Field, Kaplan and Clermont's Materials for a Basic Course in Civil Procedure, Seventh Edition, provides detailed information on civil procedure. The casebook provides the tools for fast, easy, on-point research. Part of the University Casebook Series®, it includes selected cases designed to illustrate the development of a body of law on a particular subject. Text and explanatory materials designed for law study accompany the cases.
