Select and review one law case, set of policy document(s), or agreement from the list below ( I selected North v. Metaswitch Networks Corporation) the link to the case is :https://www.canlii.org/en/on/onca/doc/2017/2017onc…
Use the Facts, Issues, Law, Analysis, Communication/Conclusions (FILAC) method for your
selected case and review each according to the categories set out in the Rubric. Do not include
a copy of the case in your submission.
In a court case, discuss the facts and issues in the case, noting the arguments presented by the
plaintiff/defendant and/or appellant/respondent parties, and analyse and discuss the decision
given by the court. There may be more than one court case relating to a dispute. You should
work through all of them and extract the information which is relevant the course section topic:
contract law, securities law, competition law, or employment law. Do not discuss costs.
Be sure to identify and discuss the ratio decidendi and the obiter dictum, if you can identify
them. This is often difficult. Examine the literature for analysis, comment, and opinion on the
case. Comment on if and how the case has influenced the law.
The assignment should be approximately 5 – 6 typed pages: single spaced; 12 pt. font;
single-sided; paginated at bottom right [page x of y]; with headings. Title page, references,
and individual group member insights do not count toward total pages.
12) Organization:
a. Title page.
b. Case Analysis (5 – 6 pages).
i. Use FILAC method.
ii. Eg. case name: Goodkey v. Canada Safeway Ltd., 2000 ABQB 376 (CanLII).
iii. Summary of the case is to explain the facts of the case. What happened to cause
the lawsuit? This is like the Situations for Discussion in the text. It will be 1 – 2
paragraphs.
iv. Legal Analysis – Briefly explain each party’s legal argument using Plaintiff and
Defendant or Appellant and Respondent. What is their legal argument or position?
v. Legal Analysis – Briefly explain each party’s legal argument using Plaintiff and
Defendant or Appellant and Respondent. What is their legal argument or position?
vi. Analysis of the court decision. What is the decision by the court on the legal issues
/ facts / arguments raised? Does it make sense when compared to what you’ve
learned in the course? Compare and contrast what the court decided with what the
course taught. Discuss inconsistencies, if any.
vii. Referencing is to paragraphs which are at the beginning of each paragraph by [ ]
notation. As this assignment is a case summary you do not have to reference each
fact. Only reference direct quotations but keep direct quotations to a minimum.
Your analysis – in your own words – is where most marks are earned.
c. References.
d. Individual insights
I have attached below an example of a different case, the assignment itself and also a mock scenario in which I need a agruement statement and I will provider more info to the tutor I choose.
