    This casebook is unique in its highly practical approach to teaching Administrative Law. It employs a “simulation” involving the creation of a new agency, the fictitious Wine Trade Commission. Students follow two central characters, both newly minted lawyers (one in the agency, one representing the regulated industry), through the implementation of a new regulatory program. Students grapple with internal agency organization and management, the politics (both internal and external) of agency decisionmaking, and the traditional analysis of statutes and judicial opinions. The need to make decisions and present arguments about very real problems facilitates understanding of the complex and abstract principles of Administrative Law.

    Conceptually, the casebook is organized around two basic themes: understanding the law regulating internal administrative decisionmaking and understanding judicial monitoring of administrative action. Intertwined with these broad themes are some other crucial concepts such as the limitations on empowerment (e.g., separation of powers, which is covered as it relates to judicial challenges) or political controls (e.g., legislative oversight, which is covered as it relates to rulemaking and the limits on influence). The choice of concentration is driven by the realities of administrative practice: administrative lawyers spend most of their time trying to affect agency decisions or in court challenging administrative action. While administrative law encompasses other significant types of issues, the training of administrative lawyers must focus on these two areas.

    The accompanying Teacher’s Manual explains the authors’ conception of the materials and offers a detailed analysis of the problems as well as the various questions raised in the notes.

    Professors and adjunct professors may request complimentary examination copies of LexisNexis law school publications to consider for class adoption or recommendation.
