H2O Casebook Collection

This United States Civil Procedure casebook has been written for Chinese and other foreign students who are unlikely to practice in the United States. The goal of the book is to set the U.S. procedural system in a polycentric, legally pluralistic context that helps non-US students understand how hard and soft law from multiple sources, including but not limited to the US, can impact their clients. It explores exceptional and not so exceptional aspects of the US system, using frequent references to cases involving international - especially Chinese - litigants to illustrate core elements of the US process.
