  • Is the law neutral, and does it serve us all equally? 

    The Scottish Feminist Judgements Project attempts to answer these questions. Legal academics and practitioners got together to re-write historical cases through a gendered lens. In their re-writing, the feminist judges could only use tools - laws, evidence, and social understanding of the world - that could have been accessed by the original judge and jury at the time of the original judgement

    In this bonus episode, we discuss the impact that feminist judgments can have, and how they are meaningful. 

     

    In the first half of the episode, Amrita Ahluwalia-McMeddes and Gabrielle Blackburn, creators of the podcast, discuss what resonated with them, as non legal expert, when they first read the Scottish Feminist Judgments podcast, and why they decided to create a podcast about it. 

     

    In the second half, the editors of th book (Chloe Kennedy, Sharon Cowan and Vanessa Munro) discuss how feminist judging can help achieve fairer legal outcomes.

  • The practice of fairness

    The practice of fairness
    2020/09/16

    Mr and Mrs Coyle were married for 25 years. After several years of being separated, Mrs Coyle filed for divorce. They had accumulated some wealth over the years, and they agreed to share this wealth evenly - 50/50. However, they did not see eye to eye on what that 50/50 split would look like.


    In this third and final episode, we will look at the Coyle’s case to explore whether there is difference between the spirit of a law and the way it is applied in practice.

  • The importance of Perspective

    The importance of Perspective
    2020/09/02

    Warning: This episode discusses gender based violence, coercive control and domestic abuse.


    In 1998, Fiona Lang was charged under the Road Traffic Act of being in charge of a motor vehicle while over the limit: drink driving. Fiona pled the defence of necessity, saying she was fleeing in fear for her life. The sheriff dismissed her plea, discounting the evidence that Fiona provided to support her claim. She was charged, and leave to appeal was refused. 


    This episode, by discussing Fiona's story, we take a closer look at the impact of perspective in legal decision making. Whose stories are told in court? Whose stories matter? What type of evidence is deemed legally relevant, and what type is disregarded?
