Description
This book is an indispensable resource for all those involved in regulatory offences, including Crown and defence counsel, members of the judiciary, regulatory agencies, government, and legal educators.
The initial purchase price is $399.95, plus shipping and applicable tax. Earlscourt publishes updates approximately every five months. The first update is provided at no cost if published within three months of purchase.
Last Update:
Update 35, was shipped September, 2024. It contains a completely updated ch. 10 (Charter of Rights Implications).
Table of Cases:
The Table of Cases for Libman on Regulatory Offences in Canada is now available online, instead of in the book itself (see link above): The current Table of Cases is up-to-date as of Update 32, which Earlscourt published in November 2021.
The Table of Cases is provided online because Earlscourt wishes to keep the cost of subscribing to its loose-leaf publications as affordable as possible. Annual loose-leaf maintenance costs have become an enormous concern for purchasers, as this article explains.
Avoiding continued republication of the Table of Cases with every update allows Earlscourt to continue to freeze update prices at $179.95 (plus tax and shipping), and to keep the number of updates to the minimum level required to maintain the currency of the materials. We don’t believe that customers should have to bear an annual cost of $2,000 – $3,000 to maintain a loose-leaf publication.
Customers with questions regarding the online Table of Cases are invited to contact us at earlscourt@saltspring.com.
