atm we do SLP which is simulated legal practice but in 3rd year its all about working with real people
edit: in Australia) most of the time that i've seen people bothered by the cops for ganja, they've told them to just tip it out on the ground, they'll literally just destroy the stuff instead of arrest them
Aye, the degree and BPTC is easy enough, getting a pupillage takes like 2 years to be accepted for one if its not too competitive
unless they're driving, driving+stoned = arrest
yeah its ridiculous, even like straight 1st student isnt nearly enough of a guarantee and im nowhere near that. the 6 fig earnings are good if you can figuratively in bed with the clerk
get one that gives you the good jobs
Sorry for asking loads of questions, just interesting.
its just what legal practice would be like, only the people are made up, one of our lecturers is an ex-solicitor but not all of em are
so yea basically
Ahh, I see.
That’s why I’m trying to get into Cambridge (unlikely) but if i can then it might make it easier to get a pupillage since ill have some metaphorical clout trying to get onto a commercial law pupillage
Good morning, and what is slp Sorry for not knowing
Simulated Legal Practice

Oh I'm good, just waking up. Enjoying this legal talk but was just a little lost
haha, im also kinda shit at explaining it, plus im only in 2nd year so theres still tonnes i'v not been told
I enjoy it too. Never knew Endo was doing it.
So awesome.
What do you do @Tea?
Yeah I had no idea and think it's interesting, especially since I have little knowledge in that field
another thing to mention is that what i know is only relevant to england and wales, NI and scotland have their own that i'd only be able to persuasively inform on not legally, same with the US and CA, and i think AUS as well
@Endecros pretty sure Scotland have the same court system just a few of their own laws right?
they have differing courts, and some other stuff, like for example markus went to a sherrif court for his trial but we dont have em here, it seems to just be a mag's court but perhaps with differing powers and a judge instead of 3 or more magistrates
i might be wrong on what i said earlier too, because i think we use case law from scotland thats legally authoritative, like one from Lanarkshire Health Board v (somethin i cant remember atm)
Oh shit, good thing i only need to know English law
Totally
aye, one reason why i personally believe you'd be better gettin a law degree in england instead of scotland, not because of the law itself being better or worse, theres just so many more clients
plus then theres not as much of a need for a conversion course
Would love to move to the US at some point but then I’d have to redo all the law work and fuck that
Does anybody have that comedy genius nigger meme?
