This coursebook explores both the practical and substantive aspects of Texas civil pre-trial litigation. The materials cover all aspects of the processing of a civil case up to the period immediately before trial. It addresses such issues as:   The attorney's relationship with the client (when to take a case, forming the contract, Interviewing and counseling the client);   When to file the suit (statutes of limitation and other pre-filing requirements);   Protecting the right to recover (emergency relief such as TROs, sequestration, garnishment, and attachment);   Deciding where to file the case (subject matter jurisdiction, personal jurisdiction, and venue);   Defining and shaping the case (pleading practices, joinder, and preclusion doctrines);   Obtaining relevant Information (scope of discovery and discovery devices); and   Non-trial resolutions (default, summary judgment, settlement, and alternative dispute resolution).All of the chapters have been updated to include new cases and changes in rules and statutes. In addition to cases and supplemental notes, Texas Civil Procedure: Pre-Trial Litigation includes sample pleadings and other documents to help students understand and apply the procedural rules.
