Bernard J. Ward, legal educator and authority on the federal courts, practiced general law
in New Orleans, 1949-1953, and taught in the law schools at Loyola University, 1952-1953, at
Notre Dame University, 1954-1968, and at the University of Texas at Austin, first as a
visiting professor from 1966-1968, and then as a full professor from 1969-1982. At Texas he
taught federal courts, remedies, Texas procedure, and a seminar on the Supreme Court. A
member of the American Law Institute, Ward spoke frequently at educational conferences for
the federal judiciary, and was highly regarded by both students and federal judges. He
drafted the Federal Rules of Appellate Procedure, which are used throughout the federal
courts, and was co-author of "Appeals to Court of Appeals," a well-known treatise. Ward
served as reporter to the Advisory Committee on Appellate Rules of the Judicial Conference
of the United States 1961-1968; the Standing Committee on Rules of Practice and Procedure of
the Judicial Conference, 1970-1971; and the Advisory Committee on Civil Rules, 1971-1978. He
was a member of the Standing Committee from 1978 until his death on May 7, 1982.
Return to the Table of Contents
Correspondence, printed material, minutes, memoranda, and literary productions document
Bernard J. Ward's activity in the legal profession, both as scholar and public servant. Ward
the public servant takes primacy over Ward the teacher, not only by the sheer preponderance
of material on his work on the federal rules committees, but also by the insight that
material provides about its creator as an esteemed legal authority. The papers bulk with
correspondence in the periods 1961-1969 and 1971-1978 when he served, respectively, as
reporter to the Advisory Committee on Appellate Rules of the Judicial Conference of the
United States and as reporter to the Advisory Committee on Civil Rules. The first series
documents the formation and membership of the Committee on Rules of Practice and Procedure
and its advisory committees. The four following series, beginning with Advisory Committee on
Appellate Rules, 1961-1969, are marshaled chronologically, to reflect Ward's successive
service on the various committees. The subseries on rules (e.g., Rule 23 under the series,
Advisory Committee on Civil Rules, 1971-1978) manifest the process by which those
rules--from their conception through various drafts and proposed changes--arrived at their
final form. The last two series relate to Ward's career as a law professor at Notre Dame,
1954-1958, and the University of Texas, 1966-1982, with correspondence that also documents
his service on the federal rules committees and his personal relationships with the federal
judiciary and other legal scholars.
