A study of legal systems with emphasis upon the role of American courts and judges in administering justice and making law.

This will be an introduction to the American Judicial Process, courts and judges. You will learn about American law and the courts, judicial selection/ election, staffing the courts, courtrooms and juries, the structure of federal and state courts, the organization and function of the Supreme Court, judicial review, the internal decision making adjudication process and procedure. We will examine civil and criminal procedures and follow a mock case through the legal system.

Class Rules & Attendance The University of New Orleans International Summer School program has a mandatory class attendance policy. All students are required to attend class for all classes and any required lectures and field trips. No unexcused absences are allowed. However, UIBK students who have to miss a UNO class due to UIBK examinations in the first two weeks of our program, can receive one excused absence for this. Any further unexcused class days will result in an academic penalty. Each faculty member determines the penalty for missed classes. Most professors deduct a letter grade for each additional missed class day. For details, please refer to your course syllabi, which will be distributed on the first day of class.
