LECTURE OUTLINE
v




1. Discuss the Twisdale case that opens this chapter. It provides an interesting vehicle for
v v v v v v v v v v v v v




vdiscussing the functions of law and legal interpretation.
v v v v v v v




a. Have your students identify the various functions of the law and then discuss which specific
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v




functions are furthered bythis antiretaliation aspects of the Civil Rights statute.
v v v v v v v v v v v v




b. In the context of legal interpretation, the court found that Twisdale did seem to be protected
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v




based on the literal language of the statute. However, it looked beyond the plain meaning
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v




to reject his claim. Specifically, the court believed that interpreting the law in a manner that
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v




would protect him from retaliation would undermine the purpose ofthe statute. It is
v v v v v v v v v v v v v




conceivable that the court is motivated by public policy concerns as well.
v v v v v v v v v v v v




c. What do your students think of courts who do look at intent and public policy? Use thisas a
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v




lead-in for a discussion of legal jurisprudence.
v v v v v v v




2. Question students about their definitionsof ―law.‖ Make certain they understandthe
v v v v v v v v v v v




importance of law in all aspects of our lives.
v v v v v v v v v




3. Discuss the various functions that law serves in society. You might do this by having the
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v




vstudents identify some of them.v v v v




a. Discuss the conflicts that arise between and among the various functions of law. For example,
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v




there often are conflicts between the goals of individual freedom and achieving social justice.
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v




Note the problems that arise when there is no clear consensus on what is just.
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v




b. Ask the students if theythinkthat law ever is ―overused.‖ Theyare likelyto cite numerous
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v




examples. For instance, this might be a time to talk about the product liabilitycases that are
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v




regularly in the headlines. Perhaps the case involving the woman who burned herself with
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v




coffee from McDonald’s would be appropriate here.
