PL 305--Legal Ethics
In class tonight, Thursday 2/4, I distributed 5 handouts: a model brief of in re Moore, a casebrief template, a blank brief, MRPC 1.6, and MRE 502. We discussed the lines regarding the giving of legal advice by paralegals, and went over the Moore case, and how to brief it. We spent the last part of class in the computer lab, going over some basic research techniques in westlaw. The assignment for Thursday 2/11 is to read Chapter 4 of the text, read the handouts of the Maine rules regarding privilege and confidentiality, and write a brief of the HPD Lab case in the text on p. 138. The brief should follow the format of the sample brief. This brief will not be graded.
