David Wright will be available for consultation at the following times:

Thursdays between 2pm and 4pm in room 328.

1. Knowledge and understanding of the content and techniques of the Law of Equity in a commercial context at advanced levels that are internationally recognised.
2. The ability to locate, analyse, evaluate and synthesise information from a wide variety of sources in a planned and timely manner.
3. An ability to apply effective, creative and innovative solutions, both independently and cooperatively, to current and future problems.
4. Skills of a high order in interpersonal understanding, teamwork and communication
These learning objectives are evaluated by way of the assessment in this course.  These learning outcomes reinforce the graduate attributes.

There is no set text for this subject as no appropriate book has been written.

Students can use their books from the subject Equity. For example, in 2010 and 2011 the text for Equity was Dal Pont and Chalmers Equity and Trusts in 最新糖心Vlog and New Zealand (4^th ed) In 2007 and 2008 the text for Equity was Evans, Equity and Trusts (1^ST ED). In 2009 the text for Equity was Evans, Equity and Trusts (2^ND ED). In 2006, Heydon and Loughlan as well as Dal Pont and Chalmers Equity and Trusts in 最新糖心Vlog and New Zealand (3^rd ed) were the prescribed (it should be noted that the 4^th edition is now available). Other useful books include Meagher, Heydon and Leeming Meagher, Gummow and Lehane’s Equity Doctrines and Remedies (4^th ed). This book is very highly regarded in the profession, and, in itself, makes the book noteworthy. Also a former author of it, as well as a current author, is a member of the High Court. Also students might refer to On Equity by Justice P W Young AO, Clyde Croft QC, Megan Smith (2009).

Although I intend to record all lectures, technological problems have been known to occur. Therefore, student access to the online recordings may be delayed. Therefore, all students are strongly encouraged to attend the lectures.

This course will be taught by a series of lectures. In addition, there will be weekly seminars.

The information below is provided as a guide to assist students in engaging appropriately with the course requirements.

The 最新糖心Vlog expects full-time students (ie those taking 12 units per semester) to devote a total of 48 hours per week to their studies. This is a three unit subject. Obviously, much of the time devoted to this subject comes from the student’s own reading. It is extremely important to realise that this commitment of time is expected and assumed of all students. Please refer to Access Adelaide for your timetable and enrolment details.

As time is limited, we will examine only the major applications of equity in a commercial context.

• Topic One (Week 1): Introduction (Equity in a Commercial Context-Should Equity Involve Itself with Commerce?)
• Topic Two (Weeks 2-3): Equity in the Trade Practices Act/ Competition and Consumer Act
• Topic Three (Weeks 4-7): Fiduciary Obligation
• Topic Four (Week 8): Breach Of Confidence
• Topic Five (Weeks 9-10): Subrogation and Contribution
• Topic Six (Weeks 11-12): Relief Against Penalties and Forfeiture

The weekly timetable is indicative only, and timing and what is covered may change depending upon a range of factors.

It is proposed that the assessment of this subject consists of the two pieces of work.

The first is a case analysis. Each case analysis will be 1000 words in length. The mark for the first piece of assessment will constitute 30% of the final mark.

The second piece of work involves student writing an essay. The essay is non-redeemable piece of assessment of 2000 words, worth 70% of their mark.  

The first piece of assessment involves a case analysis. This will require students to write two 1000 word pieces of case analysis (that is, students will write a total of 2,000 words).   However, only one will be marked and returned to students. Generic feedback will be provided on the case which is not assessed. The cases will be distributed to students early in the course and will be due on Monday 15^th September. As two components (that is, two casenotes) constitute this first piece of assessment, the date of submission for both casenotes will be when the last casenote of the two is submitted. For example, if one casenote is submitted on the 15^th but the other casenote is not submitted until the 23^th then both casenotes will be marked as if they were submitted on the 23^th.

 

The second piece of assessment is in the form an essay question. This requires research as the questions involve answers which are built on, but extend, what has been covered in lectures. Therefore it essential that students attended lectures in this course. The question(s) will be distributed by the end of the course. They will be made available on MyUni on Friday 31st October. The due date of the second piece of assessment is Monday 3rd November.

 

Breaches of either due date, without an extension, may be penalized in accordance with Law School policy. Late penalties will be enforced at 5% of the marks available per day or part thereof. If seeking an extension the Law School policy must be followed.

 

The word limit for both pieces of assessment include all footnotes. This limit MUST be observed. Breaches of the word limit may be penalized in accordance with Law School policy. Assignments which exceed the allocated length (word limit or page limit) will be subject to a penalty of 5% of total marks available per 100 words or part thereof (ie an essay graded 63% will have 5% deducted if it is 2001 words long, for a final grade of 58%, 10% if it is 2101 words long, etc). Words are calculated including all footnotes and headings within the text but excluding cover page information. Quotations and all referencing information are included in the word count.

1. Students must retain a copy of all assignments submitted.
2. All individual assignments must be attached to an Assignment Cover Sheet which must be signed by the student before submission. Lecturers will withhold student’s results until such time as the student has signed the Assignment Cover Sheet.
3. Markers can refuse to accept assignments which do not have a signed acknowledgement of the 最新糖心Vlog’s policy on plagiarism (refer to policy on plagiarism above).
4. In the essay, all references are to be provided in the form recommended by Law School policy on referencing. Therefore, the essay is required to comply with The 最新糖心Vlogn Guide to Legal Citation. This is available at: http://www.law.edu.au/library/resources/style/
5. All references are to be provided by footnote, rather than endnotes.
6. All essays must be typewritten and must be placed in the assignment slot at the Front Office by the 2pm on the due date.

 

RETURN OF ASSIGNMENTS AND FEEDBACK

All pieces of assessment will be returned to students within 3 weeks of the due date with written feedback.

Students must not submit work for an assignment that has previously been submitted for this course or any other course without prior approval from the lecturer-in-charge.

Courses for which a result of conceded pass has been obtained may not be presented towards the degree requirements for the Bachelor of Laws or the Honours Degree of Bachelor of Laws programs, or any postgraduate law program, nor to satisfy prerequisite requirements within any law course.

Plagiarism and other forms of cheating

Plagiarism is a serious act of academic misconduct. All students must be familiar with the Adelaide Law School Enrolment Guide 2014, and should note in particular the sections relating to plagiarism, grievance procedures and academic conduct within the Law School and the 最新糖心Vlog.

Plagiarism is a serious matter and is treated as such by the Law School and the 最新糖心Vlog. Please be aware that “academic dishonesty” (which goes beyond plagiarism) can be a ground for a refusal by the Supreme Court of South 最新糖心Vlog to refuse to admit a person to practice as a legal practitioner in South 最新糖心Vlog.

Academic honesty is an essential aspect of ethical and honest behaviour, which is central to the practice of the law and an understanding of what it is to be a lawyer.
