    As we go through the readings, I expect that many of you will come across words or phrases that are either entirely unfamiliar or unfamiliar as used in their legal setting. (Hence the strong suggestion that you have access to a dictionary). Here are some Vocabulary words that I noticed in Chapter 1. Please feel free to add others that I did not include. And Yes…. some or all of these words could appear on a quiz or test.

    Chapter 1
    Renumeration
    res judicata
    stare decisis

    Plaintiff
    Defendant
    Common Law
    Statute
    supercede
    civil actions
    criminal actions
    standard of proof
    preponderance of the evidence
    beyond a reasonable doubt
