business visitor

Read a random definition: pecune

A quick definition of business visitor:

A business visitor is someone who is allowed to enter or stay on someone else's property for a reason related to the owner's business. This person may also be a non-U.S. citizen with a B-1 visa, which lets them work in the United States.

A more thorough explanation:

A business visitor is a person who is invited or allowed to enter someone else's property for a purpose related to the owner's or possessor's business. This term can have different meanings depending on the context:

In tort law, a business visitor is someone who is invited or permitted to enter or stay on someone else's property for a reason that is directly or indirectly related to the owner's or possessor's business dealings. For example, a customer who enters a store to buy something is a business visitor. The owner or possessor of the property has a duty to take reasonable care to ensure that the property is safe for business visitors, and can be held liable for injuries or damages that result from their negligence.

In immigration law, a business visitor is a non-U.S. citizen who has a B-1 visa, which allows them to enter the United States for a temporary period of time for business purposes. This can include attending meetings, negotiating contracts, or conducting research. However, a B-1 visa holder is not allowed to work in the United States, except in certain limited circumstances.

An example of a business visitor in tort law would be a customer who enters a store to buy something. The store owner has a duty to ensure that the store is safe for customers, such as by cleaning up spills or fixing broken stairs. If the owner fails to take reasonable care and a customer is injured as a result, the owner could be held liable for the customer's injuries.

An example of a business visitor in immigration law would be a foreign executive who comes to the United States to attend a business conference. The executive would need a B-1 visa to enter the country, and would be allowed to stay for a limited period of time to conduct business activities. However, the executive would not be allowed to work in the United States, such as by taking a job with a U.S. company.

@texaslawhopefully: Not necessarily but I believe what Aristotle used to say. He used to say you could not have a functioning political system if you can not get gender relations right. Or essentially that.
KS does negotiate! I got an email saying theyre doing it for the first time this year
its rather limited but its not nothing

@HopefullyInLawSchool: noted, thanks for the intel. I know we joke around but all things conidered, KS is goated

@BigStrongBug: Nah aristotle only applies gender as a role which I think either sex could fulfill. My issue with Trump's EO to limit things to only sex but I am fine with him doing it for now.
Yeah and Aristotle old as hell boy he would’ve died of hysteria after learning what the internet and tiktok is

@SplitterusClitterus: I think some school shootings could have been prevented if gender relations were better.
Very few of any,, none come to my mind tbh

@SplitterusClitterus: Well, I would say almost every one of them. Either due to more stable households, community connections or even better treatment of those going through divorced and whatnot. Almost every shooter has at least one of these elements included with their reasons for killing.

@Dkk: No. Aristotle said the family was the fundamental political unit, which is different than what you're saying. But, more to the point, the American political system exists vis-a-vis to 17/18th century political thought, or classical liberalism. Of which the central assumption is that the highest end is social choice.

@Dkk: Yes, and he never said what you said he said. The closest he gets to that is that the family is the fundamental political unit.
