CHILDREN AND THE LAW

Often treated as a subtopic within family law, this area dealing with legal minors is actually

somewhat broader and has connections with criminal law and tort inter alia. In an environment

that is becoming more sensitive to the legal rights of children, this is increasingly becoming a

more active area of research and litigation. Related topics: ABORIGINAL LAW, ADOPTION,

CRIMINAL LAW, DIVORCE, EDUCATION LAW, FAMILY LAW, HUMAN RIGHTS AND

THE CHARTER OF RIGHTS AND FREEDOMS, TORTS, YOUNG OFFENDERS.

JEUNESSE

Ce domaine regroupe l’ensemble des questions juridiques de la jeunesse au plan civil, ce qui

comprend les divers régimes de protection. Certains aspects sont évidemment abordés avec le

droit de la FAMILLE ou de la personne. L’aspect CRIMINEL ou pénal est abordé sous JEUNES

CONTREVENANTS.
