POS 282--Introduction to American Law
In class today, Thursday 12/9, I distributed one handout, the excerpt from the Maine Human Rights Act regarding the award of damages. We discussed the Bunch case, and then looked at how the Maine statute deals with limitations on damages for discrimination. We then discussed the Sullivan case on p. 232 regarding "standing", and I also went over the standing portion of Massachusetts v. EPA, 549 US 497. Our exam will be from 2:45-4:00 on Tuesday, and will cover through the Sullivan case. The exam is open-book and open-note.
As I previously wrote in this blog and explained in class, I do not plan to distribute extra copies of handouts at the exam. If you feel that you should get a handout that you missed (from today, for example) you must e-mail me with that request by Monday night. If there is an emergency that makes you unable to take the exam when scheduled, you must e-mail me as soon as possible to explain the problem, and (if you have a good reason for missing the exam) we can work out an alternative time.
