From Chaos to Clarity: Procedural Misjoinder Revisited
Cokinos | Young attorney Timothy Delabar was recently published in the University of Texas School of Law’s The Review of Litigation, a law review devoted to trial and appellate advocacy, on the procedural misjoinder doctrine. Read through the history of the Supreme Court’s removal jurisprudence from the 1800’s until the enactment of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, understand how the circuit courts in the latter half of the twentieth century veered off course by not considering the procedural context in which the Supreme Court decided the seminal removal cases, and finally learn how courts should resolve the outstanding questions about procedural misjoinder.
