ELI – Unidroit Model European Rules of Civil Procedure published by Oxford University Press

23 September 2021

Dr John Sorabji is a leading contributor to the volume, which was developed as part of a cooperative project of the European Law Institute (ELI) and the International Institute for the Unification of Private Law (UNIDROIT), dealing with civil procedure law.

John Sorabji

is edited by the European Law Institute and UNIDROIT, with Dr John Sorabji (Lecturer at Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê Laws) as a leading contributor.

The long-term project ran from February 2014 to February 2020 and concluded in an ELI-UNIDROIT Instrument. This volume consists of the ELI-UNIDROIT Instrument on the European Rules of Civil Procedure, which features Rules and accompanying comments. It considers the diverse traditions in Europe concerning civil procedure law and aims to find a common thread in them.

The book has already influenced procedural reform in some European countries, and has been said to be a reference point for European civil procedure for the ‘coming decades’ at an ELI webinar hosted in July 2021. The webinar on ‘Future of Civil Procedural Law – ELI-UNIDROIT Model European Rules of Civil Procedure and Their Impact’ featured Dr Sorabji as a speaker and reflected on the impact the Model Rules have had and might have in the field.
