Purpose
The project consists of providing enhanced French language training, including specific sessions on French common law legal terminology, to Alberta Provincial Court judges to support an itinerant bilingual bench within the Provincial Court of Alberta. The training will enhance judges' abilities to preside in French over proceedings in criminal trials; applications for bail; sentencing hearings; matters under the Youth Criminal Justice Act; matters with the Family law and Child Protection jurisdiction of the Court; civil matters; pre-trial conferences in all areas; and judicial dispute resolution hearings.
