In addition to general updates for each topic which enable readers to keep abreast of the latest developments in procedural laws in civil litigation, this title has substantially revised the part on legal professional privilege to discuss the recent judicial development both in Hong Kong and other common law jurisdictions and the unsettled areas in this regard. It also raises an interesting and important discussion as to whether “legal advice privilege” and “litigation privilege” should be treated as two “distinct conceptual animals” instead of “two branches of the same tree”, as explained by the Canadian Supreme Court in Blank v Canada (Minister for Justice) [2006] 2 SCR 319. How that may affect the scope and application of the two heads of privileges in Hong Kong remains to be seen.

It is quite startling just how many judgments involving points of civil procedure are coming from the courts and just to keep abreast of developments is almost a
full-time occupation for practitioners and judges alike. And for students to master the rules is a considerable challenge. We hope that this text will go some way to alleviating their respective tasks.
