Book excerpt: Civil Procedure: Cases and Problems, Fifth Edition covers all topics in the first-year canon of civil procedure, and some topics in advanced litigation classes (e.g., class actions, appeals). The casebook is organized with the reality and complexities of civil litigation in mind, and follows the litigation sequence, from pleading through preclusion. Each chapter takes a practical as well as analytical approach, through (a) a series of Supreme Court and lower court opinions, (b) notes preceding and following those opinions intended to explain the underlying doctrines and principles behind them, and (c) problems intended to assess and refine students understanding of doctrines and their rationales. Ultimately, this casebook demands that students read carefully and at a detailed level, analyze critically, and apply the law from the perspective of the theories underlying the various doctrines. It provides an effective vehicle through which to teach legal analysis and to gently nudge students forward and deeper into the materials.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Civil Procedure in Focus by Jeremy Counseller and Eric Porterfield uses a combination of accessible explanatory text, cases, and other primary legal sources to teach civil procedure, and then provides opportunities for students to apply the law to multiple sets of facts in every chapter. Selected cases illustrate key changes in the law and show how courts have developed and apply doctrine. The unintimidating approach of this casebook provides a hands-on, experiential learning environment that can be essential to many students’ success. Through practice-based exercises, students learn to apply legal principles and concepts to real-world scenarios. Simply knowing the facts of a benchmark case is not enough; knowing how to apply the doctrine from one case to a different set of facts enhances a` student’s ability to succeed in and after law school. New to the Second Edition: Multiple-choice questions at the end of each chapter Discussion of “Snap Removal,” a hot topic currently percolating through the federal court system Updates regarding recent US Supreme Court cases regarding personal jurisdiction Professors and students will benefit from: Applying the Concepts and Civil Procedure in Practice exercises. These end-of-chapter exercises encourage students to synthesize the chapter material and apply relevant legal doctrine and code to real-world scenarios.

Every case in a chapter is followed by Real Life Applications, which present a series of questions based on a scenario similar to the facts in the case. Real Life Applications challenge students to apply what they have learned and help prepare them for real-world practice. Professors can use Real Life Applications to spark class discussions or provide them as individual short-answer assignments. Case Previews and Post-Case Follow-Ups. To succeed, law students must know how to deconstruct and analyze cases. Case Previews highlight the legal concepts in a case before the student reads it. Post-Case Follow-Ups summarize the important points and go one step further—noting the significance of a case to current law as well as its later ramifications. Clear exposition of key concepts in the text that means professors can spend less class time lecturing students on the basics and more time discussing different perspectives on the law, current issues, etc. Essay, short-answer, and multiple-choice questions in every chapter Practice-based hypotheticals that challenge students to apply doctrine to different fact scenarios Exhibits that highlight the relevant rule of law and corresponding legal authority

Download or read book Discovery Problems in Civil Cases written by Federal Judicial Federal Judicial Center and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-12-31 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The proper scope of discovery and the effect of discovery on the costs of litigation in civil cases have been controversial issues since the concept of notice pleading was introduced. The modern role of discovery, effectuated in the 1938 Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, continues to draw detractors and supporters. Surprisingly, there is little difference between the arguments of the 1930s and those of the 1970s. Nevertheless, these arguments have taken on new dimensions in recent years because of the increasing costs of litigation and the fact that discovery accounts for a substantial portion of the costs of civil litigation. These concerns prompted our study. Although preliminary planning for research projects on discovery had started in 1975, the strongest impetus for Federal Judicial Center research was the so-called Pound Revisited Conference of 1976, at which discovery was highlighted as a particularly serious cost problem. By the summer of 1978, published Center research concerning discovery included a statistically based study of cases in six districts and a study that surveyed and analyzed all critical literature on the federal discovery rules published since January 1970 (the year of the last major revision of the federal discovery rules). The instant project is one of the Center 's continuing studies of the operation of discovery. The Center's first discovery report was--as noted above--a statistical study. Although statistics provide information that illuminates or defines problems, some questions are. more usefully addressed through case studies. The present study involves such questions.
