Over the next month and a half, Extemp Central will provide R&Ds on the topic areas for the 2022 NSDA National Tournament. USX topic areas will have R&Ds posted on Tuesday & Thursday and IX topic areas will have R&Ds posted on Tuesday & Friday. This is meant to help extempers assemble resources to prepare for the competition in Louisville. This week we tackle USX topic area #7 on the Judicial Branch.
