Book excerpt: Offering a clear and straightforward presentation of content, excellent case selection, and over 200 class-tested problems, Civil Procedure: Cases and Problems, Third Edition, is a book that teaches. Ides and May encourage students to apply the rules of procedure through problems, to develop their skills of doctrinal analysis through lightly edited cases, and to view the complex relationship between procedure and litigation both chronologically and in context. A fresh approach to teaching, Civil Procedure: Cases and Problems, features: clear introductions to concepts and rules; background information and context where appropriate; a chronological organization, beginning with the filing of the suit, through appeals and the effect of judgment; accessible presentation of the rules, beginning with rules-based material and gradually proceeding to more complex rules in the context of litigation; an informative overview of civil procedure in the first chapter that orients students in the course content; a hypothetical case in the first chapter that illustrates and exemplifies each of the major topics of civil procedure; free-standing chapters that may be read or referenced out of order; more than 230 up-to-date problems, interspersed throughout the text; lightly edited cases that develop first-year students' skills of doctrinal analysis; an integrated treatment of alternative dispute resolution and Rule 11 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. There is also a revised and updated Teacher's Manual that includes: sample syllabi, guidance for presenting casebook content, analysis of the cases, answers to the problems, advice for handling difficult topics, and diagrams updated throughout. The revised Third Edition provides: integration of the Restyled Federal Rules of Civil Procedure; discussion of high-tech procedural developments, such as personal jurisdiction and the Internet, e-filing, email service of process, and e-discovery; major Supreme Court decisions, such as Bell Atlantic v. Twombly (pleading and Rule 12(b)(6), Taylor v. Sturgell (virtual representation), and Republic of Panama v. Pimentel (Rule 19); recent developments under the Class Action Fairness Act and class arbitrations; challenging review problems at the end of each chapter. No longer do you need to spend all of your class time explaining basic concepts. Here is a great teaching casebook that allows you to focus on the aspects of teaching that you most enjoy - like hypothetical scenarios, important cases, and discussing issues and topics of interest to you.

Book excerpt: "The United States Code is the official codification of the general and permanent laws of the United States of America. The Code was first published in 1926, and a new edition of the code has been published every six years since 1934. The 2012 edition of the Code incorporates laws enacted through the One Hundred Twelfth Congress, Second Session, the last of which was signed by the President on January 15, 2013. It does not include laws of the One Hundred Thirteenth Congress, First Session, enacted between January 2, 2013, the date it convened, and January 15, 2013. By statutory authority this edition may be cited "U.S.C. 2012 ed." As adopted in 1926, the Code established prima facie the general and permanent laws of the United States. The underlying statutes reprinted in the Code remained in effect and controlled over the Code in case of any discrepancy. In 1947, Congress began enacting individual titles of the Code into positive law. When a title is enacted into positive law, the underlying statutes are repealed and the title then becomes legal evidence of the law. Currently, 26 of the 51 titles in the Code have been so enacted. These are identified in the table of titles near the beginning of each volume. The Law Revision Counsel of the House of Representatives continues to prepare legislation pursuant to 2 U.S.C. 285b to enact the remainder of the Code, on a title-by-title basis, into positive law. The 2012 edition of the Code was prepared and published under the supervision of Ralph V. Seep, Law Revision Counsel. Grateful acknowledgment is made of the contributions by all who helped in this work, particularly the staffs of the Office of the Law Revision Counsel and the Government Printing Office"--Preface.
Download or read book International Civil Litigation in United States Courts written by Gary Born and published by Aspen Publishers. This book was released on 2011 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The law governing international civil litigation has changed dramatically in the five years since the fourth edition was published. Recent decisions of the United States Supreme Court have had a significant impact on fields such as personal jurisdiction, sovereign immunity, and extraterritoriality. This current edition reflects those changes and raises important questions about the broader implications of those decisions ... Developments in this field are of course not limited to the United States. While the book still focuses primarily on United States law, the current edition deliberately incorporates more excerpts, more extensive references, and more questions concerning foreign law, especially European law. In part, this reflects an important reality--that successful practice in this area, even for the United States lawyer, requires a keen understanding of other legal systems". -- PREFACE OF THE FIFTH EDITON.
