Law School trains lawyers for animals - Catherine - 06-08-2017 The University of Connecticut law School is training future lawyers to represent animals in court. There are a number of ways this is needed. In an animal abuse caseĀ the animal's lawyer would representĀ them as the victim. This would ensure that the case is not dismissed and that there is better sentencing. http://news.google.ca/news/url?sr=1&ct2=ca%2F7_0_s_4_1_a&sa=t&usg=AFQjCNFkv3hx5RkUz7Fyb5nYaPDuaQI4Bg&cid=null&url=https%3A%2F%2Fheatst.com%2Fculture-wars%2Fthe-university-of-connecticut-is-training-lawyers-to-represent-animals%2F&ei=F8w4WfDvFMXUqAL8upGoCA&sig2=LZ9iR9sGzMjPK03L-aloRw&rt=HOMEPAGE&vm=STANDARD&bvm=section&did=1774586470910271411&sid=-7490828287450190495&ssid=cstm&st=2&at=dt0 This is not the only law school to prepare lawyers for animal cases. I hope this means that animals can expect better justice in the future. RE: Law School trains lawyers for animals - Tobi - 06-09-2017 This is great news! I am really pleased to hear about it. Well done Connecticut! RE: Law School trains lawyers for animals - Catherine - 06-09-2017 Who knows where this will go. As animals gain legal rights then there will be a need for trained lawyers. Maybe a group of animals will bring a class action suit against a group of hunters. There are possibilities once you admit that an animal can have a lawyer. |
