This chapter addresses the subject of litigation costs, looking at Part XII of the European Rules of Civil Procedure. The seven rules under Part XII are set at general level, due to the impact of national law and the structure of the legal profession in European jurisdictions upon this area of civil procedure in a technical sense. While some jurisdictions have created a system where the court fees almost fully cover the state's expenses for the civil court system, other jurisdictions have opted for a system that is basically free of charge for the parties. A further important difference across European jurisdictions that has a significant impact on litigation costs is the different approaches to fees payable in respect of legal representation in proceedings. Finally, the rules on court organisation are also relevant to litigation costs.

The Principle of Formal Truth in the Polish Civil Procedural Law and Non-monotonic ReasoningSummary This paper analyses the implementation of the formal truth principle in the Polish civil procedural code in the light of non-monotonic reasoning. The author starts by presenting the concept and applications of non-monotonic reasoning, and the formal truth principle and its place in Polish civil procedure. Next he examines the conditions in which non-monotonicity is admissible in civil court reasoning. While legal reasoning may generally be regarded as non-monotonic due to the assumptions it employs and treats as defensible, the author’s observations on the basis of selected civil law cases lead him to the conclusion that the use of the formal truth principle as a viable instrument in law simply forces courts to make non-monotonic inferences. In other words, adopting this principle means accepting non-monotonic reasoning, or even more: if the court keeps to the formal truth principle it is using one of the types of non-monotonic logic.

The current study seeks to better understand the challenges faced by immigrant applicants and respondents as they enter the civil court system for the purpose of obtaining protection orders. Structured observations of protection order hearings in a civil court are analyzed and include cases in which immigration-related issues were discussed. Through qualitative data analysis, three themes emerged. These include (1) threats of parental kidnapping and child abduction across country borders; (2) concerns over legal immigration documents; and (3) worries and/or threats of deportation. Findings suggest that battered immigrant victims have an acute vulnerability to experiencing multiple types of abuse. Implications for future research directions, policy recommendations, and strategies for improving the experiences of battered immigrants within the civil court system are also discussed.

This chapter follows the structure of the previous chapter. It gives a brief introduction to the Woolf Reform and the Civil Procedure Rules, which regulate the conduct of civil court proceedings and are based to a large extent on Lord Woolf’s recommendations. The chapter then briefly sets out the course of a lawsuit and presents the taking of evidence in civil litigation in the pre-action, the pre-trial, and the trial phase. Lastly and most importantly, the chapter explores legal professional privilege, which has two sub-heads under English law: legal advice privilege and litigation privilege.
