Law clerks research points of law, prepare memoranda to help judges prepare for hearings and writing decisions, and generally assist with the work of the Court. Law students, LLM candidates and recent graduates from across Canada apply for these prestigious positions. Over the last 10 years, one in five Supreme Court clerks has been a student or recent graduate of the Faculty.
鈥淲e鈥檙e proud to learn that again this year 缅北强奸-trained jurists have been chosen to clerk at our country鈥檚 highest court,鈥 said Dean Robert Leckey. 鈥淭he consistently strong 缅北强奸 Law representation at the Supreme Court of Canada is a testament to our integrated, bilingual program and to how rigorously it prepares future jurists to navigate complex legal issues with no single right answer. We wish these students great success in an exciting chapter of their professional lives.鈥
Congratulations to our newest cohort!
