 North-West Frontier Province, Pakistan - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The North-West Frontier Province (NWFP) is the smallest of the four provinces of Pakistan and is home to the Pashtuns (Afghans) and various other groups.
The province has an area of 74,521 km² and its districts include Hazara (not to be confused with the Hazara people of Afghanistan), home to the town of Havelian, the western starting point of the Karakoram Highway.
The Frontier Post is perhaps the province's best known newspaper and addresses many of the various issues facing the local population.

 Frontier Refining v. Gorman-Rupp Co.   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
Frontier and its liability insurers settled the Torres claim for $8.25 million, the Vowles claim for $6.75 million, and the Elsisie claim for $3.50 million.
To recover on its indemnity claim, Frontier therefore had to prove that Gorman-Rupp's pump caused the fire and explosion which created claims against Frontier and that the settlements were reasonable and made in good faith to discharge its actual or potential liability to the burn victims.
Frontier's failure to appeal the magistrate's ruling to the district court precludes it from raising the issue on appeal to this court.

 OSCN Found Document:HAWZIPTA v. IND. SCHOOL DIST. NO. I-004 OF NOBLE CO.
The first time District alleged the involvement of the students in the dumpster search for the pornographic material to be an additional basis for the termination is found in District's appellate brief in chief.
District deemed Teacher guilty of moral turpitude because Teacher allegedly knew the statements he was making about Principal's alleged purchase and disposal of the pornographic material were false, yet he continued to publish those statements to third parties.
District did not prove that Teacher was presented with the exculpatory confession of A.S. or other similar evidence, and was therefore on notice that Teacher's earlier belief was now either discredited or otherwise suspect, yet continued to publish that suspect information to the detriment of Principal.

The Frontier adherents of the Muslim League fell upon the handful of Hindus and Sikhs with the primitive fanaticism characteristic of the Muslims of this area.
In the Frontier Province, notwithstanding the genuine and heroic efforts of the Congress Ministry under Dr. Khan Sahib to stem the tide of communal warfare, it was discovered that the plot of the Muslim League and the British officers was so deep laid that no efforts to stop these attacks were of any avail.
Qazi Ataullah Khan, Revenue Minister of the Frontier Province, in a statement threw a flood of light on the widespread organized and co-ordinated way in which the Muslim Leaguers were carrying on a parallel campaign of harassement and elimination of the minorities in the Punjab and the Frontier Province.

 Handbook of Texas Online: FRONTIER ORGANIZATION
Concern for the protection of the frontier played a major role in deliberations of the Tenth Legislature in late 1863, as state officials hesitated to transfer the Frontier Regiment to the Confederacy without assuring the best protection possible for the frontier counties.
The act defined the frontier line and the fifty-nine organized frontier counties of Texas; it also instructed Governor Murrah to divide the designated counties into three districts and to appoint a suitable man with the rank of major of cavalry to take charge of the organization of mounted companies within the district.
The major of each district was to require that one-fourth of his men, on a rotation basis, be in service at any one time.

 The US Navy and Hawaii: The War Years
In spite of this seeming tendency on the part of the District Supply Officer to "run things" even though his office was nominally that of advisor to the District Commandant, the weight of evidence would indicate that he did not interfere with intra-departmental operations, but rather confined his action to coordinating inter-activity affairs and relationships.
Although all of the air stations and facilities within the district were under the Commandant of the District in respect to physical plant, the actual task of supplying the squadrons based thereon with the aviation material was under the cognizance of ComAirPac [Commander, Air Force, Pacific Fleet].

 96-8014 -- Frontier Refining Inc. v. Gorman-Rupp Co. Inc. -- 02/13/1998
Furthermore, for many of the same reasons that preserved the attorney-client privilege, namely that information regarding the reasons for and reasonableness of the settlement was available elsewhere, Gorman-Rupp failed to establish a substantial need for the work product and undue burden if the protected materials were not disclosed.
The district judge presiding over this case has a relative who was then an attorney with Holland and Hart.
This court has reviewed the materials in question and agrees that, without regard to whether the admission of the evidence was prejudicial, no jury could legitimately rely on the privileged evidence to conclude that Gorman-Rupp's pump was or was not the cause of the explosion.
