Covering all of the substantive grounds on which a claim may be brought, this definitive new work provides unrivalled analysis and guidance on the law of judicial review. Written by three experienced practitioners, Judicial Review: Principles and Procedure includes chapters on the most common grounds for bringing a claim, such as procedural fairness and irrationality, but also covers emerging grounds such as delay on the part of public bodies and error of fact. In addition, the authors provide a separate, detailed treatment of areas such as administrative policies and the public sector equality duty. Each element of this complex area of law is carefully broken down to ensure that answers are always easy to find and, where the law is in doubt, the dispute is concisely stated and the view most likely to be preferred by the courts is expressed. The book analyses in detail the issues that are likely to arise in practice, with thorough and up-to-date reference to case law throughout. It incorporates the jurisprudence arising out of the Human Rights Act 1998, providing practitioners with a complete yet practical treatment of each relevant topic. The book contains comprehensive coverage of procedural matters in each stage of a claim, from pre-action to costs, and includes a chapter on European Union law from Marie Demetriou QC of Brick Court Chambers, providing a uniquely full treatment of all the issues which might be encountered in practice.

"This is a most useful book for the general practitioner, whether solicitor or barrister, and indeed for the layman who wishes to get a good feel for the subject of judicial review. The author's language is clear and easy to understand. There are useful tips of a practical nature which one would never find in an academic textbook." From the foreword by The Rt Hon. Lord Justice Shiemann. Judicial review is the fastest growing area of modern legal practice. To satisfy clients' needs, practitioners dealing in a broad range of areas must be able to answer two fundamental questions - is judicial review available? And if so, what is the correct procedure to be used? Based on their practical experience, the authors of Judicial Review Procedure recognise the needs of the busy lawyer and provide a one-stop guide to answering these complex questions. Through the use of flow charts, clear explanations of detailed issues and precedents which follow the procedure of a fully worked-out case, every aspect of a judicial review application is examined and potentially fatal errors identified. The key primary materials are included and the book is brought right up to date with an examination of the proposals for judicial review contained in Lord Woolf's final report on "Access to Justice".

"...An institution for those who practise public law...it has the authority that comes from being compiled by an author of singular distinction". (Lord Woolf, from the Foreword to the Fifth Edition) The new edition of this Handbook remains an indispensable source of reference and a guide to the case-law in judicial review. Established as an essential part of the library of any practitioner engaged in public law cases, if offers unrivalled coverage of administrative law, including, but not confined to, the work of the Administrative Court and its procedures. Once again completely revised and up-dated, the seventh edition approximates to a restatement of the law of judicial review, organised around 63 legal principles, each supported by a comprehensive presentation of the sources and an unequalled selection of reported case quotations. It also includes essential procedural rules, forms and guidance issued by the Administrative Court. As in the previous edition, both the Civil Procedure Rules and Human Rights Act 1998 feature prominently as major influences on the shaping of the case-law. Attention is also given to impact of the Supreme Court. Here Michael Fordham casts an experienced eye over the Court's work in the area of judicial review, and assesses the signs from a Court that will be one of the key influences in the development of judicial review in the modern era. The author, a leading member of the English public law bar, and now has been involved in many of the leading judicial review cases in recent years and is the founding editor of the Judicial Review journal."--
