Federal Rules of Civil Procedure help on Westlaw/Lexis?

Post by stinger35 » Tue Apr 13, 2010 6:42 pm

I have heard that there are explanations/supplements that deal with the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure that are available on West or Lexis - can anyone explain to me where to find this material?

I want to make sure I have all the rules down pat when it comes exam time, both in terms of understanding them as well as being able to cite them on the exam. While a book like this -> http://www.amazon.com/Students-Federal- ... Descending - seems as if it would be perfect, my library does not carry a copy and I simply can't bring myself to buy yet another supplement for this semester. Anything similar on west/lexis would be greatly appreciated.

thanks.

Are you looking for the free outline on Lexis?... If so, it kinda sucks.

Just buy whatever you need of half.com. You can get stuff cheap there. Also, emanuels is awesome for FRCP and I think it covered most of the rules (I mean are you really going to read a 1381 page book like the one you have in you link at this point in the semester?).
