The article is called “New Qatar court will blend legal cultures of West and East.” It said that Qatar established a new civil and commercial court. The president of court is Lord Woolf, which is a former chief justice of Wales and England. This establishment is part of the Qatar Financial Centre. Qatar government wanted to attract multinational cooperation that deal with investment and financial services.
Basically the task of the court is to create laws and procedures using the common law and civil code of Qatari law. Other places such as Dubai and London have this type of court before Qatar. The article speculates that in the future these courts might work together. The article also contains quotes from the judges and Lord Woolf himself.
