Manage episode 399335581 series 2391274
Welcome back to the Law School Toolbox podcast! Today, in our "Listen and Learn" series, we're discussing the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure – more specifically Rule 15, which deals with the instances in which a party can amend their pleading.
In this episode we discuss:
- A quick refresh on the statute of limitations
- The three major circumstances under which a party is likely to seek to amend their complaint
- Amending a party's pleading before the statute of limitations has run out
- How a plaintiff establishes that their amended complaint relates back to the original filing, if the statute of limitations has run out
- A look at the cases Krupski v. Costa Crociere and Singletary v. Pennsylvania Department of Corrections, in which the plaintiffs sought to amend their complaints
- Analyzing two hypos from previous California bar exams
