POS 282--Introduction to American Law
In class today, Thursday 11/11, I distributed one handout, a set of federal and Maine statutes regarding juries, long-arm statutes, and full faith and credit for gay marriages. The class chose to do another case brief as our third written assignment. I'll plan on distributing that assignment on Tuesday 11/16, with a due date of Tuesday 11/23 (the class before Thanksgiving).
We finished our discussion of conflict of laws by going over the Maine contract case of Schroeder v. Rynel. Then we discussed the Full Faith and Credit clause by looking at the federal and Maine same-sex marriage statutes, and going over the Karstetter case from the text. We will launch into Chapter 4 of the text next week. The assignment for Tuesday 11/16 is to read through p. 173 of the text.
