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.
By the end of this course, students will be able to:
A. Understand the general framework of a corporate
project from start (in R&D), through manufacturing and
sourcing, through sale to end customer.
B. Identify and discuss with clients the key risks
that each contract or scenario in the framework bring.
C. Provide practical counseling to clients on
contracts that come from the client’s third party
partners/vendors/customers while being able to explain
the logic for the feedback and short/long term
consequences.
D. Understand that there are multiple “right”
answers to advancing a client’s project along.
Many of these areas are nascent or developing the law
might be developed and evolve to meet the legal
challenges presented by AI. The seminar is designed to
have a practice-oriented approach mimicking many of the
practical and ethical concerns faced by practicing
attorneys. Each week focuses on a specific aspect of AI
in law and ethics, ensuring that students gain a holistic
understanding of the subject.
A. The regulation of amateur athletics by private
organizations, state, local and federal governments, and
the judicial branch;
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.
Enrollment in all clinics is determined through an
application process.
Administration of the Final Exam will be discussed in class.
The class is limited to 10 students - if there is more student demand, students seeking the Indian Law certificate
will receive preference.
This spring break course will be held in Nebraska on the Winnebago reservation at Ho-Chunk, Inc.. Ho-Chunk, Inc.
(HCI) is the award-winning economic development corporation owned by the Winnebago Tribe of Nebraska. Established in
1994 in Winnebago, Nebraska with one employee, HCI has grown to over 1,100 employees with operations in Nebraska,
Iowa, South Dakota, Minnesota, Kansas, California, Georgia, Louisiana, Florida, Washington, D.C., Afghanistan,
Mexico and Iraq. HCI operates 18 subsidiaries in a diverse range of industries including information technology,
construction, government contracting, professional services, wholesale distribution, office products and technology,
logistics, marketing, media and retail.
The class is designed to train students to implement practical political, legal and economic solutions to help
Tribe's implement a broad range of economic development activities. It is offered by Lance Morgan, who has combined
his legal and business expertise to develop one of the most successful native owned corporations in the country, Ho-
Chunk, Inc. Historically Federal Indian Law has had a negative effect on tribal economic development by limiting the
tribes in a number of ways. The seminar will focus the economic impediments create by Federal Indian Law. The class
seminar will not just describe the problem but give real examples of how tribes have actually overcome such legal
impediments to create successful businesses and bypass some of the legal restrictions. Additionally, the seminar
will also focus on having the students understand Federal Indian Law is restrictive in nature and that if they are
going to be successful lawyers that they will have to use Federal Indian Law as a starting point, not an endpoint.
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.
Decedent's Estates is a pre-requisite for this
class
This class is intended as an overview to expose

for a one-credit independent study with Professor Demaine
after the spring semester begins, and write 25 additional
pages during the semester.
This course will examine and explore these and other
contemporaneous education-related issues through a law
and policy lens. It will focus in particular on the role
education both can and should play in American society
and, in turn, the legal framework that can and should
support such a system. Topics to be discussed include,
among others, the legal and political design of America’s
K-12 public education system; the contours of legally
provided rights to educational access; federal and state
constitutional and statutory dimensions of school
structure, governance, and funding; educational equity
and equal educational opportunity; school choice and
privatization; religion in schools; the relationship
between education and democracy; curricular control; the
intersection of education and the First Amendment; and
others. Course readings will include federal and state
judicial decisions, statutes, and constitutional
provisions, as well as law review articles, journalistic
reports and analysis, curricular standards, and other
literature. The course will culminate with a final paper
on a student-chosen topic arising out of the course
materials.
This course will prepare and familiarize students with
the
business and legal aspects of the entertainment industry,
related contracts, and working with guilds and other
organizations. We will look at entertainment law from a
practical perspective and analyze solutions to common
problems, while providing practical experience in
drafting
licensing, distribution and above-the-line contracts and
the terms included within them.

This class will begin with a meeting on January 21 from
11:15 am – 1:15 pm in room 394A to outline the format of
the course and to discuss the principles of the Indian
political classification embodied in the assigned reading
materials. Individual meetings and counseling will
continue as needed throughout the semester.
This Research Cluster will focus on the Indian political
classification under federal law in concert with
reviewing equal protection concepts under federal law as
well. Small group meetings will be scheduled during the
semester. Students will research and complete a white
paper on the focus area of this course and present their
findings to representatives from Arizona's Indian tribal
governments. This Research Cluster will be limited to 6
students.
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 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, online from Washington, DC. The
DC venue will facilitate guest presentations by several
of the U.S.’s leading practitioners in this arena,
including persons who have led these issues for the U.S.
government.
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;
The final grade will be based on class participation (to
include any assigned in-class presentations) and a paper
on a topic regarding U.S. regulation of international
business transactions.
Accordingly, the College will normally recognize a
maximum of 12 credit hours for law school externship
work in partial fulfillment of the J.D. degree under
the guidelines set forth in the STATEMENT OF STUDENT
POLICIES.

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.
This course examines all aspects of the negotiation
process. Students
will learn the principles and skills associated with both
competitive
and interest-based negotiation by participating in a
series of
simulation exercises inside and outside of class. The
simulations
involve negotiations in a wide variety of actions and
will require
substantial out-of-class preparation. The reading
materials for the
course include both theoretical literature and practice
focused
articles, and the class culminates in an extensive out-
of-class
negotiation simulation.
Appellate work at the United States Patent and Trademark
Office is a vital part of patent prosecution. Appeals at
the USPTO are decided by the Patent Trial and Appeal
Board. This course provides an experiential course where
students are given an actual patent application from
Hewlett Packard, a fortune 500 company with headquarters
in Silicon Valley, that stands rejected on a final
rejection. Students take that patent application and
develop a strategy for advancing the case along with
writing a Pre-Appeal Brief, an Appeal Brief, draft an
Answer from the USPTO Examiner, and perform a simulated
Oral Argument in a mock-trial setting. In addition to
receiving feedback from the Professor on each assignment,
students receive the actual documents that HP submitted
in the case during the appellate process for review. The
goal of the course is to give students a practical
working knowledge of the USPTO Appeals process while
prosecuting patents. Patent Law is a prerequisite for
this course. This course is a great way to learn
persuasive patent advocacy skills for patent prosecution
that are applicable to patent litigation as well.
This course will introduce and reinforce bar examination
study and test taking skills. It will provide a review of
heavily-tested areas of substantive law on the bar exam,
an in-depth exploration of each part of the bar exam
(multiple choice, essay and performance test), and weekly
practice opportunities to build students’ skills
regarding each part of the exam. Through regular self-
assessment and graded feedback, this course will provide
students with the opportunity to hone the skills
necessary for effective bar exam study and success on the
bar exam. The course includes three mandatory in-person
sessions on 1/23/26, 2/13/26, and 3/20/26 from 9:00 a.m.
to Noon; the remainder of the class will be completed
asynchronously via Canvas.

The United States is unusual in the degree of regulatory
and fiscal authority it grants to state and local
governments. Further, state constitutions differ from
the federal constitution in the level of specificity with
which they regulate policy decisions. This course
explores both the structure of state and local
governments and the ways in which federal and state
constitutional law constrict policy choice at the state
and local level. Specific topics include: the
constitutional status of states and local governments;
local government formation and boundary changes; disputes
between state agencies; state-local relations and local
home rule; and the role of special districts and regional
governance. This course will give particular attention to
the law of state and local finance, include taxation,
borrowing, and public-purpose requirements. While this
course will draw on examples from Arizona, it is not a
course focused exclusively on Arizona law, but rather a
survey of the field.
Enrollment will be determined through an application
process.
The Sustainability Law Research Seminar course enables
students to work closely with a full-time professor
and with peers on substantive legal academic research
projects in the area of environmental sustainability.
The students receive extensive professor feedback
throughout the research and writing process and
workshop their papers to their peers within the class
and give PowerPoint presentations of their projects.
The course seeks to help students produce
sustainability-related law articles worthy of
publication in legal academic journals. The class is structured so that all groups meets
together each Monday for a 90 minute class, and each
group of approximately eight students meets separately
for a longer period on Wednesday, Thursday or Friday to
participate
in litigation skills exercises supervised by experienced
trial lawyers from the community. The Monday lecture
session will focus on litigation topics related to the
performance exercises to be undertaken in the skills
sections conducted later that same week. Students will
engage in exercises involving Interviewing, Counseling,
Written Discovery, Depositions, Pretrial Motions, ADR,
and Trial Advocacy.

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. 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 that
are not covered in the first-year curriculum.
Approximately half the course emphasizes a
transactional practice and half the course emphasizes
a litigation practice. Assignments may include demand
letters, advice letters, contracts, pleadings, and
statutes. Classes will consist of a combination of
lecture and interactive exercises. Students will
receive individualized feedback on all assignments.Spring 2026

SLN #: 39347
Course Prefix: LAW-655
Course Section: 1001
Credit Hours: 3
Instructor(s): Salerno;Baum
Course Books: View List of Books
Course Description:
This course will cover corporate business reorganizations
under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code. It
will explore legal and economic strategies used when
filing a plan of reorganization and securing financing,
the powers of the debtor in possession, negotiation of a
plan, classification of claims and interests, sales of
assets, and issues arising during and after plan
confirmation. 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. There are no
required prerequisites, although a general Bankruptcy
survey course and Secured Transactions are recommended as
background. These courses can be taken concurrently.
This course will teach three things: (1) the substantive
law and rules of bankruptcy chapter 11 business
reorganizations; (2) business and financial concepts
inherent in every chapter 11 restructuring; and (3) "on
your feet" presentation skills.
At the conclusion of this course, students should expect
to have attained knowledge in the following five (5)
areas: (a) familiarity with the "restructuring process",
including identities of the usual participants in these
cases and the dynamics between the competing
constituents in Chapter 11 cases; (b) understanding of
how the various parts of the Bankruptcy Code and
applicable non-bankruptcy law weave together to form the
legal backdrop in which all Chapter 11 cases exist; (c)
understanding the basic financial concepts which
underlie, and are inherent in, every Chapter 11
restructuring; (d) familiarity with the types of
restructuring alternatives available to financially
distressed business enterprises; and (e) familiarity with
certain "real world" strategic issues and concerns
involved in the restructuring process.
The class will be interactive with student participation
expected in each class. There will be a traditional final
exam, which will be open book, and will involve issue
spotting and analysis based on fact patterns. . To
prepare students for the world of restructurings, they
will be called upon by the professors to recite facts and
holdings in applicable cases, and will be required to
stand while doing so, if possible. Students should be
prepared to be respectfully challenged on conclusions and
other matters as part of the give and take of the
process. Grades will be based on the final exam grade
plus students’ performance in classroom exercises.

Course Description:
If certain requirements are satisfied, Federal Civil
Procedure Rule 23 permits aggregate litigation in the
form of a class action. This popular procedural device
has been used in various substantive areas – e.g.,
antitrust, civil rights, consumer protection, employment,
mass torts and securities – to resolve legal claims en
masse. This course will focus on the procedural aspects
of class action law, making the course content relevant
to all types of class actions, without regard to the
substantive nature of the claims. We will examine the
requirements for class certification, the manner in which
the class certification decision is made, the procedural
protections required for class litigation, as well as
various constitutional and other issues impacting the
conclusive reach of litigated or settled class actions.
The course is recommended for students with an interest
in litigation and for those with an academic interest in
this often hyped, and sometimes maligned, form of claim
resolution.

Instructor(s): Kappes
Course Books: View List of Books
Course Description:
This course provides a detailed introduction to the law
of copyright. It emphasizes the basics of traditional
copyright protection for art, music, and literature and
but also considers the application of those basic
principles in an age of digital technology (music sharing
á la Grokster, internet hyperlinking, protection of
computer programs and user interfaces, and similar
current issues). Copyright law is now important well
beyond the entertainment industry, although many of the
decisions we study derive from that genre. (Humphrey
Bogart, Cole Porter, George Harrison, J.D. Salinger,
Superman, Mickey Mouse, and many other luminaries make
cameo appearances in our cases.) Copyright (and
copyright-like protection schemes) have become an
increasingly important element of a general law practice
as a result of the explosive growth in economic value of
information-based products, like computer software and
digital networks and databases. The lawyer ignorant of
basic copyright principles will be increasingly
handicapped in many areas of practice, such as
negotiating technology transfers, drafting contractual
rights, developing schemes of protection and privacy,
distinguishing criminal from noncriminal behavior, and in
litigation. But more important than all that, the cases
and materials are lots of fun!

Course Description:
Copyright courses are extremely in vogue these days with
the explosion of artificial intelligence and the US
Copyright Office besieged with over 10,000 comments
concerning its proposed regulations for copyrightability
where AI is used the creation process. Furthermore, with
all the new technological advances of the last 5 years,
and all of the different platforms for commercial
exploitation of IP conduct, IP law, and copyright
litigation in particular, has exploded and jamming the
dockets of the federal courts. While it is helpful to
study copyright cases and to analyze copyright law going
all the way back to the 1909 statue, copyright litigation
has become almost a subspeciality of litigation itself.
For those of you who want to really learn how to navigate
the federal courtroom, especially in the area of IP law,
then this is the course for you: Welcome to the Dark Side
of IP law: The Ultimate Copyright Litigation Course.

Instructor(s): Demaine
Course Books: View List of Books
Course Description:
This seminar provides students an opportunity to study
laws and policies governing cults and alternative
religions. While the definition of a “cult” will be a
topic of initial study in the seminar, it may be
conceived of loosely as a group with a charismatic leader
whose members are persuaded to relinquish their self-
identities and material possessions in furtherance of the
group’s goals. In addition to analyzing the definition of
a “cult,” the first part of the seminar will be devoted
to discussing the various types of cults, studying
particular cults, and learning about cultic activities.
The remainder of the seminar will cover domestic and
foreign legal and policy issues generated by cults,
including the legal rights of cultic organizations, anti-
cult organizations, cult members, and cult members’
families. To the degree that religious movements falling
outside the mainstream, conventional religions are
conceptually similar to cults or treated similarly under
the law, they also will be covered.

Instructor(s): Miller
Course Books: View List of Books
Course Description:
This class focuses on a wide range of tribal and
individual Indian economic development issues. Relevant
federal cases, statutes, regulations, and case studies
will be used. The primary purpose of the class is to
describe and analyze the political, legal, economic,
structural, and cultural issues faced by tribal
governments and reservation communities when they develop
their economies. Additional emphasis will be placed on
how tribal initiatives may conflict with federal case
law, state jurisdiction, and federal policies directed at
tribal economic development. The focus will be on helping
students identify and implement creative tribal-based
solutions. Although relevant legal principles will be
explained when necessary, having taken a course in
Federal Indian law will be helpful. This is an
experiential learning experience class. Students will be
teamed with another student to negotiate a business
arrangement between a tribe and a non-Indian
businessperson, a contract to effectuate that agreement,
form a corporation under a tribal code, and then write a
confidential letter to their clients explaining the
agreement and whether the client should sign the
contract. No exams will be given and no papers can be
written for this class.

Instructor(s): Singleton
Course Books: View List of Books
Course Description:
The advent of eDiscovery has had an extraordinary impact
on American jurisprudence. The unbridled proliferation of
e-mail and other forms of electronically stored
information (“ESI”) has proved daunting to litigants,
counsel and the courts. ESI has eclipsed other forms of
evidence and has required a radical change in how
disputes are litigated and resolved. Recent eDiscovery
amendments to the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure and
the rules of many states, including Arizona, are a
testament to the judiciary’s recognition of the growing
importance of eDiscovery in our judicial system. This
course will address the rapidly developing eDiscovery
case law and tackle the challenging issues arising from
the emerging eDiscovery phenomenon. Subject areas covered
will include a survey of relevant information technology,
ESI preservation obligations, search and retrieval, ESI
production methods, spoliation and sanctions, attorney-
client privilege and ethical issues, and admissibility of
digital evidence.

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.

Instructor(s): Scharff
Course Books: View List of Books
Course Description:
Federal income tax touches virtually every aspect of
modern American life. For practicing lawyers, a basic
understanding of the structure and vocabulary of the tax
code is critical. In this course, an introduction to
federal income taxation, we will learn the basic rules
that govern the income tax system, with a particular
focus on individuals and unincorporated businesses.
Unlike courses that are based on common law, this course
will require students to study statutory and
administrative law extensively. As we delve into the
provisions of the Internal Revenue Code, we will also
consider fundamental tax policy questions along the way,
asking not just what the law is, but also, what it could
be and, perhaps, should be.

SLN #: 11090
Course Prefix: LAW-691
Course Section: 1008
Credit Hours: 3
Instructor(s): Hepburn;Levesque
Course Books: View List of Books
Course Description:
This course is designed to acquaint students with the
legal intricacies of using domestic laws to prosecute
international crimes. Taught through a combination of
lecture, discussion, and simulation, the course will
teach the fundamentals of criminal prosecution. The role
of the federal prosecutor and key phases of a criminal
case will be explored, such as initiating investigations
and creating investigative plans; obtaining evidence from
foreign countries and ensuring it is admissible in court;
addressing constitutional issues that can arise when
gathering evidence abroad; making charging decisions;
exploring discovery issues common in transnational
prosecutions; drafting indictments and presenting before
the grand jury; preparing the case for trial; negotiating
pleas; and preparing for sentencing. These topics will be
explored using investigation/case simulations from U.S.
substantive human rights and humanitarian law statutes,
including the U.S. War Crimes Act, smuggling statutes
used to dismantle complex transnational smuggling
organizations, and other U.S. statutes that have
extraterritorial reach. Simulated exercises and
corresponding writing assignments may include: preparing
investigative plans; conducting witness interviews;
drafting search warrant affidavits for electronic and
other evidence; identifying the legal elements for novel
statutes; crafting indictments; eliciting grand jury
testimony; preparing and delivering opening statements,
direct examinations, cross-examinations, and closing
arguments; and drafting and negotiating plea agreements.
An investigation/case study may include the armed
conflict in Ukraine and recent smuggling events that
raise grave humanitarian concerns.

Instructor(s): Marchant;Tournas
Course Books: View List of Books
Course Description:
Many commentators predict that the 21st Century will be
the Century of the Genome, in which advances in genetic
technology will fundamentally transform society, the
economy, and our day-to-day lives. Already, advances in
genetic sciences are having a substantial impact on
diverse areas such as criminal law, health care,
agriculture, and pharmaceuticals. The legal system is
increasingly being called upon to address issues related
to genetics, and many legislators, judges, regulators,
and practicing attorneys are scrambling to learn about
the new legal problems and opportunities created by
advances in genetic sciences. This course will provide
students with background on genetics and recent genetic
advances, and it will address the legal consequences and
issues associated with such advances. Specific legal
topics that will be covered include forensic uses of DNA,
genetic privacy and confidentiality, genetic
discrimination in employment and insurance, genetic
testing in the workplace, genetic screening, gene therapy
and genetic enhancement, pharmacogenomics, stem cell and
tissue culture research, cloning, and patenting and
licensing of genetic technology. No prior study or
knowledge of genetics or molecular biology is required.
The readings will include materials presenting the
fundamental ideas of modern genetics.

Credit Hours: 2
Instructor(s): Michaels
Course Books: View List of Books
Course Description:
This seminar addresses the health insurance marketplace
from a legal perspective, with a focus on how access to
health care services is impacted by the manner in which
this marketplace is financed and managed. Topics to be
explored include (1) the Affordable Care Act’s insurance
reform provisions and how the expanded role of federal
subsidies in this marketplace facilitates consumer access
to coverage; (2) Federal laws and regulations that
address increased health care price transparency to
consumers from both hospitals and health plans, while
also protecting consumers from unanticipated health care
costs; (3) How the Employee Retirement Income Security
Act of 1974 (“ERISA”) affects health care coverage
offered by employer group health plans and whether this
law operates as a barrier to meaningful State health
insurance reforms; (4) Changing provider health care
payment systems and their relationship to costs, quality
and consumer satisfaction with health care services; (5)
The role of private health insurers in providing coverage
to Medicare beneficiaries and Medicaid recipients on a
full risk basis, and whether there is sufficient
accountability to ensure access and quality of care while
managing program costs; (6) Prescription drug pricing,
including the prescription drug price negotiation
provisions of the Inflation Reduction Act and the
pending legal initiatives taken by the pharmaceutical
industry to delay or defeat their implementation; and (7)
The role of the Supreme Court in determining consumer
access to certain health care services, such as
preventive health services and contraceptive benefits,
as well as potential discrimination claims related to
health care coverage. Course requirements include a
seminar paper on a topic directly related to seminar
content and of potential interest to a prospective
employer in the healthcare sector.

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.

SLN #: 12937
Course Prefix: LAW-791
Course Section: 1020
Credit Hours: 2
Instructor(s): Cohen
Course Books: View List of Books
Course Description:
Using clips from recent movies and television programs,
short stories, selection from depositions and trial
transcripts and other sources for our hypotheticals we
will explore the ethical and professionalism issues that
arise in the everyday practices of civil and criminal
litigation. We will look not only at how such problems
and issues arise in the course of law practice, but also
how these problems and issues are addressed and about the
alternative ways in which they could be resolved. In the
course of exploring these problems and issues we will
also talk about litigation skills, the ways in which
ethical lawyers work toward accomplishing practice goals.
The method of instruction will include lecture, class
discussion and in class simulations. The goal is for
students to be able to recognize the ethical and
professionalism issues they will confront in the everyday
practice of law and to have the confidence, because of
their familiarity with litigation practices and skills,
to confront and deal with such issues appropriately. This
class is a pass/fail course. Students will be expected to
attend class, participate in the in- class activities,
and write two short (3-5 page) papers commenting on
ethical issues presented in media depictions of
litigation practice.

Course Description:
This seminar will focus on the underlying legal
principles but especially on the routine practice of
medical malpractice litigation. The goal of this seminar
is to provide students interested in medical malpractice
litigation specifically, but also students interested 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, the practice of
discovery, alternative dispute resolution considerations
distinctive to medical cases and the various ways to
effectively present medical evidence at hearings or
trial. As this is a practice-oriented seminar students
will through the course of a semester apply what they are
learning to the investigation, pleading, discovery,
negotiation, and presentation at arbitration or trial of
a hypothetical medical malpractice case.

Course Description:
Most of the great open spaces of the western United
States - forests, mountains, and deserts - are owned
by the federal government in the form of National
Forests, National Parks, National Wildlife Refuges,
and lands managed by the Bureau of Land Management
(BLM). These publicly-owned lands are important
sources of such commodities as timber, minerals, and
oil and natural gas. They are also valued by the
public for their natural scenery, recreational
opportunities, wildlife, and wilderness qualities.
Over the last several decades, these lands have been
the scene of controversy and conflict over the
environmental effects of logging, mining, livestock
grazing, recreation, and other land uses. This course
will cover the history of federal public land law, the
administration of federal public lands, and the
interpretation and application of the major federal
laws affecting public land management. In addition to
casebook readings and class discussions, each student
will work with a small group of other students to
prepare a presentation to the class on a topic of
current controversy in public land management. This
course heavily emphasizes collaboration, group work,
and real-world perspectives provided by practitioners.
In-class and out-of-class activities require student
participation in teams and giving graded oral
presentations.

Course Description:
Negotiation is a critical leadership skill yet largely
counter-cultural to many of us. Understanding our
individual strengths and developing an intentional
negotiation strategy will enable each of us to achieve
more sustainable agreements in our work and life. This
course examines all aspects of the negotiation process
from preparation to writing up agreements. We will
explore how neuroscience is teaching us to understand
human reactions to risk of loss situations and navigate
them more successfully. Students will learn negotiation
principles, skills, and ethics by participating in a
series of simulation exercises and through reading
assignments.

Course Books: View List of Books
Course Description:
Advances in the rapidly developing field of neuroscience
have allowed scientists to develop new techniques in
investigating the brain activity that underlies cognitive
phenomena. We will look at ways in which these advances
challenge the law both directly (such as changing the
common law definition of death from the cardio-pulmonary
standard to brain death) and indirectly (such as changing
our views on mental retardation and criminal
culpability.) Thus, we will examine how the various
emerging neuroscientific findings and technologies could
or should affect such topics as moral reasoning, criminal
culpability, lie detection, bias detection, cognitive
enhancement, and punishment. The first part of the course
will explore the neurological definition of personhood,
as well as the implications of monitoring and predicting
human behavior. The second part of the course will focus
on efforts to manipulate or modify the brain. We will
also explore some of the challenging questions raised by
the increasing use of brain scans as evidence in the
courtroom.

Course Description:
The course is targeted at teaching the fundamental
knowledge and skills required for preparing patent
applications for filing at the U.S. Patent and Trademark
Office (PTO) and pursuing them to issuance. The patent
practitioner must be prepared to interview the inventor,
learn the technology, and prepare the patent application.
Further, the patent practitioner negotiates with the
examiner and prosecutes the application. Clients expect
the practitioner to provide useful counsel on how to
pursue the application, options for appealing or
otherwise overcoming adverse decisions, and protecting
the technology from domestic and foreign competition. The
course is designed to train the patent practitioner to
understand the patent options for various technologies,
clients, and situations. Students learn the basics of
drafting patent applications, pursuing the patent
application through the PTO process, meeting adverse
decisions from the PTO, and maintaining the issued
patent. The course also addresses anticipating litigation
issues, protecting developing technologies, and pursuing
patents abroad.”

Instructor(s): Capps
Course Books: View List of Books
Course Description:
In this seminar, we will explore philosophical approaches
to solving various puzzles related to precedent,
including how to distinguish holdings from dicta, what it
means to reason by analogy to precedent, whether (and if
so how) precedent constrains judicial discretion, whether
(and if so how) erroneous precedent can change the law,
when courts empowered to overrule their own precedent
should do so, and how to make sense of "second-order"
precedent about the doctrine of precedent. Grades will be
based on participation and a research paper (5,000 to

Instructor(s): Hodge Jr.
Course Books: View List of Books
Course Description:
The protection and preservation of the public health are
quintessential goals of government. Equally critical is
the need to respect individual rights and morals in
American society. The classic conundrum of public health
law and ethics is the extent to which government may
restrain or impinge citizens’ interests, directly or
indirectly, to promote the health and safety of the
community. This course, Public Health Law and Ethics,
explores the inherent tensions between promoting the
public health and protecting the legal and ethical rights
and interests of individuals.
Public health law and ethics require a careful balancing
of collective and individual rights and interests. The
objectives of this course are to: (1) better understand
the structure and functions of the public health system;
(2) define public health through an examination of public
health theory and practice; (3) understand the roles of
government, private sector entities, and individuals in
assuring the conditions for people to be healthy; and (4)
assess legal and ethical conflicts between governmental
interests in public health and individual interests in
liberty or other protected rights in multiple contexts.
These conflicts will be examined through critical facets
of public health theory and practice— e.g., health
promotion and communication; public health powers such as
immunization, testing, screening, quarantine, and
isolation; public health emergencies; regulation of
businesses and professions; and tort litigation for the
public’s health. While protecting the public’s health has
global dimensions, which will be explored to some degree,
the focus of the course is on public health law in the
United States.

SLN #: 39569

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

SLN #: 18049
Course Prefix: LAW-791
Course Section: 1028
Credit Hours: 2
Instructor(s): Marchant
Course Books: View List of Books
Course Description:
The objectives of this seminar are to train future
lawyers in developing, selecting and implementing private
standards, soft law and self-regulation by your clients.
Every company utilizes private standards, soft law and
self-regulation to some degree, and this reliance is
particularly substantial in cutting edge industries such
as those in the technology sector. Although there is an
emerging strong need for attorneys with expertise in
standards, soft law and self-regulation while the
traditional law school curriculum does not address these
forms of self-governance in any detail. This seminar
seeks to fill that gap. It will address the advantages
and disadvantages of soft law approaches and discuss the
contexts and industries in which it is most and least
relevant. It will discuss the various types of soft law
used by companies and will examine case studies to study
where such programs succeed and fail and the contributing
factors. It will discuss the various legal issues raised
by building soft law programs, including antitrust,
intellectual property, corporate governance, contract and
insurance implications. It will examine criticism of
industry self-regulation and potential tools for making
soft law programs more credible and effective through
greater accountability. It will also discuss the various
ways in which soft law and hard law inter-relate and
interact with each other. The skills that will be taught
include factual and legal analysis, issue spotting,
ethical evaluation, and legal writing. Students will also
emerge with greater career readiness and preparation to
advise clients with a deeper knowledge of soft law
governance mechanisms that apply to them.

Instructor(s): Green
Course Books: View List of Books
Course Description:
This course is about the tools that judges in our
tradition use to interpret written sources of law, like
statutes and regulations. What are those tools? Why do
judges use them? And how do they work in concrete cases?
Alongside these basic questions, we’ll consider (1)
debates about the relationship between the statute’s
text, it’s context of enactment, and the apparent
purposes or intentions of its authors; (2) the
“grammatical canons of construction,” and the so-called
“substantive canons”; (3) the role of legislative
history; (4) how federal statutes interact with one
another, and with prior judicial precedents construing
them; (5) the circumstances in which a federal court may
(or must) defer to an administrative agency’s
interpretation of a statute; and (6) when federal
statutes preempt state law.

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.

Instructor(s): Gibson
Course Books: View List of Books
Course Description:
With the increasing importance of intellectual property,
companies must take appropriate steps to protect and
maintain their valuable intellectual property. Much of
those efforts must arise in the area encompassed by the
intersection between intellectual property law and
employment law. Proper use of trade secrets and
restrictive covenants prevents unfair competition and
allows employers to protect their valuable intellectual
property, while still providing for mobility in the
workplace. This course will consider the law of trade
secrets, focusing on the principles set forth in the
Uniform Trade Secrets Act, the Restatement (Second) of
Torts, and the Restatement (Third) of Unfair Competition.
The second portion of the class will focus on the law of
restrictive covenants, with an emphasis on Arizona case
law and principles. Students will learn principles of
drafting effective restrictive covenants, non-disclosure
and confidentiality agreements, as well as an overview of
litigation strategies and techniques.

and equip students with trauma-responsive strategies when
encountering trauma in the practice of law. This course
will discuss trauma-informed approaches and tools to
navigate the challenges that trauma presents for clients
accessing their legal goals and to support building more

Instructor(s): Knapp;Aguilar;Kokanovich
Course Books: View List of Books
Course Description:
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 Books: View List of Books
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.
