This innovative casebook is accessible to first-year students and exposes them to the richness of the course. Each chapter begins with an "Introduction and Integration" section, which provides an overview and indicates how the materials relate to other topics. The book features clear original textual explication to set up consideration of cases, and addresses strategic, ethical, and remedial issues encountered in civil litigation. The eighth edition is wholly up-to-date through federal rule amendments of 2020.
