It seems like it should be obvious, but apparently it has not been.

" #Technical_standards like fire and electrical #codes developed by private organizations but incorporated into #publiclaw can be freely disseminated without any liability for #copyright infringement, a federal appeals court ruled Tuesday. "

The French executive has used "all the means at its disposal and, in the process, it distorts the Constitution", regrets Laureline #Fontaine, a professor of #publicLaw in #Paris.

"The #Constitution is not a succession of weapons, it is a framework, a spirit, she continues. Here, it no longer serves to set limits. One has the feeling that the opposite is true: it serves to give even greater powers to the government."

It’s a super exciting space and more PhD students can only make it better!

UK Public law question for you on new year's day:

If you could get your MP to pass a single law in 2023 that would impact the constitution or another important public or administrative law area, what would that law be?

Please comment.

I think we academics overestimate our importance if we insist that we meet in person for a conference restricting remote options & in a place most only reach with a huge #climate footprint🌏 (+if privileged🛂💰). I consider it would be unethical for me to attend such events. Some of us in #internationallaw #lawprof #publiclaw received an invitation today. #staygrounded #climateemergency @StayGrounded_net @PIL

Picture of a demonstration from the AviAction: Stay Grounded Action Conference 2022. One sees a plane and activists saying that the "green plane" is a plane that does not fly.

Hello (again).
I'm Adam. I'm a constitutional lawyer at the University of Liverpool.

I'm particularly interested in
- the limits of parliament's law-making power (yes, I think there are some)
- the scrutiny of delegated legislation (I think it's not done well enough)
- the future of the monarchy (I am sceptical).

There's a big list of indicative specialisms in the ad but others are welcome too (e.g., ahem, public law...)

Come and join us.

*grits teeth* ok so I'm a legal academic at Durham. My research is broadly #sociolegal and #qualitative, and my area is #publiclaw / #constitutionallaw. I focus much more on the non-judicial branches of the state, the #executivebranch and #legislativebranch / #legislatures/ #Parliaments. I'm *particularly* interested in the role of #officials / #civilservice/ #bureaucracy, and the maintenance of ideals in the grubbiness of organisation. I think I've used up my hashtags quota for the year....

The hearing will be live streamed - you *should* be able watch it here 📺 👉 https://www.judiciary.uk/the-court-of-appeal-civil-division-live-streaming-of-court-hearings/

(This is one of the (many!) cases I worked on as Legal Director at #GoodLawProject - it feels very strange not to be there today!

It's probably a relief for our lawyers not to have me frantically passing them notes every 5 minutes!

Good luck to them all - they're an incredible team 💪)

The key questions before the Court:

⭐️ is there a legal duty to create and maintain records so they are available for posterity (such that modern practices, including auto-delete, are unlawful)?

⭐️ to what extent are government policies enforceable as a matter of public law?

So #GoodLawProject are back in the Court of Appeal today, tackling the issue of ministers using private email & Whatsapp to conduct Government business

The fact they do so - routinely - is not in dispute

The question today is whether it is lawful for them to do so

Lookit, an "academic social media account" is a pretty esoteric thing. But I'd like a space to see what others are working on and kick around ideas, and if it doesn't have some of the fraught-ness of Twitter, that's totally fine by me.

I mostly write on #humanrights, #publiclaw, #brexit, #devolution, #colonialism and #politicalviolence, so expect to find nothing controversial here...
