Description

This is an introduction to principal areas of commercial law of relevance to legal practice. This course deals primarily with the intersection of property and contract law in the sale of goods, a species of personal property. It includes a study of product liability, including the liability of the sellers, manufacturers and credit providers. It provides a foundation for the study of risk in the rules for the transfer of property in goods. A major component of the course is the study of Trade Practices law particularly the prohibition against misleading and deceptive conduct. The course examines available statutory remedies.
