Civil Procedure and Practice is a straightforward yet comprehensive resource offering guidance on the many diverse forms of civil procedure in Scotland, from low value claims to the Court of Session Rules, and examining the basic principles behind the Rules and their practical application

Since the previous edition in 2014 there have been many changes in court rules, procedure and practice. This fully revised edition incorporates these changes with an updated chapter structure, case references and footnotes, including many recent examples of cases illustrating the application of the procedural rules.

Contents include:

  • The new structure of the Scottish civil justice system
  • The new jurisdiction and competence of its courts
  • The new Simple Procedure
  • The new Sheriff Appeal Court and its rules
  • The new All Scotland Sheriff Personal Injury Court
  • Recent changes in existing procedures
  • Updated authorities on the existing rules and procedures

The text also discusses the impact of the Scottish Civil Justice Council and Courts Reform (Scotland) Act 2014 on the court structure and rules

Expert author Charles Hennesey provides a simple explanation of the current procedures and practices, guiding the reader through the law as it stands and exphasising the practical application of the procedural rules

The book is an ideal introduction for law students, a reference guide for recently qualified solicitors, and an essential updating tool for seasoned civil practitioners
