Items related to Blackstone's Civil Practice
Synopsis
Blackstone's Civil Practice provides authoritative expert description and analysis of the process of civil litigation in the county courts and in the High Court.
Blackstone's Civil Practice 2003 is up to date to 31 December 2002 and includes some rule changes which will come into force on 1 April 2003.
Chapters on costs and funding litigation have been rewritten to reflect the rapid developments in these important areas, and there is now a separate chapter on conditional fee agreements. Cases decided since the 2002 edition are fully covered.
Fifteen new Parts of the CPR and their supplementing practice directions are printed in the book and commented on. There is full coverage of new EU Regulations on insolvency, on jurisdiction and judgments, and on service. The 2003 edition also includes new or revised court guides for the Admiralty
and Commercial Courts, Chancery, the Patents Court, the Supreme Court Costs Office and the Technology and Construction Court.
Uniquely, Blackstone's Civil Practice sets out the law on civil procedure in 78 narrative chapters which follow the course of proceedings from pre-action protocols to enforcement of judgments. These chapters are backed up by clearly laid out appendices containing a scrupulously edited complete text
of the Civil Procedure Rules and Practice Directions, linked back to the commentary, as well as selected legislation relating to civil procedure and jurisdiction.
The treatment of the litigation process in general is followed by 20 chapters on important topics of civil law encountered particularly in the day-to-day work of the county courts: insolvency and companies; landlord and tenant and possession proceedings; harassment; sale of goods and consumer
credit. Chapter 99 discusses human rights and civil procedure. Chapter 100 is a reference summary of changes in terminology brought about by the Civil Procedure Rules.
All copies of Blackstone's Civil Practice 2002 come complete with a CD-ROM, which is issued simultaneously with the bound book. The CD-ROM includes hypertext linking for, among other things, references to the Civil Procedure Rules and Practice Directions. The CD-ROM also includes all relevant forms,
the majority of which can be completed on screen.
