Описание:

Justice and Efficiency in Mega-Litigation explores the phenomenon of extremely long-running, resource-intensive civil litigation known as 'mega-litigation'. Such litigation challenges the courts to reconcile the objectives of justice and efficiency - for the parties to the case and for the community. Drawing on interviews with judges of the courts of England and Wales, and of Australia, this book shows how judges have responded to these challenges.
It situates mega-litigation within broader developments in civil procedure and case management, as well as theoretical debates about the role of courts and the purpose of civil procedure. The book highlights the importance of intensive, creative and flexible case management; focus on the issues in dispute; and, ultimately, each judge's expert intuition.

Описание: Prosecutes the civil litigation system and proposes practical reforms to increase access to the courts and reduce costs.

Civil litigation has come under fire in recent years. Some critics portray a system of dishonest lawyers and undeserving litigants who prevail too often, and are awarded too much money. Others criticize the civil justice system for being out of reach for many who have suffered real injury. But contrary to these perspectives and popular belief, the civil justice system in the United States is not out of control.

In Civil Justice Reconsidered, Steven Croley demonstrates that civil litigation is, for the most part, socially beneficial. An effective civil litigation system is accessible to parties who have suffered legal wrongs, and it is reliable in the sense that those with stronger claims tend to prevail over those with weaker claims. However, while most of the system's failures are overstated, they are not wholly off base; civil litigation often imposes excessive costs that, among other unfortunate consequences, impede access to the courts, and Croley offers ways to reform civil litigation in the interest of justice for potential plaintiffs and defendants, and for the rule of law itself.

A better litigation system matters only because of what is at stake for real people, and Civil Justice Reconsidered speaks to the thought leaders, litigation reformers, members of the bar and bench, and policymakers who can answer the call for reforming civil litigation in the United States.

Class Actions in Canada is a timely exploration of the evolution of collective litigation in Canada.

Описание: This new text provides the professor with great flexibility in teaching year-long civil procedure courses or more condensed one-semester offerings. The text puts students in the position of lawyers and asks them to consider the strategic, tactical, and ethical choices they will confront in practice. Features distinguishing this text include:The text has been written to incorporate the December 1, 2015, amendments to the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure and the most recent statutes and cases, rather than simply adding new developments onto an older text.The cases selected, many at the district court level, are contemporary in both the law applied and case subject matter including actions involving same-sex marriage, mortgage-default litigation, electronic discovery, and the recusal of the federal district judge handling the challenge to New York City's ""stop and frisk"" litigation.The initial case in the text, Leonard v. PepsiCo, is one that students are likely to encounter in their contracts course but that presents rich procedural questions as well.Ethical issues are stressed throughout the text, including the ethical choices open to the lawyers in the cases presented and citations to the Model Rules of Professional Conduct and applicable state ethical rules.The chapters conclude with both essay and multiple-choice questions that can be assigned by the professor for exam practice or class discussion or can be used by individual students to review each chapter's material.More than 40 figures are included in the text, to present procedural law in tabular and visual form.In these many ways, Civil Procedure: Representing Clients in Civil Litigation presents a unique way in which to engage your students in actively learning civil procedure and understanding the civil litigation process.
