Encyclopedia of International Commercial Litigation - 1993 Supplement Service (Loose-leaf)

The rapid increase in transnational commercial litigation in recent years has increased the need for lawyers to understand the workings of courts in other countries. This text provides an overview of commercial litigation procedure and those who judge and conduct it in the courts of major commercial countries throughout the world. Those covered in the "Basic Work" include Argentina, Belgium, Brazil, Canada, China (PRC), Egypt, England and Wales, France, Germany, Greece, India, Italy, Japan, Korea, Kuwait, Netherlands, Spain, Switzerland and the USA. Supplements in the course of 1993 will update current material and introduce several new sections, including East European, Far Eastern and South American jurisdictions. Each section gives a general account of the structure of the courts and their jurisdiction and of civil litigation procedures in each country concerned, as well as the local legal profession, its specialist areas and how it charges, and the local judiciary.
