CALI is happy to announce the release of the updated versions of the Federal Rules of Evidence, Federal Rules of Civil Procedure and the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure via our eLangdell Press bookstore. These books are published in cooperation with and powered by the Legal Information Institute at Cornell Law School. The Legal Information Institute is a pioneer in the world of Free and Open Law. In continuation of that work, these books are absolutely free for anyone to download and use. All of the books contain the following features:


  • The complete rules as of December 1, 2014 (for the 2015 edition).
  • All notes of the Advisory Committee following each rule.
  • Internal links to rules referenced within the rules.
  • External links to the LII website's version of the US Code.

If you'd like to thank the LII for providing the material for these books, they gratefully accept donations to support their operations. No amount is too small.
