FOREWORD

Jeff

Berryman

has

written

an

excellent text that will

be of

very great

value

to

Judges, Lawyers

and

Students.

This

book

is

extremely well

organized

and

written with commendable clarity.

It

provided

an

instructive

and

interesting weekend

of

reading

for me.

There

can be no

doubt that

we are

very much part

of a

global econ-

omy. More

and

more Canadians

are

transacting internationally.

The

importance

of

interim injunctions

in

commercial matters

is

recognized

in

this book. What must

be

established

is set out

clearly

and in

logical

order. Similarly

the

relatively recent arrival

of

Mareva

injunctions

is

well

set

out. They have

an

obvious significance

to all

those doing business

in

other countries. Their history

and the

requirements which applicants

must

satisfy

are

carefully

reviewed. Similarly Anton

Filler

injunctions

and

their

importance

in

relation

to

documents

are

carefully

considered.

Injunctive

relief will

be

sought with ever increasing

frequency

as

Canadians extend their international business activities. This text with

its

scholarly historical review

is

presented with

an

excellent mixture

of

academic

learning

and

orderly pragmatism.

It

will

be an

invaluable

resource

for all

members

of the

profession.

I

have stressed

the

chapters dealing with injunctions because they

are

so

very important

and

topical.

Yet

there

are

other aspect

of

equita-

ble

relief such

as

specific performance that

are set out

with

the

same

orderly clarity that makes this book such

a

delight

to

read.

It

will

be a

cherished addition

to

every legal library.

The

Honourable Peter Cory, Q.C.
