Please brief both cases by IRAC method followed by
answering at least two of the chapter problems at the end
of the cases.
How to Brief or IRAC a case:
Issue:
A good issue statement includes the party names, the name of the rule
of law the brief is analyzing, and a key fact. What is the issue before the court?
What Problem is the court trying to solve? The issue should be one or two
sentences, state the party names and the relevant legal terms.
Rule:
The rule is the law that governs the outcome of the case. It should be
stated as a general principle and not include any party names or facts. The
rule should be stated as a list or an outline- not in paragraph form.
Application:
The application is a discussion of how the rule applies to the facts of a case.
The application shows how you can analyze arguments on both sides and
is the most important skill you will learn. The application is normally paragraphs long.
It should be a written debate – not simply a statement of the conclusion. Whenever possible,
present both sides of any issue.
Conclusion:
What was the result of the case? Did the appellate or supreme court affirm,
reverse or reverse and remand the lower court?s decision? The case gives you a background
of the facts along with the judge?s reasoning and conclusion. When you brief cases,
you are summarizing the judge?s opinion.
