...QUESTION THREE Alistair wants to build a new restaurant in Sherbrook Forest in the Dandenong Hills in Victoria. He finds a piece of land which is perfect for his purposes and which he wishes to buy so that he can build the restaurant on it. He telephones the local council and asks to be put through to the Planning Department. David answers the call and Alistair tells him of his plans and asks if the Council has any plans regarding the land he wants to purchase. David says that as far as he is aware there are no proposals by the Council regarding the land but suggests to Alistair that he seek legal representation. Alistair says that he has been in the restaurant business for many years and has dealt with councils during that time and ‘everything has always turned out fine’. David says ‘I’ll check again to make sure’ and asks Alistair to wait on the line. David comes back and confirms that there are no proposals and the parties terminate the conversation. Alistair buys the land, hires an architect, Peter, to do plans of the proposed building and the plans are completed. When he submits them for approval, he learns from the Council Planning Department that the Council will not permit the building of a two-level restaurant and that the building must be single level only. The alterations to the plans, the structure of the building and the way it is now going to have to be built, will cost Alistair $250,000. He also learns that on the day of his initial enquiry, he was mistakenly...

...After over two years of living in the tree, Pacific Lumber Co. agreed to preserve the redwood if Hill would vacate it. Julia Hill’s protest is a good example of why it is necessary to violate the law and adhere to one’s own principles. Body Section 2 (Counterclaim and refutation) Socrates’ version of the social contract states that one should never break the social contract, without exception. One must accept any punishment his or her state orders, and must follow his or her governing body’s actions whether in law or war. “And when we are punished by her… the punishment is to be endured in silence; and if she leads us to wounds in death or battle, thither we follow as is right; neither may any one yield or retreat…“...whether in battle or in a court of law, or any other place, he must do what his city and his country order him; or he must...

Law is made up of lots of different rules it is possible to describe law as the body of official rules and regulations, generally found in constitutions and legislation, which are to govern a society and to control the behaviour of its members, so Law is a formal mechanism of social control. (Keenan et al, p3) In the movie Legally Blonde, the foundation of the case was a murder case which is a serious offence that falls under the category of the Criminal Law. Criminal Law is outlined as “A body of rules and statutes that defines conduct prohibited by the government because it threatens and harms public safety and welfare and that establishes punishment to be imposed for the commission of such acts.” Taken from (Gerald N.

...Avocet (Attorney at Law) By William Long “A good lawyer, you get your money’s worth. I have used David on three different license related issues. I have recommended him to many friends all with excellent results.” A 5.0 Star review Posted by Victor on Jun-19, 2011 on Avvo. Sometimes we are forced to make the call, sometimes we just decide to make the call, and sometimes we get the call. In the form of a letter. What is the call you say? Call My Attorney! Ah ha! now you’ve done it, because once this right is invoked the wheels of justice begin their eerily slow revolutions leading to what, if it is your lucky day, is ironically referred to as a speedy trial. The call is usually to bring about some resolution to the problems of life which invariably come along. Problems that because of their very existence create conflict with that antique parchment drafted and signed by our forefathers, many, many years ago, called the Constitution of the United States of America. The Law, the governing authority that allows us to maintain a civil society without anarchy or monarchy. Under the law there is a group of people who are known as officers of the court. We know them as Judges, Attorneys, (British solicitors in lower courts and barristers in higher courts), court clerks bailiffs and court reporters. But between you and I and our heroes of justice if you will, there exists this three tiered buffer of law enforcement better known as police officers sheriffs and Marshalls, the...
