Text of the Rules Title 28 and Constitution: The 2022-2023 edition supplies what your students needthe text of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure (as amended through December 1 2021) the frequently-consulted sections of the U.S. Judiciary Code (as amended through February 1 2022) and the text of the U.S. Constitution. Most Rules Supplements available to students contain that same content. But where most supplements stop A Students Guide continues on. PLUS Student-Friendly Orientation to Each Rule: What many students often find challenging in studying Civil Procedureand what is less likely to be found in either a casebook or a conventional study aidis an understanding of how each Rule "fits" into the master scheme of federal civil practice generally. A Students Guide offers students that very guidance. Three features follow the text of each Rule: "How This Rule Fits In" explains for students the broad context of each Rule and the role each plays in federal civil practice; "The Architecture of this Rule" guides students in unpacking the structure of those Rules that are especially long and confusing; How This Rule Works in Practice helps students understand each Rules application subpart by subpart in the real-world practical life of practicing attorneys. PLUS Citations to Interpretative Case Law: Also unlike most other Rules Supplements A Students Guide provides students with select leading interpretative case law analyzing the Rules and their subparts (current through March 2022). This then converts this resource into a "finding aid of sorts as students work through applied problems in the context of the Rules.

These distillations allow students to acquire a broad view of those related practice contexts.
