Perspectives: Teaching Legal Research and Writing

Abstract

Meet ROSS, a new junior associate. He can read over one million pages of law in a second. He knows every court in every federal circuit. He understands with ease legal research questions posed to him in plain language, and answers within seconds. He thrives on feedback from his supervisors to improve his accuracy and performance. He gets smarter with each completion of a task. And, I almost forgot: he doesn't take vacations, doesn't get tired, doesn't get frustrated, doesn't require health insurance, doesn't waste time reviewing irrelevant authority, doesn't care about work/life balance, and doesn't bill at an exorbitant hourly rate - only, ROSS isn't human.
