Monash University is pleased to announce that ‘The Future of Civil Procedure – Innovation and Inertia’ forum will be held on 17 February 2016 as part of the Civil Justice Forum (17 – 19 February 2016).

Times are changing – how is the civil justice system keeping up? Join us for a discussion about how the legal system is evolving in its dynamic environment. This exciting forum will cover key issues in the modern legal environment, such as the role of courts in a changing environment, the impact and use of technology on law and litigation funding and regulation.

Participants at the forum will include judges, magistrates, practitioners, policy-makers, academics and other experts working in civil justice, in courts and tribunals, and throughout the justice system more broadly.

The program for the forum is under development, but we invite you to save the date to attend this event.  Please email lisa.wulfsohn@monash.edu if you wish to be put on our contact list.

We look forward to seeing you at Monash University in 2016.
