Assigned court cases will reinforce the key concepts learned in class.  Students will summarize their choice of the following court cases (or their own selection with pre-approval by the instructor), using the "FICA" model of analysis.  FICA stands for Fact, Issue, Conclusion, and Analysis and allows you to concisely summarize the conclusions of a court case. To summarize the case, follow these steps:

State the facts of the case in a clear and concise matter
Identify the issue(s)/laws at hand
State the conclusion of the court
Complete your analysis of the findings as presented in the case (answer the question: "why did the court rule this way on this issue?")
