SJD Candidate
Thesis title:
Remedial Justice: The Legitimacy of Remedies for Unconstitutional Criminal Laws
Office in Falconer Hall

Email: cara.locke@mail.utoronto.ca

Cara is interested in how judges act like legislators, and how legislators act like judges.

In the penal context, her doctoral project develops the difference between legislative remedies enacted by Parliament and interpretive remedies devised by judges.

Cara's previous work has been cited by the Supreme Court of Canada in support of a disciplined approach to suspended declarations of invalidity.

Outside of academia, Cara has front-line experience as a lawyer in both courtrooms and legislative chambers. This concrete grounding continues to shape her work on the proper boundaries between judges and legislators.
