Download or read book Connecticut Legal Research written by Jessica G. Hynes and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Connecticut Legal Research was written for legal researchers at various levels, including first-year law students, paralegals, and Connecticut practitioners. For those just learning the basics of legal research, the book explains basic research skills and strategies and introduces Connecticut sources both in print and online. It also explains how to research analogous federal materials and the law of other states, allowing a student to use the book as the sole text in a legal research course. More experienced researchers will also benefit from having a text that brings together all of the print and online sources in Connecticut, and provides a step-by-step manual for researching each Connecticut source both in print and online. Researchers can use the book to find specific websites that contain Connecticut legal materials and follow the steps outlined to access those materials. This book begins with an introduction to the research process and a discussion of the relationship between legal research and legal analysis. Chapter one introduces the reader to the state and federal court systems, and outlines the basic process used for researching the law, and chapter two discusses research strategies and organization. The book then turns to secondary sources, recognizing that these sources are often the starting point for researching a new legal question, and provide a way for researchers to gain important background information on an unfamiliar legal topic as well as find references to key primary sources. Next, Connecticut Legal Research discusses primary authority, with chapters devoted to constitutions, statutes, case law, and administrative law. Also included in this portion of the book is a chapter devoted to researching the legislative history of a statute, and a chapter on updating case law using citators. An appendix discusses legal citation, with sections on both of the national citation manuals, the ALWD Citation Manual and the Bluebook. A second appendix provides a brief bibliography of sources for legal research and analysis. Connecticut Legal Research integrates the discussions of print-based and online legal research, recognizing that effective legal research often requires a combination of both formats. The goal of the book is to provide researchers with the tools needed to access each authority both in print and online, and to provide researchers with the background information needed to develop a research plan that integrates effectively all of the research formats available. The book also includes short excerpts from print and online sources. This book is part of the Legal Research Series, edited by Suzanne E. Rowe, Director of Legal Research and Writing, University of Oregon School of Law.

Download or read book Women Before the Bar written by Cornelia Hughes Dayton and published by UNC Press Books. This book was released on 2012-12-01 with total page 401 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Women before the Bar is the first study to investigate changing patterns of women's participation in early American courts across a broad range of legal actions--including proceedings related to debt, divorce, illicit sex, rape, and slander. Weaving the stories of individual women together with systematic analysis of gendered litigation patterns, Cornelia Dayton argues that women's relation to the courtroom scene in early New England shifted from one of integration in the mid-seventeenth century to one of marginality by the eve of the Revolution. Using the court records of New Haven, which originally had the most Puritan-dominated legal regime of all the colonies, Dayton argues that Puritanism's insistence on godly behavior and communal modes of disputing initially created unusual opportunities for women's voices to be heard within the legal system. But women's presence in the courts declined significantly over time as Puritan beliefs lost their status as the organizing principles of society, as legal practice began to adhere more closely to English patriarchal models, as the economy became commercialized, and as middle-class families developed an ethic of privacy. By demonstrating that the early eighteenth century was a crucial locus of change in law, economy, and gender ideology, Dayton's findings argue for a reconceptualization of women's status in colonial New England and for a new periodization of women's history.
