LWQuoting Cases in the exam

We were told that you do not need to know the case name. Of course it will help, but it is the ratio decidendi that earns you the mark. In such a situation you can start your sentence "In a decided case...".

e.g. In a decided case it was held that the display of goods in a shop display is not an offer. It is merely an invitaion to treat.

Hope that helps.

but nice if you can quote the case name - even just one of the parties - "In Bell's case "

but nice if you can quote the case name - even just one of the parties - "In Bell's case " or "In the flick knife case..." but "in a decided case ...." is sufficient

It is really helpful information. At first, I think i need to quote full case name such as "Fisher v Bell". In stead, i can just say "In decided case...". It is hard to quote full case name because I can't remember some of them even i can remember the case scenarios.
