To complete this assignment, read a Supreme Court decision and answer some questions about it. I would recommend familiarizing with the questions prior to reading the case. Each question should be answered in paragraph form, paying close attention to grammar, professionalism, and the accuracy of information in your answer. One sentence answers will not be sufficient. Ideally, each answer would be a short or medium size paragraph.
