Description
Bloomsbury Publishing (UK) Direct Jurisdiction: Asian Perspectives by Edited by Anselmo Reyes Edited by Wilson Lui
This book explores situations in which the courts of 15 key Asian States are prepared to hear a case involving cross-border elements. For instance where parties are habitually resident abroad and a dispute has only some or no connection with an Asian state will the courts of that State accept jurisdiction and hear the case and if so on what conditions? This book looks into establishing jurisdiction in commercial matters as well as in family law and succession and analyses the difference of approach between civil and common law countries and the similarities and differences between the 15 states.
