Read the following scenario and answer the question in 5-10 sentences.
You are the manager of a restaurant in Ohio. Your boss, the regional manager, just called you in to her office and told you that one of your customers has accused one of your hostesses of sexual harassment. Your boss does know a friend who owns a restaurant in Florida who was sued in a similar circumstance and lost. Your boss is worried that this customer might sue but does not want to spend the money on an attorney just yet. To help your boss understand how your case might be different from her friend’s case, explain the different types of legal authority that an Ohio court may use to decide a suit against your company and how the Florida case may or may not impact that decision.
