Choose one or two areas of law from your book that we have covered in the course.
Prepare an overview of that area of law. Your paper must be at least three (3) pages long but should be no longer than five (5) pages.
Write the paper as if you were explaining the area of the law to a fellow UNCP student who asked about that area of law who was not enrolled in this class. For example, if you were on the UNCP campus, and a student said to you, “Explain contracts law to me,” your paper would be an attempt, in 3-5 pages, to answer that question.
Discuss a case or cases from that area of law within your paper to illustrate key areas of the law. This is OPTIONAL, but will improve your grade. The more notable the case, the better your paper will be. Also, if you can find a North Carolina case or cases which discuss or explain how North Carolina implements that area of the law, this will be an additional boost to your paper. (Hint: Search on Google Scholar for North Carolina cases related to your area of the law.)
