POS 282--Introduction to American Law
In class today, Thursday 3/29, we spent the class period going over the Caperton case. I talked about the history of the case and its background, and also the dissenting opinions. On Tuesday 4/3 we will discuss the Gonzales v. Raich case, previously assigned, and also talk about the relationship of the Raich case to this week's argument in the Affordable Care Act (health insurance) case.
POS 359--The Current Supreme Court Term
In class today, Thursday 3/29, I collected the FCC v. Fox papers, and we discussed the predictions for the various Justices. I plan on returning the papers on Tuesday. The assignment for Tuesday 4/3 is to read the oral argument transcript (and listen as well to the audio) in the Tuesday (3/27) Supreme Court argument in the ACA case (DHHS v. Florida). Also, I am soliciting your thoughts about a good topic to address in the paper that you'll be writing about this case.
