Unit 1 Test:   2  F-IRAC Questions

Unit 1 Test:   2  F-IRAC Questions

 Instructions:

Facts:  Present a fact summary in your own words.  This fact summary must be detailed enough for you to be reminded of all the facts you will use in your analysis.

ISSUE:  Identify legal theory, parties, and pivotal fact in single sentence – If issue is related to a constitutional issue be sure to identify source. If there are multiple legal theories to be raised, try to get them into a single sentence.

RULE: Start with the general rule and follow with elements or defenses – often elements or defenses are based in common law, but remember do not mention those cases by name in the rule.

ANALYSIS: Start the Analysis with an introductory fact summary This does not have to be as detailed as the Face summary presented at the beginning of F-IRAC. This introductory statement leads into the presentation of the general rule, its application to the facts and then each subsequent element, defense or exception to the general rule is presented and is applied to the facts in a similar manner. This process requires several paragraphs.

Where multiple legal theories are raised, they must be dealt with in separate paragraphs.

Tell the story. Cite cases and explain what the case is about and how it provides authority for the current case.  

CONCLUSION: (Provide a single sentence which answers the question raised in the issue statement which is combined with a “because” or “why” statement.)
