The third edition of Constitutional Law: A Context and Practice Casebook reflects important recent developments in constitutional law and highlights newly contested areas, including issues involving freedom of speech and religion, executive powers and immunities, and the scope of congressional authority.
This entirely revised and updated edition contains new text, questions, and practical exercises that cover both doctrine and the foundational client-advising skills to be tested on the "next generation" bar exam.
Every chapter in this innovative casebook places students in roles as practitioners handling simulated law practice problems; provides context in the form of an overview of the law, similar to that which an attorney would read before reading cases in a new subject area; includes questions designed to encourage students to find the applicable statutes and cases on point in the state where the student is planning to practice law; includes exercises, visual aids, and case reading scaffolds, designed to engage students with a wide range of learning styles; and ends with professionalism questions addressing ethical and professional identity questions suggested by the materials in the chapter.
This book offers hundreds of multiple-choice questions that help first-year law students and legal practitioners master the core concepts of Civil Procedure.
The goal of this book is to provide a stripped-down version of most traditional textbooks and provide a more affordable option for students while still conveying the core elements of corrections.
