POS 282--Introduction to American Law
In class today, Tuesday 11/11, I returned the Zorn case briefs, and we went over them. I distributed 2 handouts, one the Zorn comment key, and the other Maine statues regarding civil juries and the Maine long-arm statute. I went over four cases, two about the definition of subject-matter jurisdiction (Landmark Realty v. Leasure and Bowles v. Russell) and two about personal and subject matter jurisdiction in Maine regarding divorces etc. (Hawley v. Murphy and VonSchack v. VonSchack). We also discussed the Edwards case from the text. The assignment for Thursday November 13 is to read and prepare to discuss the remainder of Chapter 4 of the text.
CMJ 375--Mass Media Law
In class today, Tuesday, 11/11, we went over some of the concepts that you will need to incorporate into your "Blethen" paper, including my request that you specifically identify the particular paragraph number in the Blethen decision from which you are deriving your information. We discussed the Favish case from the text and the Reporter's Committee case from the casebook. I went over two Maine cases, Guy Gannett v. University of Maine, and Blethen v. Portland School Committee. The assignment for Thursday 11/13 is to write the paper that was assigned last Thursday.
