We will select Justices the beginning of the second week of class. An ordinary paper should run at least 8 to 10 pages. Cases cited in Part I should use standard legal citation format. All material in Part II of the opinion should be documented using standard MLA format. A works cited page is mandatory.
Papers are due at the beginning of the court session in which the hypothetical is debated.
They should have a cover page giving your name and the name of the Justice you represent. Fancy covers are not necessary but something to hold the pages together is a must. I will divide you into three groups on these days. You will come only to the group of which you are a part. Because the class will have discussed the material in Court sessions, any paper which is handed in after that discussion will be severely penalized.
