Description
The promulgation by the Supreme Court of A.M. No. 19‐10‐20‐SC on October 15, 2019, amending Rules 6 to 35 of the 1997 Rules of Civil Procedure, which becomes effective on May 1, 2020, necessitates the updating and revision of this work. In so doing, new legislations and Supreme Court circulars affecting it were also taken into consideration. The citations are enriched with more than a thousand cases from the last two decades to aid the reader for further research and to ensure that relevant rules and procedural principles cited are still good.
The Revised Rules on Small Claims Case, which increased the amount involved, in tandem with the Revised Rules on Summary Procedure as well as the procedure in court‐annexed mediation and judicial dispute resolution are also incorporated in this book.
