Your paper should be double spaces, 1″ margins, and thoroughly address the issues in the instructions above.  The reader should not need to have read the case of have any advanced understanding of the law to understand the basic principles and applicability of those principles once you’ve explained them in the paper.  There is no minimum or maximum page requirement.  So long as it is thorough and understandable by a “layman,” a shorter concise paper is welcome.
