Getting supplemented
idwsj is one of the blawgs I check daily because the writing is just that good. Seriously.
So when I read this post from a few days ago, I figured I’d save myself the $$ and forgo buying supplements for my classes since it seemed they weren’t that useful. Especially when I almost feel comfortable in Contracts, Property and Torts. But Civil Procedure. Ohhh Civil Procedure…
I genuinely like CivPro. It’s basically the class on being a lawyer and doing lawyerly things. It’s rule-based. It’s fairly objective. And it’s the #1 source of 12(b)(6) jokes 
But I’m lost.
It’s not that the material is difficult to understand, we’re just blazing through so many Rules and statutes and case law that my mind is having a hard time digesting all the chunks of FRCP, USC and judicial commentary. So I broke down and dropped some cash on a copy of Emanuel’s CivPro law outlines. And then while I was at it made an impulse purchase of the Contracts, Property and Torts books also — just in case.
Final price tag: $$$$.
I’ll let you know if they’re useful at all. For my sake, cross your fingers
