The case is also attached to this assignment.
The case brief will be graded on the rubric in the student resources section under case brief. Please carefully review the rubric before you start the assignment. Please attach your brief to this assignment as a word document.
By briefing a case, you are reading the entire court opinion then summarizing it into your own words so that the important information from the brief is easier to understand and remember.
Legal case names should be done in standard “Blue Book” format. Example:
York v. Smith, 65 U.S. 294 (1995). For further information see http://www.law.cornell.edu/citation and look under the “How to Cite” section. In addition see the web resource section for this course and click on the folder marked “how to brief a case”.
