Many thanks The Law Teacher. But surely, decisions of R v Clouden and P v DPP are logically inconsistent. If force has no definition in law, and it's up to the jury, gabbed or slid, force is still needed. What about ''slight'... do we need a numerical value in newtons?(!) All very confused.
You’re absolutely right, they are logically inconsistent, and that’s one criticism that you can make of the law. This is the issue we have with case law decided by different judges!
No, the examiners use positive marking. This means that we are looking to award marks, we don’t take them away. However, if your work is full of mistakes, that will obviously prevent you from being awarded marks in higher bands.
@@thelawteacher5724 Thanks for the quick response, I've moved onto the theory of criminal law and I am struggling a bit. What are regulatory offences? I understand their aim is to prevent public harm but do they do this by regulating the public sector? Is their aim to essentially prevent health issues e.g. eating spoilt food?
Outstanding well put
Great video.... So informative❤
So glad you liked it. Thanks for watching!
Thank you so much! Helps me prepare for my lectures in advance haha
I’m pleased to hear this! Keep up the hard work!

If I was to make a mistake while quoting statute would that result in me getting marked down?

@@thelawteacher5724 Are you likely to get higher marks if you quote statute as opposed to just explaining it?
@@afghanskull7782yes you are! Directly citing or referencing statutes and sections will lift your work and help you achieve the higher mark bands.

@@afghanskull7782I would recommend watching my videos on strict liability. These videos explain the purpose of those sorts of offences.
