Summary:
"Viewed through the prism of civil litigators in the United States seeking evidence in foreign jurisdictions, the first chapter of this book considers the procedures for obtaining evidence in the United States through the Federal Rules of Civil and the Hague Evidence Convention. The book then describes, in successive chapters organized by jurisdiction, the laws that enable foreign litigants to obtain evidence in the respective countries. Each chapter discusses the controlling law on foreign discovery, including the type of evidence obtainable, confidentiality and privilege, alternative dispute resolution, and costs"-- Provided by publisher.
