The article also explores other considerations in equity that might apply when a court is faced with an argument that a time-bar is a penalty.<\/p>\n To purchase this article, complete the Individual Article Sale<\/a> order form and email it to tlranz.journal.orders@thomsonreuters.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n Building bridges in the classroom: A view from the academy <\/b><\/em><\/a>\u00e2\u20ac\u201c <\/i>Matthew Bell, Dr Paula Gerber and Dr Phil Evans<\/p>\n Over the past two decades, the rise of specialist practice in the area of construction law has led to \u00e2\u20ac\u201c and been fostered by \u00e2\u20ac\u201c a proliferation in construction law teaching.
