Paper For Above instruction

The assignment requires preparing a series of briefs formatted according to APA style guidelines, including specific structural and stylistic elements for each type of brief. The briefs are intended to analyze legal or argumentative issues through a clearly defined structure: facts and issues, arguments for each side, and a personal conclusion supported by sources. Additionally, proper APA formatting for cover pages, in-text citations, and references must be meticulously followed.

The initial brief (Brief 1) demands a cover page with a running head and a concise, centered title, followed by four sections: (1) facts and issues, (2) positive argument for one side, (3) positive argument for the opposing side, and (4) personal conclusion supported by research. It is essential that in-text citations are used throughout to attribute all sources appropriately. The subsequent Brief 2 mirrors this structure, starting on a new page.

Brief 3 introduces a more complex format with multiple mini-briefs, each clearly titled and subdivided into a main heading (centered boldface) and subordinate sections (left-aligned boldface), covering the issue, arguments, and conclusions related to each mini-brief. This format is repeated as needed for multiple mini-briefs, providing a comprehensive analysis of different aspects of the overarching subject.

Brief 4 adheres to the initial brief’s format. The final section of the assignment is a reference page formatted according to APA standards, including entries for all cited sources. The entire paper must be written in APA style, with appropriate headings, citations, and references, ensuring scholarly rigor and consistency.
