Recorded Seminar: “Making Sense of the Rule in Browne v. Dunn: A Practical Perspective”
Recorded: 16 April 2021, 67 minutes
No lawyer has escaped the joys of being told that they failed to comply with the rule in Browne v Dunn, a rule that Professor Sankoff despises above all others. It is one of the least understood cases in the jurisprudence. In this seminar, you’ll learn: (a) how the “rule” works; (b) why Professor Sankoff hates it so much; (c) how to ensure you comply with the basics; and, most importantly, (d) how to respond when someone claims you’ve breached the rule.

Recorded Seminar: Communicating with Witnesses: Sorting Through the Law and the Ethical Rules (accredited for 1 hour Professionalism content with the LSO)
Recorded: 16 October 2020, 80 minutes
This seminar will delve into the complex ethical and legal rules governing pre- and in-trial communication with witnesses. What are the dangers of speaking with potential witnesses prior to trial? What is the difference between “coaching” and “interfering” with witness testimony? Are there certain types of witnesses you cannot speak to? If you do choose to speak to a (potential) witness, what should you do to minimize the potential for difficulty down the road?
What happens once the trial starts? When can you speak with your witness – or your client – once testimony is underway? This is an extremely nuanced area and it is easy to go wrong. Professor Sankoff will sort through the details in this informative and practical seminar.
