POS 282--Introduction to American Law
In class today, Tuesday 11/3, I began with news of the final exam date, which is Tuesday 12/15 from 5:30 -7:30 (actually, the exam will just be 75 minutes long, just like the first exam--5:30-6:45). We went over questions about the Flaherty case (case brief due Thursday), and then discussed the Apsey case (p. 132) regarding retroactive v. prospective application of a court decision. I went over a recent Maine Supreme Court decision, Guardianship of Jeremiah T., 2009 ME 74, which discussed retroactive v. prospective application of a change in the Maine statutes. We discussed the Strunk kidney transplant case(p. 136), and began our discussion of the conflict of laws case, Hubbard v. Greeson (p.141). The assignment for Thursday 11/5 is to complete your Flaherty case brief, which is due at the beginning of class on Thursday, and also review the Hubbard case.
