"The Hong Kong White Book is the standard point of reference for the rules of civil procedure in this jurisdiction and, as such, an indispensable tool for the well-prepared litigator." - The Hon. Mr Justice Joseph Fok P.J. (Editor-in-Chief)

“Using the White Book could easily save firms HK$20,000 a day” - Martin Rogers (General Editor)

Endorsed by the Hong Kong Judiciary, Hong Kong Civil Procedure 2023 (The White Book) is the definitive reference manual on the rules of civil procedure and practice in Hong Kong.

The commentary to each Order of the Rules of the High Court, as well as to the Arbitration Ordinance, Mediation Ordinance and specialist Ordinances on legal practice, have been carefully reviewed and annotated by the talented pool of 95 specialist practitioners.

The Hong Kong White Book 2023 is now published in five handy volumes (Volumes 1, 2, 3, Court Forms and Tables and Index).
Highlights include:

Volume 1 (Parts A)
- Updates on new cases, such as Kwok Cheuk Kin & Anor v Director of Lands & Ors [2021] HKCA 915, in which the Court of Appeal gave a decision on costs in respect of the public interest litigation exception
Volume 2 (Parts B–T)
- Inclusion of the Small Claims Tribunal (General) Rules (Cap 338A) and the Small Claims Tribunal (Forms) Rules (Cap 338C)
Volume 3 – Arbitration and ADR (Parts U–V)
- Extensively revised annotations to the Mediation Ordinance and various Practice Directions
