SupremeCourtIntracites
This document was prepared for my Analytic Methods for Lawyers class during the fall of 2014. It is intended to introduce students to R programming and to do so using what I hope is an interesting example. The document needs a lot of work, both in substance, in programming, and in formatting. It's the first time I ever used R Markdown or Slidy, so please don't be too harsh.
