About David Cheifetz

David Cheifetz is an occasional author on legal topics usually of some relevance to litigator-practitioners and judges even if they're slow to realize it; a a long-time refugee from legal and moral jurisprudence and the "is-ought" dilemma; a longer-time reader of Lewis Carroll; and, a once-upon-a-time amateur hockey goalie with an odd pedigree. His blog, "The 4th Monkey", at http://www.davidcheifetz.ca, is where you'll now (usually) find his (some might say) overly analytical musings.
