DESCRIPTION
This module introduces the students to the theory of the function of the law of evidence and the necessity for a distinct consideration of the analysis of evidence and proof from the rules of admissibility. These theories are mainly advocated by Professor William Twining and Jeremy Bentham. The module then introduces the students to a practical tool of analysis of facts in a hypothetical case that students will eventually translate in to two pieces of coursework for assessment. The students analyse the evidence in terms of relevance and then for presentation at a mock trial on the module. The classes require the students each week to focus on the preparation of the chart which in turn prepares them for trial. The chart is a detailed analysis of evidence in the hypothetical case given to students, presented in diagrammatic form which can be put in to their professional development portfolios.
