Hello, I wish to take CBE version of F4 (ENG)
I want to ask that for e.g there is a law of contributory negligence i.e Court may reduce amount of damages paid to claimant if defendant proves that claimant contributed to his own injury or loss…. and their a case Sayers vs Harlow , which is based on this law. .
So basically if I have learned the law of contributory negligence , then their is no need of reading or learning the case Sayvers v Harlow na?? Am i right or wrong?You’re correct – there is no need
What I WILL say, however, is … rather than ‘learn’ the case of Sayers v Harlow, just reading the case brings the whole principle to life
You are like the vast majority of students that study law – you feel that it’s a buren – something troublesome that you have to find your way past
Why not try to view it as a series of interesting short stories, each with its own happy (mostly) ending
Can you not imagine Mrs Sayers standing on the toilet roll holder and it spinning and she falling to the ground? With apologies to Mrs Sayers, can you not see the funny side of a lady trapped in a cubicle in a public convenience and not having the patient (nor common sense!) to wait until someone heard her calls for help?
Look on these cases as parables of morality … they’re FUN!
🙂
