The Uncertain Foundation Of Work Product, Michael A. Blasie
Faculty Scholarly Works
Work product is heavily litigated, extensively studied, and sorely misunderstood. Most blissfully accept it as a combination of codified rules and the seminal case of Hickman v. Taylor. This view settles for a superficial understanding that neither recognizes nor questions underlining assumptions. The codified rules are legislative mandates, Hickman is Supreme Court common law, and they define the doctrine differently. To understand its proper scope of work product, we must know the basis of Hickman v. Taylor, whether it can coexist with codified rules, and what happens when they conflict. This Article takes the novel view that work product is …

Transnational Legal Practice, Laurel Terry
Faculty Scholarly Works
This Transnational Legal Practice (TLP) Year-in-Review article continues the tradition of collecting and publicizing the developments that occurred during the past year. It focuses on developments that occurred during 2016.
The 2014 TLP Year-in-Review provided a departure from the Year-in-Review’s typical method of presentation by identifying two categories of what that article called “TLP-Nets.” See Laurel S. Terry and Carole Silver, Transnational Legal Practice [2014], 49 ABA/SIL (n.s.) 413 (2015). One group of TLP-Nets is nationally based and the other is inherently transnational.
