Need Help in Business Law?

Question by SKA=<3: Need help in business law?
Can anyone answer this question? I need to know why and from where the answer came from.

Mcl aughlin injured his back while working as a lumberjack. He became
addicted to pain killers during treatment for the injury. He was then treated for
the addiction three times, but never stopped using the drug. When he moved to
Indiana, he sought treatment for his back injury and obtained a prescription for the
pain killer. He filled the prescription much faster than prescribed. In one 60-day
period he received 24 refills, filled 12 times, meaning that McLaughlin or his wife
was at the pharmacy every two to three days. When his doctor discovered the
misuse, he refused to prescribe more. McLaughlin became depressed as a result
of withdrawal and attempted suicide. He sued the pharmacy, claiming it had a
duty to stop filling the prescription because the pharmacist knew or should have
known that McLaughlin was consuming the drug so quickly that it was a threat to
his health. Is he correct?

How to Give Up Parental Rights to an Adopted Child?

Question by ”Camera~Ready”: How to give up parental rights to an adopted child?
Here’s the thing, my parents adopted my little brother about 8yrs ago, he was placed with us as a kid because my mom was a foster parent. He is now 17 1/2 yrs old. He was aloud by the courts to see his biological mom while growing up (when she wasn’t in jail or rehab) but at one point the courts got tired of his mother going in & out of jail & rehab so they permanently took her parental rights. So the court was going to put him in a group home but he was so much a part of our family that my parents decided to adopt him.
