APPELLATE OPINION RESEARCH PROJECT ASSIGNMENT
Assignment: * Locate and analyze an appellate court case opinion (state or federal) directly related to the course objectives. See the "Think like a lawyer" framework in the Classroom.
* Explain why you chose this specific case.
* Identify and analyze the issues raised by the opinion, and discuss how the opinion relates to one or more of the course objectives.
* Key issues raised by the opinion should be analyzed in depth, with detailed attention to historical context and practical implications for practitioners or implications for legislative or executive policymakers.
* State and defend your agreement or disagreement with the outcome of the opinion.
* (Optional) Locate and discuss any expert commentary (e.g., law review articles) regarding the opinion and any prior or subsequent opinions or articles that relate to the opinion in question.
* (Optional) Discuss any public policy issues raised by the opinion.

Section dealt with a random sample of size
: Illustrative Example 1 of this section dealt with a random sample of size n = 2 from a gamma distribution with « = I, fJ = 6. Thus the m.g.f. of the distribution is (I - 8t>- 1, t l /8, 8 > 2. Let Z = X1 + X2

Problem regarding the weibull distribution
: Consider a random sample X1 ,X2 ,• • • , X,, from the Weibull distribution with p.d.f. f( x; 0, -r) = 0-rxi - 1e-0xr, 0 x oo, where O 0, 0 -r, zero elsewhere. (a) If -r is known, find the m.l.e. of 0.

Poisson distribution with parameter
: 1. Let X have a Poisson distribution with parameter 0. Assume that the unknown O is a value of a random variable 0 that has a gamma distribution with parameters IX = r and fJ = (1 -p)/ p, where r is a positive integer and 0 p 1.
