In this invaluable three-volume set, you'll get an analysis of every aspect of
the statute from the plaintiffs' and defendants' side of the courtroom - from
direction on potential to considerations about choice of forum. This reference
also gives you citations to state and district court decisions and
circuit-by-circuit breakdowns of leading decisions. Plus, you'll explore
constitutional rights enforceable under Section 1983, every facet of
municipal liability and qualified immunity, bifurcating claims against
officers and municipalities, and more. Martin A. Schwartz, an expert of
Section 1983 actions, goes a step further and provides positions on open
issues.
