Legalines is SOLID

I purchased this text since it was tailored to my text book. The only minor issue is that this is made for the 15th edition and I have the 16th edition... (I guess a new one is not out yet). However this has not mattered thus far. Legalines is a helpful tool in trimming down time spent preparing for class since it has the case summaries. Since the book includes the black letter law that puts it ahead of other similar supplements such as the "high court summaries" series. A good buy.

A Must for First Year Law Students

This Legalines edition is the best one yet that I have used. It briefs all of the important cases in the Kadish casebook, as well as offering insightful comments. The book serves as a useful tool because it uses a step-by-step analysis of the court's reasoning. This analysis is essential to understanding how the different cases support, contradict, and stray from prior caselaw. This edition is also more useful than other study aids that I have purchased because it follows a specific casebook. My class used the Kadish casebook, a volume containing over 800 pages. Organizing and outlining all of the essential points from 800 pages is a task that would be almost impossible, yet the Legalines book does it and does it well. I used this casebook to help me study for my exam and it really made a difference. I was able to finally see the 'big picture' of the course and to remember the finer points of the major cases. I highly recommend this book to anyone taking Constitutional Law. As most law students know, digesting and remembering all of the important details of a course can be difficult and time consuming. I would recommend Legalines because it is keyed to specific casebooks and because it is packed with all the right information.
