Evidence Law Notes

Description

These notes are a compilation of lecture materials, cases, legislation, the study guide and weekly readings. The notes cover all topics that are assessed in the exam as well as the assignment topic. Throughout the notes there are summaries and analyses of cases, legislation, examples and tips for the exam and assignment. I have also included very helpful Answer Guides at the end of the notes which take you through a step by step process and roadmap of answering exam questions -- which are incredibly helpful for studying for the exam as well as during the exam!
