The ethics and the law assignment for Photo Law is back. It's the same basic assignment from past semesters, with perhaps a few tweaks. The assignment really isn't as hard as it appears.
Only two questions are troublesome: 1) Shephardizing RAV v. City of St. Paul and 2) the Law Week article about advertising in a student newspaper.
For 1) search the Web for the case citation before you look for the later cites in LexisNexis or WestLaw.
For 2) I don't think there is a cumulative index to Law Week, so it helps to find the case in LexisNexis (use key word searching) and then you have a year to target in Law Week.
Of course, a good reference librarian isn't going to just give away the answers, so use these hints as a way to help the students find the answers on their own.

You can Shephardize in LexisNexis Academic (or Westlaw) without going to Lexis.com. The other hint for item 1 is above is to be very specific about how you space and punctuate the names in the case. If you do it correctly, you won't need to search for a citation elsewhere.
