How about zombies? Do they address zombies?

A Legal Manual for an Apocalyptic New York
Quarantines. The closing of businesses. Mass evacuations, warrantless searches of homes. The slaughter of infected animals and the seizing of property. When laws can be suspended and whether infectious people can be isolated against their will or subjected to mandatory treatment. It is all there, in dry legalese, in the manual, published by the state court system and the state bar association.

The link goes to the .pdf of the manual. I couldn't get it to load, most likely due to the traffic from it being profiled. Excerpts can also be found at: The New York Times' website.

Thanks to Sarah Glassmeyer for the link.
