     You are an attorney who represents Hagan Plumbing, a business that provides plumbing services to residential and commercial clients in the Evansville area. Daryn Hagan, the owner of Hagan Plumbing, would like some advice from you. Daryn is facing a dilemma with one of his employees named Gerri Jones, who requested time off work recently. Daryn would like you to make a recommendation regarding how he should respond to Gerri’s request for time off work.      Gerri asked Daryn if she can take time off work periodically to care for her daughter, who was recently diagnosed with lung cancer. Gerri wants to be able to take her daughter to various doctors’ appointments and promises to give as much notice as possible of her daughter’s appointments. Gerri is a single mother with two young children. Gerri is a 36-year-old, white female, who has worked for Hagan Plumbing for six months as an administrative assistant answering phones and scheduling customers. Gerri is a hard-working, pleasant employee, who is one of two administrative assistants for the business. Gerri currently works approximately 40 hours per week. Hagan Plumbing currently employs 100 full-time employees. The company’s schedule is busy.
