Civil Procedure II, (D. Am*nn)
This three-unit version of Civil Procedure II will focus primarily on two subjects, choice of forum and choice of law.; time permitting, it also will touch on how these subjects relate to complex litigation. “Choice of forum” concerns which tribunals have power to adjudicate a dispute and how parties choose among available tribunals. Topics to be covered include personal and subject-matter jurisdiction, venue and change of venue, and forum non conveniens. “Choice of law” concerns the law that a particular tribunal will apply in order to adjudicate a dispute. Within this subject, the course will concentrate on selecting between state law and federal law in federal courts, the issue in the Supreme Court’s 1938 decision in Erie R.R. v. Tompkins.
