This book contains over 60 legal topics, more than 500 legal terms with definitions, a real 42 U.S.C. §1983 complaint and actual motions addressing pre-trial discovery and trial events. If you or someone you know is litigating or planning a Section 1983 civil rights action, this is the book to have as a guide.
Legal citation books
Each of our books would commonly be referred to as a legal citation book. These books are amazingly simple to use. If a criminal defendant is preparing a post conviction petition, and the argument is presenting an ineffective assistance of counsel claim, the user simply turns to the topical section titled, Ineffective Assistance of Counsel. Once in this section, the reader will find numerous cases describing various instances, examples and legal standards regarding ineffective counsel.
Another feature is that main topical sections may also contain subsections. For example, in the Ineffective Assistance of Counsel area, there are subsections which individually identify case references to address either appellate or post-conviction counsel’s ineffectiveness.
Both books, The Colossal Book of Criminal Citations and The Colossal Book of Civil Citations, are designed for quick and easy reference. These titles are simply the best legal citation books on the market today.
Legal research books
Our legal research books are continuously being updated using recent case citations and accepting reader input. The Colossal Book of Criminal Citations was our first product and is currently published in its Sixth Edition. Almost immediately after this book was released, our customers began asking for a companion book to address Section 1983 Civil Rights claims. So, we began working and introduced, The Colossal Book of Civil Citations. This book is currently published in its Second Edition.
Legal writing books
At Barkan Research, we want our customers to have a complete resource when they buy our books. Both The Colossal Book of Criminal Citations and The Colossal Book of Civil Citations contain sample motions and briefs. Our readers not only acquire the legal case references to support their claim, they also get real case motions and briefs as examples after which to pattern their legal writing from.
In both of our books, there are motion samples to reference for creating both pre-trial and post-trial filings. Within The Colossal Book of Criminal Citations, the reader will find motions which address areas such as limiting prejudicial terminology during trial to requesting a Certificate of Appealability from a Federal Court of Appeals during post-conviction habeas proceedings. Within The Colossal Book of Civil Citations, the reader will find real motions covering interrogatories and discovery requests. There are real pre-trial motions which seek to limit prejudicial testimony and request that a prisoner be permitted to wear street clothing, as opposed to jail garb, during trial.
With our books, there isn’t a need to buy additional resources to determine how to present an issue in court. We make it easy to conduct research and write motions and briefs in both of our books.

At Barkan Research we are our own legal bookstore. You won’t find our books sold anywhere else. We research, design and ship all our books. Every package leaving our shipping department has an individual tracking number ensuring your purchase is followed throughout the delivery process.
Being the sole distributer of our books, we eliminate any unnecessary cost for our customers. More importantly, a majority of our books are shipped to jails and prisons throughout the United States.
