So, if you're wondering what sorts of things I'm doing in my paralegal courses....this is the part of the course where we have research projects in almost every class. Here are the topics I'm working on:
a) an investigation of a particular parcel of land in San Diego to see what zoning laws and planning and development fees apply (this is to teach us how to research such things in various public offices);
b) researching the issues and laws relevant to a dispute between a home buyer, seller, and real estate agent when the buyer discovered a fault with the property after escrow had closed;
c) researching the application of copyright law and fair use doctrine to a particular fact scenario;
d) seeing how various environmental laws are being applied and contested in the battles for preserving wilderness lands in Utah.
Plus, I've been spending 8-16 hours a week at the law office where I'm interning, and have begun looking for a job for after the program is finished.
