ADVOCATE
“Of interest to the lawyer and in the lawyer’s interest”
ON THE FRONT COVER
The Honourable Susan Griffin appears on this edition’s front cover. It
would be wrong to say she lost a bet in order to appear on the cover. It
would also be wrong to suggest she lost an arm wrestling match. Let’s
just say, it wasn’t easy! Read about what makes this Court of Appeal
judge tick starting at page 337.
