| Course
Description: This course principally examines both practice
aspects and theoretical underpinnings of equitable remedies. Frequently,
compensatory damages cannot adequately protect clients or provide
them with the relief they need. Topics include temporary restraining
orders, preliminary and permanent injunctions, restitution and
unjust enrichment, specific performance, and equitable defenses
such as unclean hands, laches, and estoppel. Practice issues concerning
appeal, jury trials, and the relationship of equity to law are
also explored. |
