Sir Samuel Griffith was undoubtedly the instigator of some of the greatest law reform moments in Queensland history. This lecture attempts to capture the most significant pieces of law reform for which he was singularly responsible for more than a quarter of a century.

The range of subjects include both civil and criminal law, substantive law and procedural law with a view to identifying what was innovative and, at times, audacious.

About the speaker:
The Hon Justice David Jackson began his career in law when he was admitted as a barrister of the Supreme Court of Queensland in 1977. In 1990 his Honour was appointed Queen’s Counsel. Justice Jackson previously served as a member of the Supreme Court Library Committee and chaired the Queensland Law Reform Commission between 2014 and 2020. His Honour has been a judge of the Supreme Court of Queensland since 2012.
