Statutory Interpretation and Memorandum Writing

Why Attend

The course is primarily concerned with the formulation of binding legal texts. These include: laws, regulations, and decisions issued by the executive authority, contracts, instruments, and others. Drafting does not require citing legal documents and is generally free of personal influence. The linguistic style used in drafting all legal documents rarely changes. Linguistic style refers to the linguistic features and structures used in writing a legal document. All drafters of legal documents use roughly the same linguistic features, characteristics, and structures. Therefore, while the form (or template) varies from one document to another, all legal documents generally use the same linguistic style.
