Studies in Civil Procedural Law

Couture, Eduardo J. Studies in Civil Procedural Law. Buenos Aires: Depalma, 1978. 3 volumes.

A fundamental work by Eduardo J. Couture, one of the most influential scholars in Latin American procedural law. This three-volume collection brings together a wide range of doctrinal studies concerning the principal issues of civil procedure, examined from legal, constitutional and practical perspectives.

The first volume focuses on the relationship between the Constitution and civil procedure, addressing constitutional guarantees of judicial proceedings, the administration of justice, the judiciary and comparative procedural law.

The second volume is devoted principally to evidence in civil proceedings, including documentary evidence, testimonial evidence and the relationship between evidentiary law and Civil Law.

The third volume examines judges, parties and proceedings, together with the relationship between law and procedure and various aspects of procedural acts and civil litigation.

Couture's work is particularly significant for understanding the development of modern procedural doctrine in Latin America and remains of interest to lawyers, judges, researchers, advanced students and collectors of Argentine legal literature.
