Miss. R. Civ. P. 1
SCOPE OF RULES
These rules govern procedure in the circuit courts, chancery courts, and county courts
in all suits of a civil nature, whether cognizable as cases at law or in equity, subject to certain
limitations enumerated in Rule 81; however, even those enumerated proceedings are still
subject to these rules where no statute applicable to the proceedings provides otherwise or
sets forth procedures inconsistent with these rules. These rules shall be construed,
administered, and employed by the court and the parties to secure the just, speedy, and
inexpensive determination of every action.

Unofficial copy of government-published law, reproduced from official sources with full provenance. Not an official publication; verify against official sources before relying on it in a filing. Records in the 'guidance' corpus, and only that corpus, are sub-regulatory (interpretive guidelines, survey procedures) and are not binding law. Validity bounds follow each jurisdiction's declared temporalBasis.
