Part 1 provides a comprehensive history of the inherent jurisdiction, before giving a detailed account of the core principles and procedure applicable today, and comparing the approaches taken in Scotland, Ireland, Canada, Australia and New Zealand. Part 2 considers the court's use of its inherent jurisdiction in specific categories of case, including child abduction, medical decision-making about children, child protection, incapacitous and vulnerable adults. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eDespite its ancient roots, the inherent jurisdiction is relied on by High Court judges on a daily basis, in both everyday and cutting-edge cases. This book argues that the court's approach to some of these cases is justified, but that judges often make unnecessary and inappropriate use of the inherent jurisdiction. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThrough its critical examination of the modern use of wardship and the inherent jurisdiction, the book is essential reading for practitioners and researchers working in this field. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe ebook editions of this book are available open access under a CC BY-NC 4.0 licence on bloomsburycollections.com.\u003c\/i\u003e","brand":"Hart Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47773292691607,"sku":"9781509972180","price":5742.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781509972180.webp?v=1777978653","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/wards-of-court-and-the-inherent-jurisdiction-9781509972180","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
