FRCP Amendments Approved

On April 30, the Supreme Court approved amendments to:

Civil Rules 4, 5.1, 9, 11, 14, 16, 26, 30, 31, 33, 34, 37, 40, 45, 50, 71.1, and 78; Comprehensive Restyle Civil Rules 1-86; Restyle Illustrative Civil Forms; and new Civil Rule 5.2.

At this link, you can find a document prepared by the Advisory Committee regarding the restyling.  In dual-column form, it displays the text of the old rule on the left and of the restyled rule on the right.  Dial-up users beware; it's a 255-page .pdf file. (Benjamin Spencer reports Here)    --RR
