Law for Non-Lawyers

post has two assignments

1. Hilda has been taken to hospital after being hit over the head with a chair leg by Billy, her husband. The incident
took place in front of their two children age five and eight. Billy arrives at the hospital an hour later having stopped off at
the ‘Two Ducks’ for a few pints, and is told by the nurse that he cannot see his wife. Billy slaps the nurse across the face,
and the police are called. Billy is subsequently arrested for assault both on the nurse and his wife.

The Crown Prosecution Service now have Billy’s file. Apply the Guidance and general principles that must be taken into
account by them when considering the decision as to whether they should prosecute Billy for the alleged assaults.

Ray, the Manager of a builder’s merchants, asks Derek, a Sales Assistant at the same workplace, to keep an eye on his 5-acre
smallholding while he is on holiday in Spain. Derek emails a few of his friends to attend his 21st birthday party in a
disused barn on Ray’s farm land. Due to a technical error, the email was sent to his entire email address book. Over 600
people arrive at the party and a neighbouring farmer calls the police complaining about the noise. Derek is arrested for
breach of the Prohibition of Unsolicited Parties (Fictitious) Act 2010.
