Finally...the week is over [John]

Its been a long week. I read more than 215 pages, briefed more than 25 cases, and spent about 13 hours in class (only God knows how long I spent in the library). Ok fine...215 pages isn't a lot, but it was definitely tiring especially since 75% of it were cases that needed to be briefed.

As for today, my three classes went well. I felt that I did a pretty good job preparing for them and am definitely getting a better grasp on how all the concepts are fitting together. Currently in Civil Procedure, we are going over the Federal rules and procedure for Discovery. It reminded me of the days when I worked as an administrative legal assistant at a law firm. I used to help fill out 26(b) forms, production of document requests and interrogatories. Back in those days, I didn't fully understand what the reasoning was behind filling out the forms, but now I definitely see how important the discovery phase is during the trial. haha and those summary judgments. I remember those vividly...it always felt like every case we had our attorney's would motion for summary judgment...Now I understand why....
