Civil Procedure

Covering jurisdiction, choice of law, joinder of parties and claims, and former judgments this outline has numerous links to the major U.S. Supreme Court cases in the field as well as to the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. Civil Procedure is the "blueprint" for all litigation.

 

 

Civil Procedure - An Overview

Broadly speaking, civil procedure consists of the rules by which courts conduct civil trials. "Civil trials" concern the judicial resolution of claims by one individual or group against another and is to be distinguished from "criminal trials," in which the state prosecutes an individual for violation of criminal law.

 

An Overview of Civil Procedure

Criminal procedure also brings balance to criminal law because the ultimate ends of criminal law are dual, conflicting, or contradictory -- to acquit the innocent AND to convict the guilty. It's difficult to set up any kind of machinery of justice that accomplishes both these goals. The easier you make it to prove guilt, the more difficult it is to establish innocence.

 

Federal Rules of Civil Procedure

These rules govern the procedure in the United States district courts in all suits of a civil nature whether cognizable as cases at law or in equity or in admiralty, with the exceptions stated in Rule 81. They shall be construed and administered to secure the just, speedy, and inexpensive determination of every action.
