LAW 3321 Evidence Law Notes- made by a teacher

Description

I really liked Evidence Law 3321 and I liked the lecturer too, and that's probably why I went really well at it, I suppose. Some people found evidence confusing and I see why. These notes are made by me, a Legal Studies teacher studying my LLB, so I know how to make content stick. The exam is serious- the exam guide as part of this set will help you tackle it. There's 133 pages here - you will be ready, even if you missed the odd lecture or tute. Please see my other subject notes. Topics 1. Introduction [Admission Rules 10(1)] 2.
