This course will familiarize students with the Minnesota Criminal and Traffic Codes, as well as selected statutes. The course will introduce students to the application of criminal statutes to factual situations and builds directly upon the foundation material presented in the Legal Issues course.
Attendance is vital.
Students are expected to give full attention and to actively participate during in-class discussions and activities that cannot be repeated. If you are absent from the class, it is your responsibility to acquire any notes, handouts, or other materials you may have missed. Should you know in advance that you will miss a class, please notify me in person or by telephone. I do not want to be put in the position of determining the legitimacy or validity of a student's reason for missing a test or turning in a late assignment. Photocopies of the articles must be included.
