    AIDS CASES:  In the past five years, AIDS has generated
 enough legal issues to fill a 1,000-page text.  The newly
 published, "AIDS:  Cases and Materials," is the first casebook
 to cover the impact of Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome on
 the law, says Michael L. Closen, a key editor of the book and
 a professor at John Marshall Law School.  About 40 law schools
 in the U. S. are currently conducting or planning to conduct
 courses on AIDS, and Prof.  Closen estimates that by the end
 of the spring semester the casebook should be used in courses
 at 10 of the law schools.
