| Course Description | | |
This is an advanced civil procedure course focusing on a number of important aspects of civil procedure which are only superficially considered in the first year. It is useful for anyone interested in litigation or practice involving multi-party transactions such as involved commercial dealings, antitrust, securities, product liability, mass torts, consumer litigation and civil rights. The procedures considered include: joinder of parties and structure of law suits in complicated multi-party suits; duplicative litigation and use of stay orders, injunctions, consolidation, transfer to a more convenient forum, and transfer to the Multi District Panel; class actions; discovery and trial in complex cases; and res judicata and collateral estoppels. Problem excercises requiring written work may be assigned, and their satisfactory completion is necessary for credit. (2 credits)
