The Court of Appeal of Ontario and Pro Bono Ontario have announced that Pro Bono Ontario’s Amicus program will once again be running at the Court of Appeal.

As part of the re-launched Amicus program, lawyers volunteering with Pro Bono Ontario “will act as duty counsel and appear as amicus curiae, or ‘friends of the court’, on a pro bono (free) basis”. This service will be available to self-represented litigants at Ontario’s Court of Appeal on Wednesdays.
