Civil Procedure is the study of rules of litigation and the complex strategies proceeding and or during the litigation process. Unlike other substantive courses, Civil Procedure is not the examination of rights, injuries, and remedies or damages. Instead, Civil Procedure is the examination of justice and how we define this objective from a procedural perspective. It is also “insider’s law” concerned with the framework upon which these rights are brought before a tribunal and how to collect damages awarded for injuries.
