Learning the Law From Real Life - Talk about Irresistible Impulse!
An old case that made headline news and in which the Defendant, Lorena Bobbit, was found not guilty by reason of insanity. A little primer for Criminal Law/Procedure. Homicide and insanity hasn't been tested for a while. Perhaps the July 2012 bar is ripe for such a hypo?

Learning through Real Life Examples
One of the remedies that can be employed to a legal matter is the equitable remedy of an injunction. A great example of this is the battle between Apple and Samsung. Apple was just granted a preliminary injunction against Samsung to "temporarily" prevent the sales of the Samsung Galaxy Nexus smartphone until the trial on the permanent injunction. Apple's argument related to patent infringement. You can secure the opinion directly through the court's website to learn more about how the judge weighed the elements required for an injunction and required Apple to post an over $95 Million dollar bond!
