Supreme Court of Korea Overseas Research and Study Program
Each year since 2006, the Asian Law Centre has hosted a Judge from Korea as part of the Overseas Research and Study Program of the Supreme Court of Korea. The Program enables Judges from Korea to experience life in a jurisdiction outside Korea for a 6-12 month period and provides them with a valuable opportunity to study Australian law courses, access University resources and undertake research and training activities, including visits to Victorian courts and meetings with court personnel.
Past judges include:
- 2007 (Semester 2) - Judge Cheol Min Jung
Judge Jung's research interests include mediation as a new means of dispute resolution; and the adversarial system and methodology of collecting/presenting evidence in investigation.
- 2007 (Semester 1) - Judge Sang Ryeol Shin
Judge Shin's research interests include constitutional law and domestic labour law.
- 2006-2007 - Judge Sang Moo Lee
