 A good casebook on all points. December 15, 2007

This was my favorite casebook of my 1L classes. I have no complaints about it. Things I like: Plain English writing style, use of modern cases (Internet, etc.), extensive use of hypos as questions after cases, thought-provoking and difficult questions - many of them with answers or hints. If you can do these, you'll be prepared for whatever issues appear on exams.

I had to get this book for civil proceedure class at law school. I had a copy of the 6th edition form a buddy but it was too different form the required 7th edition so I dropped the $90. School was selling them for $140 so get it here instead. I really wanted to save the $90 and use an older edition as I am doing in torts but the books were just too different and it was not worth it. If you need this book for next year or next semester you might want to wait and get a used copy.
The book is very easy to read and the most similar to my undergrad textbooks.
Do not 12(b)6 my advice. December 23, 2008

If you remotely understood the humor in my header than this book is fine for you. The truth is Civil Procedure is not exactly the stuff that made us want to be lawyers, but when we finish law school, who is going to forget Asahi, or Erie!, or World-Wide Volkswagen, or hmm... Gibbs! Yeazell has all the cases you need in here. I do think Semtek in the Erie section is odd because preclusion has not been introduced. And I think it is the odd placement, if you read the book linearly rather than jumped around, that makes some of the reviewers here hate this book. But this is one of the better books. Couple this sucker with Glannon and presto you will be screaming "There ain't no subject matter jurisdiction under 1331--it is all a lie!" In no time. Also, do yourself a favor and remember Kroger v. Owens Electric--it will come to bite you in the you know what if you don't.
