Mississippi Legal Research: Secondary Resources

This lesson will cover the range of secondary materials available for the research of Mississippi law.  As a smaller state, there are less extensive secondary sources available than are available for other states.  However, the materials that do exist provide a deep and rich body of literature for assisting in the research of legal issues in the state.

The lesson will present a fact pattern modeled on a true-to-life incident, and use that fact pattern to assist you in becoming familiar with the overall contours of secondary sources in Mississippi.  There will be questions interspersed throughout the lesson.
