    I thought it was ok, I got 5 handy enough. For Liam the drug user in Q5, was it an insanity defence? Intoxication not open as his intention not disputed?

    Is it not intoxication is available due to murder being a crime of specific intent?

    I put down aggravated burglary if it can be proved he entered with the knife on him!

    Majewski I think is the big one in specific and basic intent, using intoxication as a possible defence

    Ah that's smart, didn't think of that!!

    Also what did people discuss for Part A of Q1, ie Kevin shooting and killing Elaine 'by accident'?

    I'm just so paranoid I've barked up the wrong tree with some q's :eek:

    If he’s charged with Murder under section 4 he can run with Intoxication, Manslaughter no intoxication because recklessness is an element of the crime.. unless his intoxication was not self induced (spiked etc..)

    Ah yes same, not looking good for Adam!

    What did people have for question 4? I didn’t even have time for the fourth part as I had to start my fifth question.. I had the below:

    1) unlawful use of computer, deception, theft, false accounting

    2) possession of a syringe, assault with a syringe, would-be robbery but arrival of gardai made it attempt

    3) criminal damage, public disorder, threatening behaviour, burglary (??? Trespasser once asked to leave and committed criminal damage thereafter)

    What is a basic layout on an answer on judicial review? what topics would you cover?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 184 ✭✭Breacnua

    yes, keep the faith


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 434 ✭✭rightytighty

    Yeah it is but I said that because he didn’t dispute intending to kill it wouldn’t be viable, not even sure that’s correct it’s just what I said

    I think (hope) once you make a point with relevant law and back it up you should be fine??? Hopefully!!

    Judicial review is Locus Standi, Effects of Unconstitutionality, Justiciability, Mootness etc I think, I've only covered the first two


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 189 ✭✭Supermax1988

    Yeah. He is a very fair marker. I had pretty much the same when I sat Criminal. Once you get five answers down you always have a chance.

    Any one have any predictions for Company?

    Starting to panic I don't have enough done.

    I said intoxication - yes murder being specific intent.
    It was similar in ways to Celyn Eadon case which was decided before Christmas.

    I don't have time to do it so just gonna cover first 3, justiciavility you will have covered under SOP so you should be grand for it, really really hoping it will be a nice exam.

    1) Same but didn’t say false accounting

    2) Same but said it was a robbery as he got possession of the wallet

    3) Just put criminal damage for this one

    4) incitement to commit rape

    Company from what I remember always:

    2 q on directors duties (def 1 for sure anyway)

    1 q on charges

    1 q on limited liability or some of that intro stuff

    1 q on shareholders in some form either their protection or share transfer, protection up last time so maybe share transfer but 100% on that, see yourself, company is actually fine once you know core topics above

    I could be wrong but I don't think examinership or receivership was up last time so know both very well id say highly like may be up but def check last sitting paper, that's just all from memory

    Anyone sit the exam in Neptune? How was it handled?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 84 ✭✭bobbyness


    Hi All. First time using this forum. If anyone has up to date exam grids for fe1s (Preferably need contract and tort for upcoming exam)

    Anyone who has any and would be willing to share with me, send me a PM - It'd be much appreciated! (And if you have contract or tort this time round I'll get you a pre-exam coffee!)

    Thanks for any help!

    Much more chill than red cow, doesn’t feel like half as big a deal and there’s nowhere near as much panic etc

    I'm just so paranoid I've barked up the wrong tree with some q's :eek:

    I said novus actus interveniens, with Elaine as the victim possibly breaking the chain of causation for the criminal act [attempted suicide]. But it was a toss up between that and unlawful and dangerous manslaughter, I just didn't think any of the cases were of the same applicability there.
