Wednesday, 28 November 2018 - 6.15pm
Location: 
Faculty of Law, G28 (The Beckwith Moot Court Room)

Speaker: Mr John Eldridge, University of Sydney

This paper gives an account of recent developments in respect of the penalty rule in Australia and England, before going on to explore two unresolved questions. The first is whether Australian law recognises two jurisdictions to relieve against penalties – one in equity and another at common law – or instead a unitary penalty doctrine. The second is the important question of how the recent developments are playing out “on the ground”.

This seminar is open to all LLM, MCL and PhD students, Faculty members and Faculty visitors.
