Barzam WTF III
A suit commences in state X by service of process but in state Y by filing a process with the court clerk and under FRCP by filing a complaint with the court. FRCP doesn't allow for interlocutory appeals, nor does state X, but state Y does a matter of right. FRCP is notice pleading, state X is fact pleading, and I've already forgotten what it is in state Y.
I have no idea how I am going to keep all this straight.
Edited to add: Oh? Didn't I mention I am taking *two* bar exams?

Oh dear. I'm starting civ pro on Friday. This terrifies me.
Wait...are you taking TWO bar exams??
Yes. I am taking two bar exams. Because I am a masochist.
WHAT? TWO bar exams? WHY?!?! I am totally never leaving my state.
seriously? Two?! Both in July?
wow, tip of the hat AND a wag of the finger to you!
Don't worry. It stays just as complicated in actual practice. I live in a fact pleading state but the subset of law I actually engage in uses notice pleading. Try explaining that to the new group of summer clerks as they attempt to figure out how much detail to put in a complaint.
