Private International Law in Common Law Canada: Cases, Text and Materials, 4th Edition

Stephen G.A. Pitel, Joost Blom, Elizabeth Edinger, Geneviève Saumier, Janet Walker, Catherine Walsh
Low Stock

Private International Law in Common Law Canada: Cases, Text and Materials, 4th Edition examines the three keys in multi-jurisdictional litigation: taking jurisdiction over a dispute, recognizing and enforcing judgment of a foreign court, and identifying the law to be applied in resolving a dispute.

The fourth edition also investigates the historical and theoretical underpinnings of private international law, exploring its constitutional implications and its intersections with public policy. The three key issues are explored in the areas of torts, contracts, and unjust enrichment, as well as in property law and succession, and family law.

This current and comprehensive casebook is created by a team of well-respected and prominent Canadian scholars, and continues to be the only casebook of its kind to examine all traditional conflict-of-law issues.
