I wish my head were more "together" today, because I've got a hell of a lot of work to do and I'd really like to be able to concentrate on it.

  • ADR:
    • Finish readings
    • Applications/Generator assignment

  • Property: Finders
    • White v. Alton-Lewis Ltd. et al.
    • Trachuk v. Olinek
    • Look up all the Mossman readings
    • Make list of readings I've missed so far

  • Contracts
    • Page One Records v. Britton, on QL
    • Find and print out the other QL cases
    • Payzu v. Saunders
    • White and Carter (Councils) v. McGregor
    • Finelli v. Dee
    • Asamera Oil v. Sea Oil
    • Wrote v. Tyler
    • Make list of readings I've missed so far

  • Halloween costumes: figure out how much of each cloth I need.
  • Daniel's school: get pledges for Walkathon and fill out the school picture request form.


I read a couple of moderately interesting cases for Contracts. Well, actually, the cases were deadly dull, but what was kind of interesting was that they were about breaches of contract. Anglia TV v. Robert Reid, and Warner Bros. v. Nelson.

For those who don't know (I didn't), Robert Reid was the guy who played the dad on the Brady Bunch. And Ms. Nelson was Bette Davis. Reid signed up to do a play for Anglia TV in the UK, then backed out to do a different job in the US, and Davis signed a contract that she would only work for Warner, then went to do a job for somebody else in the UK.

Later Edit:
If anybody can decipher this, please let me know what the hell it means.
Warner Bros. Pictures Inc. v. Nelson [1937] 1 K. B. 209 (Ch d.) )
