FOREWORD

to the First Edition

Jeff Berry man has written an excellent te xt 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 par t of a global economy.

More and more Canadian s are transacting inter nationally. 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 signi f‌icance to all those doing business i n other countries.

Their history and the requirements which applicant s must satisfy are care-

fully reviewed. Similarly Anton Piller 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 historic al review, is presented wit h an excellent mixture of aca-

demic 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 aspects of equit-

able 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.
