Facts in Public Law Adjudication

Joe Tomlinson & Anne Carter

University of York & University of Adelaide

This book considers how courts engage with questions of fact in public law adjudication. It also considers whether the existing laws and practices surrounding evidence are sufficient, and how other disciplines might assist the courts.

The book reconnects the key practical issues surrounding evidence and facts with the lively academic debate on judicial review in the common law world; it therefore contributes to an emerging area of scholarly debate and also has practical implications for the conduct of litigation and government policy-making.

 Joe Tomlinson is Professor of Public Law at the University of York, UK and Research Director at the Public Law Project, UK.

Anne Carter is Lecturer in Law at the University of Adelaide, Australia.
