Professor Douglas Moll

Beware the duck call.

Professor Lisa McElroy

I am now 3 days into BarBri and it's not so bad. It's not exactly fast paced yet. This here lecturer covered Con Law and Torts. If you take the pre-tests, DO NOT look at the answers to those questions. If you do, you will be bored to tears during the lectures covering the same material.

Red Judicata

This court refers to the "affirmative defense of red judicata and collateral estoppel." Red judicata is like res judicata, only red.

Dean James Rasband; Hugh W. Colton Professor of Law

Dean Rasband teaches a class on public lands and natural resources. His lectures often raise controversial issues, which in turn trigger entertaining comments from the class. My favorite comment, duly noted in my class notes, was this zoological gem: "That's how it happens with monkeys. The monkey that can forage the best is the monkey that can beat all the other monkeys out of its lands." I'm not sure what that means, you might want to check the recordings for January 14, 2010.

PRINCE, YEATES & GELDZAHLER

Mr. Adam S. Affleck, of Prince, Yeates & Geldzahler, argues on a motion for summary judgment. In this case, the crucial issue was a very important coma which was omitted in a very important legal filing. By way of random example, "LLC & M, L.L.C." and "LLC & M. L.L.C." are two distinct entities registered in Utah (see the coma?). The motion for summary judgment was granted.
