Administrative law is about the struggle to achieve a balance between the competing interests that shape the design and implementation of public programs.
Administrative Law is the law that governs the executive branch of government/the administrative state. This course primarily explores the tensions between: preserving the rule of law and the rights and interests of those affected by administrative action; and honouring legislative intent in delegating decision-making authority to administrative actors.
This course is intended to help you learn how to conduct a trial of a criminal case, although the skills taught are applicable to civil cases as well. The exercises are based upon case files, which include statements, exhibits, forensic reports, investigative notes and wiretap evidence. Those problems are designed for a jury trial, but the skills are necessary for any legal audience.
The course will serve as a deeper dive into discrete family law topics and will enable students to develop a deeper understanding of the issues in this area of law.
