Distinction scaffold LAWS1016 LAWS5004 Criminal Law

Description

This is the scaffold I made and used in the 2024 criminal law final exam. While it's concise and easy to refer to, it also contains brief facts of core cases to be used in final. It got me a distinction for this course. How to use: this scaffold is for exams. For daily study, you should combine this with the tutor's slides, other detailed notes or reading materials for case facts/principles.
