Summer Intersession or Fall 2013 Initial Class Assignment for:

Civil Procedure § B

Instructor: Professor Rensberger

First class date: Monday, August 19, 2013

Posting date: Aug 1, 2013 @ 09:35:59

Instructions:

For Monday, August 19, please skim pages 1-27 and prepare in detail 
for recitation pages 27-40 and 60-66.  On Wednesday, August 21, we 
will cover pages 66-84.

The casebook is Friedenthal, Miller, Sexton, Hirschkoff, CIVIL 
PROCEDURE, CASES AND MATERIALS (11th ed.).  Please note the 
edition.  The 11th is brand new.  There are no doubt used 10th 
edition books for sale.  Do not buy a 10th edition.  Also 
required is the paperback Rules and Statutory supplement.

For each class you should be prepared to: (1) discuss the facts, 
issues, holding and rationale of each principal case within the 
assignment; (2) discuss the materials (including the note cases) 
contained in the notes and questions following the principal cases; 
and (3) discuss and apply the relevant Federal Rules, statutes, and 
constitutional provisions.

I will make assignments for the next week’s class on each 
Wednesday.  In addition, I will be posting the class assignments on 
the Stanley Course Page.  Go to stanley.stcl.edu, login, go to the 
My Courses tab, and select this course.  PLEASE NOTE that you are 
responsible for information I place on the Course Page.
