Description and Table of Contents

Description

This text is designed as a comprehensive guide to Chancery procedure for practitioners who wish to keep abreast of the developments in this area. It considers Chancery practice in various subject areas including charities, company law and insolvency. Previously available only in separate volumes, the book contains forms and orders which are not available as a collection elsewhere and should prove useful to the members of the Drafting Section of the Chancery Division who have the task of drawing up Court Orders. The worked examples are designed to bring the subject to life for practitioners to whom the Chancery Division was previously unclear. It aims to set out in as simplified form as possible all the intricacies of actually making application by summons or motion, setting down the cases and their listings. The book takes into account all new legislation such as the Copyright, Designs and Patents Act 1988. It also includes interlocutory procedures, how they are set up and their likely outcome. It is organized under subject headings with three appendices and an index.
