Civil case management: can lessons be learned from Wales and England?

Penny Darbyshire

Research output: Contribution to conference › Paper › peer-review

Abstract

This was an invited paper, delivered at training conferences for Scottish sheriffs, in January and April 2015, at the Scottish Judicial Institute in Edinburgh. The title speaks for itself. In 2015, the Scottish civil justice system was in transition, with a new set of Civil Procedure Rules yet to be drafted. This paper examines whether lessons can be learned from the Welsh and English Civil Procedure Rules, and their successes and failures, and from the author's published empirical research on the working lives of judges (2011) and judicial case management (2014).
