A friend in another state who is an adjunct and practicing lawyer (as I am) and I were talking this weekend. I recommended a particular 9th Cir case as one that he might use to illustrate the point he is trying to make in class about the EP clause. He said, "That's a great idea. We ought to use more circuit cases. Most con law cases are easy to decide; its the hard ones that get to the Supreme Court. If you are trying to teach the rules for deciding con law cases, the circuit decisions often lay this out very well."
I wonder if any others have tried this approach. -- Edward Still attorney, mediator, arbitrator 2112 11th Ave S., Suite 541 Birmingham AL 35205 www.votelaw.com/blog www.edwardstill.com www.linkedin.com/in/edwardstill
