Interlocutory Applications: Cause Papers & Procedures

One of the greatest challenges about civil litigation in Malaysia is to understand the complexities of the numerous interlocutory applications that parties may apply pursuant to their respective needs. A common confusion among students and young practitioners is mainly centered around two factors, namely which application is to be used in which situation, and how the relevant cause papers should be prepared. This book aims at providing aid in these two aspects, by discussing the most common interlocutory applications, but in a more hands-on and practical approach. In between explanations, samples of cause papers are shared, together with excerpts that illustrate their effective drafting. Combining both the theories of civil procedure and the practical skills of drafting in litigation, this book endeavors to be a handy companion for students and young legal practitioners all over Malaysia
