Administrative agencies impact much of the public's wellbeing. In addition, a large portion of federal law comes from administrative agencies. This class examines the institutional role and legitimacy of federal administrative agencies. Topics will include: --the source of administrative authority --the rationale for delegation of authority to administrative agencies -- constitutional constraints on agency power --the different forms of agency rulemaking/policymaking -- agency adjudication of facts and law --the scope and purpose of judicial review of agency action --the degree to which administrative agencies exercise--for better or for worse!--executive, legislative and judicial powers. The course will have an ILP focus
The class will be interactive with student participation expected in each class. There will not be a traditional final exam. Grades will be based on students‘ performance in two exercises in moot court type proceedings based on a hypothetical bankruptcy case as if in a bankruptcy courtroom and classroom performance/participation. Students will be graded on: 1. Preparation (understanding of pertinent facts and applicable legal issues); and 2. Effectiveness of Presentation to Court (clarity of explanation of relief sought, organization of presentation to Court, effectiveness of responding to questions from Court, effectiveness of responding to specific objections raised, and poise under pressure).
There will be weekly research assignments and three short
quizzes.

The purpose of this cluster, offered in Fall and Spring,
is to develop oral and written advocacy skills with the
short-term goal of participating in the National Native
American Law Students Association Moot Court Competition.
The long-term goal is to familiarize students with
appellate advocacy through the stages of legal research,
writing, and oral argument with emphasis on appellate
advocacy for Tribal clients on Federal Indian law or
Tribal law issues. In the fall, students will focus on
persuasive writing, legal research, and how to organize
and draft a brief, as well as becoming familiar with the
format and expectations of oral arguments before
appellate bodies. The students will draft a brief during
the fall semester. In the Spring, students will rewrite
their brief and practice oral argument skills by focusing
on rhetorical devices, stylistic considerations, and
responding to questions from a panel of Judges while
rebutting opposing arguments as they prepare for the Moot
Court Competition. Students will receive feedback from
Instructors and will have the opportunity to hear from
guest speakers and practice with guest judges.
The final grade will be based on group in-class
presentations, a final exam, and class participation and
attendance.
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.
This 2-credit course builds on the skills obtained
during the first-year Legal Method and Writing program
while introducing students to the conventions and
strategies of appellate advocacy. Students are tasked
both with drafting an appellate brief and with
executing a supporting oral argument. The course
focuses on the structure of cogent written legal
analysis, the techniques of advanced persuasion, and
the strategies of effective oral advocacy.
This course describes how the laws governing business organizations impact the work of all lawyers. A basic understanding of the organization and management of business enterprises, and the law of agency, partnership, limited liability companies, corporations, and securities, is routinely needed across a diverse range of legal specializations.
The ability to run for office, the protection of political speech embodied in the First Amendment, and elected officials being responsive to the electorate are all essential to a functioning democracy. But running for office, giving speeches, and getting heard takes money. How we fund our elections can affect who runs for office, how candidates campaign, the issues discussed, the information voters receive, to whom elected officials are responsive once in office, and opportunities for real and apparent corruption.
Attempts to address these issues include requiring the disclosure of campaign finance information, limiting the size and source of contributions, and finding alternative methods to finance campaigns, among others. This class will focus on the laws, including the Federal Election Campaign Act, its various amendments, state campaign finance provisions, as well as the significant court decisions, which have created our current campaign finance laws.

This course provides students with the opportunity to
learn the principles of effective contract drafting.
Emphasis will be placed on drafting agreements that
effectuate clients’ needs and anticipate potential legal
problems. Students will be required to draft a series of
written contracts, and may also be required to perform
research relating to the drafting of those contracts.
This course will also address the role of the
transactional lawyer, contract interpretation, and the
process of revising contracts drafted by counsel for the
other party. Students will also be introduced to the ways
in which generative A.I. can be effectively and ethically
used in the contract drafting process.
The first class will be a lecture/demonstration on how
creative writing can aid and abet legal writing. The
remaining seven classes will consist of a lecture-
discussion
session and a writing workshop. Each student will write
and
post seven writing assignments on the class web site. We
will critique one another’s writings every week (both on-
line and in class). All students must write. Students
afflicted with writer’s block or unreliable Internet
connections should not take this course. Reliable email
service is essential. The class web site will run on
Canvas.
All students should be familiar with the usual process of
accessing, reviewing, and posting material to a Canvas
site.
The course will examine federal immigration laws, such as the Immigration and Nationality Act, and their impact on state and local criminal justice systems. It will also cover the role of immigration enforcement agencies, such as ICE or HSI, in the criminal justice system and the impact of criminal justice policies, such as "sanctuary" policies and 287(g) agreements, on immigrant communities. Lastly, the course will examine the role of the courts in interpreting and shaping crimmigration law.
This advanced course in education addresses
constitutional law, federal and state statutory and
regulatory provision and case law . The studies will
encompass the development of statutory and case including
their impact upon education in the United States and the
State of Arizona. The class will analyze and report on
analyze major decisions of the United States Supreme
Court in the areas of finance, religion, free speech,
collective bargaining, student and teacher rights, rights
of the disabled, desegregation and discrimination
including recent Arizona decisions. The major critical
legal issues in traditional public charter and private
education will be discussed. Each student as a
significant part of the class and their grade will select
from a list of suggested areas or designate an area of
interest and prepare a paper power and partner with the
instructor to lead the class discussion on the topic. The
presentation should be scheduled to fill the major
component of the class time and will be the focus of each
student to master a particular area of law. Practical
skills application will be used in the final two class
period with outside expert witnesses and student
participants in all roles involving student expulsion
with issues related to guns at school and disability
identification and accommodation by the District.. If
scheduling permits a session shall be devoted to an
employee grievance and the resolution process. We will
analyze several U.S. Supreme Court decisions involving
educational issues, their history and future impact.

Jurimetrics, The Journal of Law, Science, and
Technology, published quarterly, is the journal of the
American Bar Association Section of Science and
Technology and the Center for the Study of Law, Science,
and Technology of the ASU College of Law.
The process of jury selection is an important and
fundamental part of trial practice. This course surveys
the bounds of voir dire practice in state and federal
courts and addresses variations in jury size and
unanimity requirements between state and federal courts.
Statutory and case law discussion will focus on the
nature and number of preemptory strikes and important
narrow issues such as utilization of race as a factor in
the jury selection process. Appellate review of jury
bias, jury misconduct, and the like will also be a focus
of the course.
In this class we learn about the law by studying its limits. We ask how far the law can go to correct or prevent structural inequality, why these limits exist and then we ask ourselves whether they should at all. More practically we may ask questions like:
• Why aren’t separate bathrooms for men and women considered gender segregation under the law?;
These explorations of the boundaries of the law will lead us to an individualized understanding of the law’s role in both ameliorating and perpetuating the conditions of social, political and economic inequality.
In the first half of the class we engage in a legal domain mapping exercise. Students will examine a multidisciplinary range of perspectives, from legal theory and caselaw to philosophical texts and contemporary understandings of the law’s role in advancing structural justice in several sociological contexts, including geography, race, income, and work, labor, and culture. In doing so we will examine how structural inequality is defined under the law, how far jurists are willing to go to address inequality, and how the legal system contributes to a wider structural system of inequity and injustice.
The second half of the class focuses on solutions. We examine novel, groundbreaking cases and doctrine that have “leveled the playing field” for marginalized communities and examine how communities have prospered in the aftermath of certain decisions. Then you will spend some time creating and advocating for your own legal theories: left unchecked, how would you fundamentally transform the legal system to build a better country? How would you justify the public policy decisions like universal basic income, Medicare for all, reparations, or the abolishment of law enforcement within the far more constricted, case-dependent boundaries of the law? What costs would you or society pay for this advocacy?
Why is this class important? Because I believe it is our obligation as teachers and lawyers to equip students with the tools they need to make positive, lasting, and structural change in the communities in which they live. Lawyers are leaders. As a lawyer, will be called “counselor” for a reason - because your highest calling will be to counsel, guide, and care for your community. This class will prepare you fulfill that duty.
This course is designed to teach students legislative
lawyering and advocacy skills. These skills include
identifying and assessing issues susceptible to being
addressed by legislation; analyzing and selecting
legislative options for addressing such issues; drafting
statutory and other legislative materials; and developing
a coalition-building and media strategy for advocating
adoption of the proposed legislative solution. Readings
and guest speakers will focus on advanced and problem-
focused discussion of such topics as Congressional
powers, legislative process (including the functions of
legislative committees), relevant ethics issues
(including the regulation of lobbying), Presidential
vetoes and signing statements, statutory interpretation,
as well as case studies in successful legislative
advocacy campaigns.
Students will be required to draft a set of written
materials which will include a final paper containing
analysis of a problem susceptible to being addressed by
legislation, discussion of potential legislative options
for addressing it, selection of a preferred option, and
strategies for advocacy (including coalition-building and
media). Students may also be required to draft and submit
some or all of the following: proposed statutory
language; draft legislative history (report language,
colloquies, Congressional Record statements); talking
points; fact sheets; and testimony.

This class will focus on the underlying theory and the
routine practice of medical malpractice litigation. The
goal of this seminar is to provide students interested in
medical malpractice litigation specifically, but also in
medical issues in litigation generally, with an
understanding of the claims and defenses in medical
injury cases, the attendant investigatory and discovery
problems, the evidentiary issues raised when dealing with
medical witnesses and documents, alternative dispute
resolution considerations unique to medical cases and the
various ways to effectively present medical evidence at
hearing or trial. As this is a practice oriented seminar
students will through the course of the semester apply
what they are learning to the investigation, pleading,
discovering, negotiating and ultimately presenting a
hypothetical medical malpractice case.
Enrollment in all clinics is determined through an

Students will have the option of completing their graduation writing requirement through the Mediation Clinic, by enrolling in a one-credit independent study. Registration instructions will be provided during the first week of classes.
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.
20% of the grade will be determined by a paper presented at the end of the course. 80% of the grade will be determined by class participation, completion of the reading and weekly writing assignments.

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 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.
This course will be taught by two current federal prosecutors who handle international criminal investigations. One leads the Department of Justice’s charge for war crimes accountability in Ukraine and the other leads a task force whose aim is to disrupt and dismantle global human smuggling and trafficking organizations. In this course, students will examine the development of international criminal law and the various models of accountability for atrocity crimes (e.g., war crimes, crimes against humanity, the crime of aggression, genocide, torture) that have been utilized or that could be developed concerning criminal accountability processes. This will include the political and policy context in which these mechanisms are created and operate; the elements, theories of criminal liability, procedural and evidentiary requirements and required mental state of these crimes; and the jurisprudence that has developed in the various institutions. Although the focus will be on those institutions established since the 1990’s, which represent the modern era of international criminal justice, students will also study the origins of international criminal law, beginning with the immediate post-World War II era and the Nuremberg trials from which much of the modern international law regime developed. Students will also explore the development of new frontiers in international criminal law, using current and recent armed conflicts as discussion platforms or case studies. Novel areas of international criminal law and institutions, such as the establishment of a special tribunal for the crime of aggression (concerning Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine) will be addressed, as will key developmental phases in international criminal law associated with recent armed conflicts. Additional novel areas of international criminal law relating to atrocity crimes will also be explored as an overview (e.g., ecocide, cyber warfare, cultural property crimes, particularly as a method of cultural genocide). Finally, students will, at various points, view international criminal law through a comparative lens between international institutions and international legal frameworks and U.S. domestic criminal law (e.g., differences such as those involving evidence/admissibility, liability theories, charging mechanisms, rights of the accused, mens rea, etc.). In addition to the classroom instruction and discussion, students will have various projects and presentations, including for example, drafting proposals establishing an institution to address the crime of aggression and the pros and cons associated with different models. At the conclusion of the course, students should have a solid understanding of what is required to allege and prove atrocity crimes, the international humanitarian law framework that forms the basis of many of these crimes, and the various systems of international, hybrid, and other judicial mechanisms that have been employed to provide accountability for atrocity crimes.
On March 13, 1982, Young was killed in a mid-air collision while serving his country, piloting a National Guard airplane. In memory of Young and in tribute to him, his friends, and colleagues in conjunction with the Arizona Prosecuting Attorneys' Advisory Council (APAAC) and the Sandra Day O'Connor College of Law at Arizona State University, established the Truman R. Young, Jr. Prosecutorial Fellowship.
The fellowship is designed to annually offer one third-year law student the opportunity to participate in the type of internship program Young found so rewarding.
The program is sponsored by the Arizona Prosecuting Attorneys’ Advisory Council and administered by the Sandra Day O’Connor College of Law.
Victims in Criminal Procedure will explore the
historical and evolving role of crime victims in the
criminal justice process. The law and litigation of crime
victims’ rights at the state and federal levels will be
examined. Among the topics that will be considered are
constitutional and statutory rights for crime victims,
the effect of these rights on the rights of the defendant
and the criminal justice system generally. The question
of enforcing victims’ rights and case law developments
will also be considered.
This is an advanced writing seminar that will introduce
students to types of legal documents not covered
in the first-year curriculum. The course is designed to
prepare students for legal practice. Assignments may
include demand letters, advice letters, contracts, legal
research, pleadings, and statutes. Classes will consist
of a combination of lecture and interactive exercises.
Students will receive individualized feedback on all
assignments.Fall 2024

The professors have combined almost 100 years' experience in complex chapter 11 bankruptcy cases and bring to the course both the judicial and practitioner's perspectives. The course will also utilize guest lecturers in the areas of understanding financial concepts necessary for a chapter 11 case. Regardless of whether a student desires to be a "courtroom lawyer", knowing how to effectively prepare and present aspects of a chapter 11 restructuring are essential to the negotiation of any restructuring.

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.

The course then considers basic bankruptcy law concepts, such as property to be administered in a bankruptcy, a creditor’s ability be paid, prohibition of creditors’ actions while a debtor is in bankruptcy, and the ability of the debtor to have a “fresh start.” The course also considers basic issues that debtors or creditors may face under Chapter 7 (liquidation), Chapter 11 (repayment by individuals or businesses of debts over time pursuant to a plan), or Chapter 13 (the ability of individuals who receive regular wages to repay their creditors over time pursuant to plan). The end of the course will focus on the outer limits of creditors' rights and what makes the bankruptcy courts the de facto commercial courts for the nation. There are no prerequisites to this course, although a background in secured transactions would be very helpful.

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 primarily taught by the problem method, with a focus on the practical application of the rules in a trial setting. 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. Students should make every effort to take Evidence before taking Trial Advocacy or clinical courses.

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.

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.

This class will provide an overview of the international human rights law system. We will examine the primary substantive standards that comprise the core of international human rights law, such as rights to a fair trial and to be free from genocide, torture, summary execution, arbitrary arrest and detention, and discrimination. We will also examine so-called “second- generation rights,” such as economic, social, and cultural rights. We will study the primary institutions and processes for the enforcement of such rights: treaty monitoring bodies, the regional human rights courts and commissions, the United Nations institutions, including the Human Rights Commission and the Security Council, domestic implementation through legislative and judicial mechanisms, as well as through inter-governmental diplomacy, reporting, and the mobilization of shame by non-governmental organizations. And, we will examine the explosion of international criminal tribunals, beginning with an examination of the Nuremberg trials, then a look at the International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia, the International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda, and the new International Criminal Court.

Course Description:
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. This
course qualifies as a “core course” for the LS&I
Certificate program.

Course Description:
This course will examine topical issues in the laws
surrounding policing. Our goal is to rigorously
interrogate the various legal frameworks that touch on
policing, and to consider their extension to novel and
rapidly evolving factual contexts.
We will read a variety of legal and theoretical materials
to explore the modern-day aims of policing, how the
practice of policing is (or is not) disciplined by law,
and how policing excesses can and should be remedied.
Specific topics will include police discretion, police
militarization, cell phone location tracking, and
qualified immunity. You will be expected not only to
master existing legal doctrines, but to be able to
cogently discuss and debate larger questions of theory
and policy that inform the law’s continued development.
Although no particular background is required, you should
have both an interest in criminal procedure and a taste
for difficult analytical prose.

Instructor(s): Grey
Course Books: View List of Books
Course Description:
Products Liability refers to civil liability for injuries caused by defective products. It occupies a central role in American law, as the number of new products used by consumers has increased exponentially. Accompanying this proliferation of new consumer products is an increase in injuries. It has been estimated that the number of product accidents is approximately 50 million a year. Products liability is a major way that our society attempts to moderate undue risks. Products liability mixes tort law (negligence, strict liability and deceit) and contract law (warranty) as well as common law (mostly tort) and statutory law (from the UCC). This seminar will trace the development of products liability law, and analyze the major issues currently confronting the courts in this area. It will examine the main theories of manufacturer liability, the concept of product defect, and defenses available to the manufacturer. The seminar will also explore problems of proof and remedies, as well as proposed legislative solutions to problems that arise in these areas.

The valuation principles to be examined apply in business and economic damages litigation, private property rights disputes, eminent domain proceedings, family law disputes, securities and insurance actions, and almost every other type of litigation which involves a determination of the value of, or damage to, an interest in real property or in a business enterprise. The same principles apply in a wide range of business transactions including mergers, acquisitions, financing and estate planning. This introductory valuation and damages course is specifically designed for prospective real estate, land use, corporate, tax and trial attorneys who anticipate practice in the real estate or business law fields. With respect to real estate valuation, the entire appraisal process will examined, including the provisions to the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP). The three methodologies for valuing interests in real property (cost analysis, sales comparison analysis, and income analysis) will each be explored. Special issues, such as the valuation of leasehold interests will also be discussed. With respect to business valuation (including the valuation of professional practices), the course will examine the different standards of value, the compilation and analysis of necessary financial information, and the different methodologies available to assist in the valuation process. Among the specific methodologies which will be discussed will be the guideline publicly traded company method, the capitalized excess earnings method, and capitalized economic income methods. Discounts for lack of control and lack of marketability will also be discussed. One class session will be devoted to a demonstration courtroom examination of a prominent business valuation expert. No prior accounting or mathematics training is required.

Course Description:
Sex Crimes examines the criminal law’s role in the
regulation of sex, sexuality, and sexualized violence.
Our goal in this course is to rigorously interrogate why
societies criminalize some sexual behaviors, the legal
principles that serve as a limitation on the definition
of sex crimes, and the practical problems of
criminalizing sexual conduct.
We will primarily be examining the theories and public
policies that inform the decision whether to criminalize
specific sexual practices. Our work will mainly draw upon
secondary sources—overwhelmingly legal scholarship—rather
than cases and statutes. The reading will be extensive.
Specific topics we will discuss include rape and sexual
assault; human trafficking; statutory rape; prostitution
and similar sex work; revenge pornography; and sex
offender monitoring and notification requirements.

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.

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!

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.

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.
