I simply don't have time, heh... and I'm already tutoring a computer science subject.

1) Identify the subject of the question (e.g. what the rule of law is).
2) Take a critical position; don't sit on the fence unless you can do it really well.
3) Interpret the case within the context of the question to substantiate your argument.
I've typed up one of my extended responses for you. [<a href="/james/Damjanovic%20v%20Maley%20-%20Rule%20of%20Law.pdf">download</a>]
When I read it now, it doesn't appear to be very good, but I suppose it is an example of the standard expected of first-year students.
The "less than 20 lines" instruction really just means "don't write more than you can reasonably fit on this page". See above example.
Strictly speaking, the 'ruling' in Cooper v Stuart regarding the settlement of NSW does not form part of the ratio of the case. This is because the determination wasn't necessary for the decision. However, unanimous agreement on an issue by the justices (or lords) of the highest court in the land is generally accepted to be ratio material anyway. Mabo (No. 2) abolished the doctrine of terra nullius.Originally posted by Newbie
it upheld terra nullius til mabo man came i think ?

Sorry about my last post, I was in a state of debatable sobriety. There is no such thing as TAFELaw.
Heh, I remember asking that.
Arguments founded on public policy do not specifically involve matters of law, but relate to overarching concerns which the advocate believes the Court should weigh up when making its decision. For example... one might argue that allowing the plaintiff to succeed in this case would 'open the floodgates' for litigation, outweighing the benefit of providing a remedy.
See the following page for a great overview of the main types of policy arguments:

hey newb.... let me noe when u get the actual case we're suppose to prepare... judging the questionable concern of prof. esperraga on the welfare of his class... im not too sure whether hes even aware we're suppose to get the case a week ahead...
by the way... asq/laz... did all the law classes do the test at the same time last yr... cos if they dont dosnt that mean ppl can just rip the questions off others if they do it later and prepare them beforehand...

No. There are differences between the class tests. You can liken it to there being a set of 50 possible questions that could potentially be asked on the test, and then each class test randomly posing 10 of them. (Actual numbers may vary.)
However, if you prepare answers for most of the questions in that original set, chances are you'll cover most of the questions in your test anyway.
