Acknowledgments

• Jurisdiction: United States

I am grateful to many who helped me in the creation of this book. First, my lovely wife, Nancy, who not only put up with me during the book's production but also read drafts, helped with edits and ideas, and encouraged me all along the way. Second, Brady, my oldest son and scholar, read multiple drafts, suggested revisions, and guided me in shaping the manuscript.

Some of the others who read drafts of the book and offered excellent advice were Christopher T. Bayley, Daniel T. Satterberg, Mark Larson, Andy Gordon, Stewart (Enzo) Riley, Marilyn Berger, James Warme, Jimmy Hung, Terry Carroll, and my co-authors of other books Marilyn J. Berger and John B. Mitchell, Seattle University School of Law Professors Emeriti.
