About this Item

ISBN-13: 9781584772200; ISBN-10: 1584772204. A Foundational Study of Code Pleading and the Transformation of American Civil Procedure, 1897 Hepburn, Charles M. The Historical Development of Code Pleading in America and England with Special Reference to the Codes of New York, Missouri, California, Kentucky, Iowa, Minnesota, Indiana, Ohio, Oregon, Washington, Nebraska, Wisconsin, Kansas, Nevada, North Dakota, South Dakota, Idaho, Montana, Arizona, North Carolina, South Carolina, Arkansas, Wyoming, Utah, Colorado, Connecticut, and Oklahoma. Cincinnati: W.H. Anderson & Co., 1897. xvi, 318 pp. Reprinted 2002 by The Lawbook Exchange, Ltd. Octavo (9" x 6"). xvi, 318 pp. ISBN: 9781584772200. Attractive smyth-sewn navy cloth bound hardcover with gilt stamped spine and front cover. New. $95. * This scholarly reprint of the scarce 1897 edition restores to circulation a significant work in the historical development of American civil procedure. In this rigorous and methodical study, Hepburn traces the essential elements of procedural law, with particular attention to the evolution of code pleading as it both departed from and remained grounded in common-law traditions. Written during a formative period of legal transformation, the volume documents how procedural reforms unfolded unevenly across jurisdictions. Hepburn's comparative analysis of twenty-seven states offers valuable insight into the diversity of late nineteenth-century practice, highlighting regional variation, experimentation, and the gradual institutionalization of codified systems. Of particular importance to researchers, this work captures a transitional moment in American legal history, when the movement toward procedural codification reshaped litigation and legal thought. Its detailed examination of doctrine and practice provides a contemporaneous perspective not readily available in later syntheses. This reprint will be of enduring value to academic law libraries and research collections supporting the study of legal history, comparative procedure, and the development of American jurisprudence.
