    Sugar Rush | Case by Case (Ep. 50)

    Episode 50! What an exciting milestone. We hope you, our valued listeners, enjoy this third case in our trilogy of lookback cases. We’ve been analysing a few old cases to coincide with Luke’s launch of the inaugural International Commodities and Shipping Law at UoW.

    Ever wondered what is an innominate term?
    Ever wondered how to tell the difference between a condition and an innominate term?

    Mash’s Potatoes | Case by Case (Ep. 48)

    As Luke prepares to launch the International Shipping and Commodities intensive law course at the University of Wollongong in a couple of weeks, he’s had cause to look back at some leading cases.
    Back to the 1960s. The Beatles, Civil Rights activism, flares, and… Mash & Murrell Ltd. v Joseph I. Emmanuel, Ltd. [1961].
    Some law doesn’t stand the test of time (much like poorly ventilated potatoes crossing an ocean). Some law does, as we discuss in this pod. For more, check out our ⁠YouTube channel.
