This will include the rule(s) of law the court applied. It is this section where you discuss in detail why the court made its ruling by applying the law the court used to the facts of the case. Do not include your opinion in this section, just focus on the decision of the court.

1. Re-read the Gonzales v. Raich case
2. State the court's reasoning for therationalesection of your brief.

Rationale: (What legal reasoning formed the court's decision? What rules of law, for example, did it apply? How did it interpret legal principles or documents? How did it construe the facts? In other words, why did the court reached its decision? This should always be the longest section of the brief since this is the only actual discussion of legal theory. Must be written in past tense as it had already happened.
