Instructor Name(s)
Eichhorn
Textbook Information
Our required texts are as follows:
- Richard D. Freer, Civil Procedure (5th ed. 2022).
- Joseph Glannon, Civil Procedure: Examples & Explanations (8th ed. 2018). There is now a new, 9th, edition available, but it doesn’t add much at all to the 8th edition, which is much cheaper on online sites like Amazon. The assigned readings in the syllabus have page numbers for both editions for folks who really want the 9th edition.
