Ruth Ginsburg Writing Response

 

Greeting Card ...

Be reminded that you are well-served to rely upon the five-paragraph funnel method formula when provided with an expository writing prompt.  You are required to write a response to the following prompt:  

Write a legal brief that claims that women are entitled to compensation for the systemic discrimination that they have endured throughout time.   Your memorandum must include arguments, legal reasoning, and supporting evidence to persuade the judge or jury to rule in the favor of your opinion.  

A legal brief is often written before a case is ever tried in the American justice system.  

A legal brief (also called a memorandum of law or brief of law) is a written document submitted to a court that presents arguments, legal reasoning, and supporting evidence to persuade a judge or jury to rule in favor of a party’s position. It is a fundamental tool in litigation and appellate practice.

You will submit your response to Google Classroom at the end of class today whether you complete the writing or not.
