The MBA Legal Research Section invites law students and professors to present their recent or ongoing legal research projects. Each presenter will have five minutes to present, followed by a five minute question period. We are hoping to create a forum in which legal practitioners, students and academics can come together to learn about the interesting legal research that is occurring within the Manitoba legal community. Refreshments will be provided.
