Clinton and excerpts from the jury selection, the court's charge, and the final arguments in Pennzoil Co. v. Texaco, Inc. • ""How to Read This Case"" notes precede particularly difficult cases • Traditional federal materials are supplemented with an introduction to differing practices of three benchmark states: California and Texas • A chapter devoted to Alternative Dispute Resolution methods 
 Cases and Materials on Civil Procedure is supplemented annually. A comprehensive Teacher's Manual is available to professors.

Reference

Evidence: Cases, Materials, and Problems is predicated more than ever on the notion that the Federal Rules of Evidence, their state progeny, and cases arising under them, are the major factors in the teaching of Evidence today. The authors have made some changes to build the book more explicitly around the Rules. Interesting or informative cases or materials from other jurisdictions or the common law are still included where those materials shed light on an issue or impart perspective by showing other ways of doing things. For instance, the significant differences such as those in California are highlighted while the authors still use the Federal Rules as the basic organizing principle for this edition. The general plan of the book is this. Each section starts out with a directive to read a particular rule or portion thereof. This may be followed by a brief background explanation of the area, if needed. Then come some essential and teachable cases and other primary materials, each usually followed by a set of expository notes (including some questions) exploring permutations and implications, and finally, some problems testing whether students can apply or critique what they have learned and integrate it with other topics and rules where necessary. Each note, question, or problem has a heading indicating what it treats, so that professors are able to identify the subjects they wish to cover, while students receive direction about the intended focus of each inquiry. The materials in this book cover a wide range of perspectives from intensely pragmatic concerns, through deeply philosophical policy issues, to new approaches to evidentiary analysis. Included are textual explanations, rules, cases, notes, questions, problems, jury instructions, articles, proposals, legislation, and excerpted testimony. Assignments may be tailored to suit the teacher's own preferences on how to best approach Evidence in an introductory course. From both Professor Rothstein and Professor Crump: To our beloved co-author Myrna Raeder, who did not see the publication of this volume, but whose work runs through all of it, and whose insight, wisdom and good humor stay with us after all these years.

This Property casebook makes the topic of Property Law come to life by emphasizing aspects of property transactions that are important today. At the same time, its organization and coverage reflects customary course coverage. On the one hand, the broad subjects covered in this book are traditional. Personal property, real estate transactions, servitudes, leases, common law estates, and land regulation - the subjects that long have formed the backbone of the Property course - are all present. On the other hand, this is a course for the Twenty-First Century. Personal property is treated through coverage of intellectual property: patents, copyrights, trademarks, and trade secrets. Property transactions are approached from the point of view of a contemporary lawyer representing a client. The book covers current documents, contemporary doctrines, and relevant concepts.
Property: Cases, Documents, and Lawyering Strategies is MacCrate-responsive. It develops the strategy component. Each of the transactional chapters features problems that put the student into lawyering situations. After all, lawyering is not about reading appellate court opinions and discussing in a vacuum whether the opinions are "good" or "bad." Instead, it is about resolving or avoiding problems. To achieve those ends, lawyers use strategies for counseling, negotiation, document preparation, and litigation. The problems are set in a variety of different property settings and call for a variety of strategies.
This book is also designed to fit with other courses traditionally taught in the first year. Therefore, analysis of statutes and reading of appellate opinions and other traditional materials make up the bulk of the book. Still, the strategies and competencies of property lawyering are developed here, so that students can learn about them.
This book also develops the public law aspects in the law of property. But most of the efforts of lawyers in property transactions focus upon negotiation and documentation of private agreements. The documents are as important as public law. Therefore, property transfer agreements, brokerage documents, deeds, mortgages, title insurance policies, promissory notes, and other documents all are set out and explored in this book.
