The casebook helps students recognize the relevance of procedural issues in litigation by:
- using the Socratic method to encourage student thought, with introductory text, examples, and hypotheticals
- creating a sophisticated yet clear and straightforward text
- opening with an overview of the entire civil litigation process, using the landmark N.Y. Times v. Sullivan case, real pleadings, and actual discovery materials to introduce basic elements of civil litigation
- showing the connection between the classroom and the courtroom with an innovative "Anatomy of a Litigation" case study chapter that leads students systematically through the process from pleadings to verdict and requires students to apply what they learn to a factually complex tort case centered around an airplane crash
- providing comprehensive coverage of the full range of topics
- utilizing extensive notes and questions to frame deep, conceptual issues and provide the beginning of the answer so students are able to develop strategic and critical thinking skills
