1. You should choose a legal topic that you are interested in. It can be a topic that we have/will
cover in this course, but you are allowed to choose any legal topic that you wish.
2. If you have difficulty choosing a topic please feel free to discuss with me. I will give you several
alternatives to research. You do not have to have your topic approved.
3. Your paper should include, but is not necessarily limited to:
a. A factual summary/description of the legal topic.
b. A historical analysis of your legal topic.
c. At least 3 relevant cases that are integral to your legal topic and a brief of each.
d. Give your opinion of the topic, its history, and what you think the future might bring
for your topic.
