Introduction to Law: cram pack

A decorator finishes the work but with minor defects that are cheap to fix. Under Hoenig v Isaacs, the decorator is entitled to:

1. AThe price less the cost of putting the defects right
2. BNothing, because performance was not exact
3. COnly payment for the materials used
4. DThe full price with no deduction

A builder agrees to finish work for an agreed price, then demands more money. The client pays to avoid delay and gets a practical benefit. In English law (Williams v Roffey), the promise to pay more may be:

1. AUnenforceable, because performing an existing contractual duty can never be good consideration
2. BA criminal offence
3. CEnforceable, because the practical benefit can be consideration if there is no duress
4. DEnforceable only if made in writing

The Wagon Mound case concerns which issue?

1. ADuty of care to unborn children
2. BDirectness: a defendant is liable for all direct consequences of the breach
3. CStrict liability for animals
4. DRemoteness: only reasonably foreseeable types of damage are recoverable

After drinking together for hours, a man agrees to fly with an obviously very drunk pilot, and the plane crashes. In Morris v Murray, the passenger's claim:

1. AFailed, because of illegality
2. BFailed, because he voluntarily accepted the risk
3. CSucceeded, with damages reduced for contributory negligence
4. DSucceeded, because volenti never applies to passengers

Parliamentary sovereignty (as described by Dicey) means that:

1. ACourts can strike down any Act of Parliament that conflicts with common law rights
2. BParliament can make or unmake any law, and no body can override its Acts
3. CParliament must obey previous Parliaments
4. DThe executive can override Parliament

In YL v Birmingham City Council (2007), the House of Lords held that a private care home housing residents funded by a council:

1. AWas not exercising a function of a public nature under the Human Rights Act
2. BWas a core public authority
3. CCould not house publicly funded residents
4. DWas a hybrid public authority bound by the Act for all the care it provided

D takes V's bag and is seen; a few seconds later D ties V up to escape. Following R v Hale, D is guilty of robbery because:

1. AThe bag was later recovered by the police
2. BAny force used on the victim within an hour of the theft automatically turns it into robbery
3. CAppropriation is a continuing act, so the force was used at the time of the theft
4. DTying up a victim is robbery even without theft

In R v Hinks (2000), the House of Lords held that:

1. AOnly shop thefts involve appropriation
2. BA valid gift can never be theft because full ownership passes to the recipient at once
3. CCivil law always decides criminal liability for theft
4. DReceiving a valid gift can be an appropriation, so it can be theft if dishonest

An agreement caught by Article 101(1) TFEU may be exempted under Article 101(3) if, among other conditions, it:

1. AIs notified to and approved by the Commission or the national competition authority in advance
2. BHas been in operation for more than five years
3. CInvolves companies with combined market shares over 50%
4. DImproves production or distribution and allows consumers a fair share of the benefit

In AKZO (1991), the Court of Justice stated that a market share of 50% or more:

1. AIs required before any investigation of dominance
2. BCan in itself be evidence of a dominant position, in the absence of exceptional circumstances
3. CIs automatically an abuse of a dominant position, without any further analysis being needed by the Commission
4. DIs irrelevant to the assessment of dominance
