Dean, Professor of Law
|
Dean Epps has been a frequent speaker on Evidence and Advocacy, both domestically and internationally. In June of 2007, Dean Epps traveled to London as the only law professor member of a nine-person American team which provided training to Sudanese lawyers representing victims of the Darfur crisis. The training included substantive International Criminal Law, with special focus on practice before the International Criminal Court, as well as Evidence and Advocacy. In 2005 and 2006, along with Temple Law School Professor Edward Ohlbaum, Dean Epps taught Jury Trial Advocacy to 20,000+ members of the Japanese Bar Association. These programs were offered in anticipation of the 2009 re-institution of jury trials in criminal cases in Japan.
In 2003, Dean Epps joined other international faculty to teach advocacy skills to prosecutors at the United Nation's ICTR (International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda) in Arusha, Tanzania. Professor Epps has also taught courses in advocacy in Beijing, China to Chinese lawyers enrolled in Temple's LL.M. program and to the Beijing Supreme People's Procuratorate (the Chinese Prosecutor's Office). Domestically, she was a presenter at "Trial Evidence in the Federal Courts" in New York in March 2007, "Witness Preparation" in Los Angeles, CA in April 2006, and she moderated panels on "Public Speaking" (Hawaii, 2006) and "Prosecutorial Discretion" (Philadelphia, 2007). more...
