[Mz_mE]

i guess thats 12/15 for me.. with a possibility of 14/15 if Q14 is legal and if Q15 is international.. got Q12 completely wrong.. stupid me

------------------------------

Common law changes with society, so can statue. Common law changes with society because judges/mag take into consideration current social climate when making decisions, and therefore a precedent.

Personally I put B, but it appears there is more agreement with C.

 

[Jago]

no, i meant i thought that torts were only private.

Edit: for 13 i put C

 

[Mz_mE]

b for common law can ONLY be changed by statute? u just said that judges hav ability to make law.. they arent statutes..

 

[ameradrian]

Judges have the ability to make laws.

With regards to 13, common law is changed, in a sense, when a more recent common law precedent is made that contradicts the older one. Thus common law can change it self.

How about D

 

[aliasfan]

no because the jury decides the guilt or not guilty of the offender... you are guilty or not guilty, not innocent

 

[koukla]

How about D

hmmm do u study legal at all? a jury is used in criminal proceding to determen innocence or guilt, have u never seen a case study that is civil? e.g. donoghue vs stevenson

 

[Jago]

jury doesn't have to be present in cases.

 

[cimbom]

... I put B for 14. Denying him his economic rights, right?

Like isn't C, legal, too general? They say ANOTHER country, country X, you don't know whether or not the right to be a member of a trade union is enforceable by law wherever 'chris' is.

Definitely not A, don't think it was D either.

ohhh yeaq, sorry read judge.. well maybe a? but i'm just saying it cant be c cuz common law cant adapt to change easily... N no need to be furious, if i didnt study legal do u think i would be on this forum discussing

 

[Mz_mE]

Q2 says which of the following is NOT a widely recognised element of human rights.. does that mean which is completely not an element of human rights.. for example b.. culturally specific.. or does it mean which is not widely known that it is actually an element?all the questions become tricky after u read them a few times..

 

[Mellonie]

I was told by a Legal Senior Marker at my school that 14 was (B) and 15 (D). But she hadn't had the paper that long. Still, torts are definitely, and as the question states, commonly, both public and private; my textbook says it too.

isnt tort privvate law? thats what my notes say :s

 

[aliasfan]

someone get the answers!!! then the disputes can be settled

 

[gorgo31]

Tort can be private, but at the same time public. Example I was told by Senior Marker was Industrial Manslaughter, which is a criminal tort of negligence.

ohh yerr... i guess so yea? but then also international law could also fit.. cuz isnt it applied in decisions through out our system.. like no one can be treated inhumanely in criminal system...

i dont know just thinkin about it

 

[Mz_mE]

now that i think about it.. i guess tort can be public.. if tort can be negligence.. driving accidents.. stuff like that.. or am i makin stuff up again?
