (not commercial websites) and explain what laws, if any, Jackson or Ally may have violated.

Find a case (in texas) that sets forth the four elements required to establish negligence.
What Rule of Civil Procedure in your home state addresses the filing of a complaint? How is service accomplished, and how many days does the Defendant have to answer the complaint? Again, be sure to set forth the Rules of Civil Procedure in your home state that address these issues.
Draft a complaint on behalf of Ally.
