The Pretrial Process

Description

Now updated to reflect the most recent amendments to the Federal Rules and developments in case law, The Pretrial Process addresses issues associated with basic civil litigation tasks such as drafting pleadings, interviewing and counseling clients, developing facts, preparing interrogatories, taking depositions, and filing motions. The Pretrial Process covers all stages of pretrial litigation comprehensively, pragmatically, and succinctly without being over-simplified.
This book is designed to be useful both to clinical students working on their first cases and to classroom students expecting an intellectually satisfying law school experience. The third edition also includes expanded discussions of virtual conferences, depositions, and hearings.
A teacher's manual is available, and adopters will have access to simulation case files and other teaching resources. If you are a professor using this book for a class, please contact Rachael Meier at remeier@cap-press.com to request access to the casefiles.
