NEW COURSES BEING OFFERED - FALL 2014

COMMUNITY JUSTICE CLINIC: The Community Justice Clinic provides legal services for non-profit, religious or community organizations who are working to promote justice and to develop opportunities and resources for vulnerable, underserved people and communities. Under faculty supervision, students provide corporate counsel and services, including formation, governance and compliance counsel, and students will advocate for clients, including research, writing, advice and direct representation. With intensive classroom instruction and guidance, students will learn and apply substantive law, interview clients and evaluate matters, draft and file legally operative documents, research and analyze law and policy, advise and counsel clients, make oral and written presentations to clients and constituents, and provide direct representation for clients before courts, governmental bodies and regulators, and in negotiations and mediation. CRIMINAL JUSTICE DISPUTE RESOLUTION PRACTICUM: Students will work with teens in probation at the L.A. County Sheriff’s facility at Camp Gonzalez and adults at the L.A. County Jail to teach peacemaking and dispute resolution as a part of coordinated efforts to reduce recidivism and to promote better outcomes through the criminal justice system. Students will receive intensive training in peacemaking and dispute resolution, and then will assist in teaching and training the teens in detention at Camp Gonzalez and adults at the L.A. County Jail these skills and virtues. Students will develop knowledge and insight into the criminal justice and juvenile justice systems, develop critical cultural competence, and develop skills and virtues of dispute resolution. FEDERAL CRIMINAL PRACTICE PRACTICUM: Students rotate through the United States Attorney’s Office, the Federal Public Defender’s Office and U.S. District Court to receive a comprehensive experience at work in federal criminal practice. At each placement, students will observe pre-trial and trial practice and proceedings, will assist on the work of cases and will produce a substantive written project in the course of their work under supervision. Students will work regularly on site at each placement and may work on projects outside of regular work sessions at the direction of their field supervisors; students should plan to work at least 14 hours per week in the course. Law faculty specializing in criminal law and procedure will serve as advisors to students and will meet periodically to guide the students in their work and to ensure that the experience is meaningful. Students receive credit and grades based on their work product, field supervisor’s evaluations and successful completion of course requirements. FIRST AMENDMENT FREEDOMS OF SPEECH, RELIGION AND RELATED RIGHTS: This course will explore major areas of free speech law and related rights, as well as those associated with the freedom of religion. Although the coverage of specific topics may vary, general areas of coverage may include lesser-protected forms of speech such as obscene content, fighting words and threats, and commercial advertising, fully-protected forms of speech, symbolic expression, the government regulating speech in special capacities such as the manager of public lands or public schools, the freedom not to speak, the right of expressive association and the right not to associate, restrictions on campaign spending and fundraising, special rights pertaining to the news media, the free exercise of religion, and laws respecting government establishment of religion. Special attention will be given to the U.S. Supreme Court's treatment of these areas, including the history, doctrines, policies and theories underlying them, and other factors that may influence the Court's interpretation of the Constitution with respect to these topics. GOVERNMENT POLICY AND THE REGULATION OF ENTERTAINMENT AND SPORTS: This course focuses on the impact of the federal legislative process on the entertainment, sports and gaming industries. Students will learn the basics of legislation in these areas, crisis management, and congressional investigations through practical, problem-solving exercises. This course is designed to be equally instructive to the student who intends: to pursue an entrepreneurial business path in the entertainment and sports fields; to enter the corporate workforce; or to join the traditional practice of law. Practical problem-solving exercises in the course will involve a fictitious entertainment entity which will have a real-world legal, business, or regulatory problem, and students will design a plan to solve that problem with an effective and comprehensive public policy advocacy strategy.

NEW COURSES BEING OFFERED - FALL 2014 (continued)

LEGAL SPANISH: This course is designed to give law students an understanding of how to effectively communicate with Spanish-speaking clients in a variety of legal representation settings covering multiple substantive topics. Students will gain an effective knowledge of the legal terminology frequently used in representing Spanish-speaking clients, participate in mock interviews, and prepare a final presentation on a topic of substantive law in Spanish at the end of course. Those wishing to take this course should be comfortable speaking and understanding Spanish. The course will be taught in Spanish and participants will be expected to speak and complete assignments in Spanish. NINTH CIRCUIT APPELLATE ADVOCACY CLINIC: The Ninth Circuit Appellate Advocacy Clinic provides direct representation in prisoner rights (Sec. 1983) appellate cases pending in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit. Under the Clinic Director’s supervision, student activities may include studying ethical and practice issues, reviewing court records, interviewing clients, evaluating cases, researching legal issues, developing appellate theories, writing appellate briefs, and arguing appellate cases under special Circuit rules for clinics meeting the Court’s standards. Units of credit are based on 52.5 hours of work per credit. VIDEO GAME LAW: This course encompasses all relevant legal aspects (both fundamental and controversial) of the rapidly expanding video game industry. Topics include asset acquisition, intellectual property issues, trade secrecy, contracts and licenses, end-user rights, anti-competitive practices, and governmental regulation of games with respect to sex, nudity, and violence, as well as products liability, negligence, and misappropriation claims arising from the sale and distribution of modern computer games. WINE LAW: Wine Law examines the foundational regulations, diverse fields of law, and fundamental transactions encountered in a modern wine law practice. Students are provided primary instruction at the outset of the course from guest industry lecturers to develop comprehension of basic industry processes, core terminology and key elements of the grape to glass product cycle. Thereafter, the course explores the historical development of America’s alcoholic beverage laws, the significant tenets of our modern day regulatory framework, and the legal and practical considerations faced by industry stakeholders and practicing attorneys in common industry transactions. Specific topics include: vineyard/winery site selection, acquisition, development and management; vineyard leasing and grape contracts; business models and contractual relationships for wine production; licensing, compliance, and prohibited trade practices; labeling; AVA’s; trademarks; brokerage, distribution, and importation; direct to consumer shipping; and international trade. Students also have the opportunity to participate in off-site hands-on instruction at local facilities and properties on the subjects of viticulture, enology, and the mechanics of vineyard operations and production facilities.

REVISED COURSE TITLES AND DESCRIPTIONS - FALL 2014 A SUPREME VIEW OF BANKRUPTCY (previously titled Creditor’s Rights and Bankruptcy): This course will consider consumer and business bankruptcy issues, primarily through the lens of Supreme Court decisions. (The course will consider Chapter 11 business reorganizations and Chapter 9 municipal bankruptcies, like Detroit’s, but will not focus on them.) The Court continues, term after term, to issue decisions dealing with central concepts of bankruptcy law, as it interprets the federal Bankruptcy Code and the Constitution. For example, how do we provide a fresh start (but not a “head start”) to the honest but unfortunate individual debtor? When should a debtor be denied a discharge (“forgiveness”) of some or all debts? Can student loans be discharged (without the debtor’s attorney being sanctioned for misconduct)? To what degree will we protect secured creditors (like mortgage holders)? When should a debtor be required to pay something on debts in a Chapter 13 plan rather than be allowed simply to discharge the debts in a quick Chapter 7 case? Is Congress’s Article I bankruptcy power “special,” so that it overrides state sovereign immunity? Bankruptcy judges do not have the protections specified for federal judges in Article III of the Constitution; has Congress given bankruptcy judges much more authority than the Constitution permits? Looking to the future, how much further will the Court go in upsetting a system that handles more federal cases than any other kind of federal tribunal? For purposes of requirements such as those for the LLM with a concentration in International Commercial Law and Arbitration, this course will be considered the equivalent of Law 1103 (Creditors’ Rights & Bankruptcy).

REVISED COURSE TITLES AND DESCRIPTIONS - FALL 2014 (continued)

CHRISTIAN PERSPECTIVES ON LAW AND LAW PRACTICE (previously titled Christian Perspectives on the Law): Christians have a variety of views on law and law practice. For some, law and law practice are inherently coercive and corrupting and not something in which Christians should participate. Others think law is an appropriate occupation, but that Christian faith has nothing to say to it. Still others believe that every aspect of life, including law, can be done in a way that brings glory to God. This course will explore each of these views and will ask what place Christian faith should have in law and law practice. LAW AND RELIGION (previously titled Law and Religion Seminar): This semester the course will be dedicated to examining the origin of American religious liberty; in particular, whether it is anchored in reason and the Enlightenment or is a product of the separation of church and state and the view that government does faith no favor when it seeks to use civil power to advance religion. To what extent can religious argument be made and be effective in the public square and in the courts of law? To what degree does advocacy of a religious justification for a particular legislative proposal compete with or displace the role of a faith to change or transform the heart of a believer? What happens when religion loses in the political process; should it still be eligible for exemption? Assuming that a fair majoritarian determination is the essence of democracy why should a religion, with the exception of perhaps the most internal of its processes and its selection of personnel, understand the majority denial of exemption to be a denial of religious freedom? Does government have an obligation to avoid having to proceed to take a position contrary to large numbers of its population in matters of faith? Where does that obligation come from and what is its scope? LAW PRACTICE MANAGEMENT AND BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT (previously titled Law Office Management): This course is designed to provide practical skills on how to form and operate your own law firm, as well as how to succeed as an associate in a law firm setting. The course opens with a look at the formation of law firms, how law firms are managed, recruiting, business planning and startup funding. The course also focuses on the important practical subject of business development and marketing for attorneys, which is critical to success in private practice, whether in a large, medium or small/solo law firm. The course will emphasize that business development is not a series of random acts, but a process with specific steps that can be taken to generate business. Students will learn about creating a vision for their practice, effective marketing strategies tailored to their individual talents and strengths, how to develop referrals, and how to create a system for business development. Guest speakers will share how they have developed a successful practice. The course will also introduce law firm accounting, including billing, collections, associate compensation and profit distribution, as well as methods for improving the firm's bottom line and long-term viability. Malpractice liability, malpractice insurance and ethical issues facing attorneys in day-to-day practice are also covered. CONTRACT PRACTICE UNDER U.C.C. ARTICLE 2 AND THE U.N. CONVENTION (CISG) (previously titled Commercial Law-Sales): This course will take a practical approach to contracts that are governed by U.C.C. Article 2 or by the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods. Contracts for sale of goods, whether shoes or jetliners or carrots or millions of cubic feet of natural gas, are central to our economy (and figure prominently on the bar exam). We will follow realistic transactions from beginning to end – from negotiations and contract formation all the way to resolution of claims of breach. Students will be expected to deal with problems like those they will encounter in practice. The course will reinforce and build upon the students’ understanding of general contract principles from the first year Contracts course. For purposes of requirements such as those for the Certificate in Law & Entrepreneurship and the LLM with a concentration in International Commercial Law and Arbitration, this course will be considered the equivalent of Law 1893 (Commercial Law-Sales).

FALL 2014

Clinical and Externship Courses Notes Clinics: Students receive credit for the scheduled, required class sessions and for work in the clinic under faculty supervision. In the Legal Aid, Special Education, and Ninth Circuit Appellate Advocacy clinics students and professors will determine the work schedule for students in the clinics. The Community Justice and the Special Education Advocacy Clinic meet and work primarily on-campus in the clinical suite. In the Ninth Circuit Appellate Advocacy Clinic, students must apply and register only with approval of the professor, and students must commit to working two terms in the clinic. In the Legal Aid Clinic, students will work primarily at the Union Rescue Mission in downtown Los Angeles. In the Ninth Circuit Appellate Advocacy Clinic, students will work primarily with the professor at his firm in Encino. All classes will be at the School of Law. The Fair Employment and Housing Mediation Clinic will be housed in the Mediation Division at California’s civil rights enforcement agency, The Department of Fair Employment and Housing. There may be potential employment opportunities with this placement. The Department hires a Civil Rights Fellow for a year fellowship after law school and approximately 50% of Fellows are retained for permanent employment in the litigation department. This class requires a special application. Anyone interested in participating should speak with Professor Stephanie Bell in the Straus Office. In the Mediation Clinic students have the opportunity to mediate actual disputes. The Mediation Clinic will require 2 hours of class time weekly (scheduled) and approximately 8 hours of fieldwork per week. Students are advised to leave two time blocks (2 mornings, 2 afternoons or 1 of each) in their schedule to accommodate mediations at various courthouses throughout Los Angeles County. All clinical courses are graded as High Pass/Pass/Credit/Fail. Externships: Students interested in participating in an externship in the Fall 2014 term should contact Prof. Baker, Director of Clinical Education, at [email protected], or Donna Brabec, Clinical Programs Administrator at [email protected]. Students may not register themselves for externship courses but must complete the requisite paperwork and must receive approval from Prof. Baker to register for an externship. Students must register for an externship by the deadline for add/drop; students who secure a field placement after the add/drop deadline may only enroll for up to 2 units of credit and must secure a faculty advisor. Each unit of externship credit requires 52.5 hours of work at the student’s field placement, and students must register in advance for the number of units for which they will work. Students may earn up to 4 units in entertainment and in-house placements, up to 10 units in judicial placements, and up to 6 units in all other placements, or more with permission of the Vice Dean or the Director of Clinical Education. Students must also attend mandatory, bi-weekly externship workshops during the term of their first externship, and the time spent in workshops may count toward the students’ required time in the field. Students who are taking externships for the second or third term are not required to attend the workshops. The Director of Clinical Education must approve all field placements in advance of registration. In general, field placements qualify for externship credit if the student is engaged in legal work, under the supervision of a licensed attorney, not for pay, in judicial, governmental, public interest or public service law offices. Field placements in in-house counsel offices in entertainment and other corporate offices may also qualify. Work in private, for-profit law firms does not qualify unless the student’s work is exclusively on pro bono matters. All externships are graded as High Pass/Pass/Credit/Fail. Externships taken for 3 units or more fulfill the upper-division skills requirement.
