Julius works as an attendant for the New York Smokies professional basketball team. Julius was given explicit directions not to allow anyone onto the court, regardless of the situation. The Smokies team doctor is absent due to illness, and the other usual medical personnel (both teams' trainers) are unavailable as they have just gone to the locker room to treat two injured players; suddenly, a third player passes out. The player is unconscious, and the game comes to a sudden halt. Three fans - a primary care physician, a registered nurse, and an EMT (Emergency Medical Technician) rush down to the scene, and Julius recognizing that these three persons are there to take care of the player - lets them onto the court. It turns out the player had fainted from an unknown heart problem and needed emergency aid. The three medical specialists revived the player, and he was transported to a hospital for tests, treatment, and a full recovery. The Smokies, though, decide to fire Julius for allowing people onto the court. Is the firing justified? O Yes, Julius broke a clause in his contract that forbids him from allowing people on the court. No, Julius worked courtside and allowing who came on and off the court was fully within his discretion. O Yes, Julius has no say on the matter because the Smokies have an explicit clause for all their employees making sure they do not let people on the court. O No, this was an emergency and the player needed assistance. O Yes, they gave Julius explicit instructions not to allow anyone on the court.
