Principles of Liability – Coursework Assessment Two For a contractual agreement to withstand‚ it is crucial that the contract contains the four main components‚ which are; offer‚ acceptance‚ consideration and the intention to create legal relations. A contract is seen as a legally binding agreement between two parties‚ so It is very important for the court to establish a ‘consensus ad idem’; the meeting of minds in order to judge whether a contract exists.

In regard to criminal liability‚ certain elements must be satisfied for an individual to be found guilty of an offence. The accused must have been responsible for conduct which is otherwise prohibited by the law; this is referred to as the ‘actus reus’ of a crime. However this alone is insufficient for conviction‚ unless it concerns a crime which is of strict liability‚ like Harrow London BC v. Shah . Alongside the ‘actus reus’ element of a crime there is also a requirement for the accused to

uses and limitations of using models in science. The Plum Pudding Model is an atom model proposed by J.J Thomson‚ the physicist who discovered the electron. In Thomson’s "Plum Pudding Model" each atom was a sphere filled with a positively charged fluid. The fluid was called the "pudding." Scattered in this fluid were electrons known as the "plums." The radius of the model was 10-10 meters. Thomson suggested that the positive fluid held the negative charges‚ the electrons‚ in the atom because of electrical

In her paper‚ Defence of Abortion‚ Judith Jarvis Thomson takes a more “pro-choice” approach and argues for the justification of abortion in more circumstances than not. She does this by using different thought experiments that align with different situations in which women can get pregnant. While I agree with her reasonings for the first two circumstances talked about in her paper‚ I disagree with her justification for getting pregnant while using protection. I believe that even though inconvenient

types of causation which are necessary to establish criminal liability. These are factual causation and cause in law (also known as legal causation). Factual causation means that the defendant can only be found guilty if the consequence would not have happened ‘but for’ the defendant’s conduct. This was seen in the case of Pagett (1982). Similarly‚ a defendant cannot be found guilty if the victim’s death was unrelated to the defendant’s actions (as in White‚ 1910). Legal causation‚ where the
