Thanks to @vanderbiltlaw for spotlighting "Faithless Prosecution" forthcoming in the GW Law Review https://t.co/AX9guEhFQb

[Jeffrey Bellin @BellinJ]

So impressed with the work of my colleagues at @vanderbiltlaw and at the very top of that list is @lsudeall

[Vanderbilt Law @vanderbiltlaw]

In Prof. @lsudeall's “Access to Justice” course, students worked alongside women incarcerated at the Debra K. Johnson Rehabilitation Center to co-author articles on criminal justice issues.

In this article, he explains why self-publishing while getting some royalty is a possible solution to the problem of high-dollar casebooks. I have yet to find a free casebook that was as good as the expensive alternatives. Jeff’s is better. 2/2

[Jeffrey Bellin @BellinJ]

@Judge_Leben Thank you @Judge_Leben !

[Steve Leben @Judge_Leben]

Prof. Jeff Bellin is an author of Wright & Miller on evidence law. It’s the treatise I always consulted as a lawyer and judge.

And he also self-publishes a $35 casebook for law school use on evidence law. I’ve used it several times, and is awesome! Thank you, Jeff. 1/

[Jeffrey Bellin @BellinJ]

@AviSiegal I agree - and thanks @AviSiegal!

[Jeffrey Bellin @BellinJ]

Thanks @AlexNunn - I have tried to answer every good question about hearsay in that treatise volume and that is a good question.

[Alex Nunn @AlexNunn]

@zachary_aman For a more comprehensive source, I think that @BellinJ's treatise entry on this is exactly correct. See Fed. Prac. & Proc. § 6731.

[Avi Siegal @AviSiegal]

Cause for optimism! Pair with this great new piece by @BellinJ https://t.co/LrqPeUBOiV

[Tim Wu @superwuster]

If you teach law students, seems worth taking a look at the list of free or inexpensive casebooks before assigning the $300+ books -- here's a list

Seems like a big deal ....

The W&M Bill of Rights Journal has published the contributions to the Constitutional Law Casebooks Symposium. Lots of interesting stuff here - and thanks again to the editors for letting me crash the symposium to talk about casebook costs. https://t.co/6cQavKdqeY

Great to host Carissa Hessick at @vanderbiltlaw yesterday where she presented her fascinating new paper, "Facts, Policy and Discretion" - thanks @CBHessick!

[Jeffrey Bellin @BellinJ]

@HoffProf The long-term incentives is an important piece and part of why I wrote this essay about casebook costs: https://t.co/Fr8inpuMLD
