First Year Law

Hi
I'm looking for a case. It is DPP v. Maceoin 1978 IR 27 but I cannot find the case, it is mentioned i few places but nothing more than that. Can anyone help?

I'm not on my laptop atm but have you tried the usual sites? Justis, westlaw, baili? You should be able to find it unless it's unreported which by the looks of the citation it's not.

The library law page will have all those sites except baili which you can just google :-)

thanks I will check them now, I just didn't have a clue on where to look for that

Paczini

Well.. I still can't find it but I have a clue what it is about now

What have you used to look it up?
That should be an easy enough one to find!

Const or contract?

Paczini

I think both, I tried basically everything but more than likely I don't know how to look

You should get classes on that soon enough! You'll be fine!

Paczini

classes on research?

Paczini

and that website you told me about, Westlaw, it requires username and a password

Yup, you' should get one or two classes just going through the basics of the different online resources.
Well we did anyway.

Sign in through the library page and westlaw should work!!

I'll try it later, any tips on quickly getting through the reading list for sociology?

I didn't until January (and that was only about half the readings!)... :-D

I don't want to leave everything for the last minute so I try to do everything as I'm going along with the cours but I have to admit that they are quite boring

I got 2.1s easily despite it!

But ignore me, I'm a bad influence when it comes to Sociology! :P
You should probably stay on top but don't kill yourself if you miss something once or twice either

Paczini

Well, I will do as much as I can (well.. at least the minimum) I have to have some time for a social life, don't I?

How so Joe

You're a first year, right? Did you get your hands on a copy of the Golden Thread? I think actually finding case law is the one thing we missed this year. But MCRbaby did a good job of explaining it - library.nuim.ie -> electronic resources -> databases and ebooks -> a-z list.

Also, DPP v MacEoin is attached to this post. But you're better off getting them yourself. I had a two minute look for this - it's on Justis, that was the first I checked.

I think last years student survival guide had something on it that I'm sure could be stolen and added into an edition!

I'm still available to write something if you want btw!

I am in First year and Unfortunately I didn't

I will look again now for that case, if I won't find it I will then look at the attachment, thanks a lot for all the help

Paczini

I have it now, I know why I couldn't find it now, Problem with access to the websites because I didn't log in to the library page.

Thanks so much for all your help
