The course is designed as a bridge to practice for students interested in a litigation career and should be of particular interest to students who intend to practice in large law firms or at firms of any size that handle business or "rights-based" litigation. Students work individually and as part of small "firms" to make and execute decisions at various stages of a civil lawsuit, typically a class action or another lawsuit raising advanced issues of civil procedure. The course requires completion of short writing assignments and participation in skills exercises, such as settlement negotiations and oral arguments.
