Details

Whether you’re practising in the High Court or County Court, you will need The Green Book. It is the essential guide to bringing, defending and appealing civil proceedings. It provides focused, authoritative and comprehensive coverage of the CPR from experts including judges, masters and leading practitioners and it is fully cross–referenced to Butterworths Civil Court Precedents.

The Green Book is known for its clear, comprehensive and pertinent explanation of the Rules, the cases and their application. This detailed coverage is unrivalled by other texts on civil procedure and places The Green Book firmly at the top of the litigation tree.

All the information you could need is contained in two main volumes with nothing archived. Available in four formats – book, CD–ROM, eBook and online as part of the Civil Procedure menu, The Green Book can be with you wherever and whenever. The 2015 edition includes all of the most recent updates to the CPR, including the Civil Procedure (Amendment) Rules 2014 and the Civil Procedure (Amendment No 2) Rules 2014.

Volume One examines procedure in the civil courts and contains the Civil Procedure Rules 1998, the RSC, CCR and Protocols. This volume is reissued in October as part of the annual subscription.

Volume Two covers general and more specific jurisdiction of the civil courts, including Companies, Personal Injury, Contempt of Court and Mental Capacity and Mental Health.

Essential commentary and explanatory notes are included throughout, written by an expert editorial board, including Lord Justices of Appeal, QBD and Chancery Masters, District Judges and leading practitioners

A separate forms supplement sets out all available forms listed in CPR PD 4, together with additional useful forms. A second supplement contains the Procedural Tables, the fees and up–to–date court guides for easy desktop reference. The Procedural Tables assist in complicated or lengthy procedures which have to be completed quickly, minimising the risk of error. A CD–ROM provides the full text of both main volumes and both supplements, as well as the complete set of fillable and downloadable forms.

Updating supplements and a regular newsletter – the Civil Court News – containing case summaries and articles are provided throughout the year as part of the subscription price.
