POS 282--Introduction to American Law
In class today, Tuesday 12/7, I distributed two handouts: one an excerpt from the Maine Rules of Civil Procedure regarding discovery sanctions, and the other an excerpt from the Maine Rules of Evidence regarding the rules of privilege. I went over one Maine Supreme court case regarding discovery sanctions, St. Paul Insurance v. Hays, 2001 ME 71, and one regarding religious privilege, Fortin v. Roman Catholic Bishop of Maine, 2005 ME 57. We discussed the Libby, Richmond and Cody cases from the text. We will pick up Thursday with the (previously-assigned) Bunch case on p. 218. The additional reading for Thursday 12/9 is to read through p. 235 of the text. The test on Tuesday 12/14 at 2:45 will cover from the last exam through Thursday's reading. (I also cautioned the class that I do not plan to bring extra copies of all the handouts to the exam, so that everyone should make sure that they have a complete set of handouts by the end of Thursday's class.)
