(The West Virginia magistrate court system was created und...)
The West Virginia magistrate court system was created under the authority of Article VIII, § 10 of the Judicial Reorganization Amendment of 1974. The West Virginia Supreme Court of Appeals has held that [t]he constitutionally created office of magistrate is an independent judicial office and the exercise of the power of the office is subject only to the constitution and the law. State ex rel. Skinner v. Dostert, 166 W.Va. 743, 278 S.E.2d 624 (1981). With respect to the civil jurisdiction of magistrate courts, procedural laws in the form of Supreme Court rules and legislative statutes have been created. The Rules of Civil Procedure for the Magistrate Courts of West Virginia were promulgated by the Supreme Court on June 22, 1988. This Handbook provides guidance on how those rules should be applied. In addition, this Handbook provides guidance on how to apply legislative procedural statutes that are applicable to magistrate courts. It must be emphasized that this Handbook is only a reference tool, it does not purport to be the law. The magistrate court system replaced the justice of the peace courts, pursuant to Article VIII, § 15 of the state constitution, on January 1, 1977. During the long period in which the justice of the peace court system was in place, a rich body of case law was created. Whenever possible this Handbook references to case law decided for justice of the peace courts, as illustrative on how specific issues should be handled by magistrates. In addition, the Handbook provides case law guidance on issues decided under the rules of civil procedure for circuit courts. This Handbook is intended to be user-friendly. In doing so, the material in this Handbook has been arranged under each Rule that is set out in the Rules of Civil Procedure for the Magistrate Courts. To the extent that the Handbook covers procedural matters only found in statutes and other administrative rules promulgated by the Supreme Court, such matters have been set out near closely related Rules.

(The Second Edition of this Handbook is intended to provid...)
The Second Edition of this Handbook is intended to provide a meaningful and thorough starting point for researching the West Virginia Rules of Civil Procedure. This Handbook does not embody an exhaustive treatment of case law interpretations of the rules of civil procedure. It does, however, represent an invaluable tool for the bench and bar in obtaining a fundamental understanding of the application of the rules of civil procedure. Several substantive matters regarding this Handbook require noting. First, the material in this Handbook has been organized so as to correspond with actual rule citations. For example, § 12(b)(6) of the Handbook corresponds with Rule 12(b)(6) of the rules of civil procedure. Therefore, if a practitioner knows the particular rule citation under consideration, he or she need only find the corresponding section citation in this Handbook for a discussion of the particular rule. Next, although the First Edition of this Handbook did not cite to any per curiam opinions issued by the state Supreme Court, this Second Edition does. This substantive change reflects our belief that the Supreme Court is now fully committed embracing per curiam opinions as persuasive authority to be cited before that Court, as well as trial courts. Finally, this Handbook provides federal case law construing the federal rules of civil procedure. As the practitioner knows, West Virginia’s rules of civil procedure are patterned after the federal rules. With this knowledge in mind, the Handbook offers as persuasive authority federal decisions construing the federal rules. As a practical matter, the Handbook limits its use of federal case law to areas that the state Supreme Court has not issued controlling opinions upon.

In the last few years, researchers around the world have increasingly reported the importance of acid-alkaline balance. The Acid-Alkaline Food Guide was designed as an easy-to-follow guide to the most common foods that influence your body’s pH level. Now in its Second Edition, this bestseller has been expanded to include many more domestic and international foods. Updated information also explores (and refutes) the myths about pH balance and diet, and guides the reader to supplements that can help the body achieve a healthy pH level. The Acid-Alkaline Food Guide begins by explaining how the acid-alkaline environment of the body is influenced by foods. It then presents a list of thousands of foods and their acid-alkaline effects. Included are not only single foods, such as fruits and vegetables, but also popular combination and even common fast foods. In each case, you’ll not only discover whether a food is acidifying or alkalizing, but also learn the degree to which that food affects the body. Informative insets guide you in choosing the food that’s right for you. The first book of its kind—now updated and expanded—The Acid-Alkaline Food Guidewill quickly become the resource you turn to at home, in restaurants, and whenever you want to select a food that can help you reach your health and dietary goals.
