Course description:

In this course we will discuss approaches taken in different jurisdictions towards key problems of civil litigation. In particular, we will look at the following topics:

• Court organisation
• Costs and funding of civil litigation
• Amicable settlement within and outside ordinary proceedings
• Jurisdiction
• Collective redress
• Insolvency proceedings
• Evidence
• Appeals
• Arbitration and the courts

As this is a workshop-style course, attendance in class and participation in the discussions is obligatory and will count towards your grade. In addition, students are expected to give a presentation on one of the topics of the course. Furthermore, there will be an oral exam.
