About this title

Synopsis

The fourth edition of this volume features practical and up-to-date information and advice. New information includes changes in: interlocutory procedured; the use of Mareva injunctions; arbitration proceedings; and practice directions and statements of commercial judges. The book combines legal theory with practical detail which will answer most of the administrative questions the practitioner will need to ask, covering every major aspect of the Court's work, including: writs, originating summonses, motions and pleadings; interlocutory procedure; conduct of the trial; Mareva Injunctions; and arbitration proceedings. The chapters feature information on how things should be done, enhanced by the author's personal comments, hints and advice, drawn from his own experience, on how to do them effectively. In addition, three preliminary chapters set the scene by looking at the origins and development of the Commercial Court, explaining the function of the Commercial Court Committee, and discussing what makes a commercial case.

To complete this practical tool, the appendices set out up-to-date practice directions and statements, and reproduce the full official "Guide to Commercial Court Practice" and the rules of the "Supreme Court Order 72: Commercial Actions".
