1. Study the Stipulated Facts and Longville Case Law in the Simulation Exercise that begins on Page 310.

Memo Assignment #4 – Team Option
Introduction: Analyze the Stipulated Facts (P. 310-312) and Longville Case Law (P. 312 – 315) , spot as many contract law issues as possible, and then work with ONE partner to write a 3-5-page memorandum that advocates a particular side of the dispute.

Assignment:

1. Review the Concept Summaries and your notes from chapters 6 and 7 in the textbook.

1. Study the Stipulated Facts and Longville Case Law in the Simulation Exercise.

1. Advocate for either NA or Blackwell.

1. Compose a 3-5-page memorandum that focuses on the enforceability of the restrictive covenant. Your memorandum should contain: 1) a brief summary of relevant facts of the dispute; 2) an explanation of each legal issue in the analysis with an application of legal rules or doctrines governing the dispute; 3) a list of all remedies that your side is entitled to; 4) a tenable solution to resolve the dispute in a non-judicial forum. Your memorandum should articulate arguments that support your side of the case by citing directly from the Longville cases points of law and opinion excerpts (use a simple parenthetical citation format with the first name of case and point/excerpt number such as Wellspan at Point 2, or Regional at Excerpt b1”).

1. Be sure to explain why you cited a particular point. Start with your strongest argument and give an analysis as to the likelihood of success of each theory.
