Patricia W. Moore is a Professor at St. Mary's University School of Law with a distinguished career in civil procedure and empirical legal studies. Her scholarship focuses on the practical implementation of procedural rules, particularly examining how federal rule changes actually function in courtrooms across the country. Professor Moore's research interests center on civil procedure, with special expertise in discovery rules, pleading standards, and class actions. Her work employs empirical methods to analyze court data, moving beyond theoretical debates to examine what actually happens in litigation. She has published extensively on the impact of the 2015 proportionality amendments to the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, the effects of Twombly and Iqbal on pleading standards, and empirical analyses of class action practices. Her scholarship consistently bridges the gap between rulemakers' intentions and judicial implementation, revealing how local practices and judicial preferences shape procedural outcomes. Her publication record shows a consistent focus on empirical analysis of procedural rules, with recent work (2024) examining whether the much-publicized 2015 proportionality amendments to Rule 26 have actually changed judicial behavior regarding discovery disputes. Her research demonstrates that while these amendments were heralded as 'a big deal' by Chief Justice Roberts, their practical impact may be less dramatic than initially claimed, with judges continuing to analyze discovery motions much as before, often influenced by local rules and individual judicial preferences. Professor Moore's scholarly contributions include: Analysis of the real-world impact of the 2015 proportionality amendments to Federal Rules of Civil Procedure Empirical studies of how Twombly and Iqbal have affected motion to dismiss practices Research on class action practices and challenges to 'myths' about state court class action abuses Work on gender differences in legal ethics and attorney discipline Studies of federal court caseloads and civil litigation trends Her approach consistently emphasizes empirical evidence over theoretical speculation, providing valuable data for practitioners, judges, and rulemakers alike. Professor Moore's scholarship represents an important corrective to purely theoretical debates about procedural reform, grounding discussions in actual judicial behavior and litigation outcomes.
