Learning Civil Procedure provides a broad, student-centered,
user-friendly approach to civil procedure that is both clear and
sophisticated. Students build mastery of the material through the
presentation of examples and analyses. Students then move on to
involved problems similar to what they will encounter on final
examinations, bar examinations, and as lawyers. The book makes
great use of problems to facilitate dialogue in class and
correspondingly uses many fewer case excerpts than does the typical
casebook. Students will emerge as competent and culturally literate
lawyers because the book also includes the core "canon" of civil
procedure opinions as well as sufficient historical background.
Learning Civil Procedure is a book designed by authors who both
teach and litigate, making it the perfect tool for ensuring that
students are ready for the classroom, the bar exam, and real-world
litigation practice.
New book purchase includes complimentary digital access to the
eBook. What Makes A Student's Guide to the Federal Rules of Civil
Procedure Different? Text of the Rules, Title 28, and Constitution:
The 2023-2024 edition supplies what your students need—the text
of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure (as amended through
December 1, 2022), the frequently-consulted sections of the U.S.
Judiciary Code (as amended through February 1, 2022), and the text
of the U.S. Constitution. Most Rules Supplements available to
students contain that same content. But where most supplements
stop, A Student's Guide continues on…. PLUS… Student-Friendly
Orientation to Each Rule: What many students often find challenging
in studying Civil Procedure—and what is less likely to be found
in either a casebook or a conventional study aid—is an
understanding of how each Rule "fits" into the master scheme of
federal civil practice generally. A Student's Guide offers students
that very guidance. Three features follow the text of each Rule:
"How This Rule Fits In" explains for students the broad context of
each Rule and the role each plays in federal civil practice; "The
Architecture of this Rule" guides students in unpacking the
structure of those Rules that are especially long and confusing;
"How This Rule Works in Practice" helps students understand each
Rule's application, subpart by subpart, in the real-world,
practical life of practicing attorneys. PLUS… Citations to
Interpretative Case Law: Also unlike most other Rules Supplements,
A Student's Guide provides students with select, leading
interpretative case law analyzing the Rules and their subparts
(current through February 2023). This, then, converts this resource
into a "finding aid" of sorts, as students work through applied
problems in the context of the Rules. PLUS… A "Getting Started"
Overview to Federal Practice Concepts: Because many of the related
core concepts of federal practice are an amalgam of law found in
Rules, statutes, constitutional provisions, and case law, A
Student's Guide bridges that gulf with quick, orienting discussions
of central practice concepts like personal jurisdiction,
subject-matter jurisdiction, removal, venue, forum non conveniens,
the Erie Doctrine, and claim and issue preclusion. These
distillations allow students to acquire a broad view of those
related practice contexts. PLUS… A Handy Overview of Federal
Appellate Practice: A Student's Guide also includes a concise,
student-friendly overview of federal appellate practice. PLUS… A
Helpful Orientation to the Rulemaking Process: A Student's Guide
also includes a brief orientation for students to the process of
federal rulemaking, how the Rules originally came into existence,
and how they are amended.
