Description
Learning Civil Procedure David A. Dittfurth ISBN 9780890895542
In this book, Dittfurth employs a variety of teaching tools to clarify the jurisdictional and procedural issues that arise in federal courts. The text explains the relevant rules as they function in the life of a case and reinforces those explanations through carefully constructed hypotheticals, complete with answers, to deepen the reader’s understanding of how specific rules operate in practice. Procedure is presented not in isolation, but in close relationship to the substantive elements of litigation—causes of action, remedies, and defenses—so that students can better grasp how adjudicative processes serve the core objectives of a lawsuit.
The book also introduces students to the information-gathering and analytical skills that are central to success in law school. It provides clear, accessible explanations of foundational legal concepts, supported by an extensive glossary that explains terms in context rather than offering bare definitions.
One of the most challenging aspects of beginning legal education is learning how law is created, interpreted, and applied by courts. While undergraduate training often emphasizes locating “black-letter law,” this book helps students develop the more sophisticated skill of legal reasoning—or legal advocacy—by showing how lawyers analyze precedent, distinguish unfavorable authority, and persuasively argue for the application of more favorable rules.
