[@rainiergeraldine4617]

Hello from Indonesia. Thank you very much for making these type of videos, what you do is extremely meaningful, especially for someone like me who originally study law in civil law country, and are interested in the practice of common law. Keep up the good work, good sir. This channel is underrated, i hope more people come and support this channel.

[@alisonbrowndemoreno2430]

I found you after a horrendous contract law lecturer and you are so good at this. I’m taking torts next block and immediately checked to see if you had one for torts. I finished your video and then went and did my readings and it was so clear. If you are struggling with sometimes overly wordy and unwieldy textbooks and lectures I strongly suggest listening to his lectures first and then doing your readings and coming back to the videos to solidify your understanding.

[@AnthsLawSchool]

Thanks so much Alison. I'm really glad I could help!

Thank you again so much. Tort law for first year student is daunting and overwhelming. So much to read and sooo much to understand that my mind can't possibly take it on and understand it. But you have made so simply and easy to understand. I would rather watch the your videos and and analyse your videos then of my own lectures. ( I have watch my lectures two or more times and still didn't get it) but i get yours. Than you again.

[@AngrySkipperGC]

I got a 7 in my torts course (High distinction) last year and work in the area for an insurance company. I am watching this lecturer to provide me with some information on how to deliver a fairly succinct, short style presentation to my team on torts law and negligence and there are some really useful tools here! In fact, some of the torts that I am not frequently exposed to on a regular basis are included in this video and it is really entertaining. I should probably save this for later though... Gotta get back to studying Environmental Law and Equity/trusts!

[@random19911004]

25:05 The person is in a moving car and the door handle did not work so she was 'totally restrained'. What if the door handle is operational, but you have to open it while the car is moving. Then think about the different speeds. It's possible to open while stopped in traffic. Another thing to open while it is moving . "Oh but you had the option of opening and jumping out of a moving car"

[@AnthsLawSchool]

All very true. I would think that anyone who is in a moving car would be considered totally restrained - but remember that cases are only precedents for the law, not for the facts.

[@nataliehanna2827]

I am doing a Law Conversion class after having worked in the music industry for two decades, and your videos are a great supplement to the reading material! I've recommended them to everyone. If it's not too much trouble, can I ask for your recommendation of good foundational texts? Thank you, B

[@songswithoutinstrumentalmu2870]

I should have come across your presentation before 2020. I had to read many tort law books, contact law books, IP law books, banking regulations when I was working on civil suits relating to those areas from 2016- 2020, self represented. Your video presentation are excellent but one must master the text books, reference books, case law, and perform legal research to fully understand the topics.... I have to agree your videos are excellent source of learning in addition to book materials that ate available. I am neither a lawyer nor a law student.

[@AnthsLawSchool]

Hey thank you so much! I love it when my videos are useful to people who are not studying, but who simply want to know more. Best of luck in those suits!

If a civilian write a complaint against a person and uses a police officer to help write it, is the police an accessory to the crime of filing a false report %??

[@AnthsLawSchool]

I wouldn't imagine so. The police officer would, at the very least, have to know the report was false. This would be a matter in criminal law rather than one in tort.

[@niamhmoran173]

Thanks Anthony, I found this video very useful! Could you please update the closed captions? They're inaccurate and I'm sure you would want this content to be accessible by persons deaf and/or hearing impaired.

Hi Niamh, Thanks for drawing this to my attention. Obviously dealing with 20,000 words of closed captions would be a fairly major task, and given that I recorded this video in 2018, I'm not certain I even have the script any more. But I will have a go!

Are you able to explain though why a drone hovering in your back yard wouldn't amount to nuisance?

[@AnthsLawSchool]

Well, nuisance is all about the protection of proprietary rights in property. A drone hovering in your back yard would, however, quite likely constitute a trespass, if it was at a sufficiently low altitude that it interfered with your enjoyment of your yard. Hope that helps!

Hi Joanne, this particular video seems to have audio problems - but only sometimes, and only for some people. I've never been able to figure it out. I'm glad you find the channel helpful though!

[@bashkillszombies]

Did you record this in the dunny with an iPhone as a microphone? :P I wish stuff like this was about when I did my LL.B tbh. It's far more interesting and to the punch. The greatest suffering is having information trickle fed at the rate for the lowest common denominator in that class. My uni did a lot of 'diversity' student appointment too so there were inadequately unintelligent people in the class so everything dragged so slowly because they couldn't get it.

[@AnthsLawSchool]

I've learned a lot about sound recording and postproduction in the couple of years since I recorded this one. Hopefully things are a lot better now. I really was just learning back then :) I'm glad you found the video helpful!

[@longreefbeach]

Trespass to land .. if they enter illegally (no legal authority and big no entry and private signs.. and a locked gate which they broke into) and they didn’t leave when told to 15 times… it’s two tortious acts, right?

[@AnthsLawSchool]

Looks to me like the trespass is one continuous tort, but then there's also the potential criminal side: breaking into a locked gate can be breaking and entering.

[@longreefbeach]

[@phoebethomas3027]

Hey, I was wondering say for example a person collapses in and another person gives him him mouth-to-mouth resuscitation and also tries to administer cardiac compression treatment, leaving him bruised, could that potentially amount to battery. (Say these ppl r not medical professionals)

[@AnthsLawSchool]

Hi Phoebe, in the video I do cover the potential liability of rescuers. It really varies a lot from jurisdiction to jurisdiction. Generally speaking, though, sudden emergency is a defence to an accusation of battery. It's similar to a situation where, say, a person pushes a child out of the way of an oncoming car. It technically meets the definition of battery, but the argument would be that due to the emergency there was lawful justification. But each case really does turn on its own facts.

Victims compensation claims are a fucking joke. If you claim someone called you sir instead of ma'am you'll make a mint, but if your home is invaded, smashed up, and tens of thousands of dollars of shit taken expect zero compensation.

[@AnthsLawSchool]

It's certainly true that victims compensation (which is auxiliary to the criminal law) and tort law give wildly different levels of compensation. However issues of gender discimination in Australia are dealt with under the Human Rights Act. It would take something very significant for there to be a large financial order under that legislation, certainly something more than an unfortunate choice of pronouns.
