Credit Hours: 3
Instructor(s): Gordon
Course Books: View List of Books

Course Description:
Antitrust Law (or competition law, as it is known outside the United States) represents the most basic form of economic regulation in market-oriented national economic systems. These laws regulate business relationships between competitors, the range of permissible conduct by large or dominant firms, and relationships between firms at different levels in the chain of distribution, all ostensibly to protect consumers. Potential offenses include monopolization, collusion and other agreements (including mergers, acquisitions and joint ventures) in restraint of trade. In recent years, the antitrust laws have become particularly important in industries involving health care, network technologies, the extensive use of intellectual property and generally the question of concentration by the likes of Amazon and Facebook. After an extended time of modest antitrust activity, one of the central questions faced by the new administration is the extent to which it will embrace “hipster antitrust” to these new challenges. This course will explore all these issues.

Course Books: View List of Books

Course Description:
Blockchain and cryptocurrencies are rapidly evolving technologies that are already disrupting the practice and substance of law. The first blockchain, Bitcoin, has become an international sensation as it value skyrockets and plummets. But Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies are just one small corner of blockchain applications – it is also being applied to supply chain management, financial and banking functions, stocks and bonds, property and land deed ownership, wills and estates, health data, and eventually even government functions such as taxation and voting. It is also changing the practice of law, as some new law firms exist wholly on the blockchain, employing a radically different business model for law. This course will familiarize students with the technology behind blockchain, and explore the legal and policy applications and implications of blockchains and cryptocurrencies.

Topics will include fiduciary law, shareholder voting, derivative suits, executive compensation and control transactions. These issues will be most relevant to those students who plan on representing business entities in transactions or litigation, however, it is difficult to overstate the importance of a general knowledge of these topics regardless of the area of law in which one plans to practice. Materials to be announced. No background in business, accounting or finance is required.

Course Description:
The freedom to learn, as Du Bois wrote, “has been bought by bitter sacrifice” and must be perfected and preserved no less than our other prized civil rights. In this seminar, we will consider past and present school reforms aimed at securing equal citizenship and opportunity in the United States. We will study the law of educational equity and adequacy, integration and affirmative action, school discipline, multilingual education, and educational services for students with disabilities. In addition, we will examine the history of American Indian schools and of the common schools movement, and we will analyze more broadly the intersection of diverse educational reforms as well as the tension between universal, uniform schooling and individualized programs. We will approach these topics primarily through cases, statutes and constitutions, book excerpts, and academic journal articles. Evaluation and feedback will be based on class participation, short response papers, and a research paper.

Evidence

SLN #: 79800
Course Prefix: LAW-605
Course Section: 1001
Credit Hours: 3
Instructor(s): Berch
Course Books: View List of Books

Course Description:
Evidence covers the basic rules that govern the admissibility of evidence in civil and criminal trial proceedings. The primary focus is on how the Federal Rules of Evidence operate in practice, with some attention to areas in which the Arizona Rules of Evidence differ from the Federal Rules. The course is taught by the problem method, with occasional simulations designed to illustrate how litigators deal with witness testimony and other forms of evidence at trial. This is a complex and difficult subject, but one that most practicing lawyers -- including non- litigators -- need to know; and it would be an especially tough subject to try to learn from scratch from a bar review course.

• If you take the survey course then you are welcome to take either or both of the separate courses (1st amendment & 14th amendment)

• If you have taken both the separate courses then you may not take the survey course.

The Fourteenth Amendment is at the core of many of our most important and difficult problems: segregation, race discrimination, women’s rights, marriage equality, gender identity, abortion, the right to privacy, the right to vote, and others. The Amendment, and the rights it confers, has shaped the history of the United States. In this class, we will study the law of the Fourteenth Amendment with an emphasis on equal protection, due process, and enforcement. We will also study the complicated ways in which the Amendment has interacted with social movements, federalism, and states’ rights.

Instructor(s): Anozie

Course Description:
Environmental Justice (EJ) “is the fair treatment and meaningful involvement of all people regardless of race, color, national origin, or income, with respect to the development, implementation, and enforcement of environmental laws, regulations, and policies.” Often environmental harms fall heavily on racial minorities, low-income, and indigenous communities. Globally, developing economies bear a large brunt of environmental harm and climate change occasioned by various factors. The course investigates the basis of unequal distribution of environmental goods and harms domestically and globally and why it matters. Using case studies and relevant law, this course takes a comparative look at the disparate impacts of fossil fuel exploration, government regulation, and corporate activity on different population segments, domestically and globally. This course also analyzes the various bases for these disparate impacts and looks for just and fair solutions grounded in law, policy, or practice. Students are expected to discuss current environmental justice initiatives and their efficacy in fixing domestic and global environmental justice issues. Students will make presentations and write a final paper on any current environmental justice issue.

Instructor(s):
Course Books: View List of Books

Course Description:
A student wishing to pursue independent study or fieldwork for credit must obtain approval of the Dean’s designee and the consent of a faculty member to supervise a proposed project. The faculty member assigns the amount of credit that the proposal justifies. In awarding credit to a student for an independent study paper, a faculty member should require a quantum of work from the student which approximates the amount of work expected from students enrolled in a regular course taken for the same number of credits. Faculty members should set minimum lengths for independent study papers based upon the complexity of the subject, the existing volume of literature on the topic, the number of redrafts required to complete the assignment, and the originality of the student's work product. Although exact guidelines cannot be formulated in awarding credit, past practices indicate that generally a paper of approximately 12,500 – 18,750 words, including footnotes, which has been redrafted one or more times after review by the faculty member, will be required for three credits. Generally, a paper of roughly 8,750 – 12,500 words, including footnotes (with one redraft) should be required for two credits, and normally a minimum of 6,250 words, including footnotes (with one redraft), should be required for one credit.

Institutional Misconduct: Bad Actors, Enablers, and the Role of Lawyers

Course Prefix: LAW-791
Course Section: 1015
Credit Hours: 2
Instructor(s): Marchant;Milligan;Stefko
Course Books: View List of Books

Course Description:
Corporations and other clients of attorneys sometimes get involved in major scandals or crises as a result of misconduct or malfeasance. Examples are numerous and include Theranos, Boeing, opiate manufacturers, Enron, tobacco manufacturers, Facebook/Cambridge Analytica, and Uber (sexual harassment). In each of these scandals, inside and outside lawyers unfortunately played a contributing role in allowing and trying to cover-up the misconduct. This seminar will examine the factors that cause lawyers to engage in such unethical practices, and how attorneys can protect themselves from crossing the line into unethical conduct. In addition to protecting the attorney’s ethical position, the seminar will explore how attorneys can help prevent clients from engaging in misconduct. It will also examine the role of the attorney in discovering, investigating, disclosing, mitigating and resolving misconduct after it has occurred. The seminar will primarily use a case study approach that uses real world examples of misconduct by corporations and other entities to study the role of the lawyer in these high-profile incidents. The objective of the seminar is to help future lawyers identify and effectively manage risks of misconduct.

Course Description:
Innovative New International Business Transactions Course

An innovative new course on U.S. regulation of International Business Transactions (IBT) -- featuring leading U.S. government officials and experts -- has been specially opened to all JD and LLM students for Fall 2022. This course will be of particular interest to students who want to learn about, and potentially work on, how the U.S. can and does use law to promote environmental, human rights, health, national security, foreign policy, cyber security, intellectual property, and other policy objectives in foreign countries.

The U.S. government's newly aggressive regulation of international business transactions, for these and other policy reasons, has made this a field in which U.S. and foreign companies are hiring tens of thousands of attorneys and other risk and compliance management professionals. The U.S. government is also hiring in this field.

As part of enforcing these new laws, the U.S. government has imposed billions of dollars in fines on U.S. and foreign companies. Such companies are vastly increasing their hiring of attorneys in this arena both to avoid further penalties and under pressure from various non- governmental advocates in the growing corporate social responsibility movement.

The course will be taught by Professor Orde Kittrie, an expert on these topics, on Thursdays from Washington, DC. The DC venue will facilitate guest presentations by several of the U.S.’s top officials and leading practitioners in this arena, including persons who have led these issues for the U.S. Departments of Commerce, Justice, State, and Treasury.

The course will address U.S. laws on specific issues including the following:
-- U.S. trade restrictions designed to promote health, product safety, child labor, and environmental protections overseas;
-- U.S. laws designed to prevent the current theft by U.S. adversaries of hundreds of billions of dollars a year in U.S. private sector intellectual property;
-- U.S. efforts to fight overseas corruption and human rights abuses;
-- U.S. financial penalties on companies transacting with state sponsors of terrorism;
-- U.S. laws allowing lawsuits against overseas abusers; and
-- U.S. export controls aimed at preventing adversary nations from acquiring U.S. weapons and other cutting- edge technologies.

The course will also address more broadly and conceptually the power of U.S. regulators, the incentive to overseas producers of access to the vast U.S. market, and the work of the corporate social responsibility movement, to promote desired changes around the world.

Professor Kittrie would be delighted to answer any questions you might have about this exciting new course. He can be reached at orde.kittrie@asu.edu.

Nearly every field in the practice of law now involves some interaction between law and science and technology - - whether it be litigation, administrative law, environmental law, constitutional law, telecommunications law, health law, corporate law, employment law, contract law, property law and many others. Lawyers who are knowledgeable and comfortable in dealing with the scientific and technological aspects underlying many legal issues are in great demand at law firms, companies, government agencies and other providers of legal services. This survey course is intended to provide the student with an introduction to the various ways in which the legal system interacts with science and technology, and the skills and knowledge necessary to address such issues. The course will examine the interactions and conflicts between law and science using a series of illustrative case studies addressing current issues such as the internet, cloning, air pollution, the Daubert standard for admission of scientific evidence, tobacco research, the Microsoft antitrust case, electric vehicles, digital copyright, genetically modified foods, nanotechnology, anti-terrorism technology, global warming and privacy. No special background or expertise in science or technology is required to benefit from this course. Students can elect to take a take-home exam or write a research paper (20-30 pp.) for the course.

Mergers and Acquisitions

SLN #: 96874
Course Prefix: LAW-659
Course Section: 1001
Credit Hours: 2
Instructor(s): Miner
Course Books: View List of Books

Course Description:
This class will focus on mergers and acquisitions law, with a particular emphasis not only on applicable legal rules and doctrines but on the practical aspects of structuring, negotiating and memorializing transactions. To this end, the course will rely heavily on in-class simulations of the transactional lawyer’s role in the deal-making process.

In light of the interactive and practice-focused nature of this course, it will rely on student participation to a greater degree than in the typical law school course. For this reason, evaluation of the student performance will be based in part on participation. The precise grading criteria will be provided to students in the course syllabus prior to or at the first class session.

The bulk of this class is interactive and practice- focused, and therefore attendance is of particular importance. The instructors intend to give appropriate weight in grading to unexcused absence, tardiness, inadequate preparation, and poor class performance. Withdrawal for excessive absence will be recorded as a failing grade or as a withdrawal, at the instructors’ discretion.

Patent Licensing and Monetization

SLN #: 79814
Course Prefix: LAW-691
Course Section: 1010
Credit Hours: 4
Instructor(s): Winarski
Course Books: View List of Books

Course Description:
This is a skills-based intellectual property course covering patent licensing and patent monetization transactions. Patent licensing and monetization represents the largest financial portion of the patent economy. This practical course will focus on negotiation skills, contract drafting skills, presentation skills, and technical knowledge as used in actual licensing and monetization negotiations as well as integrating key subjects from patent law to demonstrate real-world business transactions involving patents. Students will conduct mock negotiations and contract drafting for three separate patent transactions: a mock patent sale, a mock licensing engagement, and a mock patent portfolio transaction. In particular for the mock licensing engagement, students will be divided into teams representing separate companies that each potentially infringe a patent owned by the other company and: negotiate and draft a Non-Disclosure/Standstill Agreement in order to start a substantive licensing discussion, draft claim charts showing infringement, develop a business model for damages, conduct a technical presentation showing their claim chart alleging infringement and business case for licensing, conduct a rebuttal presentation attacking the other team’s claim chart for lack of infringement and invalidity of the patent as well as rebutting damages, negotiate a term sheet for a cross-licensing deal, and draft a cross-license. Students will also receive lectures on core patent law licensing and monetization issues, contractual patent issues, portfolio transactions driving Mergers & Acquisitions, patent consortiums, patent portfolio market economics and other patent monetization vehicles.

Grades are based 70% on the final 30% on in class participation.

Students require no technical background for this course. Students are encouraged, but not required to take the patent law course or IP survey course prior to taking this class.

Private Property Rights

SLN #: 79778
Course Prefix: LAW-657
Course Section: 1001
Credit Hours: 3
Instructor(s): Claus;Cloar;Patel
Course Books: View List of Books

Course Description:
This course will focus upon one of the most controversial topics in the law and a subject which has received considerable attention from the United States Supreme Court in recent years: the conflict between private property rights and the right of the government to acquire private property for public use or to regulate the use of private property in a manner which substantially limits its economic potential.

The course will include a detailed review of the most important United States Supreme Court decisions (e.g., Penn Central, Nollan, Lucas, Dolan, Palazzolo,Tahoe and Lingle) which, in the context of so-called "regulatory takings” disputes, explore the circumstances in which government action may go "too far" and constitute a taking of private property without just compensation. The eminent domain process will also be discussed, including the United States Supreme Court's decision in Kelo v. City of New London.

In addition, a unique section of the course will utilize the land acquisition litigation arising from the planning and construction of the Bank One Ballpark/Chase Field project (Phoenix, Arizona) as a case study. Pleadings from the appellate proceedings will supplement course materials and will focus on the purposes for which private property may be condemned. The course instructor was one of the trial and appellate attorney for the Maricopa County Stadium District.

The course will also examine the nature and history of title insurance and the role of title insurance in protecting private property rights. Unlike other courses which focus solely on a limited area of substantive law or, alternatively, on procedural or evidentiary considerations, this innovative course explores all aspects of "takings" law from philosophies underpinning (and contradicting with) takings jurisprudence to the evolution of the substantive law through the tactics and strategies often employed at trial and in land use planning decisions.

The format will be principally lecture, with lively group discussion anticipated. The course is recommended for future trial attorneys (government and private), for prospective real estate and land use lawyers, and for others with an academic interest in understanding the law and history behind the headlines.

Prosecuting Trademark Applications

SLN #: 96981

Course Section: 1001
Credit Hours: 3
Instructor(s): Sapp
Course Books: View List of Books

Course Description:
This course focuses on the application process before the United States Patent and Trademark Office (“USPTO”) for trademark registrations. Included within the scope of this course will be considerations to be evaluated prior to commencing the application process, including pre-application trademark searches and evaluating marks for registrability, bases for seeking registration, priority of use, priority of application, use in interstate commerce, and specimens of use. This course is designed to follow a trademark application from preparation through to registration on the Principal Register. Attention will be given to the formal, procedural, and substantive requirements for trademark registration, the examination process, possible bases for initial refusal, strategies for responding to non-final office actions, final office actions, petitions to the Director, and appeals to the Trademark Trial and Appeal Board. The course focuses on practical skills needed to successfully prosecute applications to registration before the USPTO, including drafting responses to office actions, developing the record, drafting briefs for appeals to the Trademark Trial and Appeal Board, and presenting oral arguments before the Trademark Trial and Appeal Board.

The course also necessarily addresses substantive areas of trademark law, which often provide a basis for refusal of registration, including that a mark is generic, merely descriptive, misdescriptive, geographically descriptive, contains scandalous matter, or that a mark is likely to cause confusion with an existing mark or prior application. Therefore, a basic understanding of intellectual property law is recommended but not essential.

The Moral Leader

SLN #: 97600
Course Prefix: LAW-678
Course Section: 1001
Credit Hours: 2
Instructor(s): Cabot
Course Books: View List of Books

Course Description:
The successful lawyer will be presented with moral and ethical choices throughout his professional career. This innovative course is designed to encourage students to confront those fundamental moral challenges, to develop skills in moral analysis and judgment, and to come to terms with their own definition of moral leadership and how it can be translated into action. The course is based on the leadership course, The Moral Leader, brought by Professor Robert Coles, an educator and psychiatrist, to Harvard Business School in the 1980s. Since then it has been taught to thousands of students at Harvard’s schools of business, law, medicine, architecture, politics, design, divinity and education. Drawing on the inspiration of major literary and historical figures such as Machiavelli, Truman, and Achebe, and based upon an impressive array of literary sources, including novels, plays, history, and biography, the seminar-style setting of the course requires students to be thoroughly prepared for each session, willing to participate in rigorous analysis, continual dialogue, and intensive discussion.

The focus of this course is not on morality versus immorality, but on leadership, moral decision-making, and action. The course is comprised of three modules: (i) Moral Challenge, in which students explore fundamental moral problems and the strategies used to come to terms with them; (ii) Moral Reasoning, in which students are introduced to methods and modes of "moral reasoning" that help in justifying, or not justifying, decisions made in complex situations; and (iii) Moral Leadership, in which students confront examples of moral leadership per se.

In 13 sessions each two hours long, with readings in a multiplicity of settings ranging from ancient Greece to contemporary America, students learn to identify moral problems, to address them systematically, and to develop skills that aid them in their professional and personal lives.

Forty percent (40%) of the grade for the course is based on class participation and sixty percent (60%) on a paper, roughly 15 pages in length.

The Regulatory State

SLN #: 93243
Course Prefix: LAW-394
Course Section: 1002
Credit Hours: 3
Instructor(s): Forst
Course Books: View List of Books

Course Description:
This course surveys the vast universe of rules and regulations that literally impact every citizens’ life from cradle to grave. Federal government agencies are authorized by Congress through “enabling legislation" to promulgate regulations. There are more than 450 departments, agencies, and sub-agencies in the U.S. federal government. The Code of Federal Regulations, the official repository of published rules, exceeds 180,000 pages, in 200 volumes, organized in 50 subject-matter titles. And all 50 states have administrative agencies that similarly issue and enforce regulations. No one knows for sure the total number of laws and regulations on the books – various numbers are purely an estimate. There are so many laws and regulations that experts cannot agree on how to count them.

The number and impact of all these agencies and rules have led many to refer to our government as The Regulatory State. These regulations, which have the full force of law, impact our lives daily from cradle to grave. In this course we study how and why rules are issued, and how they are enforced. We survey this area of the law, called administrative law, across the range from Constitutional law, through the history and explosion of regulations, and finally through the current challenge of issuing regulations needed to keep up with the speed of technological innovations such as artificial intelligence and cybersecurity.

The State Attorneys General

SLN #: 85929
Course Prefix: LAW-728
Course Section: 1001
Credit Hours: 2
Instructor(s): Goddard;Segal
Course Books: View List of Books

Course Description:
Understanding the differences that separate state attorneys general and the 13,000 lawyers practicing in their offices across the country from the rest of the legal profession is important, not only for lawyers who wish to someday work for a state AG, but for all who will be called on to negotiate or litigate either in coordination with or against a state attorney general's office. In other words, almost everyone who practices law needs to understand the state attorneys general!

The roots of the Office of State Attorney General run deep in American jurisprudence. All thirteen American colonies had an attorney general and today all fifty states provide legal services to state government through an office of state attorney general that possesses extraordinarily broad jurisdiction. In all states but Hawaii, New Jersey, Wyoming and Alaska, the Office is independent of the governor.

This combination of sweeping jurisdiction and constitutional independence has produced a unique American legal institution of growing importance. Although most often discussed in the context of the largest and most controversial of legal issues, the real task of attorneys general and their staffs is to deliver high quality legal advice that will guide state government in a constitutional and ethical manner. Although each state is unique, there is a remarkable similarity between state attorneys general when addressing similar challenges and issues.

This course will examine the unique nature of the office of state attorney general, the limits of jurisdiction, unique powers under consumer protection laws, the ethical implications of representing the public instead of an identifiable client, Supreme Court practice, multistate advocacy, the decision not to defend a state action, relations with private attorneys, public corruption prosecutions, nonprofit governance and other areas of interest (such as border crime, polygamy, mortgage prosecutions, the states’ role in immigration reform, and marijuana and tobacco) as time permits.

US and Int'l Election Law

SLN #: 90644
Course Prefix: LAW-791
Course Section: 1030
Credit Hours: 3
Instructor(s): Wright
Course Books: View List of Books

Course Description:
NOTE: This course is limited to students admitted to the Washington DC Program. The class will be held in the ASU Barrett & O'Connor Washington Center in DC.

Recent elections in the United States have been the subject of fraud and manipulation allegations that are usually associated with elections overseas. As a result, much needed attention is being placed on a range of potential reforms to the “systems” for electing government officials, to the legal framework for elections, to the use of technology for election administration, and to the conduct of election campaigns. At the same time, elections overseas continue to draw considerable attention as harbingers of populist discontent, illiberal democracy, provokers of conflict and instability, even as many elections occur in environments where the electorate lacks confidence in the legal framework and the election administrators.

This course will address these issues by focusing first on the evolution of election law in the United States from the birth of the Republic through the 2018 mid-terms. The course will then shift to the international setting, reviewing various international instruments, the role of international observers and examining several controversial elections that have occurred during the past three decades. The closing section of the course will focus on several contemporary challenges, including the role of technology and the rise of electoral populism. And throughout the course, we will follow the legal administrative issues that emerge in the context of the unfolding 2020 elections in the United States and what lessons the United States might learn from the conduct of elections in other countries.

This class will focus on the process and practice of white collar and corporate criminal prosecution, defense and case resolution mainly in the pre-charging phase. It will not be a class that focuses on the elements of substantive criminal offenses, although we will analyze at least one federal substantive crime. Rather it will attempt to examine the process the government uses to investigate and prosecute what are commonly referred to as white collar crimes and the process and methodology defense lawyers and corporate counsel use to respond to these investigations, to avoid prosecution, and to resolve cases. We will also look at prosecution policy and discretion, the process of plea negotiation, the issues confronted in parallel criminal and civil proceedings, the collateral consequences of a criminal conviction, and the ethical issues that arise in these contexts.

Women, Gender, and the Law

SLN #: 90725
Course Prefix: LAW-791
Course Section: 1031
Credit Hours: 3
Instructor(s): Beety
Course Books: View List of Books

Course Description:
Women, Gender, and the Law is a guide to varied theoretical systems in order to analyze and understand the relationship between law and gender. Each system has its own assumptions about gender and about social change, as well as its own goals and strategies. Learning the different systems helps us think more thoroughly and systematically about gender issues and how the law has contended with sexual difference, gender-based stereotypes, and the meaning of equality. The course uses case law and readings in a wide variety of subject matter areas in order to develop the theoretical frameworks, including constitutional law, employment discrimination law, family law, criminal law, education law, reproductive rights, poverty law, and immigration. We will test the applicability of these frameworks in real- life situations, ranging from the military to the Affordable Care Act, rent control, sexual assault, single-sex schools, parenting, and law firm practice. Finally, the course complicates the study of gender by incorporating critical approaches such as queer theory, intersectionality analysis, and masculinities theory.

Instructor(s): Carter
Course Books: View List of Books

Course Description:
The class is limited to ASU JD Candidates

This course focuses on an advanced topic of legal writing, the writing done by judicial clerks and judges. The course structure will incorporate (1) lectures and short exercises, (2) multiple written assignments (such as a bench memorandum and a judicial opinion), and (3) occasional oral presentations or questioning of advocates. We will examine and practice the structure, analytical and rhetorical techniques, and tone of both trial court and appellate court documents. Through assigned readings and guest speakers’ insights, we will discuss the experiences of being a judicial clerk and being a judge, questions of ethics and professional development, and “hot topic” issues currently facing the judiciary. Although the course has an obvious appeal to students who hope to be judicial clerks, all students can improve their writing abilities through this writing-intensive course.

Course Description:
Writing Assistants work closely with the Legal Writing Professor to whom they are assigned and provide guidance and mentoring to first-year students. Writing Assistants help with problem selection and generating model answers, hold office hours to assist first-year students with research, help create and grade research and citation exercises, occasionally help with class preparation and/or presentation, and assist with oral argument in the spring. Writing Assistants generally do not play a major role in teaching and grading first-year students. Writing Assistants are expected to attend the Legal Research and Writing Course to which they are assigned and meet with the Professor weekly. Writing Assistants are expected to be available to first-year students and to work well without intensive supervision. Writing Assistants can expect to spend an average of six to eight hours a week fulfilling their duties, although this may vary from week to week. Writing Assistants receive 2 Pass/Fail credit hours each semester (for a total of 4 credit hours). Some positions are for the year; others are for one semester only, depending upon the professor's teaching schedule.
