As we learned during Week 1, the courts create common law. Common law is composed of published case opinions, which we find in legal libraries. Legal libraries can now be accessed online, making legal research much easier to conduct than in the past.
For this assignment, you should first watch the following video: Nexis Uni™: How to Search from the Home Page. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_MUED6Lo13M) Then use Nexis Uni in the APUS library
( https://www.apus.edu/apus-library/index.html) as your research tool for accessing legal library resources to answer the questions below: find the case and answer the following questions:
