Course Description

This is a legal writing course designed to enhance skills around a specialized topic. Students will apply these skills and polish their existing legal analysis and communication skills through preparing (1) a dissenting opinion in response to an existing majority opinion, (2) a \"revised\" version of an existing opinion, (3) a written \"commentary\" that places another student's revised opinion (and the original opinion to which it is reacting) in context, and (4) oral presentations of both the revised opinion and the commentary.
