I am looking for Sefarim/Books in English or Hebrew/English mix that deal with choshen mishpat cases or inyanim. There are a ton of basar v’chalav or hilchos Shabbos but I do not know of any choshen mishpat. The aleinu lishabeach series on the parsha has the idea but I am looking basically for a Shayla/tshuva sefer in English with sources and lomdish and involved discussion of the issues such as bar metzra or scheros etc. TYIA
