Leaves to Intervene Granted in SOCAN Previews Case

The Supreme Court of Canada has today June 10, 2011 granted leave to intervene to the four parties that so requested, namely CIPPIC, CAUT, Federation of Law Societies et al, and the Computer and Communications Industry Association.

The Court has, somewhat unusually, limited each of the interveners to a factum of no more than 10 pages in length. The usual length permitted is 20 pages.

As usual, requests to present oral arguments have been deferred.
