For this assignment, you will be drafting a Complaint based on a given scenario and responding to a question related to the Unit materials. Instructions: 1. Complaint: Introduction: Throughout this class you will be working on "real life" assignments involving the following accident scenario. The fictional case (with a fairly typical accident scenario) is based in Connecticut and we will follow Connecticut procedural rules. Since Post University is located in Connecticut and many students are from different states, I have selected Connecticut to be "the State" for purposes of these assignments. Rest assured, the skills you learn in this class will be transferable to your own state if you are not from Connecticut. You will be drafting a Complaint in Negligence for Personal Injuries based on the following scenario. The names of the parties, attorneys, and law firms are all fictional although the fact pattern of the accident is pretty common! To help you draft your complaint, you can refer to Connecticut Practice Book Sections 10-1, 10-2, and 10-8, a sample complaint in Negligence on page 137 of our textbook, and detailed directions set forth below. A 'perfect' Complaint is not expected. This is not law school. Please try your best to analyze the given fact pattern, include the relevant information, and pay particular attention to sentence structure, grammar, and punctuation.

We use a Return Date in Connecticut as a triggering date to determine deadlines such as completion of service, filing a Complaint, the defendant's filing an Appearance form and the first responsive pleading. I know this sounds confusing but I have selected the return date and will guide you through this process. Template: You are to use the following two Caption templates along with the title of the complaint. Do your best to follow the spacing of the Caption.
