2.0 out of 5 stars
Not Very Helpful,
By Law School Grad (California) - See all my reviews
This review is from: California Civil Procedure in a Nutshell (In a Nutshell (West Publishing)) (Paperback)
I was hesitant to purchase a supplement during my last few weeks of law school, but I assumed that a book on California Civil Procedure would help me later in my career. Unfortunately, I found the explanations in this nutshell to be superficial and unhelpful. The book was of little to no help to me in my exam preparations, and I will probably never look at it again.

I bought this book to study for the CA bar exam and found it pretty helpful. There are quite a few typos in it though.
