Civil Procedure: Cases and MaterialsUpdated to include a contemporary perspective, this popular classic casebook covers important developments in several areas of civil procedure and incorporates student and professor comments on previous editions. While it retains a focus on procedural evolution, the new ninth edition also discusses cutting-edge issues, such as transnational litigation and technology's effect on jurisdictional doctrine. To make way for new material, this edition abbreviates a few older cases and commentaries and streamlines some notes. |
