Steinman — Beyond the Supplements

Removal and Remand—Beyond the Supplements, a new electronic publication by Joan Steinman, is now available on SSRN. The paper is a compilation of case descriptions and citations to law review articles that complements the contents of the 2014 Pocket Parts to volumes 14B and C of the Wright & Miller treatise on Federal Practice and Procedure. Steinman provides an explanation for the compilation in the introduction:

For many years I have prepared the annual Pocket Parts and Supplements for volumes 14B and C of Wright, Miller, Cooper & Steinman, Federal Practice & Procedure , which address the law of removal and remand of cases from state to federal court and back. As the number of cases in this and many other areas of federal practice and procedure has exploded, the publishers of the treatise have decided that the treatise should be increasingly selective in describing new case developments. In order to further assist lawyers, judges, and professors in their research of the law of removal and remand, I have decided to electronically publish a compilation of cases and law review articles that either are not included at all in the volume 14B and C Pocket Parts or are cited there for different propositions than are reflected in this electronic publication. The cases that are included in this electronic compilation came to my attention between mid-October, 2012, and mid-October, 2013.

The cases that came to my attention during that same time period and that I deemed sufficiently noteworthy to include in volumes 14B and C of  Federal Practice & Procedure will appear in the 2014 Pocket Parts.
