Putting the Pieces Together
Below are two relatively recent federal court opinions (one from the Supreme Court and one from the Seventh Circuit) dealing with issues of mistake, knowing violation, and notice. As you read these cases, think both about the issues raised by the defendants and others that might have been raised. Did you agree with the way these two courts resolved these issues? Are they consistent with the precedents cited (almost all of which you have read)?
