Constitutional Rights of the Accused
In this course we will research developments in constitutional law, including issues involving the Fourth Amendment right against unreasonable search and seizure, the Fifth Amendment right to remain silent, and the Sixth Amendment right to counsel. Students will be paired in teams and presented with factual scenarios, requiring them to research constitutional issues and draft motions and memoranda. Each student will present legal arguments in a courtroom before a panel of judges. (American Politics)/
