The target audience for this blog is the students in the University of Muenster's Foreign Law Program (Fachspezifische Fremdsprachenausbildung), however anyone with an interest in the Common Law legal system should find something of interest here. It seems like practically everyday I come across some news item, blog post, law review article, etc. that relates to one of the common law subjects being taught in the Foreign Law Program. Thus, the purpose of this blog is provide a space to post links to and brief commentary on these items of interest, with the hope that students may find at least some of the items useful in their quest to understand this legal system that is indeed foreign to them. Finally, I hope students and others interested in the topics posted here will feel free to leave comments, ask questions and raise issues in the space provided on this blog. Enjoy.
