This casebook is the Concise, and very modern, Edition of a respected classic of civil procedure casebooks. The Survey. The key to its brevity is its step-by-step survey of the subject in Part One. This survey is more than an introduction. It suffices to give the students a complete and solid grounding in civil procedure. There is a tight 250-page comprehensive treatment of modern civil procedure, comprising cases and commentaries and text and questions that progress from pretrial to settlement to trial to judgment to appeal to jurisdiction to complex litigation. In our casebook, brief yet thorough coverage can be effected through its efficient and systematic step-by-step survey. The survey in the Concise Edition has been somewhat beefed up to compensate for the omission of full chapters on pretrial, trial, appeal, and complex litigation. Moreover, the Concise Edition has been revised to account for changes in the law since the casebooks Tenth Edition emerged las
