Welcome back to the Bar Exam Toolbox podcast! Today in our “Listen and Learn” series, we’re dealing with another topic from civil procedure. In particular, we discuss two of the five types of joinder — permissive and required joinder.
In this episode we discuss:
- A review of subject matter jurisdiction
- The five types of joinder
- When does someone have permission to become a party to a lawsuit?
- When is someone required to be added to a lawsuit?
- Analyzing hypos involving permissive and required joinder
- What happens if joinder is necessary but not feasible?
