No inserts, no pocket parts, no space needed other than your hard drive! For just $199 for NPAP members and $249 for non-members, you can have access to a full year of quarterly updates on critical Section 1983 case law developments from Professor Karen Blum, NPAP Advisory Board member, Professor at Suffolk University School of Law and Section 1983 expert.

Professor Blum's complete outlines on Section 1983 Litigation and Qualified Immunity under Section 1983 are available on our website. The 'Overview of Section 1983 Litigation' outline is approximately 800 pages long, the 'Qualified Immunity' outline consists of over 1000 pages; both are updated quarterly. The outlines may be downloaded as PDF files. (Adobe Reader®)

While these documents are not intended to replace traditional treatises in the area of Section 1983 Litigation, they will keep you apprised of the latest case law developments in some of the most litigated issues under Section 1983. In this rapidly evolving area of the law, with complex questions creating Circuit splits and variations, it is critical for both plaintiffs' and defendants' attorneys to be as current as possible on the law in their own Circuits.

Each annual subscription allows downloading of additional periodic cumulative updates. Subscribers are notified by email when a newly updated document becomes available.
