    October 2015 I believe? So there's been 7 papers with the new examiner 😊

    You can tell. The reports and exams itself were a lot harder I think prior.

    Can someone please briefly explain the rule in Hastings-Bass?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 78 ✭✭nimcdona


    Would I be mad to ignore all injunctions bar Quia Timet and Anton Piller?

    I've struggled with the whole departures from the Campus Oils Principles bullsh*t since college and I don't want to waste the next 4 days wrapping my head around it again? It's such a dense area.

    I have 14 other topics covered:

    Quia Timet & AP
    Charitable Trusts
    Non-Charitable
    Cy-press
    Rectification
    Specific Performance
    Undue Influence
    Recission
    Satisfaction
    Trusteeship
    DMC
    Three Certainties
    Strong v Bird
    Advancement

    I'm leaving out mareva injunctions completely anyway and focusing on Quia timet
    not a fan of injunctions either so hoping to just have enough not to have to answer a question on it

    Contract

    Hey,

    For contract so far I have covered:

    Offer/ Acceptance
    Consideration/ Estoppel
    ITLR
    Capacity
    Uncertain Terms - ambiguous, illusory, etc
    Formal Requirements
    Express/ Implied terms
    Consumer Protection
    Interpretation - plain meaning. factual matrix, contra performa, no est factum, etc.
    Exemption and Exclusion clauses

    Going to get remedies, discharge, mistake & misrepresentation done today

    So basically think that leaves me with just duress, undue influence and & agency and privity - wondering if I can leave any of these out?

    Additionally, if I am missing anything from the above please let me know! :)

    Yeah I'm leaving out Mareva too.

    I reckon QT inj. are on the cards or maybe AP. (I know enough about Campus Oils etc to cover me for a QT question).

    Good chance it will be a regular interlocutory injunction Q too but if that's the case, hopefully I will have another question I can answer instead. The amount of cases, exceptions, departures etc just makes my brain hurt.

    I'm the same - I despise injunctions in general so i'm also relying on knowing enough that it can be avoided at all costs. QT's arent the worst, and there isnt a massive amount on AP either. Here's hoping we'll have enough anyway!

    Exactly - QTs and APs are lovely.

    Even if it does turn out to be an interlocutory Q, there are still 7 other questions on the paper to choose from!

    I'd rather put my time into backups than waste a huge amount of time on interlocutory injunctions when they might not even appear!

    Hi

    does anyone have EU sample answers that they can send me from 2016 onwards? I have other things to trade! please pm


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 78 ✭✭nimcdona


    Just struggling to get an answer for the essay on specific performance for personal services, could anyone give me a quick overview of what cases you'd be discussing if answering it please?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1 emilieburke22


    Hi there,
    Just wondering if anyone would happen to have a SOG ACT 1893 or updated which I could purchase. I am sitting contract and eu both thursday and friday and would greatly appreciate the ACT. I will be in Red Cow wednesday afternoon.

    I have both notes and sample answers I would be willing to trade.

    Thanks

    Contract


    Seems there is a lot of mixing so trying to cover all the important points - do you think I'm safe to leave out intention to create legal relations, illegal and void contracts and agency? I have everything else included


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 34 Olliepollie


    Equity

    Hi guys, does anyone for constructive trusts if an essay question comes up on "knowing assistance" am I to discuss Knowing Receipt and Dishonest Assistance as two separate and distinct areas, or as one area with all case law applying the same to Receipt and Assistance?

    They're separate areas in my manual but the examiner reports always talk about knowing assistance as involving all the cases for both areas... sorry if this is really convoluted, my brain is as confused as this post!

    Hey! It’s hard to know because she does mix questions but equally there is a decent choice on the exam.

    For ITLR, maybe know the basics of it? I’m leaving out illegal too, but going to do duress and undue influence I think


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 30 loosehead1973


    Hi Guys
    Does any of you kind souls have 2017 and 2018 past papers for Equity.
    TIA
    Gus


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 140 ✭✭sapphire309


    Feel like this has been asked before, but how mad would it be to leave out all of Competition law? I'm really running out of time and I just can't get my head around any of EU :( struggling big time. I am planning on leaving out competition, mergers, state aids, private international law (whatever that even is).

    I've also seen people refer to 'legislative procedures' - my manual doesn't have a chapter on that but what else would it include other than OLP and SLP?

    EU


    Hi guys

    Would someone mind telling me what came up in EU last time round? My grid doesn't go up that far - sigh.

    Thanks <3


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 110 ✭✭lisac223


    Hi guys,

    Do you think I will be okay with the following:

    AP Orders/Quia Timet/Interlocutory
    Constructive Trusts
    Purpose Trusts
    Charitable Trusts
    Constructive Trusts
    Resulting trusts (both automatic & presumed)
    Estoppel
    Rectification
    Three certainties
    Doc of satisfaction
    Trustees Duties

    Leaving out tracing, secret trusts, rescission, Mareva and mandatory injunctions.

    Is there anything ye think I should cover as well just in case?

    Thank you! :-)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 78 ✭✭sbbyrne


    Hey,

    Does anyone have the exam reports/sample answers for Equity 2017/2018? Thanks a mill!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 84 ✭✭Dliodoir2021


    CASSIS DI DIJON

    Can anyone tell me the relevance? I have a big mindmap done up and can't figure out which art to put it under!

    If anyone needs stuff for equity let me know!

    Looks good but maybe just know a few short topics like Strong v Bird, Advancement, Maxims in case there's one of those 3 part questions.

    You can learn those really quickly.

    It's not mad I'm doing it myself but it means you can't skip over stuff in the areas you are covering and that you're likely to be choosing your five from six questions, presuming you aren't doing the necessary detail for the case note.

    I completely left Conpetition Law out during my exam last sitting. The lecturer in the grind school I went to said that it is too much and only likely to come up once or maybe not even come up. She highly recommended leaving it out and focusing on everything else.
    In saying that, you have to cover everything else. People went crazy after the last sitting as the predicted topics didn't come up. I for once, had solid backup questions prepared and scrapped a 51! So my advice is to leave it out but do everything else with the exception of the case note!


    Constitutional: what did people think came up? Thoughts on the paper?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 36 Charles OCK


    Resulting trusts
    Estoppel
    Rectification
    Three certainties
    Doc of satisfaction
    Trustees Duties
    Mand/Interloc/QT/APO Injunctions
    Specific Performance
    Tracing
    DMC
    Strong v Bird
    Quistclose Trusts
    Advancement
    Recission/UI
    Election
    Cy-Pres


    Do you reckon that is enough to cover? I've been selective in my learning of some chapters. Leaving out Secret Trusts, the bulk of charitable trusts, Contructive Trusts.

    Any advice/insight appreciated!

    It's selling characteristics under art 34 indistinctly applicable rules where they could try defend it under mandatory requirements of general principles alcohol content 25% or below could not be advertised tried to say drinking culture lower alcoholic drinks more people will drink. Think it Germany was held to be a an infringement not sure though. Only doing contract until Thursday.

    Is it enough to do Institutions, Sol,Gen Principles,DE msl,Infringements and Prelim ref,FMG,FMW,JR,Comp law,Equality and citizenship. Also I am planning not looking at this until Thursday after contract so if anyone thinks I could cut something out or missing something please let me know.
    In the city college recommended predictions they say not to bother with Infringements or prelim ref but cover all comp law with SA and mergers which is a trek.
