offers a clear and topical explanation of how the English legal system operates. The book explains the organization and procedures of courts and tribunals, the trial process and jury system, major forms of redress in private and public law, and discusses the way judges make and determine the law. Throughout, examples are drawn from a wide range of cases to help
students develop a rounded understanding of the subject.

have been included, as have important pronouncements by the House of Lords. The English Legal Process
