source of federal authority and the limits to its application, focusing on
federal questions and diversity. Jurisdictional problems and
jurisdictional amount are discussed, as well as admiralty, sovereign
immunity, abstention, injunctions against suit, and civil rights removal.

applicable in federal courts.
