Abstract

Special issue: Articles on legal research and writing

Authors' note: The Mission: Impossible reference in the title comes from a television show (CBS 1966-1973; ABC 1988-1990) and a series of major motion pictures (Paramount 1996, 2000, 2006, 2011) bearing the same name. The plot involved a team of highly trained agents called the Impossible Mission Force, or the "IMF," who fought and defeated evil wrongdoers each week using a variety of tools, "psychological manipulation" and "elaborate ruses." The parallels between the IMF and those of us committed to professionalism instruction were too ironic to ignore.
