Procedure meaning
Those rules of the law which determine the existence or not of other rights. Procedure is the framework within substance is set. Substantive rights are the actual claim on the merits as opposed to the rules which condition and determine the enforcement of those rights.
At common law there was a unity of procedural write and substantive action. Thus substance and procedure were unified. However the limitations on the number of writs and strict legalism led first to the creation of courts of equity and ultimately to the introduction of codes of civil and criminal procedure which replaced the formalistic writs of the common law. Despite this fact the actions which those writs served still exist. Thus while some modern torts such as negligent infliction of emotional distress or strict liability did not exist at the common law others such as trespass, action on the case, trover, conversion etc. did – and still do. The extinction of a common law right must be by express legislative act.
Civil
The rules governing procedures in all fields other than criminal law. Even administrative law is governed by rules of civil procedure, but only indirectly: special administrative courts do exist, with relaxed rules of procedure, but they may always be appealed from to the civil courts and employ rules which while simplified for lay persons nevertheless paralell the rules of civil procedure.
Criminal
Those rules of procedure which govern the law of crimes, i.e. those rules which may deprive a person of life or liberty. Criminal procedure has, like civil procedure, been almost universally codified. Under criminal procedure higher standards of proof are invoked than in civil cases. See: standard of proof.
