The main goals are to help you identify and analyze ethics issues as soon as you begin working in a law office (including during law school), and to help you participate intelligently in discussing and interpreting the rules by which lawyers live. This is not a course in morality and is not an MPRE prep course.  \nClass Schedule: Class will meet on Mondays from 1:20 to 3:00 p.m. (20 minutes earlier than on the printed schedule) and on Wednesdays from 2:20-4:00 p.m. (10 minutes later than on the printed schedule) . This schedule will make it unnecessary to hold make-up classes for the five classes that I already know cannot be held at the scheduled times (see next item) .  \nDays Off: Class will not meet on the following days–please mark your calendars now: Wednesday, January24, Wednesday, February21, Wednesday, March 21, Monday, April 9th (the day after Spring Break ends), and Wednesday, April 18.  \nLichtenstein Lecture: The annual Lichtenstein Lecture will be delivered by Mary Daly, Dean ofSt. John’s University School of Law, on Wednesday, February 14th from 12:10 - 1:10 p.m., and attendance at that lecture will be required. We will also have class that day as scheduled.  \nThe Multistate Professional Responsibility Exam(“MPRE”): TheMPRE, a multiple choice exam covering abroad range ofprofessionalresponsibility issues, is required for bar admission in more than forty states, including New York, New Jersey, and Connecticut. It is given three times a year (March, August, andNovember) . I strongly encourage you to take theMPRE on Saturday, March 10, 2007. The normal application deadline for the March 10th test is January 30th ; the Late Application Receipt Deadline (which will cost you extra money) is February 15th.

The material from this)[ The material from this](http://www.ncbex.org/multistate-tests/mpre/. The material from this) course will help you on the MPRE, and studying for the MPRE will help you in this course. Plus, you’ll have one less thing to worry about regarding bar admission. However, my course is not tailored to the MPRE, so I encourage you to take an MPRE preparation course as well.  \nFinal Exam: The final exam in this course will be CLOSED BOOK and will consist of essay or shortanswer questions. Some of my old final exams (and answers to two exams) are posted on TWEN under “Old Final Exams.”  \nWritten Assignments: I may occasionally give written assignments. Written assignments may or may not be graded, but they will be required. Failure to complete a required assignment in a satisfactory manner may result in a lower final grade or other negative consequences.  \nAttendance and Preparation: Attendance and preparation are required. Being unprepared when called on is counted as an absence. You should not miss more than four classes during the entire semester. You also should never miss two classes in a row, because then you miss both the discussion of a topic at the first class and any review ofthat topic at the next class. If you miss class frequently or are unprepared several times, I may lower your grade appropriately, or in severe cases ask the Registrar to remove you from the course involuntarily.  \nMy attendance rules are based on the rules ofthe New York State Court ofAppeals, the American Bar Association, and Hofstra Law School i","cbCaiv7VR70ek4jU","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiv7VR70ek4jU","pdf",68475,"English","# Course Purpose\n# Class Schedule and Days Off\n# Lichtenstein Lecture\n# MPRE Requirement and Registration\n# Final Exam and Written Assignments\n# Attendance and Preparation\n## Absence Limits and Compliance\n## Disciplinary Consequences and Accommodations","[{\"question\":\"What is the purpose of the course?\",\"answer\":\"The course studies problems a practicing lawyer will face and introduces issues the profession will debate.
