Equitable Remedies

  • Class number: 2023
  • Term: Summer 2007
  • Instructor: Darren L. Hutchinson

This is an essential course for students interested in civil litigation. The course examines important theoretical problems relating to the structure, award and enforcement of equitable remedies, including injunctions, specific performance and restitution. The course affords students the opportunity to investigate questions of equity in a host of practice settings, including intellectual property, securities, bankruptcy, civil rights and contract litigation. The course also devotes a great deal of attention to examining the constitutional and public policy issues that arise in the context of designing remedies for governmental civil rights infringement. Finally, the course will consider, time permitting, the various 'equitable defenses' that litigants can raise to bar to reduce an award of equitable relief. Students who have taken Remedies (Law 748 ) are not eligible to receive credit for this course.
