Download or read book Cases on Civil Procedure written by William H. Loyd and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-12 with total page 964 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Cases on Civil Procedure: Selected and Annotated The purpose of this volume is to point out through selected cases, the principal problems of civil procedure, to explain how they were approached at common law and to indicate how they are com mouly dealt with in modern courts. Such a course it is believed will not only prepare the student for the more intelligent study of the procedure of the state in which he expects to practice, but will also assist him in those branches of substantive law that are rooted in procedure. It is hoped, too, that in schools where the local practice alone is taught and in the ofiice, preceptor and student may find here material useful for comparative study. Indeed, as the practice of the law tends in this country to extend beyond state boundaries, it becomes increasingly dangerous to restrict one's information to the methods of a single locality. While one can hardly expect to become expert in the daily routine of courts other than those in which his life's work is centered, a broad comprehensive view of the more im portant points upon which a diversity of practice may be anticipated is an equipment not to be despised.

Download or read book Hand Book of Common Law Pleading Classic Reprint written by Benjamin Jonson Shipman and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-10 with total page 642 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Hand-Book of Common-Law Pleading In the following pages, the writer has endeavored to state, as clearly and concisely as possible, such of the rules and principles of common-law pleading as are still recognized and applied in this country, omitting such of those found in the old English system as have become obsolete in practice, except where, as in the case of special pleading, they are the foundation of the method now in use, and giving due prominence to those rules whose principles are most noticeably applied in pleading under the codes. Whether the common-law rules are to be taken as directly followed in the latter, aside from the formalities prescribed in the practice acts, or wheth er the rules and principles of code pleading are to be considered as derived simply and only from the statute, the fact remains that a knowledge of the common-law system cannot fail to be of advantage, if, indeed, it is not an essential, to a thorough understanding of both code and equity pleading. It has been the observation and ex perience of the writer, not only that such knowledge enables a lawyer to frame his pleadings under the latter systems with greater ease and accuracy, but that, especially in code pleading, doubts as to the necessity or propriety of particular allegations, where the statute is silent or obscure in its directions, can generally be easily disposed of by an understanding of the reason of the common-law rule in similar cases. A lawyer who enters upon the active practice of his profession with no other guide than what the codes prescribe is but poorly qualified for attaining the important result of placing the statement of a complicated and important case before the court in a logical and concise form.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Civil Procedure at Common Law Authors on code procedure In the United States usually advise students commencing its study to first familiarize themselves with the principles of common law as well as equity procedure. As an instructor for ten years in code, common law, and equity procedure, I have been impressed with the truth and propriety of this advice, and have endeavored to make it as effective as possible, in the instruction which it has been my duty to impart. I would not be understood as urging the student of code procedure to achieve that critical mastery of the common law system of procedure, which was a necessary accomplishment of a successful barrister; but that he should acquire such passable knowledge of its history and principles as will enable him to understand thoroughly the reformed system which has supplanted it. All the more necessary is such knowledge to the student of the modified systems of common law procedure which prevail in some of the States. The work which I now submit to the profession has boon prepared during the years in which I have been engaged as an instructor in civil procedure, with the view of meeting- the requirements of the modern student in law for a more thorough and extended acquaintance with the common law system of procedure. It has been prepared more especially for students, and is written from the standpoint of an instructor, who commenced to practise as an attorney under the system which he is now engaged in teaching.

Download or read book A Selection of Cases and Other Authorities on Civil Procedure in Actions at Law Classic Reprint written by Austin Wakeman Scott and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-04 with total page 694 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Selection of Cases and Other Authorities on Civil Procedure in Actions at Law This collection of cases and other authorities is intended primarily for the use of students who are beginning the study of the law. About five years ago, when the editor began his work as a teacher of law in the Harvard Law School, he decided to enlarge the course on Pleading in that school into a course on Civil Procedure. It seemed that it would make the subject easier for the student to understand if he were shown how an action is carried through the courts, and if he were taught Pleading in its proper relation to the other steps in an action. In the selection and arrangement of the material, the editor has had in mind the needs of the first-year student who, though familiar in a general way with parts of the substantive law, has no knowledge of procedure except as he may have derived from the daily newspapers some notions of legal forensics. The cases cited in the footnotes are not for the most part merely cumulative. They are intended to suggest variations of the problems presented in the principal cases, and are adapted for use as hypothetical cases in the class-room. The names and arguments of counsel have been omitted. Other omissions are duly indicated. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

But his illuminating maxim that legal progress has been through Procedure from Status to Contract will never be superseded. I have found in the principle underlying it the explanation which I was seek ing. In the Introduction is a discussion of what constitutes Status, and the book as a whole. Is a develop ment of the theme that law begins with Status and that the difference between the two leading systems is that while the Common Law has been a continuous growth of Contract, the Civil Law has been a gradual refinement of Status.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Practice Special Actions Courts of Record: State of New York, Under the Code of Civil Procedure and Statues, With Forms The aim of this work is to supplement the Special Proceedings which has been so favorably received by the Bar. As stated in the preface to that work, very many legal proceedings once termed special have, under the Code of Civil Procedure, become Actions. These actions are, so far as they are treated by the second part of the Code, special in the sense that the ordinary rules of practice are not applicable to them, and that to a greater or less extent specific rules are enacted relative to their conduct. Hence this work treats of special actions, including those treated by Mr. Crary in his work on Special Proceedings, together with all others which are defined and provided for by sections 1496 to 1990 of the present Code.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Common-Law Pleading: Its History and Principles; Including Dicey's Rules Concerning Parties to Actions and Stephen's Rules of Pleading As this book is intended for the student and is de signed to teach the principles of a science which was long since perfected, no effort has been made to digest recent decisions, or even to refer to them (save for some special purpose). The cases cited are almost exclusively the leading English authorities referred to by Chitty and by Stephen. Indeed, Saunders' Reports furnish the best collection of cases to be consulted by the student, who should supplement his studies by a close perusal of those Reports or of Ames' Cases on Pleading. As the subject of this work is pleading as it existed at common-law, the present tense is frequently used in describing things which have long since ceased to exist.
