Legal Jingles: Including a Collection of Case-Law Verses (a Memoria Technia for Students and Others) - Couverture souple
Présentation de l'éditeur
There are many students, and, I suppose, some practitioners, as they are called here, who can remember the principles of Law with greater facihty than they can recall their case law. To such the following jingles are presented as aM emoria Technica. It is not claimed that they will be the means of imparting any extensive legal knowledge, but that they will be effectual (1) In fixing upon the students memory the names of parties to some of the leading cases, especially where they occur at the ends of lines. (2) In putting the reader upon the right track, which he may follow at will by referring to the report of the case itself, and supplement this by a perusal of the cases collected on the point in question, in such-books as Mr. Shirley sor Mr. Smith sL eading Cases, while Mr. Kant sadmirable work of reference will point out to him where those cases have been more recently discussed. Some of these verses were written many years ago, and in this connection I wish to record my indebtedness toM r. E. R. Gamsey, B.A., of theN ewS outh Wales Equity Bar, for his permission to adopt the idea, and also to include those verses which we then wrote for our mutual amusement. The author submits them with all faults, and (slightly altering a well known quotation) begs to add Hos ego versiculos feci, ferat emptor honorem. The favourable reviews which greeted the appearance of the original edition embolden the author to submit a second and somewhat extended edition, to be pubU shed, not in Western A ustralia, but in, the larger arena {qiia law and law students) of theE astern States of the Commonwealth. The Jingles are reprinted with all due acknowledgments toT he Bulletin, The Green Bag, and The Western Mail, to which the author sent them many years ago. Perth, W.A., May,
