Description

In this episode, Thomas and Andrew interview Denise Howell from the <a href= "https://twit.tv/shows/this-week-in-law/episodes/390?autostart=false">This Week in Law</a> podcast. First, however, we take a look at the Supreme Court's recent decision denying <em>certiorari</em> in an appeal of a Fourth Circuit case striking down various provisions of a North Carolina law that restricted voting rights.  There's a lot of misinformation going on, so you'll want to listen! In the main segment, Denise Howell breaks down the "law of emojis" and a 🐿️ time is had by all. After that, Breakin' Down the Law returns with the recent FTC decision to try and block the FanDuel-Draft Kings merger. Finally, we end with the answer to Thomas (and Denise) Take the Bar Exam Question #29  regarding assumption of risk.  Will Thomas beat the practicing lawyer?  Listen and find out, and don't forget to play along by following our Twitter feed (<a href= "https://twitter.com/openargs">@Openargs</a>) and/or our <a href= "https://www.facebook.com/openargs/">Facebook Page</a> and quoting the Tweet or Facebook Post that announces this episode along with your guess and reason(s)! <span style= "text-decoration: underline">Recent Appearances</span> None.  But if you're on the East Coast, you should check out <a href="http://www.lvhumanists.org/speaker_series_20170702">Andrew's speech to the Lehigh Valley Skeptics on "Skepticism and the Law" on July 2, 2017 at 11 am by clicking here</a>. <span style= "text-decoration: underline">Show Notes & Links</span> <ol> <li>This is the <a href= "https://www.supremecourt.gov/orders/courtorders/051517zor_986b.pdf"> Supreme Court's denial of certiorari</a>, which is worth reading.</li> <li>The underlying case is <a href= "https://scholar.google.com/scholar_case?case=15871106734348249393"> NC State Conference of NAACP v.
