Thrilled to share that my paper Rowing Upstream: An Analysis of Rowbotham Applications as an Inadequate Stopgap Measure for Accessing State-Funded Representation is now published on @CanLII as part of the Windsor Review of Legal and Social Issues @WRLSI @WindsorLaw ! 🚣⚖️

[Sakithyan "Sai" Bala @sakithyanbala]

The paper argues that while Rowbotham applications are a critical last resort for those denied legal aid, they highlight deep failings in Canada’s legal aid system. Restrictive criteria and complex demands call for urgent reform to achieve true equity, A2J, and fair trial rights.
