Study Notes
Legal Case Analysis
- Case: A legal dispute between parties resolved through court or legal process.
- Case Citation: Identifies a past court decision, providing:
- Style of cause
- Names of parties
- Year of decision (may differ from when case began)
- Reporter information (location of case report)
- Case Brief: Written summary of a legal decision. Uses F-I-D-O to organize it:
- Facts: Relevant details of the case.
- Issue: Legal question the court must answer.
- Decision: Court's ruling and reasoning.
- Opine: Importance and consequences of the case (student analysis).
Legal Systems
- Domestic Law: Rules applying within a country's territory.
- Example: Cruise ship/airplane laws adhere to the vessel/aircraft's registering country's laws.
- International Law: Governs relationships between countries.
- Enforcement is challenging; most relies on countries agreeing to comply.
- Example: Outer Space Treaty governs space exploration.
Defining Law
- Law: A body of rules a society recognizes and its government enforces.
- Visible Law: Written laws, court rulings.
- Invisible Law: Jurisprudence (philosophy, history, culture, morals, politics)
Purpose of Law
- Order: Prevents anarchy and chaos.
- Dispute Resolution: Peaceful and orderly solutions to conflicts.
- Protection: Protects individuals, property, and rights.
- Values: Embodies a society's ideals and goals.
- Example: Drivers' license laws—practical; bigamy laws—moral.
- Tension: Between law and society's morality.
Historical Roots of Law (Ancient Greece/Rome/Byzantine)
- Ancient Greece: First democracy (Athens).
- Political rights: Limited voting rights for free men.
- Court system: Juries decided guilt/punishment (juries ranged from 101-1001).
- Ancient Rome: Codified laws (Twelve Tables).
- Basic laws (property, inheritance, etc.) written on tablets.
- Byzantine Empire: Justinian's Code.
- Compiled and refined Roman laws, foundational for modern Western legal systems.
Specific Case Example ("Lego v. Megabloks")
- Kirkbi AG v. Ritvik Holdings Inc., 2005 SCC 65: Lego (Denmark) sued Megabloks (Canada) for trademark infringement.
- Issue: Trademark of Lego's distinctive block design after patent expired.
- Decision: No trademark, as appearance is a functional characteristic and not just a brand.
- Reasoning: Unending trademark protection would deny benefits to other inventors beyond the 20-year patent period.
Historical Legal Codes
- Hammurabi Code: Ancient Babylon, early example of codified law (1757 BCE).
- Mosaic Law: (Old Testament).
- Napoleonic Code: 18th century France.
- Canadian Criminal Code: Current Canadian law.
