case law

Bbelnasblack15y ago
hi , i would like to know , when mentioning cases in our answers, is it mandatory to give a brief description of the case which the book described specifically or we could give a banal example for explanation...thx..

I cannot imagine you ever having to give case details. All you need to do is state a principle of law and the quote the illustrative case name ( in brackets )

ok am asking because at uni they told us to give a brief explanation to illustrate the case law..because sometimes the cases are vague that's why..

Imagine how much you can write in 13 minutes ( 18 minutes per question - 5 minutes planning time ). Now, how much time do you have to start giving details of cases when you have 9 other points to chase?

ok then...another question , do you have tips to answer problem solving questions ?

Read the F4 exam technique article on this site ( and the general exam technique article too )
