  1. I agree that it wasn’t difficult work to ask the constructor to get the wall to the desired length. But in the case of the swimming pool, if they had increased the depth from above, the depth would have also increased of the part of the swimming pool which had the desired length of 1 meter. So I think it wasn’t fixable without starting all over again.

    Did both parties get any compensation for their lost desirable lengths along with the reduced cost??

  2. Hi!
    just confirming that I do not need to know the cases for the exam, just the principle? I will not be asked or be expected to quote specific cases? Pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeease say I don’t have to!!!!!!
    BTW, your lectures are great!

    • You’re right to confirm – and I repeat, yet again, there is now no need to know case names for the F4 exam neither CBE nor paper based.

      It’s a great pity because they were so much fun

      However, they’re still relevant in that the stories are quite memorable and, in themselves, they help to remember the law

  4. Hi,

    I can’t view the lecture.. please help me!

  5. Mr Mike, I guess you got the plaintiff and defendant wrong in the case of C & P Haulage v Middleton. Because Wikipedia (even though not a very reliable source) says it was Middleton who sued and lost the case. Am I wrong?

    • Hi – probably not – I’m honestly not bothered whether it was won in theCourt of First Instance, the Court of Appeal, the Supreme Court nor even in the Ecclesiastical Court! IT DOESN’T MATTER!!!! All you need for F4 is to know the principle of law. And if you write in the exam that C&P sued Middleton ….. do you really think that a marker is going to fail to give you a mark?

      I’m grateful that you pointed it out to me, I’m very happy that you have been enthused sufficiently for you to look it up on Wikipedia, and I’m growing in confidence by the minute that you will sail through your F4 in December. I seem to remember saying in at least one recording that the “facts” that I tell students could very well be quite different than the actual facts of the case. But, in F4, the facts are almost completely irrelevant – it’s always the principle that is to be remembered

  6. Thanks alot for the lectures. Previous time, I was studying by myself and I couldn’t finish Contract Law since there were so many cases and so many things to remember. But thanks to Opentution I understood the area Contract Law.

    • That’s a good point – I like it. However, the builder could always employ someone to finish the job. Besides, it wasn’t the quality of the work that was at issue – it was the finished object that was the complaint so I’m not sure about the validity of your “personal services” point
