Available

Now in its ninth edition, Civil Litigation Process: Cases and Materials remains the leading casebook on civil procedure in Canada. This edition continues its track record of providing a thorough overview of civil litigation, helping law students, law clerks, and new practitioners navigate each stage of the process. The new edition is updated to reflect significant developments in case law and includes greater discussion about the current economic, social, and professional issues in civil litigation.

This edition is national in scope and features a new author, Catherine Piché, who provides insight on Quebec’s civil litigation process, including the new Code of Civil Procedure. This expanded edition also addresses issues affecting Indigenous peoples engaged in civil litigation, an important area of law not often explored in other casebooks.

Civil Litigation Process: Cases and Materials, 9th Edition provides an efficient and comprehensive look at the procedural aspects of civil litigation and is an essential read for law students, law clerks, and new practitioners.
