The Judiciary Law- Understanding Judges
Select a case which has gone all the way to a final court of appeal and provide a critical analysis of how it has developed from first instance through to the final decision. Your chosen case must be one of the eight identified at the start of the module. My chosen case is: Right to life New Zealand INC v Abortion Supervisory Committee (2012). Explain how the case changed and developed, both in terms of how facts were presented, and in terms of what the different levels of judges said about this case. Why did they decide the way they did? What was the purpose of their dissent? (Read the case in Lexisnexis or Westlaw)
