Zuckerman on Civil Procedure presents a clear and thematic analysis of litigation under the Civil Procedure Rules. It explains how the court interprets and applies the Rules, how judges exercise their extensive case management powers and how this impacts on the conduct of litigation.

Throughout, the emphasis is placed on bringing out the principles that govern the exercise of judicial discretion in order to help judges and practitioners deal with difficult problems that arise in the course of litigation.

  • Helps practitioners understand the relationship between individual Rules and general principles
  • Complements The White Book and other civil procedure manuals
  • Explains the significance of leading cases and provides critical commentary
  • Highlights current trends in judicial thinking
  • Draws attention to inconsistencies in judicial approach to process and to problems that are likely to be encountered in practice
  • Suggests solutions to debatable questions in areas such as service, legal professional privilege, self-incrimination, European Convention on Human Rights, compliance with time limits, and costs
  • Comments on recent developments, such as anonymity of legal proceedings, super injunctions, closed material proceedings and fraudulent litigants
  • Supplies authoritative analysis – the previous editions have been cited in court
