Description

This course provides an opportunity for students to combine class work on appellate procedure, client-centred representation on appeal, issue spotting and persuasive writing, with work on an actual criminal trial transcript for the purpose of developing grounds of appeal and an appellate brief.
It is envisaged that there will be one, three hour class per week. The classes will be used to discuss appellate procedure, the ethics of appellate representation, issue spotting and the art of persuasive argument. Classes will also be set aside for discussion and analysis of a trial transcript. An excursion is envisaged to the Court of Criminal Appeal.
