Does any know what is the authority for the point that successive squatters may accrue the requisite time period for adverse possession? I have it in my notes, but I have nothing to back it up.

Excellent. Thanks very much. I think I recall seeing a past paper question where this was a relevant issue.

What I have on this is, first, a 'regulatory act' is not defined in the Treaties. Second, Inuit v Parliament and Council says it is "any act of general application not being a legislative act" (paraphrased) and, further, it must not not require implementing measures. So a regulatory act is an administrative act (i.e. a delegated act or implementing act).

Thanks!! Don't actually know why I am so confused.. Might have to to skip this chapter for a while and come back to it..

In Property, Im assuming that Civil Partners can apply for appropriation of the family home under s56? Am I right with this?

Also, does anyone know if there is need to mention the upcoming same sex marriage ref if doing a qs on Family Home Protection? Does it afford any further rights to people in this area or is it just purely marriage?

Thanks.

Yes, you're right with that. I just checked (section 70 of the 2010 Act amends it).

Good question about the marriage equality referendum. I haven't looked at it but I think it would have to entail equal rights for family home protection.

Not expecting to pass that one a whole lot of "I know the answer is yes, you can, but can't give you any law or legislation to back that up"

I think the grand total of my answer to the Alpha Ltd Beta Ltd question was "yes, you're entitled to damages and yes, you can probably end the contract if you want". No discussion of fundamental breach, keeping the contract and suing for damages etc etc (i.e. any of the actual answer!!!!)

Two questions I was happy with. Three that were definitely "here is the probable answer, but I can't give you any case law/the sale of goods acts said so!

He wasn't allowed the damn rugby ball back, was he?

I went with Section 12 of the 1893 act. Couldn't get much more than like a page out of it. And he could sue yer one for fraudulent misrepresentation?!?!

Anyone do the damages for performance one? What else did you put apart from Anglia v Reed?

Was that exclusion clause allowed? I said she accepted it by signing the thing but they couldn't contract out of negligence.

No fecking idea where I got that from!

Last time around, I think it was 6 weeks from the last exam, so this time around that would make it 1 May (or thereabouts).

Early May is what I've heard

Its the standard form contracts I think, she agreed to their terms by signing THEIR form as opposed to using a form with their T&Cs

Hey guys don't worry too much about the problem questions in contract.I remember came to a totally conclusion to my friend in two of the problems q! And we both passed!! As long as you backed up your point you will be fine. On top of it all, the examiner is nice marker. Onwards !

Anyone have any 2014/13 EU past papers please (and sample answers/examiner reports)?? Really freaking out and think i just need to look how it's applied!

spaz_hawk

Not to dwell on it or anything but was that contract exam not quite surprising in some respects to everyone else? I didn't bother preparing the Uberimmae Fideis contracts of insurance but the other option I think was Non Es Factum, didn't see that coming at all!

I was happy enough with it. Got 5 questions anyway. How well they were answered is another matter!

Does anyone want to help me prioritise my list for today. I know that I'm not going to get it all done so I'm trying to organise it by importance instead of my current system of least amount of pages in the manual!

I already have Finding, Succession, Adverse Possession and Registration done so these are what's left for me:
Co-Ownership
Heriditaments
Family Property
Licences
Mortgages
Tenancies

Or if you reckon I should do a different topic instead I can take suggestions! :-)

Agree with this. As long as you can spot the issues in Contract problem questions and make a halfway decent effort at getting across why they are significant then you should be able to rack up enough marks to pass
