This case table is a great revision resource for A-Level law students. It contains gaps to fill in the facts and legal principle for the key cases for defences and remedies under tort law.

These cases are the ‘tier 1’ cases and sections. These are cases that will appear in every problem question answer for defences and remedies.

Cases included:

Jones v Livox Quarries (1952)
Morris v Murray (1991)
Stapley v Gypsum Mines Ltd (1953)
Pilkington v Wood (1953)

Legislation Included:

Law Reform (Contributory Negligence) Act 1945, s 1(1)

How I Use This Resource

I give the sheet to students and give them five minutes to complete as much as they can by themselves without notes.
I then give them a further five minutes to work as a group.
They can then complete the table with notes if there are still gaps.

I usually have the table on the board and fill it in throughout if students as me for clarity or shout out any answers! By the end of about 15 minutes every students should have a completed sheet.
