Simple English definitions for legal terms

employee pro hac vice

Read a random definition: non-suit

A quick definition of employee pro hac vice:

An employee is a person who works for someone else under a contract. The employer has the right to control how the work is done. A borrowed employee is someone who agrees to work for another employer temporarily. The borrowing employer is responsible for the borrowed employee's actions. A probationary employee is someone who is being evaluated during a trial period of employment. A statutory employee is covered by the employer's workers' compensation insurance and cannot sue the employer for unintentional injuries on the job.

A more thorough explanation:

An employee pro hac vice is a borrowed employee who has given their consent to work for another employer temporarily. The borrowing employer assumes control over the employee's work, and under the doctrine of respondeat superior, they are vicariously liable for the employee's acts. However, the employer may also be entitled to assert immunity under workers'-compensation laws.

For example, if a construction company borrows an electrician from an electrical company to work on a project, the electrician becomes an employee pro hac vice of the construction company. If the electrician causes damage or injury while working on the project, the construction company is responsible for their actions.

Another example is when a restaurant hires a probationary employee to work during a trial period of employment. The probationary employee's ability and performance are being evaluated, and they may become a permanent employee if they meet the employer's expectations.

Statutory employees are workers who are covered, or required to be covered, by the employer's workers'-compensation insurance. They have no independent tort claim against the employer for unintentional injuries suffered on the job. For instance, a delivery driver who is injured while making a delivery for their employer is a statutory employee.

If you do it from the attorney side you will be skirting the left and right limits of laws like the NDAA to conduct domestic espionage or how to kidnap or spy on people in foreign countries without committing war/international crimes. JAG would be very very general and location based. At one unit you can be the personal attorney to a commander not even having your own office or desk, next one you can be leading the prosecution of terrorist and rapist and the next one be the legal OK for drone striking people. It is a very varied job you have little control over.

The last jag I worked with had a folding picnic table as his desk and had to bring his office chair home every night because people would steal it and he hated using a bucket as a seat. All he did was keep commanders from being fired cause they kept doing illegal shit. It is a varied journey.

This is so true. I still have my folding table. I put alcohol on it now and it is my home bar.

For one I would try not asking questions that start with “How do you recommend grooming a child?”
11:06
lol people just have bad connotations with it, is it grooming to have your kid play hockey with you and watch games so they want to play when they turn 6?
Dkk
11:06
@EvolBunny: Maybe, maybe but I think the TBI is better advice.
