More than most legal educators, Civil Procedure professors
recognize the need to teach their students how arcane legal rules
apply to real human problems. That was true when the first edition
of Civil Procedure Simulations: Bridge to Practice was published
over a decade ago and remains true today. But one might ask why a
second edition? The Supreme Court and lower federal courts have
addressed some new complex questions since publication of the first
edition. The Supreme Court has failed to resolve how its due
process minimum contacts analysis works for internet cases, the
personal jurisdiction issue in the first edition. Instead, it has
complicated basic rules involving brick and mortar defendants.
Enter the same trolling reporter Mike Ridge, but since we met him
in the first edition, his internet employer fired him and he is now
working for a brick and mortar newspaper that is about to publish a
devasting story about another young lawyer. Valentina Rossi is
contemplating a run for office and Ridge wants to publish a story
claiming that she and her former boss had an illicit romance,
leading to the termination of an unwanted pregnancy. Although most
readers might want to dig into the potentially salacious details, a
proceduralist can sense a vertical choice of law issue that has
divided lower federal courts: does a state's anti-SLAPP law apply
in federal court? For the answers, be sure to read the new
simulations.
