A law school level coursebook on complex litigation and the adversary system. The book examines the four ways in which cases can be complex: joinder issues, pretrial issues, trial issues, and remedial issues. The book challenges the reader to consider whether the prevailing doctrines in these areas are consistent with modern adversarial theory, with the aspirations of our system of justice, and with a democratic system's constraints on judicial power. One volume.

This successor to Complex Litigation and the Adversary System, which was published in 1998, has been reorganized and the text completely rewritten. Most of the principal cases used in the new edition have been decided since 1998, and many of the notes discuss cases, literature, and developments that have arisen in the past decade. In the interest of creating an accessible, student-friendly text, the book has been substantially shortened through the careful editing of cases and the use of short, informative notes. At the same time, the casebook still attempts to achieve the prior casebook's comprehensive survey of the field.

Presents the results of the first national field survey of how lawyers use pretrial discovery in practice. Pretrial discovery is a complex set of rules and practices through which the adversaries in a civil dispute are literally allowed to "discover" the facts and legal arguments their opponents plan to use in the trial, with the purpose of improving the speed and quality of justice by reducing the element of trickery and surprise. Dr. Glaser examines the uses, problems, and advantages of discovery. He concludes that it is in wide use in federal civil cases, but that while the procedure has produced more information in some areas, it has failed to bring other improvements favored by its original authors.
