Description

This innovative casebook on legal method and process introduces students to the synthesis of judicial opinions, analysis of statutory issues, and the role of the lawyer, the courts, and the legislature in conflict resolution. The book challenges students with diverse topics in civil procedure, torts, and criminal law. Its Anatomy of a Legal Dispute shows students how a case progresses through the court system and how a seemingly straightforward car accident case may raise complex jurisdiction and judgment collection issues, and issues relating to ancillary proceedings and litigation strategy. The Sixth Edition offers updated advice for students beginning their legal studies and plug-and-play exercises to help faculty bring classroom discussion of precedent into today’s context.
