Civil Procedure II #5: Discovery I

One of the fundamental purposes of the Federal Rules is to have suits be decided on the merits. To that end, extensive compulsory fact sharing is afforded either party under the umbrella term "discovery." This episode will walk through the discovery mechanisms of initial disclosures, document inspections, interrogatories, depositions, physical and mental examinations, and requests for admissions.Download the episode (36:00)...

Criminal Law #6: Strict Liability

Sometimes a material element of a crime, or perhaps even all of the material elements of a crime, will lack a mens rea requirement. This is known as strict liability. Under what circumstances is this allowable? In this episode we will also examine vicarious liability.Download the episode (24:46)...

Criminal Law #5: Mistake of Fact

Constitutional Law II #8: Casey and Stare Decisis

After nearly two decades of protest and dissent, Roe is re-examined. Or is it? The meaning and scope of stare decisis is disputed between the those who would abandon Roe and start fresh, and those who would hold on to the general concept of Roe while re-formulating the law.Because I examine both the plurality and the dissent in detail, the length of this episode is significantly greater than normal.Download the episode (50:22)...
