Several first year students have stopped by for advice on case briefing. There are many ways to brief a case stylistically, but regardless of your style, your case brief is a summary of the case that you have read for class - your brief should break down the elements of the case and allow you to identify the facts, procedural history, legal issue, and law at hand.
A great resource to use as a guide for case briefing is Dean Charlotte Taylor's book, Bridging the Gap Between College and Law School: Strategies for Success (Carolina Academic Press 2001, 2009) (http://www.cap-press.com/authors/209/Charlotte+D.+Taylor).
