Lessons on Common Law, Equity and Constitutional Remedies by V.S.R. Avadhani

Avadhani’s Lessons Series on Civil Law: Lessons on Common Law, Equity & Constitutional Remedies is a scholarly and practical exploration of foundational civil jurisprudence. Authored by V.S.R. Avadhani and V. Soubhagya Valli, the book examines the historical evolution and modern application of common law principles and equitable doctrines within the Indian legal framework.

A significant portion of the work is devoted to constitutional remedies, including the nature and scope of writ jurisdiction under Articles 32 and 226 of the Constitution of India. The book provides clear explanations of writs such as Habeas Corpus, Mandamus, Certiorari, Prohibition, and Quo Warranto, along with their procedural and substantive dimensions.

The authors bridge theory with judicial interpretation, helping readers understand how equitable principles influence civil and constitutional adjudication. The work is particularly useful for advocates practicing in High Courts and the Supreme Court, judicial service aspirants, and postgraduate law students.

With authoritative insights and doctrinal clarity, this volume stands as a comprehensive civil law reference for understanding the interaction between common law traditions, equitable remedies, and constitutional enforcement mechanisms.
