Materials in Trial Advocacy: Problems & Cases, 7th Edition (Aspen Coursebook Series)

A leading text in trial advocacy for its authority and effectiveness, Materials in Trial Advocacy uses actual cases and Trial Files to engage students in the whole process of litigation. Each chapter contains both civil and criminal problems presented at graduating levels of complexity.

The Seventh Edition welcomes new co-author Steve Easton, an accomplished litigator and award-winning trial advocacy teacher. Several new Trial Files and problems have been added to the text, while the Trial Files from Chapter 9 have been located to a CD to reduce the size and weight of the book itself.
