primary victims
simmons v british steel - employer liable for all damage in a work placement

page v smith - as long as physical injury is reasonably foreseeable then claimant can claim for personal injury even though personal injury was not foreseeable

white v cc of south yorkshire - must be in personal danger, otherwise they are bystanders.

secondary victims
alcock v cc south yorkshire - not in danger but witnessed the event or were in the immediate aftermath

alcock rules - close tie of love and affection - bourhill v young - bystandars are unlikely to claim.

Proximity - mcloughlin v o'brian - must be at the scene or in its immediate aftermath

must have witnessed the incident with your own unaided senses.

Injury must be caused by sudden shock - sion v hampstead health authority.

I am actually dreading this exam, I feel like I've barely done anything on concepts :/ ah well, at least I only need a B for Uni as an A in this one isn't likely...

worrying about law thoo because i need 86/100 to get in uni on this exam!

Just did a past paper in which on the a) bit of a scenario I had to talk about theft, robbery, criminal damage & aggarvated criminal damage AND duress in 25 minutes. I only got up to robbery and then 25 minutes was up. :frown:

I have the exact same problem, although I do tort.
The time given is annoying.

If you have 10 minutes left and you're nowhere near done, bullet point. Trust me, I did that when I ran out of time in Unit 3 and I got 85/100, because it helps to have the content and application there rather than not at all. Also, the chief examiner says you should be able to do theft in 12 minutes, and it's true, you can. My law teacher went to a big meeting with the examiners and that's what she said, and then she timed us to do theft.

How can you do theft in 12 minutes? There is so much to write about...
Wow by writing theft in 12 minutes this would definitely save me some time! Do we need to not go into full detail?

What are you actually talking about in your theft answer? If you let me know that I can tell you what you don't need to include :smile:
