Rules 331–337 give the Court extensive powers for active case management. This includes communication with the parties to inform them of the requests and requirements of the Court (Rule 334(c)) or through Rule 334(j) the right to request the parties to provide clarification on certain points, answer specific questions, or produce evidence or lodge documents (Rule 103).

The author begins by outlining the history of rule 219 of the Alberta Rules of Court. Rule 219 deals with pre-trial conferences. She outlines some shortcomings of the old rule, and how the rule came under the scrutiny of the Civil Practice Steering Committee. She outlines the reform process which led to the current rule 219, and then goes on to assess whether the new rule has met its goals of settling actions and managing actions to the point of trial. Finding that the settlement of actions has not been much changed by the new rule, she offers ideas for improving the current scheme. In terms of case management, there is hope in the new rule for practitioners who make creative use of it. In conclusion, the author expresses a wish that the new Practice Note 7 will remedy the problems that still exist in regard to very long trials.

Even after 30 years of experience, two questions persist about case management practice. Who needs it and does it work? Answers to these questions are neither direct nor simple. This article examines the significance of various contexts (policy, system, community, and organization) to efforts attempting to provide responses to these basic questions. Beyond the question of who needs case management, two additional questions are addressed. Who needs it and who gets it? Clients’ qualitative perspectives on case management effectiveness, beyond attempts to measure satisfaction and quality of life, are usually absent. The article concludes with a discussion of whether these are the right questions.

AbstractBackgroundBased on the updated scientific evidence around SARS-CoV-2 diagnostic, health policymakers had to consider that many decisions could enhance or limit the success of the overall COVID-19 control strategy. The purpose of this study is to share alternative COVID-19 case management based on the updated international knowledge.MethodsThis study presents the main information about COVID-19 case management in Morocco from March to October 2020. The NVivo qualitative model content analysis was used to compare and prioritize health decisions with updated scientific evidence.ResultsThe lack of molecular diagnostic accuracy using the interpretation of cycles quantification values, was targeted only by allowing all private laboratories to do RT qPCR. However, there is an urgent need for standardisation with accurate molecular SARS-CoV-2 thermocyclers and kits that notify systematic cycles quantification and do more tests per days to control the spread effectively. A predictive tree of the cycle’s range is presented following three steps: 1) the initial clinical definition, 2) the molecular confirmation, 3) and the diagnostic follows up results of the RT qPCR up to 28 days after the onset. At the same time, the seasonal vaccination against influenza and pneumonia could help to reduce COVID-19 deaths.ConclusionsUntil an available SARS-CoV-2 specific vaccine and/or curative effective treatment, updated control strategy in Morocco and similar context countries require to target population living in highly COVID-19 epidemic cities or areas by mass testing with the right interpretation of PCR values changes, associated to seasonal vaccination to foster the immunity.

Traditionally, civil hearings take place in court buildings, with hearings being conducted in public in court rooms in front of a judge. Active case management in accordance with the overriding objective includes dealing with cases without the parties needing to attend court, and by making use of technology (CPR, r 1.4(2)(j) and (k)). There is provision in the CPR for holding hearings by telephone, by video, or by any other means which permits simultaneous communication (r 39.1(1)(a)), and for receiving evidence by telephone or by using any other method of direct oral communication (r 3.1(2)(d)). Increased public proficiency with information technology, combined with the emergency created by the coronavirus outbreak in 2020, have resulted in the courts embracing computer technology for remote hearings for civil proceedings.
