POS 282--Introduction to American Law
In class today, Thursday 12/10, we first went over the Maine exemptions statute that was distributed on Tuesday. I discussed two bankruptcy cases that interpreted that Maine statute, in re Grindal, 30 B.R. 651, and in re MacLeod, 295 B.R. 1. We then went on to Chapter VI of the text, and covered the Sullivan and Padilla cases that had been assigned. I also discussed one additional case regarding the concept of "standing", Massachusetts v. E.P.A., 549 U.S. 497 (2007).

The exam will be in our regular classroom on Tuesday, from 5:30 to 6:45, open book and open note, same format as the first exam. It will cover the material since our first exam.
