Exercise 3
1. A situation whereby the law is unclear or has not been drafted with sufficient
precision. Such a ‘legal loophole’ can result in the law being interpreted in a way
which results in possible evasion of the purpose or protection which the law was
intended to provide.
2. This means that the court order or legal document has been drafted to cover
every possible eventuality and to prevent the purpose of the order or document
being defeated (such as by a ‘legal loophole’ as described above).
3. Jargon means professional or technical terminology used by professionals in that
particular field. Legal jargon therefore refers to professional expressions commonly
used by lawyers.
4. A member of the public who is not a member of a particular profession.
5. This means failing to comply with some important requirement or condition
which has been imposed by a court. In practice this usually relates to being in
breach of the terms of a court order.

or service contract) which prevents a person working for a competitor or
competing with a former employer for a specified period of time.

Exercise 4
Suggested draft for Section 7 of the Notice of Appearance (Form IT3):
1. The Respondent is a city firm of solicitors with its head-office in London and four
overseas offices. The firm has 40 partners and approximately 22 associate solicitors.
The Respondent specialises in international corporate and commercial work.
2. On 26 April 2007 the Respondent’s Managing Partner, Henry Moore, became
aware that £2 million had been misappropriated from the firm’s client account. It
was essential that the source of this theft be ascertained without delay in order to
safeguard the firm’s reputation.
3. The Respondent denies that the Applicant was unfairly dismissed as alleged. The
aforesaid Henry Moore made a valid managerial decision to dismiss the Applicant
based on reasonable suspicion of gross misconduct. It was reasonable for
Henry Moore to come to the conclusion that the Applicant had stolen the missing
£2 million. The Applicant was ostentatiously displaying wealth, having arrived
at work on 26 April 2007 in a new Ferrari motor car. He did not explain to the Respondent
that he had won the National Lottery. The Applicant was therefore responsible
for his dismissal as a result of his own actions.
4. Convening a disciplinary hearing would have been fruitless in the particular circumstances.
The Applicant was therefore summarily dismissed on 26 April 2007.
The Respondent had reasonable grounds to believe that the Applicant was guilty
of gross misconduct. The Respondent was accordingly entitled to dismiss the Applicant,
the dismissal being fair and reasonable in all the circumstances.
