It is in a law related article in English and our professor told us that
" ñ " meant something special, other than being the letter of an alphabet. She might be joking, too, but I want to see if anyone knows anything about this.

I thought I should include the context as well.
"Do we expect to be ruled by laws that are unreasonable ñ or are unacceptable on other grounds?"
It also looks like a typo but it's all over the text.

"n" could refer to an unknown number of people or an unknown group number. Instatistics, N refers to a population being studied and n refers to a subgroup of N.

You need to write the sentence in which it is used.
Oops, you did.
In this context it refers to the related meaning of the word it follows, in this case the word "unreasonable". You should find the definition somewhere in the legal paper.

It doesn't mean anything special in English -- but in Spanish, the tilda above the 'n' tells us to alter our pronunciation. With a tilda over the 'n' -- you should add a 'y' sound after the 'n'
For example, the weather phenominon El Niño would be pronounced "El NeenYo"
