Course Descriptions


 

Law

  
  • LAW 861 Supreme Court Seminar (3 credits)


    Prerequisite(s): Approval from Associate Dean Rosenthal is required. Students must provide résumés to the Associate Dean.
    This course will focus on between 9 and 12 cases currently before the United States Supreme Court. The course will also consider several other high-profile cases percolating in the lower federal courts with high probablity of reaching the Supreme Court.

    This is how the seminar will work: Each student will select one current Supreme Court Justice to impersonate for the entire semester. Before each class, students will review the briefs in the case assigned for that week and any writings by their respective Justice on the subject area. During class, students will discuss the case as the Justices would in their private conference. The students will then vote on the case. During the course of the seminar, each student will produce at least one majority opinion, one concurrence, and one dissent. The course will be for three credits and will focus on effective advocacy and opinion writing. The hope for the course is that the students will learn several interesting areas of the law, gain insight into the way judges think so as to become better advocates, and learn effective brief-writing techniques. Students will also have the opportunity to hear from a seasoned Supreme Court advocate during one of the class meetings.

  
  • LAW 865 Effective Legal Analysis (0 credits)


    The purpose of these sessions is to build on critical skills necessary to success in law school, on the bar exam, and in the practice of law.  Various hands-on activities will help you master skills such as careful reading, issue spotting, structuring an answer, managing time, balancing the analysis of a close question, and taking both multiple choice and essay tests.  Although everyone is welcome to attend, students on academic warning must register as well.  You must register for and attend the section designated to your division in school.  If you are required to participate in ELA, you must arrange your course and work schedules around the scheduled section for your division.

    For ELA II, You must register for the same ELA II section as your Con Law section because that course is used as the substantive basis for the skills instruction.

    Effective Legal Analysis I is limited to first-year students, who must sign up in the division-day or evening-in which they take the majority of their doctrinal classes.  Effective Legal Analysis III is limited to part-time students in their fourth semester, but one section accommodates students in the day and evening divisions.

    Pass/Fail course.

  
  • LAW 869 Semester in Practice (4-12 credits)


    The Semester in Practice Program is a field-based external clinic in which students apprentice (without pay) with lawyers in all areas of practice or in judicial chambers. The SIP provides an opportunity - through observation, participation, practice, and reflection - to improve students’ legal knowledge and skills and to inform and expand their vision of what the practice and profession of law can be. The overarching goal of the SIP Program is to provide opportunities for students to develop lawyering skills, learn substantive law, and engage in critical reflection about the legal profession, their legal career, and their priorities and values as lawyers and individuals through supervised field experiences and the contemporaneous seminar.

The course will be led by Attorney Al Weisbrod, who will act as a mentor. Mr. Weisbrod was involved as trial counsel in each of the cases from which the facts have been derived for this course. If the students and the mentor work together as planned, at the end of this course, the students’ knowledge of Torts, Contracts, Federal and Civil Procedure, and Evidence will have been enhanced.

We will read three books (with a total cost less than a typical casebook) for, against and about originalism. We will debate the relation of originalism and its main competition - living constitutionalism (the theory that constitutional meaning evolves over time) and we will also apply originalism to important constitutional provisions and controversies.

  • LAW 933 Inter-School Competition (ABA Tax Competition) (1 credit)


    Prerequisite(s): Permission of the instructor.
    An alternative to traditional moot court competitions, the ABA Law Student Tax Challenge asks two-person teams of students to solve a cutting-edge and complex business problem that might arise in everyday tax practice. Teams are initially evaluated on two criteria: a memorandum to a senior partner and a letter to a client explaining the result. Based on the written work product, six teams receive a free trip (including airfare and accommodations for two nights) to the Section of Taxation Midyear Meeting, where each team will defend its submission before a panel of judges consisting of the country’s top tax practitioners and government officials, including tax court judges. The competition is a great way for law students to showcase their knowledge in a real-world setting and gain valuable exposure to the tax law community. Further competition information can be found here.

    The competition problem is usually distributed in late August, the memorandum and client letter is due to be submitted in early November and, if selected, the team will be invited to defend its submission sometime the following January. Please contact Prof. Nacev if you have any questions or if you are interested.

  
  • LAW 933 Inter-School Competition (Appellate Advocacy/Moot Court) (1-2 credits)

Students must receive approval from the Moot Court Board faculty Advisor to enroll in this course.
  
  • LAW 933 Inter-School Competition (Client Counseling) (2 credits)


    In conjunction with students’ participation in the ABA Client Counseling Competition, this course addresses the practical, legal, and ethical dimensions of initial interviews with prospective clients.
  
  • LAW 934 International Law (3 credits)


    International law is a three-credit course for upper class students. This course will introduce the student to public international law, including the creation and enforcement of treaties, the role of custom, the efficacy of international institutions (e.g., courts and non-governmental organizations), the legality of using force, and the act of state doctrine. Class meetings will include lecture, discussion and group exercise. (Students will solve problems as purported members of the United States National Security Council and the United Nations Security Council; and resolve legal disputes between nations as purported justices of the International Court of Justice.) Each class will involve ample use of technology, e.g., PowerPoint presentations and film clip viewings.
  
  • LAW 935 Interviewing, Counseling, and Negotiating (3 credits)


    This course emphasizes the development of skills required of lawyers in interviewing clients, witnesses, and others to obtain relevant information; counseling clients; and negotiating such matters as case settlements and contracts. Role playing, simulation and videotaping will be used in this course.
  
  • LAW 936 Jurisprudence (3 credits)


    Jurisprudence is a legal philosophy seminar. It studies general questions such as the nature of law, the relation between law and morality, and how judges should go about deciding individual cases, as well as more specific and controversial topics in areas as diverse as constitutional law and torts. Instead of using a casebook, we will read several important original works of Anglo-American legal philosophy written since 1960. The book cost and total pages assigned will be comparable to a course with a casebook. Jurisprudence is a seminar, so there is a course paper (which can satisfy the AWR-Research component), but there is no final exam. Papers may be written on any topic or author we cover in class or any area reasonably related to course topics and authors. There are no prerequisites for this course and no background in philosophy is necessary. Since Jurisprudence is not a bar course, some students wonder what practical use this course can be to them as future lawyers.
