Estoppel is understood at a basic level by many lawyers, but this set of legal doctrines is highly complex and filled with such confusing terminology, such that it poses a challenge for both practitioners and scholars alike.

This is the first Canadian text book that clarifies the subject matter from a Canadian legal standpoint and deals with its complexity and subtleties in a manner that's easily understood. Written by a veteran University of British Columbia law professor, this civil litigation book pulls together various aspects of estoppel into one place, saving readers valuable research time, while educating them on the rules and principles of estoppel in a clear and organized manner.

Features:-

Contains useful reference charts to clarify terminological issues, and to categorize the five areas of estoppel:-

  • Estoppel by deed
  • Estoppel by convention
  • Estoppel by representation
  • Promissory estoppel
  • Proprietary estoppel
What’s New in this Edition?:-

  • Significant discussion of the 2017 Supreme Court of Canada decision in Cowper-Smith v. Morgan that has clarified various matters to do with proprietary estoppel, including its pre-requisites, its effect and its ability to comprehend future property.
  • Expanded coverage of various matters including: the meaning of a “cause of action”, the role and meaning of “equity”, the availability of estoppel to third parties, the nature of a “duty” to correct errors, the role and responsibility of agents when there are inaccuracies, the effect of entire contract clauses and the construction of contracts.
  • The book also expands the treatment of the availability of estoppel in statutory and governmental contexts and how and when there can be appeals of estoppel decisions.
  • Where there have been significant developments in English and Quebec law, those developments are also included.
