Order Description

App Assignment
You will be arguing the position of the side you were assigned on the App List.
There is no specific formula or model. I would suggest the following: Facts, Law, and Argument.
Your first section should be the facts in a light that supports your position. You may make reasonable factual inferences. You may not make up facts.
The second part should be what Issue we are arguing about and what the legal test for determining how a court should rule.
Then make an argument as to why you should win applying the facts to the law.

For example, if you were arguing the Meram vs. McDonald for the guy that made the “offer” you would want to say that he was making a presentation to a crowd. You could

infer that as a public speaker, he made jokes to keep the crown involved. That one of those joke was…….

Then you explain what the law is, that under the Objective Theory of Contracts, an offer is an offer if the Reasonable Person would think an Offer had been make and

explain it a little more.
You may also want to make an argument that the Offer wasn’t sufficiently definite. Tell what the rule is.
Then explain why you should win applying the facts to the law.
