Description

This book offers a coherent, practical vision of state and local government law that emphasizes skills. While much of law school focuses on federal law, the practice of most lawyers regularly involves non-federal structures and institutions. Students need a practical understanding of the sources and principles of state and local government law. The authors approach the subject from a transactional perspective, emphasizing the skills students will need to maneuver through both the sources and substance of the various levels of state and local law. The Problems in the book require students to use strategic thinking as they consider the intertwining dimensions of federal, state, and local law that impact on a client's situation. Each Problem includes a presentation of the factual situation, a portfolio of legal authorities, Notes and Questions to highlight key concepts, and suggested analytical approaches as guides to solving the Problem.
