Picks and Shovels is a new, standalone technothriller starring Marty Hench, my two-fisted, hard-fighting, tech-scam-busting forensic accountant. THIS IS THE LAST DAY to pre-order it on my latest Kickstarter, which features a brilliant audiobook read by Wil Wheaton.

Creator: @lawstudentinleeds - ✨ PRE-EXAM STUDYING ✨ - Tomorrow is the first exam of my second year studying my law degree! It’s a criminal law oral assessment and this year they have based it on offences against the persons (aka. Assault, Battery ABH or GBH). There’s a little bit more to it than that but that’s the main part of the examination! - Thankfully I’m feeling very prepared! I tend to get pre-exam jitters especially when I’m studying the day before but criminal law is certainly one of my strong points👨🏻‍⚖️. - I am filming a ‘day in the life’ video all day today to show what a day looks like when i’m studying just before an exam, plus it will be my first IGTV! (Although I have been toying with the idea of creating a YouTube channel...). - - - #studygram #lawdegree #lawstudy #lawblog #lawblogger #llb #revision #lawstudent #lawstudies #futurelawyer #lawschool #studylaw #llblaw #digitalnotes #studytips #studyspo #studystudy #studyblog #studyinspo #studygramcommunity #digitalnotetaking #studyblr #studynotes #studywithme #studying #ulaw #studyblogger #studygrammer #studylife #studyinspiration https://www.instagram.com/p/CKHeq5Jl_ZZ/?igshid=l5hv8qncfn33

Top Best Law Blog - Why You Should Have a Law Blog for Your Practice

[ijuanainspire]

Anong pakiramdam?

Being in law school is like.. ah.. hirap iexplain. 

First. It is an experience of a life time. 

Not everyone has the guts to enter law school. Be proud kasi yung pagpasa mo palang sa PhilSat and sa entrance exam ng school na papasukan mo is a big achievement. Every achievement counts hind ba?

Pero hindi ako nagtake ng PhilSat. hahahaha!! Shout out sa LEB for granting exemptions sa mga Laude graduates! <3 

But you can check the details of PhilSat in this website: https://www.cem-inc.org.ph/philsat/

Second. It is your nightmare.

Kung nung college ka eh sanay kang magising ng maaga at matulog ng umaga ,hindi pa rin sapat yun. To study law is to give up your life in order to achieve that ATTY extension sa name mo. Very inspiring ang mga taong kaya pa rin magkilay bago sila makapasok ng classroom. 

As a student, isa akong magaling na procrastinator kaya ngayon sobrang hirap ako mag-aral. I wake up at 10am and do my readings 4 hours before class. It’s not enough. Bali ang nagagawa ko lang sa apat na oras eh i-scan yung mga back logs* ko. (Back Logs- term yan sa mga assignment/cases/readings na hindi mo pa tapos basahin tapos may panibago na naman ibibigay yung prof mo. Hayup men.)

May vertigo ako so hindi ako pwede na magpuyat all the time or else mamamatay ako for a day and trust me, you miss a lot if you’re dead for even just an hour. Ang ginagawa ko is I plot my strengths and weaknesses. Mahina ako sa memorization but I have good recalling skills and medyo (mga 0.00000000000000000001%) eiditic memory so what I do is to connect in real life ang readings. There was this one case na ang taong involve is ka-apilido ko so I try to imagine myself as the respondent in order to recall facts and the rulings. 

Magaling ako sa Criminal Law pero bobo na ako sa lahat. Hindi ko alam. Sadyang mas nakatakda ata na maging kriminal ako kesa abogado, 

Civil Law is hard for me. Since first time ko talaga sya ma-encounter. So double the effort in this one. Cases help me a lot to understand the provisions. Books, uhm..so-so. Minsan sagabal lang sila. 

Wala kayong masyadong mapupulot na study tips sa akin because even I myself is having a hard time to study. hahahah! Ba’t ako nag blog??? Wala. Madami ako time eh. 

Third. Childish people. 

Punong-puno ang law school ng mga taong hindi mo alam paano sila pinalaki ng mga magulang nila. Yung iba kapaki-pakinabang yung iba ang sarap batuhin ng codal :D #nohatejustlove

The RKs

Eto yung mga anak mayaman na pag may sinabing libro yun prof mo eh matic after 5 minutes may copy na sila samantalang ikaw nakapila ka ng dalawang oras para makuha yun libro or nagstick ka nalang sa iligal na book copy kasi tig tatlong libo yun book 

The Panic Lords

Sila naman yung mga masarap batukan pag on deck sila or kapag biglang nalate yung prof tapos ina-assume nila na may quiz na kayo so ikaw naman mahahawa sa pag papanic nila.Mas marami pang time yung pagpanic kesa sa actual studying time.  

The LAWrds (lords)

Tabihan mo sila besh. Mga matatalino at pinagpalang nilalang ang mga yan. Alam lahat. Parang kinain nila yung codal sobrang kabisa ultimo yung comma and period nung provision alam isulat. 

GossipGirls Law Edition

Sila naman yung mga classmates mo na kilala ang buong law community at wagas kung makakuha ng info! Beneficial at times except na lang pag ikaw na ang laman ng topic nila. Para silang PokeDex kasi may info sila sa lahat ng prof at kung paano ang style nila. Yung tipong nasa other class pa yung prof pero aware na sila anong provision ang dinidiscuss niya. Hayerp. 

Fourth. Sulit ba?

Oo naman. Sulit ang law school! Mahal pero sulit. If dream mo talaga maging abogado, everything is worth it. Pero kung napadpad ka lang sa law school kasi akala mo kaya mo and dahil sabi ng lawyer mong tatay, aba mag-isip ka ulit besh. Kasi if you don’t like what you’re doing, you find everything hard. 

You cannot love what you don’t find interesting. So mahalin mo lang ang lawschool. Keep that spark alive!

MY BUSINESS IS TO REMAIN IN BUSINESS: In 2012 during my National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) days, I was posted to a Law Firm as expected. As a new wig, I had so many things in my head and super excited to practice and exhibit all that I’d learnt in the past 6 years, well I could say I was super zealous as always. But I almost got stocked when I discovered that a lot of things taught back down were kind of different in real practice and then the law firm I was posted to had loads of cases in court, I was excited at first but soon after I was practically struggling to combine the theorical aspect of the law with the reality I was facing as a young lawyer and my boss then would just hand over case files to me and expected me to do justice to it as “the law” that I was hailed everywhere #Lol Click to continue reading….. https://legitbusinessolutions.com/2020/06/03/my-business-is-to-remain-in-business/ #LINKINBIO If you haven’t ordered for my New Book on “Legal Toolkit for Business Start-ups”? 👇 here’s the link, just click……….. https://mailchi.mp/b9dfd01f1e14/legaltoolkit #LINKINBIO Enjoy the remains of your day.

#10yrsago Copyright-maximalist judges plagiarize lawblogger in opinion

The judges in a Dutch copyright case plagiarized a legal blogger in writing their opinion. The case held that framing and embedding is a form of copyright infringement (a maximalist copyright view that I find pretty dubious as a policy matter), and the relevant section from the opinion, "in case law and legal literature it is generally held that an embedded link constitutes a publication. After all, the material can be viewed or heard within the context of the website of those who placed the link, and placement causes the material to reach a new audience" is identical to text that appeared earlier on SOLV lawyer Douwe Linders's blog. Dutch copyright's fair dealing rules allow for some quotation without permission, but passing off someone else's text as your own is plagiarism, and weakens the fair dealing claim as well.

Reposted from @annyfabolous - The fashion industry is a bit more complicated than other creative industries, especially when it comes to intellectual property, because fashion trends change and evolve every few months. The different forms of Intellectual Property offer some protection to this complex industry; however, this protection is not adequate. For example, copyright law protects any artistic expression however this is limited to the expression and not the functionality of the design -which in fashion is crucial. Furthermore, copyright limits its protection to works that are not meant to be re-produced, which in a sense, defeats the purpose of any fashion design. Design law aims to fill in the gaps where copyright falls short. However, the requirements which need to be fulfilled for any design to attract this form of protection are a slightly unrealistic. A design needs to be novel and it must not have been released to the public to attract design protection. A designer could be taking a risk as he or she could be unsure of how well such a design will be received by the public and so it will be difficult determining if the design would be worth protecting or not. Design registrations are also difficult to obtain -the process is lengthy and expensive. Nigerian intellectual property laws are in dire need of reform. For example, copyright laws could be reformed to allow for full protection without the limitation of production. Furthermore, structures should be established to ensure a less tedious registration process; for example, most applications at the Registry are still completed manually as opposed to electronically. -Africa Fashion Law #fashionlaw #fashionblogger #lawblogger #nigerianlaw #nigerianfashionindustry #nigeriandesigners posted by @nlsabuja #lawyerng #sdv #chuva — view on Instagram https://ift.tt/2Y9Tnyz
