Reforming Civil Procedure in Victoria

Two Steps Forward and One Step Back?

  • David Bailey Victorian Bar

Abstract

It is just a few months since the Civil Procedure Act 2010 came into force on 1 January 2011. It is the only Act of Parliament in Victoria devoted entirely to civil procedure. Its opening section makes a bold clarion call seeking to reform and modernise procedures and processes relating to the resolution of civil proceedings.
