Description
1. Your research papers must have a cover page indicating the course, instructor, your name, date, and topic, as well as a separate Bibliography (a works cited).
2. You must use the MLA (Modern Language Association) style to write this paper. This reference is particularly important for quotations and your list of sources. Absolutely no plagiarism will be tolerated in this class. I will provide a link for an MLA guide in the research paper module. You can use MLA style version 7 or 8 to complete this paper.
3. Each paper should consist of three or more double-spaced pages with one-inch margins (in #12 font size). Cover pages and reference pages do not count toward the total number of pages in this assignment.
4. Though I am more concerned with how well you cover the subject, I will pay attention to grammar, spelling, punctuation etc.
5. Choose one of the court cases from the approved list below. At least part of your paper should report how the case was addressed in the lower court contrasted with the ultimate decision of the US Supreme Court.
6. Do preliminary research to ensure that you can find sufficient sources to support your paper (you should have at least 3 collegiate level sources). Also, you should have at least three citations in the body of the paper to properly develop your argument
