sented here. You are earnestly requested to raise any
further points which occur to you.
TENTATIVE DAF'r No. 1.
1. §§ 301 et seq. GExIIAL SCOPE.
Is the fundamental distinction properly brought
out between (1) personal judgments, and (2) judg-
ments affecting only interests in property (judgments
in rei aud quasi in rein) ?
Is the distinction properly brought out between
(1) the effect of a personal judgment on the same cause
of action (merger and bar), and (2) its effect on other
causes of action (collateral estoppel)?
2. § 309. JUDGMENT NOT FOR TIiE PAYMENT OF
MoY.
To what extent do the rules of res judicata apply
to judgments not for the payment of money, as for
example decrees for the specific performance of a
contract?
3. § 321. EFFECT OF FAILURE TO INTERPOSR COUN-
TERCLAIM.
If the same facts constitute a defense to the plain-
tiff's claim and a ground of counterclaim, and the de-
fendant pleads the facts as a defense and judgment is
given for him, is he precluded from maintaining an ac-
tion against the plaintiff? See Comment d.
