Justice and Efficiency in Mega-Litigation explores the phenomenon
of extremely long-running, resource-intensive civil litigation
known as 'mega-litigation'. Such litigation challenges the courts
to reconcile the objectives of justice and efficiency - for the
parties to the case and for the community. Drawing on interviews
with judges of the courts of England and Wales, and of Australia,
this book shows how judges have responded to these challenges. It
situates mega-litigation within broader developments in civil
procedure and case management, as well as theoretical debates about
the role of courts and the purpose of civil procedure. The book
highlights the importance of intensive, creative and flexible case
management; focus on the issues in dispute; and, ultimately, each
judge's expert intuition.
Government Accountability: Australian Administrative Law presents a
thorough account of the administrative state and the mechanisms
that exist to bring it to account for its actions. It
contextualises the theory and explanation of administrative law
through carefully chosen case studies and events that offer
practical examples of the principles discussed and how they are
applied. The third edition has been thoroughly updated to
incorporate recent legal developments and includes expanded
discussion of 'materiality' in the context of jurisdictional error.
The examples used illustrate the operation of legal principles and
reflect contemporary social and political circumstances. Written by
a team of experts, and known for its clear, consistent and
straightforward narrative with logical progression, Government
Accountability remains a student-friendly guide to complex
administrative law concepts. Government Accountability: Australian
Administrative Law is accompanied by a casebook, Government
Accountability Sources and Materials: Australian Administrative
Law, which provides curated cases and primary legal materials with
helpful commentary.
