POS 282 INTRODUCTION TO AMERICAN LAW
In class today, Thursday 11/17, I distributed two handouts: an excerpt from the Supreme Court case of Obergefell v. Hodges, and an excerpt of Maine jurisdictional statutes. Regarding Full Faith and Credit, we discussed Obergefell, and I also went over two recent Supreme Court cases, California v. Hyatt and V.L. v. E.L. We then went over the concept of subject-matter jurisdiction and the textbook case of Cheap Escape. I talked about two other subject matter jurisdiction cases, the Maine Supreme Court case of Landmark Realty v. Leasure and the U.S. Supreme Court case of Bowles v. Russell. The assignment for Tuesday 11/22 is to read the handouts, review Swoboda v. Hero Decks (previously assigned) and to read in addition through p. 140 ((St. James v. Coinmach).
