Product description

Summary Judgment: A Practical Guide is a subscription based product including both the printed loose-leaf and LexisMobile publications.

Summary Judgment: A Practical Guide promotes uniformity of practice.

The work, whilst acknowledging the need for an unfettered judicial discretion, identifies patterns within the granting of summary judgment applications, thereby rationalising the subject matter and providing practical guidelines for the preparation, presentation, opposition to, and adjudication, of such applications.

This title attempts to reduce inconsistencies and to promote uniformity of practice. The publication is maintained in a single binder with updates published annually.

Available in print (looseleaf) and online format. Print includes updates for 12 months, thereafter updates are billed annually in advance.

Online format must be added to a base package. "Request a quote" and a sales agent will contact you.
