Permission Forms
Zirkel, Perry A.
Principal, v84 n3 p8-9 Jan-Feb 2005

The legal status of such forms varies, but they are generally considered to be neither rock-solid protection nor legally valueless in terms of immunity. The following case and the accompanying question-and-answer discussion provide specific illustrations of this variance.
