A very important caveat, April 26, 2007
This review is from: Federal Courts (Gilbert Law Summaries) (Paperback)
Instead of reviewing this item, which I cannot do yet not having gone through it thoroughly, I will just offer a very important warning: this book is from 1996 and quite a lot of important things have occurred in federal jurisdiction jurisprudence since then. Not the least of which are cases like Allapattah (2005), Saudi (2005, dealing with Rooker-Feldman), and dozens of Circuit and District court cases of some utility. Class Actions have also changed meaningfully.
So, if you do use this book, you'll definitely need to supplement it with other sources.

Good Overview, December 6, 2009
This review is from: Federal Courts (Gilbert Law Summaries) (Paperback)
The Gilbert Law Summary for Federal Courts was perfect for me and my classmates, especially because we took the course with one of the authors of the outline. That gave us confidence that we knew exactly what the professor wanted us to know.
