investigate in detail a legal issue faced by a particular industry or profession

students will take the opportunity to investigate in detail a legal issue faced by a particular industry or profession. For these purposes, a research project should entail the use of only primary and secondary legal sources. Good papers should be well written, well researched and well documented. Under most circumstances, the paper should follow the structural template that has been provided. It is suggested that you discuss the topic with the instructor, begin early in the term, and organize your approach. The instructor is also happy to review and comment upon outlines and early drafts on a no-grade basis, if such is delivered on a timely basis. However, the assumption that students can manage their time over the term is being made. Papers should be 4-5 pages in length.

here are sources recommended by the professor to find the cases

Harvard has made this database available:

https://case.law/ (Links to an external site.)

I also recommend one from Indiana University:

https://caselaw.findlaw.com/

Google has cases, but it is very noisy

Also on the attachment there’s topic suggestions by the professor for the topic, personally i would go with number 10 but its fine to chose any. + a good example of how to write the assignment from old student + outline for the assignment.
