Torts Mnemonics and Definitions: Mnemonics, #3
()
About this ebook
Mnemonics for Intentional Torts are ordered to place Intentional Act first as it is common to all Intentional Torts.
Defenses to Torts are ordered to match Crimes Defenses where they are the same.
Mnemonics for Negligence are ordered by the legal issues that must be discussed to establish a prima facie case.
A Mnemonic is a device used to assist in memorizing lists of words. Memorizing the mnemonic assists in memory recall of the words represented. In this book, each letter of a mnemonic corresponds to the first letter of a legal term. Recalling the mnemonic from memory takes less time than recall of an entire list of terms.
The mnemonics included in this book reference the important common law substantive legal terms that must be discussed in torts exams and in the bar exam in any State that tests the common law.
The purpose of the included mnemonic devices is to provide a quick check list so that every important issue will be discussed if relevant when taking an exam. The corresponding definitions are based on common law principles and should be used as a starting point for a full understanding of each concept. Further research of the fine points of each rule will be necessary. Application of the law to factual situations is not addressed in this book, however spotting all relevant issues and the ability to recite the elements of each rule are both essential to proper legal analysis.
Use of this book in electronic form provides both a unique learning experience and a handy reference tool based on the hyperlink features employed. Letters in blue text are hyperlinks that will take the reader to the section of the book related to the word or phrase.
Since this electronic publication is also a book, it can be printed and used the old fashioned way.
