The specifics of Monegasque procedures are numerous and are contained in the Code of Civil Procedure.

The courts are not the same as in France, nor are the areas of jurisdiction or the exercise of legal remedies.

By way of example, pleading as between co-defendants is not permitted in Monaco and a party who asserts the right to join a party to proceedings is submitted to procedural “gymnastics”, requiring experience and practice in Monegasque procedure.
