LAWU 4053 The American Legal System


(3 hours)
Examines the basic structure of the U.S. legal system. Students explore how the main sources of U.S. law (the Constitution, statutory law, administrative regulations, and judicial decisions) intertwine to define and regulate specific legal institutions. Students will discuss not only legal concepts, but also how these concepts actually operate in the world.
