New Publication on Motions for Appropriate Relief

Jessie Smith has just published a new Administration of Justice Bulletin, entitled Motions for Appropriate Relief. It's available as a free download here. The focus is on procedural issues rather than the substantive law governing the various claims that can be asserted in an MAR, but as to questions of procedure, it is comprehensive, careful, and authoritative. It addresses topics such as what claims are cognizable in an MAR, the time limits for filing an MAR, which judge or judges can hear an MAR in various circumstances, discovery in MAR proceedings, the right to counsel, and so on. It's great stuff, and I highly recommend it.
