Description:

Description of last year's 2009 edition:

Federal Courts Practice 2009 continues the tradition of providing advice on a complete range of judicial review, trial and appellate proceedings and incorporates recent developments brought about by the Public Servants Disclosure Protection Act, and amendments by the Rules Amending the Federal Court Immigration and Refugee Protection Rules. The 2009 edition features almost 300 new case digests.

This edition also includes:
  • Full text of the Federal Court Act and Rules, as amended
  • Introductory chapter explaining the Courts’ jurisdiction
  • Digests of decisions, which interpret and apply the Federal Court Immigration and Refugee Protection Regulations
  • Explanatory notes on the recently amended provisions of the Canada Evidence Act dealing with the disclosure of government information
  • Digests of all the significant decisions that interpret or apply the Act and Rules
  • Practice directions issued by the Court
  • Unmatched, detailed, section-by-section commentary
  • Cross-references to other potentially relevant provisions
  • Index.
New in the 2009 edition:
  • Amendments:
    • Case Management Rules: The new case management rules are intended to streamline the status review and case management process and to align the rules with the practices of the Federal Court of Appeal and the Federal Court.
    • The Class Proceedings Rules (rules 334.1 – 334.4), which are contained in a new Part 5.1. The new Part 5.1 extends the coverage to include applications for judicial review, other than applications under section 28 of the Federal Courts Act. These amendments reinstated the representative proceedings rule and changed the class action rules to class proceedings rules.
  • Practice Directions
    • Books of authorities and tables of content
    • The order in which names are to be set out in originating documents for proceedings under the Patented Medicines (Notice of Compliance) Regulations
