1. Basic legal principles in the area of law

2. Major historical cases

3. Current Issue (opportunity to explore a recent new law, court case, legal question, etc. pertaining to the area of law that is of interest to you)

While I want you, as writers/presenters, to become experts in order to answer peer questions based on your paper, you will not be able to incorporate all of the information that you find. This is a broad strokes introduction to your assigned topic of law. Your ORIGINAL paper should contain the major highlights of the area of law with an analysis of a specific/current aspect of your assigned type of law that is most interesting to you. As a starting place, I have provided reading materials for each topic.

Please Note: You will need to do some additional research, in order to discuss a current issue, especially. I have also provided a few resource links in angel that may be useful.
