LECTURE |OUTLINE
1. Discuss |the |Twisdale |case |that |opens |this |chapter. |It |provides |an |interesting |vehicle
|for | discussing |the |functions |of |law |and |legal |interpretation.
a. Have |your |students |identify |the |various |functions |of |the |law |and |then |discuss |which
| specific |functions |are |furthered |by |this |antiretaliation | aspects |of |the |Civil |Rights
|statute.
b. In |the |context |of |legal |interpretation, |the |court |found |that | Twisdale |did |seem |to |be
| protected |based |on |the |literal |language |of |the |statute. |However, |it |looked |beyond
|the | plain | meaning |to |reject |his |claim. |Specifically, |the |court |believed |that
|interpreting |the | law |in |a | manner |that |would |protect |him |from |retaliation | would
|undermine |the |purpose |ofthe | statute. | It |is |conceivable |that |the |court |is |motivated |by
|public |policy |concerns |as |well.
c. What |do |your |students |think |of |courts |who |do |look |at |intent |and |public |policy? |Use
|thisas | a |lead-in |for |a |discussion |of |legal |jurisprudence.
2. Question |students |about |their |definitions |of |―law.‖ |Make |certain |they |understand
|the | importance |of |law |in |all |aspects |of |our | lives.
3. Discuss |the |various |functions |that |law |serves |in |society. |You |might |do |this |by |having
|the | students |identify |some |of |them.
a. Discuss |the |conflicts |that |arise |between |and |among |the |various |functions |of |law. |For
| example, |there |often |are |conflicts |between |the |goals |of |individual |freedom |and
|achieving | social |justice. |Note |the |problems |that |arise |when |there |is |no | clear |consensus
|on |what |is |just.
b. Ask |the |students |if |they |think |that |law |ever |is |―overused.‖ |They |are |likely |to |cite
|numerous | examples. |For |instance, |this |might |be |a |time |to |talk |about |the |product
|liabilitycases |that |are | regularly |in |the |headlines. |Perhaps |the |case |involving |the
|woman |who |burned |herself |with | coffee |from |McDonald’s |would |be |appropriate
|here.
