My British aunt and uncle's dog, Charlie, featured in the PowerPoint today on strict liability. Charlie wouldn't hurt a soul (even though he sometimes barks up a storm), so it would be unlikely my relatives could be sued under strict liability if he all of a sudden started biting someone.
Hi everyone,
Happy Halloween! It was fun to see everyone that dressed up today. I think we were able to get much more clear about what strict liability is, as well. On to the recap!
Soundtrack: “Thriller” by Michael Jackson. Selected because of it being Halloween related. Lyrics here.
AGENDA 10/31/13:

Torts Test Review
Homework: REVIEW! The torts final is next Wednesday. All late/makeup work needs to be in to me by 11/12 at the very latest. Read the blog. Next tort reports assigned to: Marissa and Randi.

Tort Report: The two articles selected for today were TheIndianaLawyer.com - Defense firm appeals $277M verdict for Humvee maker (Marsuk) and Tennessean.com - Woman's $350,000 civil suit details sexual contact by TN probation officer (Luke). Thank you both!
Chapter 21 Review: For the first 15 minutes or so of class, students answered the questions posed in Chapter 21 of the Street Law textbook (except 21.4 and 21.6). We then went over the answers to most of the questions together, before moving on.
Strict Liability PowerPoint: Short and to the point. This was almost identical to what the book had to say, but hopefully I was able to explain it in a way that made it make more sense. Here it is to download/look at, if you want:
I will also post all the other tort related PowerPoints below.
Torts Test Review: Again, you have a huge torts test next Wednesday. This is not a surprise. I passed out a review in class - we will go over it next Monday. If you missed class or lost the paper, here it is to download:
Many of the questions on that guide will be on the test. Some of them we did not go over in class, so I will make sure to explain the answers on Monday. Here are the PowerPoints that might help with studying over the weekend. Your notebooks should help, as well.
Please be studying! Next class, we will play Jeopardy to review, which should be pretty fun. Have a great and safe Halloween weekend!
