Description
Summary:Struve profiles Geoffrey C. Hazard, Jr, Trustee Professor of Law at the University of Pennsylvania Law of School. Over the years, Hazard has explored numerous aspects of procedural history: royal use of writs in 12th-century England; interpleader in the 17th through 19th centuries; reliance on juries by courts of equity prior to 1791; the preclusive effects of decrees in various types of representative suits from the 17th to 20th centuries; and 17th- through 19th-century views of attorney-client privilege, to name a few. But though Hazard's perspective is illuminated by legal history, it is also grounded in modern concerns and informed by broad experience.
