OBA Environmental Law PROGRAM | 5:00 PM to 7:00 PM
The Advanced Environmental Law Practitioner Roundtable is back by popular demand.
Join us for a valuable, interactive and frank discussion amongst senior environmental lawyers. This year, engage with your peers on complex environmental law topics including:
- the application of limitation periods in historical environmental claims, with specific consideration of recent decisions in Sorbam Investments Ltd v Litwack and Albert Bloom Limited v London Transit Commission;
- appropriate penalties for convictions of environmental offences;
- advice for negotiating sentencing with the Crown, including mitigating factors, fines and imprisonment;
- insights on administrative monetary penalties; and
- how fundamental environmental protection legislation looks today with a focus on the Conservation Authorities Act and the Endangered Species Act.
If your practice is focused on environmental law, come prepared to actively engage with your colleagues at this valuable event.
