"The Advocate"

On Saturday I received in the mail the current issue (not pictured here) of The Advocate, the official report of the State Bar of Texas Litigation Section.  The Advocate is published quarterly and features a wealth of substantive articles about the law affecting the procedural rules and other issues affecting Texas litigation, such as jury selection, jury charges, summary judgment, evidence, etc.  I have found it to be one of the most valuable benefits of the State Bar of Texas, let alone the Litigation Section!

The current issue (Volume 41 - Winter 2007) focuses on Jurisdiction and Venue, and more specifically, venue, subject matter jurisdiction, and personal jurisdiction.  The Editor of The Advocate, Mr. Lonny Hoffman, a University of Houston Law Center Professor, welcomes your comments and questions.  You can become a member of the Litigation Section for only $30 per year and receive The Advocate as a membership benefit.  You will be glad you did!
