Hey 1Ls, 

BACK BY POPULAR DEMAND!

Here's my audio outline for Prof. Kloempken's Legal Research

Fall Semester Exam! (Students with other Legal Research professors used it last

year for the final and gave positive feedback as well). In it, you'll find (almost!)

everything you need to know in order to be a LEGAL RESEARCH GOD!  

Cautionary Tale: I originally recorded the vast majority of this

content two years ago, based off of a study guide that Prof. K distributed in

class. I cannot vouch for (a) it's currentness or (b) it's total clarity (I

didn't write the guide). You'll still have to do some leg work to make sure

everything I say is correct (it most likely is... I'm not out to sabotage you,

but I'm human and prone to the occasional slip-up. Perhaps if you get the study

guide again this year, listen to it the first time through with the study guide

in front of you!). Also, DO NOT RELY SOLEY ON THIS OUTLINE! Like any other old

outline, you'll want to supplement it with any additional material you learned

in class/ correct for any outdated facts, etc. Your power points and class

notes will be helpful for this!

 

Finally, I tend to be employ obnoxious accents sometimes when I

say certain words (like "Svengali book" and "Hein Online").

I may sound annoying saying those words, but you'll always remember them!  

Hope this helps! 

Much love,

Cary Simowitz (The Prince of Torts -- my totally facetious

codename)

Copyright note: I have borrowed altered 30 second snippets of

two songs in this podcast, credited after the show. I do not claim ownership, I

purchased them legally through iTunes, and I encourage you to do the same if

like them! (Nobody likes pirates). So please don't sue me! That would suck.

Peace out!
