England And Wales: Court Reluctance To Intervene In Family Relationships?
[ send me this paper ]
10 pages in length. Prior to the concept of law, man followed no organizational legal system whatsoever. Being that ancient populations were not that abundant, with large plots of land essentially keeping people separated from one another, there was no pressing need to establish any laws; however, as these populations grew, so did the necessity for legal regulation. Inasmuch as the primary manner by which people were handling their legal disputes was by method of killing, the time had come when man determined that this was no longer an acceptable behavior for what was to be
considered a civilized people; thus, a rudimentary legal system was born. The writer discusses how British and Welsh courts may be reluctant to intervene in certain issues. Bibliography lists 13 sources.

Venus, a famous pop star, applied for 10 million pounds of life insurance to MegaLife, an insurance company; as expected, the insurance company was anxious to know whether Venus was on drugs. Slick, an employee of MegaLife, telephoned Orbit's contracted Dr. Irvine Kiljoy, whose job it is to keep an eye on the health of such pop stars as Venus who are signed up with the Orbit label. Slick deceitfully told Dr. Kiljoy that Venus had consented to his supplying MegLife with information about herself, which Dr. Kiljoy believed because Venus had that very morning left the following message on his answer phone: "Kiljoy, I want you to write a report for me; it is not about my health, it is a personal business matter." Unknown to Kiljoy was the fact that this was a reference to litigation Venus was planning against a restaurant where she had been served salmonella laced soup whilst on tour promoting her latest hit single "Heavenly Body." Based upon this misunderstanding, Dr. Kiljoy told Slick all about Venus' long-standing battle with cocaine addiction; on the basis of this information, MegaLife refused Venus life insurance. When Venus learned why her life insurance application failed, she instigates tort proceedings against the doctor for breach of statutory duty. Bibliography lists 5 sources.
