  • Outta The Court, April 9, 2019 - Fighting In Sports
    Court is in Session!
    Criminal lawyers Adam Goodman and Scott Cowan are joined by Barry Davis to discuss teammates fighting, more like infighting.
    The Tonya Harding and Nancy Kerrigan case is explored. What are some of the legalities that never came to the fore? How has a case like theirs influenced modern day precedent?
    In the MLB, the altercation between Jonathan Papelbon and Bryce Harper explores how an injury, if sustained during the row, would be handled by insurance and the team. Would the team be covered by insurance if one teammate injured another?
    CFL Players Angelo Mosca and Joe Kapp got into fracas at a league luncheon. What legal mechanisms were in place on behalf of the league? Did they act accordingly? Something called social host liability is discussed.
    Scott Cowan drops a mind blowing legal bomb about bar fights that sends the trio off into a rabbit hole. Its a great organic conversation that develops.
    The guys finish off with “The British Soccer” riot and how the effects of the riot affected those in the stands. Do the fans have a case, legally, with regards to trauma? Is the soccer club liable?
    Yeah… All that.

    Barry tells a story about couches and veteran players in the clubhouse and how its reserved seating for front liners.
    Its a wonderful chat with a wonderful person.
    The First Pitch:
    The boys discuss the trade of fan favourite Kevin Pillar. Further, they link the trade of Pillar and the contract extension for Randal Grichuk. Is there a correlation with the gamble the Blue Jays took on Jose Bautista and the commitment they’ve made to Grichuk?
    Barry and Matt the Producer outline the ripples the Pillar trade has made through baseball in Canada.
    MLB Player Agent Joshua Kusnick joins the show to discuss the player that the Jays got back in the Pillar trade - Alen Hansen.
    Ask Barry Davis:
    Inevitably, Kevin Pillar features in the Ask Barry Davis segment. Also, does an error allowing a batter to reach 1st base count towards his On Base Percentage?
    The results of the fair or foul poll are revealed.

  • Outta The Court, April 2nd, 2019 - Cheating And Academics
    Court is in Session!
    Criminal lawyers Adam Goodman and Scott Cowan are joined by Barry Davis to shed light on bribery in high end schools.
    Lori Loughlin and Felicity Huffman are involved in a case that implicates their involvement in a “cheating scheme” regarding entrance into ivy league schools. Is there truth to the notion that ivy league alumni beget ivy league alumni?
    The guys discuss who is at fault in this case. Is the school more to blame than parents who were trying to do the best for their children?
    What are the “Legacy Admits?” Adam Goodman explains.
    The trio chat about whether the school was duped into believing that the students accepted into high end educational facilities deserved to be there, thus transferring blame elsewhere.
    What checks and balances are in place for students found cheating on entrance exams?
    The notion that the outrage concerning this story has to do with with wealth of those implicated is discussed.
    Scott discusses something called “The Principle of Contract Loss of Chance” law. Its fascinating.
    What kind of jail time would Ms. Loughlin and Huffman be facing if found guilty?
    All that and more…
