International Commission of Jurists - 2024 Seminar - Reforming the Law in Australia to Deal with Miscarriages of Justice
The Queensland chapter of the International Commission of Jurists, in partnership with the Griffith University Innocence Project and Griffith University's Law Futures Centre, is pleased to present a seminar on Reforming the Law in Australia to Deal with Miscarriages of Justice.
Presenters from around Australia including Stephen Keim SC, Samuel Lane, the Hon. Malcolm McCusker AC CVO KC, Dr Robert Moles, Rhanee Rego and Adjunct Associate Professor Bibi Sangha will share their perspectives providing insight into what it takes to uncover and correct miscarriages of justice in Australia - and how to design a better criminal justice system that will facilitate access to justice in such cases. The seminar will explore, inter alia, second and further appeals legislation which has been implemented in some states and criminal cases review commissions which operate in some overseas jurisdictions including New Zealand, Norway and the United Kingdom.
The seminar will conclude with a panel discussion focussing on reform options and what it will take to transform talk of a Criminal Cases Review Commission into a reality.
