Professor Pedro studies the ways in which racial subordination and subordination of other marginalized groups is embedded in civil procedure, remedies, and federal courts. She attempts to identify the marginalizing effects of seemingly technocratic or neutral rules, mechanisms, and doctrines in order to work against inequality that is embedded in the structure of the U.S. legal system.

Her published works are available here.  Her co-edited book volume, A Guide to Civil Procedure: Integrating Critical Legal Perspectives, will be a resource of critical legal perspectives about civil procedure that focus on issues such as race, sex, gender identity and expression, disability, class, immigration status, and sexual orientation. The book is available at NYU Press and elsewhere online.

Her primary research and teaching interests include civil procedure, remedies, critical race theory, evidence, and professional responsibility.

Descriptions of past and current work are included on my CV.
