Drawing on materials and concepts from JURD7152
Outline of this assessment task
Drawing on materials and concepts from JURD7152 Introducing Law and Justice, write an extended case note on Hoang v The Queen [2022] HCA 14.
An extended case note includes two parts:
1. a case brief, and
2. a case commentary offering a critical discussion of the case and the issues it raises.
This task requires:
• a clear, holistic, synthesised case brief;
• the thoughtful identification of conceptual, legal, policy and/or social issues raised by the proceedings and/or the judgment(s), drawing on materials and concepts from the course;
a critical analysis of the case in terms of the conceptual, legal, policy and/or social issues you have identified and selected from the course materials.
The case brief should provide the reader with: the relevant background to the case, the correct citation (to an authorised report where available), the material facts and procedural history, details of the outcome, a clear and logical synthesis/analysis of the legal issues, the legal reasoning of the judge(s), the ratio of the case, and any significant obiter. As a guide, your case brief should occupy no more than 40% of the word limit.
You must also undertake some additional independent research to assist you to identify the critical/contextual issue(s) you want to address in your case note, to clarify and extend your ideas, and to develop and support your critical discussion.
Materials you reference in your Extended Case Note must be included in a comprehensive Bibliography that meets the form and style requirements set out in Australian Guide to Legal Citation (Melbourne University Law Review Association and Melbourne Journal of International Law, 4th ed, 2018).
When completing this assignment, you should conform to the principles of good legal writing, including:
• writing clearly and precisely with attention to effectively communicating your meaning;
• structuring your text carefully, which may include using sub-headings;
• using plain legal language;
• citing sources or authority whenever necessary and relevant;
• using footnotes to refer to sources or authority;
• correct, consistent and compliant citation in accordance with Australian Guide to Legal Citation (Melbourne University Law Review Association and Melbourne Journal of International Law, 4th ed, 2018);
• acknowledging your sources and authority appropriately (that is, your work is free from plagiarism);
• using language that is appropriate for an academic audience, avoiding colloquialisms, stereotypes and/or derogatory assumptions about participants in the legal system;
using gender inclusive language (for example, avoiding assumptions about the gender of legal personnel);
Other Requirements Format
Your text should be 1½ spaced with a good margin (2.5 – 3cm). Make sure that your name, student number, an exact word count, and your lecturer’s name are marked clearly on the first page of your assignment. Each subsequent sheet should have your student number on it.
