- Title
Toward A New Federalism in State Civil Justice: Developing a Uniform Code of State Civil Procedure Through a Collaborative Rule-Making Process.
- Authors
Koppel, Glenn S.
- Abstract
The article presents information on the development of national procedural uniformity in American civil justice. The procedural reform in American civil justice emanate from the states themselves in the form of a national code of state civil procedure. A central idea of the reform is that national procedural uniformity among state courts remains a desirable, viable, and achievable goal despite the failure of the top-down federal-rules-model approach to achieve that goal. The momentum for developing uniform state procedural rules should originate with the states themselves.
