The Crown – both federal and provincial – continues to find itself a target of litigation, whether in class actions or more generally. Both plaintiffs’ and Crown counsel need to meet the challenges posed in this continuously developing area – challenges that embrace the nature and scope of liability, the procedures and best practices involved in suing or defending the government, and the far-reaching consequences for the public interest.
As a government lawyer, private practitioner or in-house litigation counsel, you need the insights and tools which an expert faculty will place before you in this eighth annual Osgoode Professional Development program. Like its well-received predecessors, it will guide you through the latest developments – and help you over the gravest pitfalls – in civil litigation involving public authorities. Crown Liability has established a reputation as an outstanding guide to the relevant substantive law, procedural rules and winning strategies and tactics in the field.
