Die Entwicklung des Zivilprozessrechts von Québec

'The development of Civil Procedure Law in Québec': The study traces the development of civil procedure law in the Canadian province of Québec from the French and English colonial periods to the present day, and examines the extent to which elements of civil law and common law have been interwoven over the centuries - and continue to be so today - in what is now referred to as a hybrid legal system. The focus is on the role of the judge and his relationship with the parties, particularly in the context of the taking of evidence.
