Prima Facie in Nürnberg

This event in Nürnberg takes its name from the Latin legal term *prima facie*, meaning "at first sight" or "based on first impression." In legal contexts, it refers to evidence that, unless rebutted, is sufficient to prove a particular proposition or fact. The concept is central to many legal proceedings, where a prima facie case must be established before a trial can proceed.

Attendees can expect an evening that explores this foundational legal principle, likely through performance or discussion. The event draws on the term's rich history in both law and philosophy, where it has been used to describe obligations that may yield to more pressing duties. It offers a chance to engage with ideas that shape how justice is pursued in courtrooms and beyond.
