Course Description
This course teaches students about the case law, statutes, principles and rules applicable to the common law system, in general, and more specifically those adopted in England and Wales. The importance of learning about the law in this way is due to fact that in common law jurisdictions, lawyers rely on these laws, rules and principles to argue cases before the courts, and judges base their conclusions and judgments on the very same factors.
This course is designed to provide those who have never studied law before with an opportunity to learn about the law, or for law students who wish to revise for exams or carry out further legal studies (i.e. for exams).
