Title: 'Measuring Judicial Deference in Constitutional Rights Adjudication'
Location: Moot Court Room, Faculty of Law

This paper proposes a quantitative model for measuring the degree of judicial deference in constitutional rights adjudication in Hong Kong. The model is likely to be transferable (at least partially) to jurisdictions which, like Hong Kong, embrace proportionality as a standard of review for assessing limitations to rights.

All Faculty Members and Visitors, PhD students and LLM Public Law students are welcome.
