PREREQUISITE: ENG 101 and PLS 100
In this course, students are trained to use a law library to solve basic problems in legal research. Materials such as cases, codes, and commentaries are used to develop effective legal research techniques. Students are expected to prepare cogent written summaries of their research finding in the form of case briefs, memoranda of law (both internal and external), and client opinion letters. Students will also learn the fundamental drafting techniques for instruments, pleadings, motions, and discovery documents.
