Remember in each assigment there is usually a "case" which is given, or cited. You MUST read and understand these cases and use them in answering your assingments. Please do not start out with "It is my opinion" instead quote the legal rules, the facts, and the Court finding (i.e. who won the case). It is very good to start out with who won the case and why - that makes your instructor happy. Also do not just copy and paste phrases from the case, you must paraphrase and use your own words along with the "court words" or "key words" from the case, which you should put in "quotation marks" -

work hard and enjoy the class. prof.J.

Review the evidentiary objections at http://www.millbury.k12.ma.us/hs/law/rulesofevidence.html

Then summarize each objection, post the actual objection, and the reason or rationale behind each objection (that is, what or whose interests are we protecting by this objection).

good luck. Prof. Rose.
