In this new edition, the authors have retained the basic structure of their successful casebook while updating materials, trimming, and substituting where needed to ensure that the material remains topical and current. Emerging personal jurisdiction problems in cases involving use of the Internet are explored. Extensive treatment of mass tort litigation has been added. Expected amendments to the discovery rules are included in the discovery chapter. Both the Supreme Court’s decision in Gasperini v. Center for Humanities and its 1999 removability decision, Murphy Brothers, Inc. v. Michetti Pipe Stringing, Inc., are included as principal cases with extensive Notes and Questions.

The four years since the publication of the 5th edition the last years of the Rehnquist Court and the first year of the Roberts Court have seen many changes and transitions. The Supreme Court has continued to refine or alter doctrines of federal jurisdiction, including doctrines regarding state sovereign immunity, habeas corpus, federal question jurisdiction, supplemental jurisdiction, and others. The 6th edition contains a number of new Supreme Court cases as principal cases, including Grable &amp; Sons Metal Products, Inc. v. Darue Engineering &amp; Manufacturing on federal question jurisdiction, Exxon Mobil Corp. v. Allapattah Services, Inc. on supplemental jurisdiction, and Marshall v. Marshall on the probate exception to federal jurisdiction. Many other recent cases are discussed extensively in the notes, including Nevada Dept. of Human Resources v. Hibbs, Tennessee v. Lane, and Central Virginia Community College v. Katz on state sovereign immunity, and Vieth v. Jubelirer and LULAC v. Perry on political questions. There is also a new discussion of habeas in the context of the war on terrorism. Throughout, the 6th edition maintains the core pedagogic structure and values that have characterized the book since its very first edition.

Federal Courts:Cases, Comments and Questions, 6th Edition, 2008 Supplement

This Updated 4th Edition revises the casebook to account for the restyling of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. The pagination has not changed from the 4th Edition (2005). Students will be alerted to the new numbering and wording of the Rules; but teachers can continue to use their current versions of the 4th edition as originally published. On December 1, 2007, the restyled Federal Rules went into effect. The hope is that this restyling will pay dividends for decades, and that beginning law students will be among the first beneficiaries. For them, the restyled rules will be the only rules they will know in their professional careers. We assume that most teachers will have their students read and learn from the restyled rules. But this watershed does not change what's in the decided cases under the rules as they were written before Dec. 1, 2007. So students may find it unnerving for their rule pamphlets to say something different from what they find quoted in the cases in the casebook. The Updated 4th Edition is designed to deal with these issues. It has been changed only to reflect changes in numbering or wording of the rules that resulted from the restyling project. Teachers who have been using the 4th edition as published in 2005 can continue to use it; they need not start working afresh with the updated 4th edition. To facilitate that continued use of the existing book, we will soon circulate a listing of the changes in this revised edition. Teachers will therefore be able simply to annotate their copies of the original 4th edition and have the equivalent of what the students possess in the updated 4th edition. In addition, the authors have added an Appendix including two post-publication decisions that were previously handled by circulating edited versions suitable for class handouts--Bell Atlantic Corp. v. Twombly and Exxon Mobil Corp. v. Allapattah Services, Inc. The authors have included footnotes on the pages where they recommend substituting these cases to refer readers to them. In 2009, we expect to publish the 5th edition. That will, of course, be based on the restyled rules, but it move far beyond the minimal accounting for small numbering and wording changes resulting from restyling. We are pleased to announce that Professor James Pfander, of Northwestern University Law School, will be a new co-author on the 5th edition.
