McCord, 4rd Edition, 2012, ISBN 13: Canby s American Indian Law in a Nutshell, 5th h Edition (Nutshell Series), William C. Canby, Jr., West Thomson Publishing, 2009, ISBN Weissbrodt s and Danielson s Immigration Law and Procedure in a Nutshell, 6 th Edition(Nutshell Series), David Wesissbrodt and Laura Danielson, West Thomson Publishing, 2011, ISBN Frolik and Kaplan s Elder Law in a Nutshell, 6 th Edition (Nutshell Series), Lawrence A.

In the legal field, deadlines are critical and failure to meet them can cause a client to lose his or her case. To obtain an extension, you must petition the court in advance. Accordingly, should you have an emergency or a valid reason for needing an extension of time for a written assignment, you must ask for it in advance. Obtaining an extension is your responsibility. Please note that your request for an extension may not be granted. Any assignment handed in late will receive a deduction in the grade. 3
