ASSIGNMENT #3 (Owley’s Property Class Spring 2016)

For assignment #3 on Gifts, you will be completing the assignment outlined in the Medill book pages 13-20. The only difference is that instead of filing out the sheet in the workbook, you will be typing it up and submitting a document via UB Learns. This assignment is due Monday March 7, 2016 at 9am via UB Learns. The assignment asks you to do a “Client Counseling Outline.” This is not a document that you have learned how to draft in your legal research and writing class. Do the best you can with the guidance provided. Adopt a professional tone and think about it as forming the basis for something you might prepare for the client or share with a colleague. There is no need to do any research outside your course materials nor do I expect you to spend more than two hours on it.

You may also find it useful to keep this code of professional conduct in mind when working on the assignment:

A lawyer shall not counsel a client to engage, or assist a client, in conduct that the lawyer knows is criminal or fraudulent, but a lawyer may discuss the legal consequences of any proposed course of conduct with a client and may counsel or assist a client to make a good faith effort to determine the validity, scope, meaning or application of the law.

“Fraud” or “fraudulent” denotes conduct that is fraudulent under the substantive or procedural law of the applicable jurisdiction and has a purpose to deceive.

I know that the syllabus says that you should bring your Medill book to class on Monday but I have decided not to use the book. The best way to prepare for the assignment is to study what we have discussed on Found Property.
