Civil Procedure: Cases and MaterialsThe Tenth Edition of this popular casebook explores cutting edge issues and incorporates new Supreme Court cases that impact subject-matter jurisdiction (Grable), pleading (Twombly), joinder (Pimentel), and other important topics, and also explores the effect of recent federal statutes such as the Class Action Fairness Act. The casebook covers all of the major topics that a professor might wish to teach in a first-year course, and can easily be adapted for courses of one- or two-semesters, of different credit hours, and with varied practical or theoretical emphases. An updated Teacher's Manual includes problems that may be explored in class, and offers suggestions for designing a course and for teaching the range of doctrines and cases. Where appropriate, the casebook provides comparative discussion that draws on state law and transnational practice. A chart will be provided for users of earlier editions to highlight changes to the text. |
