This course is intended as an introduction to the basic structure, values, and problems of civil procedure. It should be seen as a vehicle for exploring issues arising in most systems of civil procedure in Canada, and in the Western world generally, rather than as a survey of the rules of procedure that will dominate the lawyering experience of those who will choose litigation as a career. It addresses a broad range of questions, from strategic and financial considerations of litigation all the way to broad principles of the judicial order, as well as the key aspects of pre-trial procedure. The course is meant as an effort to highlight fundamental tensions in the organization and implementation of dispute resolution by state-appointed judges.
TQR: At a minimum, a first degree in law. Several years of significant practice or professional experience, in the relevant area; Experience in teaching undergraduate law students in a bilingual setting
