Description and Table of Contents

Description

This legal research exercise book helps students master efficient legal research skills through hands-on problems. The 12th edition contains fifteen assignments, with all new problems. Each assignment contains four variations: two variations using the print materials, one exercise using Westlaw Classic or WestlawNext, and one exercise using Lexis.com or Lexis Advance. This format provides instructors more flexibility in what exercises they assign and when they assign them. The assignments cover basic legal research, including reporters, digests, citators, statutes, and advanced materials including federal legislative history and federal administrative law. There are also review problems, appropriate for basic and advanced legal research classes. The new edition's questions/answers follow the 19th edition of The Bluebook: A Uniform System of Citation (2010).
