1. A brief description of the main provisions of the law (you may choose to discuss only part of the law) and a summary statement of why the law or part of the law is significant (1 page).
2. What steps are involved in enforcing the law/attempting to resolve the dispute?
(1 page)
3. What proof would be required to establish that a violation has occurred? (1 page)
4. What is the likely remedy if a violation is proven)? (1 page)
5. Conclusion: How could a violation be avoided? (1 page)
