Description

Complex Litigation and Its Alternatives 3rd Edition Jay Tidmarsh

ISBN: 9781636596075

This comprehensive treatise examines the legal and practical challenges involved in complex litigation, covering a broad range of issues that arise when large numbers of claims must be managed and resolved. Topics include mechanisms for consolidating claims, with extensive discussions of multidistrict litigation (MDL) and class actions; pretrial procedures for narrowing disputed issues and efficiently collecting evidence; trial strategies for handling large-scale disputes; and methods of providing remedies for widespread harm. In addition to traditional litigation, the book explores the growing use of alternative dispute resolution methods for resolving mass claims.

Combining sophisticated legal analysis with an accessible presentation, this text is suitable for academic research, legal practice, and law school instruction. It is designed to complement existing complex litigation casebooks but can also be used independently as a primary classroom resource.

The new edition significantly expands its coverage of the roles played by the Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation and transferee judges in federal civil litigation. It also examines the growing influence of third-party litigation financing, the use of bankruptcy proceedings as a means of aggregating claims, and the evolution of attorneys' fees over time. Thoroughly updated with extensive footnotes and case law developments since 2018, this edition provides an in-depth and current resource on complex litigation for law students, scholars, and legal practitioners.
