Case brief : Draper vs. United States
Attached is how the case brief is to be done
A CAUTIONARY NOTE
Dont brief the case until you have read it through at least once. Dont think that because you have found the judges best purple prose you have necessarily extracted the essence of the decision. Look for unarticulated premises, logical fallacies, manipulation of the factual record, or distortions of precedent. Then ask, How does this case relate to other cases in the same general area of law? What does it show about judicial policymaking? Does the result violate your sense of justice or fairness? How might it have been better decided?
