Legal time limits

by P. Chainey

Summary

A comprehensive guide to those time limits most commonly encountered by the busy practitioner. At a glance it provides immediate access to the time limits imposed either by rules of court or statute.;It is all too easy for things to go wrong in all sorts of action if the appropriate time limits are not adhered to and mistakes can be potentially costly. The author contends that there is no doubt that the Civil Justice Review is having and will continue to have a considerable impact upon the Rules of Court, which prescribe when steps must be taken in a contentious action. For the criminal practitioner, time limts are not so multifarious and are more commonly encountred in relation to appeals and road traffic offences. The book contains a useful set of standard letters and draft orders.;The author is a Fellow of the Institute of Legal Executives and Senior Civil Litigation.
