POS 282 INTRODUCTION TO AMERICAN LAW
In class today, Thursday 10/13, I distributed one handout, the comment key to explain my notations on your Jones case briefs. I returned those case briefs. We did an in-class sample test in preparation for next Tuesday's test. We finished going over the Maine Use of Force statute, and we discussed Suggs v. Norris, as far as the issue of whether public policy forbids the enforcement of a contract in which the parties are engaged in a sexual relationship. On Tuesday 11/18 we'll have Exam #1. open-book and open-note. If you're using a laptop or other device, remember that you can't connect to the internet or do any other function that is not available to those who have a hard copy of the text. If you are missing any handouts, you must notify me by 8:00 p.m. on Monday 10/17 if you want me to bring you the missing handout.
