BUSINESS LAW
Semester 2- AY 2020/21
In Jamaica, having a legal identity is becoming more and more of a necessity to carry out business with both the private sector and the public sector. Persons are unable to apply for jobs and open bank accounts among other things, as they are undocumented, which further results in them being denied opportunities and possibilities for personal growth and development.
On Tuesday, December 15, 2020, Prime Minister, the Most. Hon. Andrew Holness tabled the National Identification and Registration Bill, 2020, which makes provisions for a voluntary and secure National Identification System (NIDS) for Jamaica. This Bill seeks to establish a National Identification System (NIDS) which will result in the institution of a unique secure method of ascertaining that an individual's identity is genuine. Persons will voluntarily register under the NIDS and will be issued with a National Identification Number (NIN) which will be their unique identifier in the system. Additionally, all information captured through registration for a NIN will be stored in a secure database. The use of a NIN as the primary key will enable interconnectivity of the NIDS database and all records within existing GOJ databases.
Some Jamaicans are very sceptical of this Bill as some persons believe that once this becomes an Act of Parliament, the Government of Jamaica will have their data captured and other information available to use against them, know their every move and take away their right to privacy. Some agree that it should not be mandatory to register and obtain a National Identification Card. Others say that the advantages outweigh the disadvantages and for there to be an efficient operation of NIDS to enable it to meet its objectives, every citizen and ordinary resident of Jamaica must be mandated to be registered.

The Warren family signed an exclusive real estate listing agreement with Detlefsen real estate brokerage to sell their property. The agreement provided that the Warren's were obligated to pay a commission of 5% of the sales price if they sell the property to any person during the term of the exclusive listing agreement. The term of the agreement was six months long running from January 1 of the year through June 30th. Detlefsen marketed the property and secured several offers with the highest offer being $700,000 from Ivy Jones which the Warren's agreed to on May 30th of that year. This sales contract had a provision that in the event of default by the Warren's Ivy Jones only recourse would be a refund of her $10,000 deposit. Subsequently, a friend of the Warren's, Zaine Johnson a person unknown to Detlefsen, found out the Warrens were selling the property and offered to buy it for $800,000. The Warren's thus, subsequently cancelled the sales contract to Ivy Jones and returned her $10,000. They then waited until July 1, after the term of their exclusive contract with Detlefsen had lapsed and signed a written agreement to see the property to Zaine Johnson. Does the Warren family owe any brokers fee to Detlefsen for the sale of the property? Why or why not? If a fee is owed what should it be based on the $700,000 sales price or the $800,000 sales price? Discuss.
