Summary:

"Judging in any court system ultimately requires a final decision determining who wins a lawsuit. But in addition to that final decision, judges make many subsidiary decisions before issuing the final opinion. This book describes these decisions made by federal judges at all three levels of the federal court system: district courts, courts of appeals, and the Supreme Court. To complete an account of the task of judging, this book also describes a few decisions judges make after issuing a final opinion and a few decisions they make in their administrative roles and in electing to serve briefly on other courts in the federal judicial system."-- Page 4 of cover.
