    The paper will be one where you compare TWO significant cases related to criminal
    procedures.  These cases will come from your research of constitutional issues noted below
     You will use the case brief guidelines to help compare the two cases which will have similar legal issues. The Constitution  and the 4, 5, 6, and 8th amendments arethe key documents you will use as well as the cases which you will have either from the text or an TU Library online source. Make sure you use the case number/year for case written about. This is an actual  “judge ruled” case with a court number and not one of public opinion such as “OJ or “Casey” or “Trevon/Zimmerman”. DO NOT use cases noted in discussion boards or used in assignments.

    ised.
