The handbook ‘Judicial Practice of Civil Courts’ has been developed within the framework of the joint ‘Rule of Law Partnership in Uzbekistan’ project of the Supreme Court of Uzbekistan, the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) and UNDP, on the basis of civil cases reviewed by the judicial board of the Supreme Court.

The new handbook is intended for judges, lawyers, jurisprudence experts, students and researchers.
