POSA 282--Introduction to American Law
In class today, Tuesday 11/9, I first handed back the Jeremiah T. case briefs. I also distributed two handouts, the case brief comment key, and my own version of the case brief. We then launched into a discussion of conflict of law rules, going over the Hubbard case from p. 140 and the Land case from p. 180. In discussing the Land case, I also went over the two bases of Federal Court jurisdiction, federal question jurisdiction and diversity jurisdiction. I also went over two Maine cases regarding conflict of law rules, Collins v. Trius and Flaherty v. Allstate. The assignment for Thursday, 11/11 is to read through p. 161 of the text.
