Beginning Vocabulary

My benefactor suggested I read for the following to gain basic vocabulary and some concepts.

Law school first class is state civil procedure.  Federal rules are the model for state rules of civil procedure.
1) civil procedure & administrative procedure (state specific).  (Look for Barbri admin packet).

Contract law
2a) Constitutional contract law.  Look for "contract" in federal constitution.
2b) Contracts may be broken.  Remedies for breach of contract.  Contracts can be voided for illegality "against public policy".

Contracts
3a) Government contracts.  Little or no Barbri coverage.
3b) Implied contracts.  How enforceable.
3c) Elements to form a contract - meeting of minds, both sides agree to purpose, "arms length" transaction, not unconscionable (such as withholding info)

Rule --> 69
Rule --> 121.  Know this including timeliness of suing.

4a) taking
4b) eminent domain
4c) detrimental reliance

Next step:
tortuous interference with contract

Barbri Study Guide

After three years of law school, graduating students who want a "bar card" must pass the bar test.  One of the bar test study guide vendors is Barbri.  The guides cost over $1000.  I bought a used 2008 version for $50.
