Dude, all of this is wrong. I am actually almost certain you're fucking with me. Statutory law is law written into statute. Common Law is law found in precedent from prior decisions; look up stare decisis and precedent.

Equity and admiralty are not jurisdictions, they're types of law. Also, there are more than those. The constitution grants federal courts jurisdiction for certain types of cases, amdiralty being one of them.

Your read up and understanding of Erie is off as well. Erie essentially says that diversity cases(a type of jurisdiction under the constitution) does not allow federal courts to make common law. Rather, they have to use one of the states from the diversity plaintiffs.

Read this and get back to me.

It’s been along time since I was in law school, but this series allowed me to book several classes, one of which I learned nothing from the professor and all from this book. Seriously good study companion. https://www.amazon.com/Civil-Procedure-6th-Examples-Explanations/dp/0735570337/ref=asc_df_0735570337/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=266180140297&hvpos=1o2&hvnetw=g&hvrand=11575953741332550370&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=200534&hvtargid=pla-804780658992&psc=1

It’s particularly helpful because it has little worksheets at the end of each chapter that allows you to apply the lessons of each chapter, unlike most treatises that just summarize it for you. It’s a practical guide, and it helps immensely with understanding the concepts and being able to apply it to different backgrounds.
