Definition of Terms

Hi! WELCOME TO MY BLOG!

Thank you for visiting my blog. There are lots of case

digests here that you can use for your easy
reference.

BAR the professional body for lawyers

BENCH the general term for all judges, as in, "the bench", or for the
particular judge or panel of judges, as in, an order coming from "the
bench"...... the large, usually long and wide desk raised above the level of the
rest of the courtroom, at which the judge or panel of judges sit.
LAWYER a person learned in law who is licensed to act as a represent for
another in a legal matter or proceeding.
TRIAL LAWYER a lawyer who specializes in defending clients before a court
of law.

One of the reasons why I made this blog is to help my

fellow law students who otherwise find it hard or
have less time to digest cases. So, if you have cases
that you want to be digested, please feel free to
leave a comment including the full citation of the
case. I'll try to digest them for you, ASAP. Of course,
that will be subject to my time availability.
Have fun! :)
