ABA Publications: Juries and Trials
The Litigation Manual: Jury Trials
Edited By Weyman I. Lundquist and Alyson Pytte The Litigation Manual has been valued as much for its refreshing style as its practical, how-to approach. This addition to The Litigation Manual library focuses on jury trials. The book takes you step-by-step through the stages of a jury trial, providing concrete, time-proven techniques and innovative ideas from many of the country’s preeminent trial lawyers and judges. And it contains some of the best legal writing available-clear, informal and never dull. Read it and you will learn how to deal more effectively with the situations you face in a jury trial.

Tenth Anniversary of the Bernard E. Witkin Memorial Symposium
Susanne Pierce Dyer, Reference/Devilopment Librarian, Bernard E. Witkin Alemeda County Law Library in Oakland, California has sent the following information and announcement regarding the tenth anniversary of the Bernard E. Witkin Memorial Symposium:
“How quickly a decade flies by! As we look back to the first Witkin lecture in May of 1998, it is hard to believe that our tenth anniversary event is coming soon. Now called the Bernard E. Witkin Memorial Symposium, it is co-sponsored the Bernard E. Witkin Alameda County Law Library and the Witkin Legal Institute.”
“This year’s topic is “Taking your Practice to New Heights with Effective Management Techniques and Cutting Edge Technologies.” We are very grateful for the assistance of members of the State Bar of California Section on Law Practice Management and Technology for their assistance in organizing the program and recruiting speakers.”
