No industry product should be titled with a jurisdictional designation (e.g., “Maryland Edition”; or “Montana Real Estate Law”) unless the contents of said industry product are designed primarily for and contain significant amounts of material for use in that jurisdiction. Nor should an industry product have a title which expresses or implies that a broader or more general jurisdiction is covered when in fact the industry product is designed primarily for a jurisdiction more limited in scope (e.g., “The New Rules of Evidence” is actually a work which applies to new evidence rules enacted in one State only).
