As subscribers to Federal Jury Practice & Instructions (I still call it
Devitt and Blackmar) we have received a companion work entitled Federal
Jury Practice & Instructions Companion Handbook (paperback, at a cost of
$74.90). Its accompanying paperwork says it provides entire jury
charges that have actually been used by federal judges at trial, each
set of real-case instructions prefaced with the facts giving rise to the
case, an overview of the legal elements and applicable cross references.
I'd be interested to know the assessment other librarians have made in
regard to this volume. I am undecided about retaining it for our firm's
library. (West actually sent a postage free return label and
acknowledged it was a "companion work." It appears since this volume is
marked 2006-2007 Edition, it may become an annual expense.) Are list
members keeping it or sending it back?
