The British Institute of International and Comparative Law (BIICL) is hosting an event on ‘Reframing Jurisdiction: Revising the Grounds or a New Scheme?’ on 11 May 2022.

The event, which is convened by Eva Lein (BIICL / Lausanne), will feature two panels. In the first panel, Richard Fentiman (Cambridge) and Alistair Mackenzie (2TG) will consider proposals presently before the Civil Procedure Rules Committee to make changes to the existing jurisdictional gateways. In the second panel, Adrian Briggs and Andrew Dickinson (both Oxford) will present their own ideas for reform, on which Dame Elizabeth Gloster (One Essex Court) will comment. The panels will be chaired by Marie Louise Kinsler (2TG / Cambridge) and Alexander Layton (20 Essex / KCL).
