In Brief

Family Law Sympos i um
for Dubl in
A public symposium "The Family
and the Law — Progress and
Projections", will take place at
Blackhall Place, Dublin, on
Saturday, October 10th.
This has been organised by the
Law Society's Public Relations
Committee to provide a fresh
assessment of Family Law as a
follow-up to the initial symposium
on the subject held at the Law
Society in October 1980.
Speakers for the event will
include Dr. Patrick Tub r i dy,
Consultant Psychiatrist; Mrs.
Maura Wall Murphy, Director,
Marriage Conciliation Service;
Senator Mary Robinson, S.C., and
Mr. Alan Shatter, T.D., Solicitor
and author of
Family Law in the
Republic of Ireland.
While the symposium is primarily
intended for the general public, it
is hoped that members of the
profession will attend as these
occas i ons provide
exce l l ent
opportunities for informal meetings
with representatives of organ-
isations interested in the subject
and the legal profession. Catering
arrangements will be facilitated if
solicitors planning to attend will
advise the office of the Director of
Professional Services as soon as
possible.

Dear Sirs,
As part of its service to the
business community, the Goethe
Institute is proposing to offer in
Autumn 1987 a course
"German
for L awy e r s ".
This is a
continuation of a course which
was conducted in Spring 1987,
and which was found most useful
by most
pa r t i c i pan t s.
The
emphasis of the course is on the
development of reading skills for
legal texts, such as contracts,
leases and court documentation,
and the reading and formulation of
legal correspondence t h r ough
German. Useful vocabulary lists are
also supplied as part of the course,
including stock phrases which
appear frequently in correspon-
dence. The Institute recommends
that anyone participating in the
course should have approximately
t wo years knowledge of German.
The course is scheduled to take
place on Wednesday evenings,
6.00 — 7.45. Anyone interested
should direct their enquiries to
Marika Dunne at the Institute, or to
the undersigned.
Brendan Heneghan,
