The first question I definitely answered wrong I started talking about SOP and Art 15, can’t believe I wasted so much time stressing about the seminar cases and didn’t focus on my original topics

I think SOP was applicable. It would be a gov body dictating to the judiciary so you would get marks there I think.

Case Note question was the hero I never thought it would be. I take back everything I ever said about them.

Honestly same! Only for it I really would've been struggling for 5th Q

Oops I missed that!

Just went deep in fair procedures then also compared with Law Soc v Carroll ie they didn't have the power to strike off a solicitor so this Committee may not have the power to strike off Chris?

Thought this was one of my better questions and I didn’t know about article 37.1 and Law Soc case fml

Did anyone attempt the question on the delayed proceedings on the assault charge! (Can’t remember the rest of the facts)

Iconic10

literally none of the topics i expected to appear came up and the small amount chapters i left out did. it really threw me when i saw no family, equality, religion, interpretation AG or anything that was in his seminar

On Equity undue influence
Can someone explain how Clarke J in Ulster v Roche & Buttimer did not fully agree with decision in Etrige? was it on the steps the banks need to take?

My computer crashed randomly in the exam (my ****ty computer’s fault not better examinations). I logged straight back in but do I need to email the law society to tell them this?

What did you address as the issues I literally winged it

LawStudent999

Thought a few questions were fair but struggled with the Vet question. Took the angle of questioning the power of the committee in line with the law society solicitors case and M v. Medical. Other than that I thought the paper was fair but missing a few expected topics

Aye I did, used 4 or 5 cases on delay. Also brought in Garda duty to seek and preserve evidence because Gardai failed to get evidence from the witness.

Did everyone get 3.5 hours for the exam?

Chris the vet question - was I wrong in advising Chris firstly on whether the tribunal/board came within article 37.1? I went onto to talk about fair procedures after but idk why I felt the need to talk about whether its a a board within 37 meaning

Same

Same here! I kept reading that Q thinking there must be some other issue in this, but went with delay and duty to seek out and preserve and the role of the trial judge in these areas

ruby1998

I did association assembly and included expression because it referred to media attention so the duty of the press to report on matters in the public interest, then said it may be a vague offence, and then property rights because of the fee involved

For the vet I said A37, then A34 and Gilchrist bc there was something about a redacted name, fair procedures and livelihood.

The disease case did Cityview, liberty, the S v HSE case and Enhorn, then for some reason threw in about habeas corpus and how this would not be open to her bc of the really high threshold in recent cases and her detention was not unlawful

I can't remember what else I even did now haha melted

Ya I had no issues with the exam software, I actually think I got an extra min, I looked at the clock toward the end and it was red and said like 00.36 so I had a quick scan through one of my questions

I waffled an unholy amount in this - could be very wrong but I talked about excessive delegation on the legislature side bringing in leontajava etc that they cant further delegate it

Was this question not very similar to DPP v CC?

lawgrad49

Went into that paper with the plan of doing all three essays and oh how that changed! Think the problem questions were fair and you could pick out the issues okay but judicial immunity and ECHR is so left field, given all the other topics he omitted.

Very surprised he omitted Friends of the Irish Environment or even an essay on derived rights.

That paper probably just emphasises how broad a course it really is.

Company

Restriction --- La Moselle Clothing is this an absolute test whereby the director must satisfy all elements to be subject to a restriction order? Or just 1 of the elements?

Same here I said the minister power to enact the regulations was unconstitutional and breach of Art 15.2.1 but I don’t know if that’s right

well, they’re just factors to be taken into account, so i guess neither? as in, a court would probably want to satisfy more than one. it’s at the discretion of the judge so wouldn’t need to satisfy them all.
