You have to provide all the information required by the form, but you do not have to use the form. It is smart to use it to make sure you file the claim properly.
>On the FTCA quiz there was a question asking if an FTCA claim is required to be filed on a form 95, and the answer was false. Is that correct? I thought that it was required to be filed on a form 95. Thanks for the help!

Slides – West Virginia v. EPA – final
Juliana v. United States, 947 F.3d 1159 (9th Cir. 2020) (pdf) – annotated
In response to a question about preparing for an essay exam in a rules-based course such as a bar course:
I do not see the climate class as driven by jurisprudential rules as much as traditional bar courses. It is more about learning about the scope of the problem, the legal tools that have been tried, and thinking about what legal tools might be applied. That is especially true after West Virginia v. EPA, which eliminated most of the EPA’s GHG authority and undid a lot of the regulatory actions that had been built up since Mass v. EPA. You want to work through the CAA cases we read and how subsequent cases limited what the EPA could do with the authority it was left by the Mass v. EPA court.
