Hello
In F4 cbe , can they ask about specific cases? e.g what was decision in Harvey v Facey 1893?
Here’s an extract from the ACCA F4 syllabus
“NOTE ON CASE LAW
Candidates should support their answers on the paper-based multi-task questions with analysis referring to cases or examples. There is no need to detail the facts of the case. Remember, it is the point of law that the case establishes that is important, although knowing the facts of cases can be helpful as sometimes questions include scenarios based on well-known cases. Further it is not necessary to quote section numbers of Acts.”
Now, you’ll see specific reference to the paper-based variant and no reference to the cbe
This suggests to me that a question in cbe about a decision in a specified case is highly improbable. In fact, so improbable that you could discount the possibility completely
OK?
