Yh there's isn't much content for criminal courts and lay people.
For question 17 I wasn't too sure what to write, so I just wrote anything that I could think of in relation to a magistrate!

The key for getting into the 9s and 10s for that was referring cases, statistics or statues.

For juries there was: Gregory v UK (ECHR), Bushell's Case, Magna Carta 1215, Blythe, Pointing.

For Maggies: mainly statistics and reports.

If you have answers the question fully will the examiner ever give you 10/10 marks

Yeah. As long as you've loaded your answer with the bare requirements for the initial Sound, and had good development and enhancements etc.

it's not like you can get marked down for discussing disadvantages when the question asked only for advantages is it?
they'll just mark the advantages part, no big deal

True. But its probably just that you've wrote about disadvantages when you could be gaining more marks talking about other advantages.

I messed up on the green paper, I put the example as the service and legal act 1990 instead of the civil and legal service act.. Will I lose marks?

Reply 92

For the literal rule I outlined what it is and gave three full examples, would this be 10 marks?

Maybe/maybe not.

Did you include that the word is given the same meaning throughout the Act and that the definition used is the (Oxford English) dictionary definition at the time the Act was passed?

These two show up under the enhancement criteria.

You could also include lord Esher's statement about the literal rule

Also when talking about the law making process I talked about all orders of readings however I didn't state that these take place in the commons? I assumed that the reader already knows it takes part in commons because I talked about lords amendments would I still get full mark?
