15. APPLYING SHACK TO NEW SITUATIONS DQ1.14: Comparing Facts (The Press) NJSCt Explicitly Says Press Is Allowed: Why Discuss? Clearly dicta (no press in case). Could be arguing at later time about whether NJSCt should adhere to own dicta. (Note: the more time that has passed, the easier it is to do this.) Could be arguing in another state about extending basic rule in Shack

20. Applying Shack: DQ1.15 & Problems 1A-1B Could do each of these at length, going through: Application of Key Language Factual Comparisons to Shack Ds & Press Relevance of Key Policies Like Protecting O’s Interests Overall Best Result In class & DF, we’ll do selected Qs to highlight particular techniques I’ll give you more extensive write-ups of each in future Info Memo

21. APPLYING SHACK: Rev Probs 1A & 1B Thursday: Four Panels on-call for 1A & 1B. Look at in light of today’s discussions. A few points to think about (from 1B) : Common Sense in Reading: “To ensure that she never comes into contact with pork products, Alyssa stopped serving them in her dining hall and forbade all employees from bringing food from outside the farm (drinks are allowed).” Them = pork products not MWs. Don’t Look for Easy Ways Out: E.g., Don’t rest whole answer on MWs with medical or religious need for pork or pizza ( not very likely ). Look for Ways That Problem is Different Than What You’ve Seen Before: E.g., O’s primary interest is probably not privacy or security, b/c she allowed pizza delivery in past, so focus on religious interest.
