PL 301--Torts
In class today, Monday 9/14, I distributed one handout, the Superior Court decision in the case of Smith v. Central Maine Power, and we went over some of that case. We went over the concept of negligence per se, and then discussed the Exercises at the end of Chapter 2 of the text. We also talked about the concept of breach of duty. The assignment for Wednesday, 9/16 is to write up a case brief of the Smith v. CMP case. Use the Case Brief template as much as possible, but since this is a trial court decision, some of the template will not apply. I will collect the case briefs, but I will not grade this assignment.
