1. What can a negligence lawyer do to best ensure a winning case for his client?
2. Citations of medical reports, important documents, and previous court cases.
3. Use an emotional appeal to the jury to sway over to your side of the argument.
4. The jury is made of regular people with no legal expertise, the jury is more likely to respond to emotions over facts, the jury tend to convict someone who they perceive to be a criminal.
5. One of the best sources is most likely this law review called the Emotional Juror.
6. Another source is a book called the American jury on trial.
7. What if I wanted to stay moral and not try any manipulation tactics what else should I do?

Blog 15: Independent Component 2 Approval
1. I plan to take a class in the spring quarter at Cal Poly Pomona Called Law for everyday Living.
2. I will take pictures of any and all tests, quizzes, and my transcript of the class to prove that I attended.
3. This will help me with my topic because my Topic has to do with choices that you make in everyday life and how law plays into it.

Blog 14: Independent Component 1
Literal:
a) I, Nathan Guevara, affirm that I completed my independent component which represents 30 hours of work.
b) My source is Gloria Garcia my mentor at the LA superior court located in Pomona.
d) I completed an extra 30 hours of mentorship to get a good understanding of my topic for my final presentation.
Interpretive:
I worked an extensive 30 hours trying to understand what I will have to go through just to get my case into court. I would have more photos to show what I actually did but due to liability reasons I can't show the inside of the court only the outside.

Blog 13: Lesson 2 Reflection
1. I am most proud of how well I did at getting my content across to the audience and how much they learned from me.
2a. I would assess myself a P.
2b. I would give myself a P because I feel that I went to P consideration as per the requirements of the lesson 2 contract.
3. What really worked were the explanations of the citations and how I could easily convert it into colloquial terms.
4. I would probably want to go back and explain the activity a bit better because some people had trouble understanding.
5. My answer 2 would have to be related to the manipulation of the jury and how that drastically affects the outcome of a negligence trial.

Blog 12:Mentorship 10 Hours
1. LA Superior Court in Pomona.
2.Renee Anaya.
3. I have 8 total hours done right now but by tomorrow I will have the necessary 10.
4. The hours that I did usually involved filing and ordering documents in the correct order. I also had to photocopy many many files because copies are needed in case of the worst possible scenarios.
