Jumbled and unorganized

This is one of the most chaotic outlines I have ever heard. It jumps around so much it is hard to stay focused, and some of the chapters are so long, you can't find your place. There is no way of staying on topic, as they jump from topic to topic every 45 seconds.

Disappointing

I’ve ordered other law books and this was the worst.
It jumps all over with the rules and subject matter.
I would recommend the Torts and Wills and Trusts, but not this.

A sound recorded commercial civil pro outline

Studying for a three day bar exam, this was an excellent refresher esp. because I'm sitting for CA and was educated/worked back east for my prior professional law practice... Ignore the brat comments on this thread because they sound more like laypeople looking for a script to read in their case(s) and/or want to be spoon fed an entire hornbook and/or casebook. Wake up and get real kids. Law is a marathon not a self-entitled sprint that's handed to any of us.. As one who worked full time, attended law school full time and helped my single mother raise three of us, the work I put in at law school and at various firms and later at PDS/DC paid off. . Anyone who is bothered to stay awake and can't listen to this presenter except for tedious whining, the practice of law is not your area of specialty. Or at least look in the mirror, lazy doesn't cut it in litigation at least, and defend your antinomy against the presenter and consider it's your POV not the presentation that is found lacking.

As good as bad can get

What would have made Civil Procedure AudioLearn - A Course Outline better?

Literally just reading off an outline. If you can swallow an entire package of saltine crackers at once then you may benefit from this. However it's too dry for the majority of the human race to stay awake to.

What could Kurt R. Mattson have done to make this a more enjoyable book for you?

make the content more relatable and understandable by giving examples and applying the rules

Quick and concise review of Civil Procedure

Any additional comments?

Decent review of civil procedure. I listened on the way to and from work and it helped familiarize me with some of the key concepts. Overall, I would recommend this audiobook.
