All cases need to be accessed via standard print or web sources. Brief and present all opinions.
Look over the selections, and then email me your top three choices; I will assign cases on a first-come, first-served basis. If you have not selected a case by Friday, 4 September, I will select one for you. (In that eventuality, you better hope that our interests coincide. Otherwise....)
**Every student should email me (or bring by my office on a disk) a copy of their brief at least one class day before s/he presents her/his case to the class. Late briefs will be penalized as indicated in the syllabus.
***If you are presenting a case that is
excerpted in our texts, you must read and brief it from a full text source (published full opinions in text or web sources).
