REVISE LOTSSSS :biggrin:

you basically need to know mens rea, actus reus and causation really well... and sentencing (range of it) and possibly transferred malice.
work on learning the cases!!
for the torte... just look at negligence- duty of care, dangerous and breach of duty- as long as you know that off the top off your head u shud be fine.
also damages and res ipsa loquitur... track system and probs procedure before trial xx

Thanks ChilledBean. Have you already sat this exam?

How did it go???????

think it went really well, answered all the questions in as much detail as i can :biggrin:

only thing i forgot was the causation in fact, multiple causes (barker v corus and fairchild glenhaven something something) and intervening acts :frown:

only remembered the barnett v chelsea one so i guess it's ok!

thought the case studies were completely stupid though.

Thought the first two questions on criminal and contract were great, hopefully done well. The contract case study was just ridiculous, never seen one like that - especially as there are no acceptance cases for emails. Could go either way i think.

What offence did everyone put for the incident with the digger? Assault or battery?

My law teacher said they were getting rid of a question but I thought they'd just merge the last two for each section - I think I might have done ok in the criminal section but arghhh damages 8 marks up from 5 :/

I put battery because he applied force but didn't cause any injury :s-smilie:

I put battery, but explained why assualt COULD be used in some aspects. I thought the exam was pretty easy/fair.

I put that he intended to assault him which ultimately resulted in the battery.

I put both, it didn't seem limited in the question. Assault for intending to scare him and Battery when he was reckless in catching him.
