Tis is the frst time that the Supreme Court will sit outside of a courthouse since the Four Courts reopened in 1932, the frst time the court sits in Galway, and only its third time to sit outside of Dublin. To mark the importance of this occasion, we are running a series of events on campus for the public and for our students. I would like to thank the Chief Justice and members of the Supreme Court for participating in these events and for giving their time so generously. Dr Charles O’Mahony, Head of School, NUI Galway We are particularly grateful for the Supreme Court’s willingness to engage with our students. As one of Ireland’s leading Law Schools, our key focus is on the development of both critical thinking and adaptability in our future legal professionals. Tis includes the ability to engage in depth with the new legal challenges arising from social change, and to analyse and apply the law to developing legal problems. Te Supreme Court’s participation in student seminars on a wide range of current legal issues is not only deeply exciting for our students, but ofers them an excellent opportunity to appreciate at frst hand the importance of rigorous legal analysis, and the balance between 3 necessary judicial creativity and maintaining the rule of law.

  • Address of the Hon. Mr Justice Frank Clarke, Chief Justice of Ireland, to the Law Reform
    Address of The Hon. Mr Justice Frank Clarke, Chief Justice of Ireland, to the Law Reform Commission Annual Conference, November 2017 ____________ Firstly can I thank the President for the opportunity to do the one thing I have wanted all my life; that is to be the warm up act for Michael McDowell and Dearbhail McDonald. Those who are old enough will remember that, in a previous life, one John Quirke was a quite distinguished scrum half in rugby who represented Leinster and occasionally Ireland. So I feel now like the out-half who has just been passed the ball by the nippy scrumhalf and I have to make a number of decisions. Do I deploy the hard-running of inside-centre McDowell; or the silkier skills of outside-centre McDonald; or do I try and go for a run on my own; or do I put up a Garryowen and throw up a few ideas and see where they land. I will leave it up to you at the end of my address to determine which of these plays I have decided to deploy. I would like to do two things. First, I hope to make some general observations on where we are at in relation to law reform, particularly so far as it affects the courts, as that is the day job and it is my job to consider these matters in relation to the courts; and second, to seek to apply those general observations to a number of areas which might benefit from future research on the part of the Law Reform Commission.

The complexity and cost of managing information is currently a major challenge for organisations. The vast majority of data is now stored electronically on an increasing variety of devices. An inspection by a regulator or discovery/ disclosure order will result in large volumes of information needing to be collated, searched, and reviewed. Currently the cost of an eDiscovery project can easily account for over 50% of an overall case. The standards expected by litigants & the courts now demand that a defensible & proportionate approach be taken. This is evidenced by the wide scale adoption of the 2013 & 2014 eDiscovery Guides released in Ireland. This conference will cover the essential skills required of lawyers, IT & eDiscovery professionals in managing an eDiscovery project in a cost efficient & timely manner. Proudly sponsored by: Conference Timetable 7.30 Registration for Breakfast Primer Session 11.00 Litigations Readiness - Building the “A” team 8.00 Breakfast Primer Session: eDiscovery – What you need to Know This session will involve three presenters each covering how they would This preliminary session is for those who wish to gain an understanding of contribute to a team when eDiscovery is required.
