This document provides instructions for writing a white paper analyzing how a hypothetical state-level business dispute case would proceed through the various legal phases of a state court system. The white paper should also discuss alternative dispute resolution (ADR) methods that could potentially resolve the case without going to trial, including an analysis of which ADR method would be most appropriate given the costs and benefits compared to traditional litigation. The white paper is limited to 700 words and must follow APA formatting guidelines.

1. Review
Exhibit 2.1: Typical State Court System.
Assume
that the higher on this chart the case is the more expensive it is
for all parties.
Write
a memo on a state (not federal) level business dispute. Describe
as if you were writing a "white paper" for your boss who wants
to know how a case like the one you have chosen would be
processed throughout the various legal phases in a state court
system.
Because most cases never make it to trial, it is also important to
consider alternative methods of dispute resolution. Suppose
your selected case was initially submitted to ADR. What
methods of ADR would be available to pursue? Which of these
ADR methods do you think would be the most appropriate?
Why?
Required
elements:
Discuss the differences in costs and benefits of going through
traditional litigation and pursuing ADR in this case (Consider
for example, why one of the parties in the case you're looking at
may have preferred keeping the case out of court).
No more than 700 words.
Format is consistent with APA guidelines.
