[IntLawProfessors] More on UP from Opinio Juris

[Don Anton]

Greetings colleagues,

Professors Evan Fox-Decent (McGill) and Evan Criddle (Syracuse) write more on Opino Juris today about the University of Philippine’s College of Law drama surrounding the allegations of plagiarism. See http://opiniojuris.org/2010/10/26/holding-the-up-law-faculty-in-contempt-would-be-a-grave-mistake/

I fully support Sandy's suggestion, but I too am not well placed to take a laboring oar at this time.  Others?

Kind regards,
Don

Diane Desierto gives a very full account, and I agree with Julian Ku  
that international law scholars should come to the support of the UP  
faculty.  I would think that a short but powerful letter addressed to  
the court but simultaneously made public is one effective way to do  
that. I don't have the time or expertise to write such a letter, but  
will sign one.
   Are there any international organizations or associations of  
supreme courts or domestic courts that should be enlisted? Any  
international academic organizations?
