The author is a proud recipient of a 2003 ALWD Summer Scholarship for this article abstract and thanks the scholarship committee for the opportunity. I also thank the people who helped me tackle the interdisciplinary and legal research: Professor Susan A.

Thanks are also due to my mentor, Michael R. Smith, Professor, Mercer School of Law; and to Mary Beth Beazley, Professor, Ohio State U. College of Law; M. H.

Latham, Rutgers School of Law–Camden; Angela (Passelacqua) Baker, Rutgers School of Law–Camden; Randy Abate, Rutgers School of Law–Camden; Dino Capasso, Esquire; and Gary L. Maher, Esquire. I could not have completed this work without the emotional and professional encouragement of the legal writing and the clinical faculty at Rutgers School of Law–Camden or of my husband Steve Robbins, who all patiently listened to me grumble for two years about the problems with all caps and Courier font. This article is dedicated to the New Jersey Civil Practice Committee, whose steadfast determination to adhere to their antiquated Rule 2:6-10 prompted this research and subsequent article.
