Part of the lesson in Law School is time management - to figure out what
dead weight you can throw off your balloon so that you don't fall out of
the sky. With finals approaching, why don't you just focus on your tests
and tell your professor you honestly don't know whether it was an error
or some arcane obscurity that occurred a century before you were born,
and neither did a list full of librarians and a South Carolina lawyer
named Andrew Johnson. Anyway, he's only asking because he does not know
the answer himself.
Not knowing the answer on Monday won't affect your future earning
potential, but failing an exam will. You have arrived. Good luck on
your finals.
Andrew Johnson, Esq.
