ASSIGNMENT ON HOW IGNORANCE OF THE LAW CAN BE COSTLY Write a short paper (it can be as short as two pages) about how you or someone you know got hurt because of ignorance of the law. If you cannot think of someone who got hurt because of ignorance of the law, write about how someone you know got hurt in a law-related way because of poor judgment. Or you can even write about how someone you know had a bad experience with the law through no fault of his or her own. Perhaps, for example, you know someone who was treated unfairly by the legal system after being the victim of a crime or being falsely accused of a crime. If you come from another country, you can write about something that happened there. You might, for example compare how the legal systems of your own country and the United States differed in response to the same sort of event or problem. If you feel that your own country had a better approach. it is perfectly okay to say so and explain why. The only restriction is that your paper must be about something that actually happened. Try to answer this question: What moral or lesson might you draw from the incident you have written about? Also, pay careful attention to your English. Your paper should be grammatical, correctly spelled, divided into paragraphs of proper size, and read as a smoothly flowing, organized whole. Always remember It you want to be taken seriously as a college graduate and an educated person, the first thing you will be judged by will be your command of basic English. People who are put off by your poor grammar and spelling, for instance, will likely not care one bit about what your ideas are
