Law Reform Reports
The Commission has published papers and reports in a variety of areas, including enforcement of family maintenance obligations, adult guardianship and living wills, the jury system, probate, mental health law, builders liens, vexatious litigants, grandparent/grandchild access, contaminated sites, trusts law (the rule against perpetuities), and human rights law (seniors-only housing). The Commission was one of the lead partners in the development of Nova Scotia’s Civil Procedure Rules, which govern the process of litigation in Nova Scotia’s courts.
