Your average law scool casebook on community property, 2004-07-14
This is your average law school textbook. For the layman (and sometimes even for the seasoned law student) legal cases can be hard to understand. Sometimes the notes at the end of the cases help, but sometimes they don't. While all cases are going to contain the structure and verbiage of "legalese," some books do a better job than others. This book is about par for the course. If you would like to see an example of an above average legal textbook, check out Constitutional Criminal Procedure by Lexis.
I used Aspen publishers' casenote book to help me along in understanding the cases in this book. I have a review that highly recommends that casenote book.
