  • Doing Talmud: an Ethnographic Study in a Religious High School in Israel
    Doing Talmud: An Ethnographic Study in a Religious High School in Israel Thesis submitted for the degree of “Doctor of Philosophy” by Aliza Segal Submitted to the Senate of the Hebrew University of Jerusalem May 2011 Iyyar 5771 This work was carried out under the supervision of: Prof. Marc Hirshman Dr. Zvi Bekerman Acknowledgements If an apt metaphor for the completion of a dissertation is the birthing of a child, then indeed it takes a village to write a dissertation. I am fortunate that my village is populated with insightful, supportive and sometimes even heroic people, who have made the experience not only possible but also enriching and enjoyable. My debt of gratitude to these villagers looms large, and I would like to offer a few small words of thanks. To my advisors, Dr. Zvi Bekerman and Professor Menachem (Marc) Hirshman, for their generosity with time, insight, expertise, and caring. I have been working with Zvi since my MA thesis, and he has shaped my world view not only as a researcher but also as an individual. His astute and lightening-speed comments on everything I have ever sent him to read have pushed me forwards at every stage of my work, and it is with great joy that I note that I have never left his office without something new to read. Menachem has brought his keen eye and sharp wit to the project, and from the beginning has been able to see the end. His attention to the relationship between structure and content has informed my work as both a writer and a reader.

This situation is redressed by the proposed Provincial Offences Act, which creates a clear, self~contained procedural code to simplify procedures, eliminate technicalities, enhance procedural rights and protections, and remove the obstacle of delay from the assertion of rights and the conclusion of prosecutions.

  • Class Legal Webinar - 16Th June 2021
    CLASS LEGAL WEBINAR - 16TH JUNE 2021 Contempt of Court – All Change? Sir Jonathan Cohen and Nicholas Allen QC • Do the new streamlined and simplified rules change what constitutes contempt of court or just the procedure that has to be followed? • What is now required when making a contempt application - what must the application contain and what written evidence must be filed? What facts need to be asserted or proved? What notice needs to be given to the defendant? • When is legal aid available in civil contempt proceedings? • When will the court decide to hold the hearing remotely rather than in public? When does the court need to hear submissions from media organisations? • What is contempt in the face of the court and how will it be dealt with? • What punishments can the court now impose? • To what extent does the 2015 Practice Direction - Practice Direction on Committal for Contempt of Court in Open Court - still apply? Background 1) The original FPR Part 37 which came into force on 22nd April 2014 (coinciding with the launch of the Family Court) was closely modelled on CPR Part 81.1 2) A new version of Part 81 was substituted with effect from 1st October 2020. Part 37 was also reviewed and a new version, modelled on the new Part 81, also came into force on 1st October 2020.2 3) The new Part 37 reduces 38 rules to just to 10. 4) Contempt of court (described in r37.1(1) as “contempt proceedings”) can take many different forms. Helpfully there is now a common procedure for all of them.

Sharpe* Habeas Corpus in Canada I. Introduction Habeas corpus is a subject which has not attracted much attention from legal writers and there has been no thorough examimation of the nature of review which may be exercised on habeas corpus.1 The aim of this article is to provide a critical and comprehensive account of the scope of review which is available on habeas corpus in Canada. The subject is a technical one but may be of crucial importance in those situations where habeas corpus is still a useful remedy. It is not proposed to discuss all aspects of the law of habeas corpus but simply to outline the nature of the powers of review which are available. In dealing with any aspect of the law of habeas corpus we are confronted by the vagaries of the common law and with a somewhat bewildering array of technical rules.
