Description

Every case cited in this legacy law eBook is linked to the source and it also contains over 300 links to statutory authorities for all 50 states, making it suitable for a nationwide audience. These invaluable references are available at the touch of your fingertips as you prepare for, or learn about, critical strategies for key civil trial procedures. Mastering the Mechanics of Civil Jury Trials is THE eBook for law students, practicing attorneys, and all who are interested in law. Written by a veritable dream team of civil litigators, one a sitting judge, and all among the top-rated attorneys in the state of California, it’s endorsed by a Who’s Who of star attorneys, Bar associations, and universities due to the full color of real cases versus the black and white limitations of textbook study. Tyler G. Draa et al. are paying it forward with #LegacyLaw. The sequential mechanics of plaintiff or defendant representation is laid out clearly, with practice and planning in mind, gleaned from decades of real practice, including judicial comments throughout, covering: Reconnaissance; Pre-Trial Management; Voir Dire; Motions; Evidence; Cross and Direct Examination; Settlements; Arguments; and every step in between that should be but is not taught in law schools. Numerous legal references apply, enhanced by exhaustively comprehensive state-by-state Appendices listing statutory rulings covering important aspects of trial, including: Peremptory Challenges; Evidentiary Hearings; Jury Instructions; Computer Animation & Other Simulations; Statutes Mirroring CCP 776; and Impeaching Experts With Learned Treatises. In true pay-it-forward fashion, a portion of author proceeds are designated to continuing education organizations and charitable causes.
