Am I the only person who would be completely hosed if there's an essay question over claim/issue preclusion?

[JurorEight]

The February 2013 UBE CivPro hypo was legitimately 100% about claim and issue preclusion. I could probably dance my way around the claim preclusion bit, but the issue preclusion would be the death of me.

Anybody else in this boat?

Same Issue
Actually Litigated, validly decided, essential to judgment
Against Whom Preclusion Is Sought

just say those elements to yourself a bunch of times now
