POS 282--Intro. to American Law
In class today, Monday 4/23, we went over the concepts of the homework assignment. I distributed a handout of selected Maine Rules of Court. I also talked about three Maine Supreme Court opinions regarding appropriate sanctions for violations of the Rules of Procedure. The assignment for Monday 4/30 is to read Chapter 10 of the text regarding criminal procedure. In addition, please read last year's U.S. Supreme Court case of Hudson v. Michigan. The Medill article about the case can be found at

and the Supreme Court Opinion can be found at
