Synopsis
Fundamentals of commercial law emphasising the Australian approach. The nature of commercial
law from a functional perspective and need for reform of the law of sale in Australia. Overview of
personal property and concepts of transfer of ownership and bailment. Major topics are law of
agency (types of agents, their authority and power, agency and other legal relationships), transfer
of property in goods (contract of sale, transfer and reservation of property, transfer of title and
remedies for the sale of goods), law of partnership (nature and formation of partnerships,
relationship of partners amongst themselves, liability of partners, dissolution of partnerships and
limited partnerships).

Mode of delivery
Clayton (Day)
The courseaims to providea non-exhaustive"survey" of various seperate, but potentially
interrelated, legal topics experiencedbycertain businesses in Australia.
It is ideally designed for law students who have an interest in advising, or dealing with,small-mid
(B2B and B2C) businesses,who may have alreadyhad some practical and
commercialexperiences through a seasonal clerkship, paralegal workor in other professional
contexts.

Inaddition to those subjects noted as pre-requisites for this course, students that have undertaken
and enjoyed core subjectssuch asCorporations Law, Equity and Property Law, may also be
attracted to this subject.

As noted in the Synopsis above, the course brings together disparate topics. Although some of
these topics may be interrelated, this course does not aim to provide some unifying theme behind
the various topics. Rather, the purposes of this course include providing:

a solelyintroductory glimpse intovarious separate legal issues that some Australian

businesses may encounter, such as, for example,those that either wholly or partially use a
non-corporate form of relationship for the purposes of dealing in the domestic or
international sale of goods;
a basicunderstanding of some selectedlegal issues encountered inbusiness relationships
thatarenot necessarily or primarilycorporate(i.e. agency and partnerships) - Topics 1 and
2;
a very introductoryoverview of the legal frameworks facing the domestic and international
sale of goods - Topic 3;
an introduction to the law of insurance - Topic 4;
an introduction to some fundamentalbanking and lending law concepts, including the basic
laws of guarantees, consumer credit and negotiable instruments - Topics 5-7; and

an introduction to the basic principles of the law of personal insolvency or bankruptcy - Topic

an introduction to the basic principles of the law of personal insolvency or bankruptcy - Topic
8.

While there are many aspects of the course that are applicable to organisations or natural persons
carrying out theirbusinesses through the corporate form, there are also some aspects of
thecourse that interface morewith individuals or non-corporate forms oforganisationin
commerce(such as the topics on partnership,consumer credit andpersonal insolvency).

The course is divided into 8topics. The first threetopics (on non-corporate forms of business
relationships and sale of goods) will collectively account forthe first 6 weeks (or one half) of the
course. Thereafter, one new topic will be covered each week, except in the final week (week 12),
which will be reserved for revision.

Each week's lectures will be delivered intotwo 1.5 hour classes on two different days. Students
will be expected to have completed reading noted in the Reading Guide for each topic before the
first class addressing that topic (especially in relation to the readings that areto be prioritised,
whichare noted in bold in the Reading Guide).

Lectures will not be recorded. Students with study, professional or other commitments that may
affecttheir ability to regularly attend classesin-person should not enrol in this subject without the
Chief Examiner's prior written approval.

Workload requirements
Minimum total expected workload to achieve the learning outcomes for this unit is 144 hours per
semester typically comprising a mixture of scheduled learning activities and independent study.
The unit requires on average three/four hours of scheduled activities per week. Scheduled
activities may include a combination of teacher directed learning, peer directed learning and online
engagement.

in-semester assessment (such as to obtain extensions of due dates for assignments or deferment

application must be supported by documentary evidence and are subject to time limits. An
adjustment of marks is not an available outcome of special consideration.

collusion and cheating, and should make sure that they both fully acquaint themselves with the
University statement on plagiarism referred to above and to the further information in the:

University Discipline Statute 4.1

http://www.monash.edu.au/pubs/calendar/statutes/statutes04.html
University Plagiarism Procedures
http://www.policy.monash.edu/policybank/academic/education/conduct/plagiarismprocedures.html

action arising out of their conduct in the course of study, including disciplinary action with respect
to plagiarism and cheating. Applicants are also required to make their own disclosure of
disciplinary matters (as is the case generally for admission to legal practice). For details, see the
Disclosure Guidelines for Applicants for Admission to the Legal Profession,which can be

Feedback to you
All assignments will have feedback in a combination of one or more of the following methods:
1. in the form of a marking guide which is attached to each paper and with comments included

14

1. in the form of a marking guide which is attached to each paper and with comments included
on each paper,
2. uploading a HD sample answer to Moodle,
3. providing individual consultation or individual written comments,
4. holding a review class.
Students should make themselves familiar with the marking criteria. With this in mind if a student
believes that they have not received adequate feedback on their assignments they should contact
their lecturer. If students are still not satisfied with the feedback they have obtained then they
should contact the Chief Examiner. If this still does not amount to the student gaining appropriate
feedback then they should contact the relevant program Director.
Students should note that there is a policy of no remarking of assignments unless there has been
a demonstrated error.
Feedback on exams:
Students are also entitled to know where they went wrong and how they can improve with regard
to exams. Students can request a copy of the exam paper (at no charge). Students should firstly
gain a copy of the exam and then make a time see their stream teacher/lecturer to gain
appropriate feedback.
If they are still not satisfied with the feedback they should contact the Chief Examiner. All failed
exam papers are double marked with the higher of the two marks being given to the student.
With regard to both assignments and exams students are entitled to know why they got the mark
they did but marks will not be changed unless there has been a demonstrated error
Post exam feedback:
Exam Feedback can be provided by making an appointment with the Chief Examiner after
receiving a final grade for the exam

Your feedback to us
One of the formal ways students have to provide feedback on teaching and their learning
experience is through the Student Evaluation of Teaching and Units (SETU) survey. The feedback
is anonymous and provides the Faculty with evidence of aspects that students are satisfied with
and areas for improvement.

Previous student evaluations of this unit

In response to the last SETU of this unit, the following changes have been made:
The classes will be more discursive and seminar-based, seeking greater input from students.
More "Further Reading" material will also be noted in the Reading Guide to provide students with
further guidance on issues touched on in the subject.
