E + IRAC = IREAC
Mark Wojcik's (John Marshall Law School, Chicago) explains why adding an E for "explanation" of the rule of law to IRAC will help legal writers get their point across to professors and judges in his brief Student Lawyer article, Add an E to Your IRAC [SSRN]. Readers are more likely to accept one's argument when a writer can demonstrate that it is consistent with the rule's purpose. In his article, Wojcik identifies three ways to explain rules of law. The article is an excellent handout for 1L legal research and writing classes. [JH]
