Today! Special guest Patrick Lyons (@PLyons_16) brings us the 2006 SCC decision of Childs v Desormeaux where the SCC discusses social host liability in the context of a drunk guest at a house party. Before special guest Patrick brings you the decision, Zach and Karly chat 1L torts, proximity, duty of care, the law adjusting over time & adjusting to our lives as newly minted counsel.
