Conversations on Civil Justice: The Civil Justice Crisis in Housing Cases
An average day in a typical housing court will see about 97% of tenants appearing without a lawyer while an average 81% of landlords have legal representation. What are the implications of this gross inequity for the civil justice system as a whole?
How are courts dealing with the crisis? And what steps might be taken to address it?
Please join this discussion of the issues with:
- CJRI’s Richard Jolly (Professor at Southwestern Law),
- John Pollock, Coordinator of the National Coalition for a Civil Right to Counsel, and
- Meghan Gordon, Housing Co-Director for the East Bay Community Law Center.
