I enjoyed this course and it helped me to understand the basic parts of American Law. My only suggestion is to provide even more cases as examples to demonstrate the doctrines and statutes. Thank you.

Good introductory course. I'd like to see a little more detail, though. Maybe individual courses, or peer reviewed responses.
