An objective of this book is to present the law and the court system as they actually function. All relevant cases have been carefully selected and presented. The author has nevertheless maintained the essence of each case without resorting to overly short case briefs, which often fail to provide the readers with an accurate sense of the courts in action and of the reasoning process involved in arriving at a decision.
