Its existence was indicative of a lacuna, one which academics would not fill. It took a group of law students, balancing their studies and other commitments, to organise such a publication. 1955-01-01T00:00:00Z /library/oar/handle/123456789/73914 Title: Editorial [The Law Journal : Volume 3 : Issue 3] Abstract: We welcome the new students who have this year joined the intermediate Course of Arts and who intend to join the Course of Laws. We should like to remind these new students that the Law Society is their own society more than any other University Society and we invite them as from now to take an active interest in the society and in its activities, for it is they who in the near future will be called upon to guide the fortunes of the Law Society. 1955-01-01T00:00:00Z /library/oar/handle/123456789/73913 Title: Notes on cases I - Fenech vs Bianchi noe Abstract: This case was decided by the First Hall of the Civil Court on the 26th May, 1952. The present note concerns a point which wasdiscussed before the Court but which was left undecided, as the Court based its judgement on a preliminary issue of fact, notwithstanding that the parties had refrained by agreement from producing evidence on the point of fact adjudicated upon. The legal question involved was not mentioned in any way in the judgement, so that the present note refers not to the actual contents of the judgement but to an interesting point which, as far as is known, has never been authoritatively settled by any local Court. 1955-01-01T00:00:00Z /library/oar/handle/123456789/73912 Title: Notes on cases II - Police vs Gerard Caruana Abstract: The legal nature of Wages Councils was examined in some detail by H. M. Court of Criminal Appeal presided over by the Hon. Mr. Justice W. harding, B.Litt., LL.D., on the 19th September, 1953, where the invalidity of an order made by the Minister on the advice of a Wages Council was being pleaded. It was alleged that the Council had not considered the representations made to it by interested parties and that the advice given to the Minister was in face not that of the whole Council bit of two members only who were not sitting as a Council at the time the decision was reached. 1955-01-01T00:00:00Z
