Here’s their press release
The CGCP is launching a new website, featuring enhanced search functionality and new products.
New products are up on the CGCP’s brand new website, including all 52 Guiding Cases (“GCs”) released to date (English translations of GCs 47-52 will be published on Nov. 15), 14 commentaries, 4 issues of Guiding Cases Analytics™, the latest edition of Guiding Cases Surveys™, and our inaugural Guiding Cases Seminar™. Check it out here.
Enhanced functionality. The new website offers enhanced search functionality empowering us to put GCs in perspective (thereby, producing a series of products, Guiding Cases in Perspective™) by comparing original judgments as they develop into GCs and tracking subsequent cases that cite GCs. These developments will make our knowledge-base an even stronger research tool. Expect to see many more subsequent cases and Guiding Cases in Perspective™ analyses up on the site in the coming months.
See the CGCP in action at this year’s Open Government Partnership Global Summit and the World Bank’s Law, Justice and Development Week.
Open Government Partnership Global Summit, Mexico City, Mexico. On October 28, 2015, the CGCP will present a panel and workshop entitled Providing Access to Justice for All through Open Judiciary: Comparative Experiences from the U.S., Latin America, and China, together with leading scholars and practitioners spanning in focus from developed and developing to closed societies at the 2015 Open Government Partnership (OGP) Global Summit in Mexico City.
Won’t be in Mexico? Participate from around the globe by taking a 5-minute survey, available in Chinese, English, and Spanish! What factors do you think are most critical to achieving open judiciary? Let us know here. This survey will close on November 15; results will be released by the end of November.
Law, Justice and Development Week, World Bank Headquarters, Washington D.C. Adding to the good news of our OGP Global Summit acceptance, the CGCP was also selected to present at the World Bank’s Law, Justice and Development (LJD) Week . The panel The Role of ‘Precedents’/Guiding Cases in the Effective Application, Interpretation, and Implementation of the Law will feature judges and trial lawyers from the United States, mainland China, Taiwan, and Japan. Registration will close after November 6.
