Download or read book Cost and Fee Allocation in Civil Procedure written by Mathias Reimann and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-11-15 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The volume describes and analyzes how the costs of litigation in civil procedure are distributed in key countries around the world. It compares the various approaches, draws general conclusions from that comparison, and presents global trends as well as common problems and solutions. In particular, the book deals with three principal questions: First, who pays for civil litigation costs, i.e., to what extent do losers have to make winners whole? Second, how much money is at stake, i.e., how expensive is civil litigation in the respective jurisdictions? And third, whose money is ultimately spent, i.e., how are civil litigation costs distributed through mechanisms like legal aid, litigation insurance, collective actions, and success oriented fees? Inter alia, the study reveals a general trend towards deregulation of lawyer fees as well as a substantial correlation between the burden of litigation costs and membership of a jurisdiction in the civil and common law families. This study is the result of the XVIIIth World Congress of Comparative Law held under the auspices of the International Academy of Comparative Law.

Download or read book Civil Procedure 2006 Statutory and Case Supplement written by Thomas D. Rowe, Jr. and published by Foundation Press. This book was released on 2006-08-03 with total page 388 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the 2006 Statutory and Case Supplement pertaining to Rowe, Sherry and Tidmarsh's Civil Procedure. Professors choosing a Civil Procedure book have always faced difficult dilemmas. The ?breadth vs. depth? trade-off is particularly acute in this field, and the matter is complicated by the fact that Civil Procedure might be allocated as few as 3 or as many as 6 credits. This book aims to ease that dilemma by structuring the material so that it can be taught quickly but at a high level: the cases and notes are short but intellectually challenging. At an estimated 650 pages, most of the book can be covered in as few as 4 credit hours, but the materials are rich enough to expand discussion to 6 credit hours. For each individual topic, it is possible to use this book to cover the basics or to probe the issues in depth, depending on the time allocated. Coverage is comparable to most books currently on the market. The book also introduces students to the themes that run through Civil Procedure: efficiency and fairness, the advantages and disadvantages of the adversarial system, real-life litigation strategies, and issues of federalism and separation of powers inherent in the American judicial system. Each chapter begins by exploring these themes through excerpts from scholarship in the field, followed by notes and questions. These thematic materials can be used to structure discussion, but the remainder of each chapter? more traditional cases and notes'can also be taught independently should a professor choose not to assign the introductory section.
