Cross, Abramson, and Deason's Civil Procedure, Cases, Problems and Exercises, 3d

This book differs from other civil procedure casebooks in several ways. The most significant way is that it is structured around problems and exercises to help students become accustomed to reading and using the rule itself, rather than relying on a court's paraphrasing of that rule. Second, the book whenever possible uses cases decided in the last decade, underscoring that procedure is a subject in constant flux. These materials are all supplemented by extensive notes. The result is a very teachable book and useful desk reference. This edition includes updates of all the cases and a revamp of several chapters.
