The Civil Procedure (Amendment) Rules 2000
The Civil Procedure Rules 1998, which provided a new code of procedure for the civil courts, re-enacted with minor amendments a number of provisions of the Rules of the Supreme Court 1965 and the County Court Rules 1981. This statutory instrument replaces some of the most frequently used provisions of the earlier rules with rules to form an integral part of the new code. There are new provisions on service out of the jurisdiction (Schedule 1); representative parties (Schedule 2); security for costs (Schedule 3); sale of land and conveyancing counsel (Schedule 4); and appeals (Schedule 5).
