LAW 531 WEEK 1
The Legal System and ADR Analysis
Review Exhibit 2.1: Typical State Court System.
Assume that the higher on this chart the case is the more expensive it
is for all parties.
Write a memo on a state (not federal) level business dispute. Write the
paper for your boss, who wants to know how a case like the one you
have chosen would be processed throughout the various legal phases
in a state court system. Ensure you that you cover all the phases of
a case in the state court system.
Because most cases never make it to trial, it is also important to
consider alternative methods of dispute resolution (ADR). Suppose your
selected case was initially submitted to ADR. What methods of ADR
would be available to pursue? Which of these ADR methods do you
think would be the most appropriate? Why?
Required elements:
- Phases of a state court trial
- Methods of ADR available
- Most appropriate ADR
- Discuss the differences in costs and benefits of going through
traditional litigation and pursuing ADR in this case (Consider for
example, why one of the parties in the case you’re looking at may have
preferred keeping the case out of court).
- No more than 700 words.
- Format is consistent with APA guidelines.
- You must have a minimum of 4 academic references. Please review
my instructor policies for my definition of an academic reference.
