    when judges want to sue

    ok so random thought, if a judge wants to sue someone, would they hire a lawyer or would they represent themselves and quote themselves as authority? in a similar vein, when Kirby J retires can he go back to being a barrister and if so will he just quote himself as authority and tell whichever...

    when i worked at a clc everyone wore casual attire and so one day i decided to rock up in denim shorts, t-shirt, and beach thongs - it's not like the clients on the phone could see me!

    Electronically Assisted Research

    i guess it's because, with a lot of universities, they teach everything you need to know about legal research (i.e. how to use westlaw, lexis nexis etc) during the first few weeks of law school in a single library session, after which most of the students just do a brain dump since it's not like...

    the conclusion of every glorious moot should be celebrated by getting together with all your learned friends and having a massive orgy in the moot court. hot judges are also to participate: brings new meaning to "may it please your honour" and "submitting" to the court.

    The 'Law Students' Lounge

    sure dude, you'd actually be surprised that a lot of law students, myself included, came from a maths/science background (physics chem adv maths etc) and therefore had quite mediocre writing ability. in fact, doing physics and chem helped me a lot with law. a lot of people i know who are doing...

    What do you hate about law students?

    question: if you've been selected for a spot in an external moot team (one which is not as schmick as jessup), does this give you a good chance of getting a clerkship even if your marks are plain average?

    What do you hate about law students?

    that is true. i thought it was absolute rubbish. until i picked up a law report and the landmark case i was looking for had been torn out. there were scathing messages of insult on the adjacent pages to whoever was responsible. it's just unconscionable.
