    Difficulty of Elective Subjects

    over here there are definitely some electives that are really difficult, perhaps more difficult than core subjects. unjust enrichment is one of them. constitutional problems is another. equity is relatively easy here, perhaps because we have lovely lecturers - that might be another factor to...

    Should we have specialist courts for domestic violence and sexual assault cases?

    yeah, establishing a separate court system might be a bit taxing on resources even though it'd be one of the best things that could happen. about training for the magistrates, the report says that magistrates are afraid to intervene during cross-examination for fear of appeals. what if they...
