If there’s one case that could come close to encapsulating the faults of the Canadian legal system, it’d be Castor Holdings. University of Ottawa law professor Adam Dodek probes into the suit that sank one of the country’s highest-profile law firms: thewalrus.ca/the-inhuman-co…

The “Inhuman” Court Case That Helped Sink a Major Law Firm thewalrus.ca/the-inhuman-co… via The Walrus #HeenanBlaikie With a cameo appearance by Justice Marie-Josée Hogue #CanLaw #legal #Cdnlaw

"The case continued for such a long time because of the deep pockets funding the lawyers for both sides and because of ineffective management by the first trial judge."

Despite losing the longest case in Canadian history, the lawyers at Heenan Blaikie certainly did not see Castor Holdings as a defeat. For more than a decade, it had been the goose that laid the golden egg in the Montreal office. Author Adam Dodek explores: thewalrus.ca/the-inhuman-co…

“No one seems willing to ask hard questions about the ramifications of large, long cases,” writes University of Ottawa law professor Adam Dodek. “How many people spend extra time in jail, forced to wait until the next available court date comes up?” thewalrus.ca/the-inhuman-co…

In other businesses, employees with nothing to do get laid off—but not at law firm Heenan Blaikie. There was something romantic about that notion, but ultimately, the Heenan partners could no longer ignore the fact that the firm was a business. thewalrus.ca/the-inhuman-co…
