Civil Procedure in Hong Kong: A Guide to the Main Principles, Fourth Edition, a popular text with practitioners, has developed a reputation as being a user-friendly, simply written guide to the main principles of civil procedure.

The new edition covers important changes in relevant areas, including the recent abolition of the “as of right” route of appeal to the CFA. A few years have passed since the coming into effect of the Civil Justice Reform (CJR). The text elaborates on various points where it would be helpful for practitioners to have more of an explanation and/or a flavour of the Court’s general approach now.
