Posted on February 25, 2011	by Chris Dale

Spitting on the deck of the CPR
Posted on October 27, 2009	by Chris Dale

I disclose the discovery that Britain is on its own
Posted on September 7, 2009	by Chris Dale
The UK cast itself off from the US and the rest of the common law world when we renamed “discovery” to “disclosure”. Now the whole Special Relationship has apparently died. US-UK cooperation on discovery/disclosure will survive that. Inevitably, this column … Continue reading →
