Book Description

0314184023 978-0314184023 July 16, 2009 10
The 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.

4.0 out of 5 stars Pretty good, March 11, 2011
This review is from: Civil Procedure, Cases and Materials, 10th (American Casebook Series) (Hardcover)
As far as casebooks go I haven't had any complaints with the book except for the fact that this new edition has turned some really important cases into note cases, so students may overlook them and their importance. However, other than that this book is pretty good.

3.0 out of 5 stars Good Luck, September 27, 2010
This review is from: Civil Procedure, Cases and Materials, 10th (American Casebook Series) (Hardcover)
The publisher of this book has done a absolute awful job or organizing the material. If your professor assigns you this reading as your primary text for Civil Procedure may god have mercy on your soul.

I have two recommendation both in the form of supplements

The first which is designed to follow this casebook. "Learning Civil Procedure" by: David Dithfurth
The Second, a more general but just as valuable. "Examples and Explanations" by: Aspen Publishing, make sure to get the latest edition.

Good Luck in Law School!

4.0 out of 5 stars Civil Procedure: Cases & Materials, 10th Ed., October 16, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Civil Procedure, Cases and Materials, 10th (American Casebook Series) (Hardcover)
This is a hard cover textbook of over 1300 pages. It contains extensive Notes & Questions after every section and ends with a Critique of Adversarial Justice, which is quite interesting. It also has a section on Transfer of Venue in Federal Courts and Court's Competency. There is a supplemental book (2010 & 2011)to this book and should be purchased at the same time.
