Econ/Mgt 335v Fall 2018
Writing Assignment Up to 100 points (same as an Exam).
Deadline: No later than 6:00 pm, Friday, via Email in Canvas. Put your name in the filename (e.g., jose_martins_econ335.doc)
Step 1: Go to this webpage: http://www.justice.gov/atr/antitrust-case-filings-alpha
Select one case in which the website provides several related documents (newer cases within the last ten years will tend to have more documents). Here is an example of one that contains enough information to get started on your paper: http://www.justice.gov/atr/case/us-v-american-bar-association Try to select a more recent case because you are likely to find more information online regarding the case (such as news articles).
Step 2: Read the case documents and do some independent research for other information or perspectives on the case. For example, google it to find news reports and journal articles.
Step 3: Write a paper on the case (4-5 pages, double-spaced) in MICROSOFT WORD. Any submissions not written in Microsoft Word will receive a score of zero. Your paper will be organized to include the following sections; put a title on your paper, the legal name of the case (Ex. U.S. v. American Bar Association), your name, and each of these numbered sections. You should abbreviate the section headings (for example, Section 1. Overview of the Case.):
1. Overview of the case: including a description of the alleged illegal business practice(s) and who were the participants in the case.
2. A summary of the legal accusations in the case. 3. A summary of any analysis relevant to the case. 4. Explain the outcome of the case (what was the final ruling or decision in the case). 5. Provide two or three concluding paragraphs with your own thoughts about the case. 6. Make sure you use proper citations/references to give proper credit to your sources of information including the
case chapter and the book I told you to use. Any accepted, consistent citation/references methodology may be used.
Before emailing your writing assignment, make sure your name is on your paper AND your name is in the electronic file name! I will not read it if your full name is not included as part of electronic file name. For example: Jose_Martins_Econ 335_case.doc. DO NOT SEND ME A SCANNED DOCUMENT; DO NOT SEND ME A PICTURE DOCUMENT; DO NOT SEND ME A PDF DOCUMENT. THIS MUST BE IN MICROSOFT WORD.
Your paper will be graded on the following criteria:
1. Completeness in terms of the instructions and sections listed above. 2. Professionalism and Following Instructions (neat, organized, professional looking) 3. Content and writing quality (if you need to go to the NMSU writing center, I advise you to do so
soon).
