Download or read book Federal Appellate Procedure Manual written by Alex Kozinski and published by Juris Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2014-08-01 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the past quarter century, most of the individual rules of the Federal Rules of Appellate Procedure (FRAP) have been amended to account for new laws, case-law development, practices, and technology. New provisions and rules were also added addressing privacy concerns arising from electronic case filings made publicly available on the internet, citation of unpublished court opinions, electronic means of service, filing of cross-appeals, computation of time periods, entry of judgment, and corporate disclosure requirements. The Federal Appellate Procedure Manual offers a convenient, up-to-date reference source for both new and experienced practitioners that provides unique insights into FRAP and appellate practice from authors who shared first-hand experience in the rulemaking process. The Manual begins with several sections on the jurisdiction of courts of appeals; focusing on the final-decision doctrine. The remaining sections concentrate on FRAP rules that deal with civil cases, excluding for the most part consideration of habeas corpus, administrative agency decisions, Tax Court rulings, and criminal cases. The Manual highlights key passages in the FRAP Committee Notes most pertinent to understanding the rules. The copious citations to very recent case law throughout the Manual account for the many amendments and new FRAP rules and evolving case-law jurisprudence.

Book excerpt: Civil Appellate Practice in the Minnesota Court of Appeals is a comprehensive practitioner's guide to civil appellate practice and procedure in the Minnesota Court of Appeals. Rules, case law, and practical considerations that bear on practice in the Minnesota Court of Appeals are the book's primary concern.

It then proceeds to take the reader through the various steps encountered in the prosecution of a case through the intermediate appellate court. Areas covered include jurisdiction; the initiation of appellate proceedings, including appealable judgments and orders, the effect of an appeal on remaining trial court proceedings, the procedure for appeal by multiple parties, the scope of review on appeal from a judgment or order, the time within which an appeal must be taken, and the manner in which an appeal must be perfected; the procedure involved in obtaining a writ of mandamus or prohibition; preargument motion practice; the record on appeal; the preparation of briefs and appendixes; oral argument; and postdecision procedures.
Download or read book Principles of Appellate Advocacy written by Daniel P. Selmi and published by Aspen Publishing. This book was released on 2021-01-31 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Appellate Advocacy books can overwhelm students with a disparate mixture of appellate rules, arcane procedural requirements, multiple writing instructions, practice tips, etc. This book avoids that problem by focusing on the most important aspect of appellate advocacy: how to write a persuasive appellate brief. It sets forth very specific, well-defined rules--adapted from the recommendations of experienced appellate practitioners and judges--for students to learn and follow. Principles of Appellate Advocacy stresses three overreaching principles that students need to understand: (1) The perspective principle: putting the brief writer in the shoes of the judge; (2) The structural principle: building the brief around issues; and (3) The organizational principle: separating the thought process from the writing process. New to the Second Edition: Expanded coverage of standards of review, with explanations of the most commonly employed standards, examples from decisions using the standards and from briefs that apply them, plus exercises to assist students in recognizing the applicable standards of review. Increased emphasis on the concept of appealable error and preservation of issues. Additional exercises that require students to implement the rules for writing discussed in the text and to practice revision and editing techniques. An updated sample appellate brief that implements the book’s rules for writing a brief. A video illustrating the “dos and don’ts” of oral argument. Professors and student will benefit from these features: The direct, practical approach to teaching students how to write an appellate brief—the most important aspect of appellate advocacy. The concepts as presented are straightforward and accessible to facilitate understanding. Students will learn and then implement specific rules that appellate experts nationwide agree are essential to good appellate writing. The first edition has been proven effective by students in a very successful law school appellate program. This approach and these materials work.

Download or read book Briefing and Arguing Federal Appeals written by Frederick Bernays Wiener and published by The Lawbook Exchange, Ltd.. This book was released on 2009-06 with total page 528 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published: Washington, D.C.: BNA Incorporated, 1961. iii (New Introduction), xvi, 506 pp. With a New Introduction by Bryan A. Garner, President, LawProse, Inc. This book tells how to brief and how to argue a Federal case on appeal. Its primary purpose is to explain to the lawyer how to best persuade a Federal appellate court to decide a case in his favor. It is neither a practice manual nor a text of Federal appellate procedure, being written on the assumption that all the procedural steps necessary to perfect the appeal have been or will be timely taken. Consequently this book deals with problems that are common to appeals in whatever Federal court they may be presented. Many of the principles defined and discussed herein are applicable also to the argument, oral and written, of questions of fact and law presented and heard in Federal trial courts. The task of presenting facts and law effectively, the psychology of persuasion, the requirements of candor and accuracy-these are matters common to forensic effort in every courtroom, at every state of a litigated proceeding. In addition to its discussion of appellate advocacy and a description of procedure in the federal appellate courts (Supreme Court, U.S. Court of Appeals, and specialized federal courts), it provides valuable guidelines for writing briefs and appeals and the preparing oral arguments. Among other lessons, it teaches ways to -think before writing, -state facts and phrase issues persuasively, -use argumentative headings, -employ clear, forceful English, -handle questions in oral argument, -use maps and charts effectively and -prevent "forensic halitosis." AALS Law Books Recommended for Libraries List 26, Legal Profession, page 20, "A" Rated. "To get into court and to maintain your right to be there is the object of all pleading and is as important in an appellate court as in a trial court (...) This book is a guide to handling of cases on appeal in the Federal courts by one who is eminently qualified to instruct and direct in this field." --from the foreword by Sherman Minton, Associate Justice, U.S. Supreme Court "Anyone familiar with Mr. Wiener's reputation as an appellate advocate and with his earlier works would expect his new book to be either required reading or strongly recommended in a course in Appellate Practice and Procedure. My own choice for next spring's seminar at this law school is to require it. This is not to say, however, that the book is directed solely to the student in law school. There are probably few practicing attorneys who would not benefit substantially from the author's ability, drawing on his vast personal experience, to expound the art of appellate advocacy in a fascinating and instructive way." -- Monroe H. Freedman, The George Washington Law Review 30 (1961-62) 148. "This is a brilliant book by a brilliant mind. It's the seminal 20th-century book on appellate advocacy, with wisdom, insight, and concrete examples packed into page after page." --Bryan A. Garner Frederick Bernys Wiener [1906-1996], or "Fritz" as he was known to his friends, was educated at Brown University and Harvard Law School, where he was a note editor on Harvard Law Review. In addition to several years in private practice, Wiener held positions in the U.S. Department of the Interior, the Judge Advocate General's Corps (as an officer during the Second World War) and the Solicitor General's Office, where he successfully argued the landmark Supreme Court case Reid v. Covert. Also a scholar of vast learning and high reputation, he wrote copiously on courts-martial, martial law and legal history.
