AQA LAW 04 22nd June 2012

So does anybody have any idea which of the section C questions are likely to come up?
We've learnt (i say learnt... but in reality, we haven't) Morals, Justice, and Fault..

Also, Who else is doing TORT and not Criminal for this exam?

I'll see if i have a Vicarious Liability structure for whoever requested one..

I'm doing tort!

I need help majorly my teacher has been appauling!

Basically you know with regards to general negligence, do you need to know that? Or can you just get by on knowing Psychatric Damage, Medical Negligence, Economic Loss, Nuisance and Product Liability?

Thanks. Also any notes on tort will be much appreciated!

Yeah, i've only found two. I'm sure i've heard there's three, could be wrong though

On another note, is this thread just for criminal?
Because i'm doing tort, and I really need the structure for answering vicarious liability, if anybody has one by chance, I would be grateful.

VICARIOUS LIABILITY WRITING FRAME D= Defendant, X= Employee that committed tort

The Defendant could be liable under the area of law known as Vicarious Liability.
This is liability imposed on a party for torts committed by others.
For D to be held vicariously liable for the tort of X, it must first be established that X is an employee.

Firstly we apply the control test.
If D has control over the work done by X, as well as controlling hours worked and powers of dismissal, X is more likely to be an employee.
In this case, because D has control over the work done by X, as well as X's hours and D also has the power to dismiss X, X is more likely to be an employee.

Due to the specialized nature of many jobs, we must also apply the Economic Reality Test (Ready Mixed Concrete).
Here we need to establish whether there is a contract of employment between D and X. If X receives a regular salary where D is responsible for tax and national insurance payments, it is more likely that X is an employee.
If however, X is paid in a lump sum and responsible for his own tax and national insurance payments, providing his own tools and responsible for hiring staff, it is more likely that X is an independent contractor and therefore not an employee.

Thats just the first bit for Vicarious Liability. Hope this helps !

I hope law and Morals or Judicial Creativity comes up do you have a case for the Utilitarian view of as long as it suits the majority (a negative view that is) for in the Law and Justice.

What is the likelyhood of fault coming up for Section C? Because I'm only going to learn fault, it's a risk i'm taking.

Guys what offences shall I prioritise to revise?

I've just had a business exam today so Havn't done huge amounts of revision for law, but I know theft inside out so far, which seems to be the hardest offence.

Same how did business go for u
