It is supported by contributions from lawyers' organisations and private foundations. The Danish, Netherlands, Norwegian and Swedish bar associations, the Netherlands Association of Jurists and the Association of Arab Jurists have all made contributions of $1,000 or more for the current year, which is greatly appreciated. The work of the Centre during its first two years has been supported by generous grants from the Rockefeller Brothers Fund, but its future will be dependent upon increased funding from the legal profession. A grant from the Ford Foundation has helped to meet the cost of publishing the Bulletin in english, french and spanish. There remains a substantial deficit to be met. We hope that bar associations and other lawyers' organisations concerned with the fate of their colleagues around the world will decide to provide the financial support essential to the survival of the Centre.

  • Access to Justice: Judges and Lawyers Who Promote the Rule of Law and Human Rights
    Access to Justice: Human Rights Human Abuses Corporations Justice: to Involving Access Access to justice and e­ective legal remedies are crucial elements in the protection of human rights in the context of business activities. It is also relevant to the work of Access to Justice: judges and lawyers who promote the rule of law and human rights. Despite its impor- tance, access to justice is hindered by a number of obstacles unique to corporate Human Rights Abuses human rights abuses. The study of state practices in providing access to justice reveals the potential of existing instruments to ensure this right. Scrutiny of state practices in Involving Corporations this area will help the international community in its quest for new answers to the challenge of transnational corporate human rights abuse. NIGERIA There is a pressing need for more e­ective access to justice for victims of corporate human rights abuse in Nigeria, where extractive industry – in particular oil exploitation – has had an acute e­ect upon the environment and human well-being. The Nigerian legal system provides only limited legal recourse to individuals claiming human rights abuse by corporations. The shortcoming consist in legal deciencies such as the non- justiciability of economic, social and cultural rights as well as in practical causes, such as a prevalence of corruption and inadequate provision of legal aid. The study proposes a number of reforms that could improve access to justice in the country. Critical among these is the enhancement to the authority of important non-judicial mechanisms such as the National Human Rights Commission, which constitute low-cost alternatives to formal litigation.

  • Organisation and Development of the the Ability of the Bar and Judiciary to Uphold the Rights of Both the Citizen and the State
    Organisation and Development of the Legal Profession in Africa, in particular the ability of the Bar and judiciary to uphold the rights of both the citizen and the state His Hon.Judge T O. Elias'*' By way of a Preface to the present study on the legal profession in Commonwealth Africa, I a brief reference should be made to some of the less well-known contributions made by Lord Denning to the expansion of the frontiers of English law in this field. I wish to recall that I first sat under the Chairmanship of Lord Denning in the Committee on Legal Development in the Colonies, under the auspices of the House of Commons, in 1954; I was later honoured by an invitation of the Chief Justice of Trinidad and Tobago to give a Commonwealth Lecture series there in the footsteps of Lord Denning who had, a few years earlier, given a similar, but no doubt more authoritative, series oflectures on the Common Law in Trinidad and Tobago; and at the Commonwealth Magistrates Association Conference at Kuala Lumpur I was to have given one of the keynote addresses under Lord Denning's Chairmanship, but the second coup d'etat in Nigeria, in July 1975, prevented me from leaving Lagos to attend the Conference. I should also recall the two notable occasions when Lord Denning came to Nigeria: once to participate in the Constitution-making Conference on the eve of independence, and again, in 1974, when, accompanied by Lord Elwyn-Jones the then Lord Chancellor of Great Britain, Lord Denning sat with my colleagues and me, as Chief Justice, in the Supreme Court of Nigeria to hear an appeal case.

IV (Nov. 2015) PP 65-75 e-ISSN: 2279-0837, p-ISSN: 2279-0845. www.iosrjournals.org Judicial Precedent And Prevention Of Contradictory Judgments: An Expository Study Of Compliance With Judicial Precedent In Malaysian And Nigerian Courts MurtalaGaniyuMurgan* GarbaUmaruKwagyang** Shafi„i Abdul Azeez Bello*** Abstract: The doctrine of judicial precedent, which states that the court must stand by what has been decided in a case when deciding a new case by a judge in court, is commonly known among the countries that practice common law system as a strong tool for preserving uniformity in judicial decisions among courts, but in the recent past, the operation of the doctrine is said to differ from the above, thereby resulting into disparities in pronouncement of judicial decisions especially among courts of co-ordinate jurisdiction. This paper makes an expository study of compliance with judicial precedent in all categories of courts in Malaysia and Nigeria with a view to knowing the areas of compliance and non-compliance with judicial precedent.It also makes suggestionfor better compliance with judicial precedent so as to achievemoreuniformity in judicial decisions.Based ondoctrinal research approach, this paper observed poor compliance with the practice of horizontal precedentwithin the Federal court and Court of Appeal in Malaysia.It also observed poor compliance with precedent within the Supreme Court and the Court of Appeal in Nigeria. However, compliance with judicial precedent and uniformity with judicial decision are noticed between the High courts and Magistrate courts in Malaysia as well as in Nigeria.

  • Thirty-Fifth International Symposium on Economic Crime
    THIRTY-FIFTH INTERNATIONAL SYMPOSIUM ON ECONOMIC CRIME SUNDAY 3rd SEPTEMBER - SUNDAY 10th SEPTEMBER 2017 JESUS COLLEGE, UNIVERSITY OF CAMBRIDGE PREVENTING AND CONTROLLING ECONOMIC CRIME IN THE MODERN WORLD – whose responsibility and are they really up to it? The 35thCambridge International Symposium on Economic Crime Preventing and controlling economic crime in the modern world – whose responsibility and are they really up to it? The thirty-fifth international symposium on economic crime is the most extensive and ambitious programme that we have so far attempted. The over-arching theme is simply who is responsible for protecting us from economic crime and are they up to this important task? If not, then how can we assist them to do a better job – for all our sakes! These vital issues are pursued in a practical, applied and relevant manner, by those who with the benefit of experience are best placed to do so. The symposium, although held in one of the world’s leading universities and recognising the significance of intelligent deliberation, is not a talking shop for those with vested interests – official or commercial. We strive to offer a rich and deep analysis of the real issues and in particular threats to our institutions and economies presented by economically motivated crime and misconduct. We are also equally concerned to offer and assist in developing if not solutions at least better practices based on real experience and application. Therefore, well over 600 experts from around the world will share their experience and knowledge with other participants drawn from policy makers, law enforcement, compliance, regulation, business and the professions.

  • Poverty: Legal and Constitutional Implications for Human Rights Enforcement in Nigeria
    POVERTY: LEGAL AND CONSTITUTIONAL IMPLICATIONS FOR HUMAN RIGHTS ENFORCEMENT IN NIGERIA INTRODUCTION 1. 0 ABSTRACT This work ventilates the problem of poverty in Nigeria, where over 70 percent of the population is living below the poverty line, and the theoretical and practical implications of this for the enforcement of the human rights of the poor, who are completely absorbed in the daily rigours of the struggle for survival in Nigeria. For this class of people, there is a lack of value for human life and dignity, which are the goals of international human rights; they lack access to the basic necessities of life, such as food, clothing, health, education, shelter, etc. They are also excluded and have no voice or power in their communities; they are oppressed, suffer high scale injustice and their rights are violated on a daily basis with impunity on grounds of being poor; worse still, the poor lack effective rights of access to justice. The above makes human rights grossly deficient for the poor, whose human rights have been turned into mere illusions and ‘empty’ rights, with the poor having no effective means of enjoying or protecting those rights. This work therefore examines whether human rights with all that it promises are really relevant in the life of the poor and whether mere constitutional provisions are sufficient to guarantee human rights in the face of illiteracy, ignorance and economic impediments of poverty. The different rights- based approaches to combating the scourge of poverty on the international plane are considered. This work also analyzes the ways by which the conditions of being poor have robbed the poor of their rights, and in a lucid manner elucidates the many perennial and monumental challenges confronting the poor in accessing justice, a situation which has made it difficult for the poor to escape from the clutches of poverty.
