Civil Procedure Stories: Briefs & Such

From Cornell Law Library's InSite current
awareness service, 3/28/2005:

" Civil Procedure Stories - Briefs and Such" is the web
companion to the text, Civil Procedure Stories.
Edited by Cornell Law School’s KevinClermont and
published by Foundation Press, Civil Procedure Stories
offers a behind-the-scenes look at fourteen Supreme
Court cases that are part of a basic course in civil procedure.
Each case is addressed in a separate chapter. The website
supplements each chapter of the text with PDF documents,
audio files, and image files. Supreme Court records and
briefs, transcripts, lower court opinions, correspondence
and other documents are made available in PDF. For
several of the cases, the site offers audio files of the oral
argument. Other items include maps, deeds, photographs,
and even a political cartoon."
There is no registration or fee requirements for access
to the materials on this site.
