Abstract: The canonical formalism of three dimensional gravity coupled with the Dirac field is considered. We introduce complex variables to simplify the Dirac brackets of canonical variables and examine the canonical structure of the theory. We discuss the reality conditions which guarantee the equivalence between the complex and real theory.
