27:24 U hearing betters remember Vootes right so now we are dealing with what with the footes are not yet dealing with the bibliography remember when it comes to food notes even if it's one you still make use of of just initial right even if it's one for the footnotes right it's still there initials but the bibliography we've got one we are not going to make use of their initials but they are full when it comes to the bibliography so it would be

28:12 love people that's why they are so vocal right so you would put J and right and then what's the title of your textbook exercise and still seeing wonders when we mark the assignment title of the textbook ng it title of the textbook not addition title

28:57 exactly i saw a lot of people saying law of person i a lot of people saying law of person it is the south african law of person I know Patrika we can bet now will be people will say love person 27wh seven we will see i not joking names for this south african law Perga South Africa s capital capital

31:24 in praket Khanyi prakit 2021. the page number if you don't put the page number in your footnotees then you are telling me that in that paragraph you have reference the whole textbook or you don't know where you got the work from in your textbook you don't know you got the work from so it's important that you tell me the page number otherwise it mean you don't know the page that you then with that

32:10 right so it would Dj the african law of it in brackets and the page number. guys we see things we see things you will find a person they probably answering something in chapter one meaning each one of the first am few twintana pages and they will say page 605 just so that they makegracious out of their skin and you find 5.5.

32:59 Wat is that? So don't try these funny things. You look at the page number the page number is in front of you and you put a full stop at the end. Okay, there's no need to put P or P or whatever just put the page number correct number , page 1000 that time only at each Okay. Perfect. so that is how you would reference your law of person's textbook , so if you are making use of any other ehm ehm textbook you would use the same ehm ehm technique right and I hope the

33:45 people that have done legal English you following me and i really hope youve gained some understanding right so that is how you would do it in your foot not so uh vootes ladies and gentlem is it when you typing your work you use word right you use word to type the assignment so there on top in the next few slides there is there there is there there's basically where you're going to insert and then it's going to automatically come at the end of your page right then you just put your full stop now a bibliography which will come at the end of your document right you would mention the authors full name jailine and you would put their surname and it South African law of person six

34:34 addition and then you close it off with 2021 in brackets you don't put the page number and for every other textbook that is there you do the same thing remember when you do your bibliography you have a heading that says books you need to reference those books in alphabetical order alphabetical order so if administrative law in South Africa it starts with the right administrative law in South Africa so that would be the first textbook that would appear in your bibliography and book alphabetical order very important for your bibliography okay

35:19 if it's more than two authors you still make use of initial even in your bibliography if it's more than two authors but for purposes Af so their name in the bibliography guys hop you will get this right because ially al i'll be yah when you lona to look your waste your time not make sure because we re really covered your book you

37:37 the same chapter you can literally each put at the end of of that paragraph right it doesn't have to come at the end of the sentence Let's 10 to page 15 that chapter. right so that's how you insert it in your word document and then you of course move also teaching you just check the chat but yah just check for what Patricia is giving you okay take questions now because you guys are going to flood the chat box and we gonna

38:24 end up this session Ok when we look in afrikaans initial surname author inhal the title original published right in the surname of the translator and the year and then the page number

39:13 is the original author capital in itali is the title of the book 186 seven it's the year in which the original eh book was published in brackets trans mean translator jmor and jated book 1976 and then you close and one to 1 is the page number so if you happen to come across a book that has been translated that is how it would appear on your foot notes Okayright ehm

39:58 Chap in books still very as you see as important speaks of similarites reference refer noot footn please

40:43 articles cannot i articles ladies here can please shownem cl Endoot can shown when you refer it to be the page where you started page

41:31 to page 10 is that if one page it's the very same thing each add ehm page if unless unless you're taking it from different ehm pages not consecutively just put a commit 5 page 7 page 12 right as simple as that let us look at articles ladies and gentlemen let us look at articles books so how to reference chapters and books that reference articles

42:17 you give the authors initial sur quotation followed by the surname of the editor followed by the full title of the article italics in brackets first page of the article or chapter and the page is reference right now articles find in book

43:04 [ukuhonqa] in a journal know whatever the case why the slides now moving so fast group [ukumemeza] there we go right here we are aile so m ramosa here the the author right there are initial and surname said ladies gentlemen in single

43:53 quotation marks right there by number single quotationks ubuntu affirming right and south africa and then you shows your quotation right and then initial surname of the editor right so that would be alig and s magadla and then in brackets of course it's EBS basically the editors right then full title of article chapter in italics right so in Italics

44:39 as you can see ubuntuch and then 2014 would be the year right 14 in brackets and then those are the page numbers so it's coming page 121 page 136 accept if you are Excel international,

45:28 nemhum put ed it's eh the editor and then africa and the future of international criminal justice in italics and then in brackets a publication year and then those are the pages right so that is how ladies and gentlemen you would make reference to chapters and books or articles are in books right straight forward not so different from reference the book okay

46:17 take right now we look at how to make reference to journal articles how to make reference to journal articles soalm anyone is it a primary source or a secondary source primary or secondary as it think everyone is commited so you can just stop ah you see someone said primaris secondary because if someone else analysis someone else's point of

47:03 as a source of law right ok so how do you make reference to to a journal article so you would give authors initial and surname right and then full title in single quotation marks right in in in brackets the year number, right? And then the name of the journal in italic page of the article right and the page that is referenced ladies and gentlemen when we are dealing with journals.

47:52 that you understand what a journal is and that a journal is a journal that includes different articlesm in it and it has different volumes right so let us look at this so dra would be e the author right dra is the author author in single italifications

48:41 application ofation in purple is number here righte number right and then in it ladies and gentlemen would be the name of the journal right and this journal where we find this article is the african human rights law journal so that you would put in Thaics right and then it would be the the first page of the article remember ladies gentlemen a journal has

49:29 various articles in it so it's imortant that you make reference to the very first page where start in this case it starts on page 294 page each referencing is 299. so the journal is the african human rights law journal that has dra in it published in 2008 in the eighth volume of that journal right and the first page of that article is page 294 but you are making reference to page 299

50:16 right so Simple straight forward that is how i want to see in your footnotes another example adol is the author of this article right and this article in single quote you open it the reality of theit nations principles on business and human rights you close in ladies gentlemen it's not your date of birth epatricia would this we find things up you make

51:03 sources up you literally can you guys are very creative please don't make these things up because we will see if you've made it up and if the source doesn't exist okay 2014 in brackets number3 3 but

51:54 simple straight forward eh So when you do your bibliography you don't have to include the page number but it's the very same thing and if you can look at this identical to how we've made reference to the books. right but now in this case we've got a a journal that comes in itali and then we've got the title of the article in single Easy peas straight forward ladies gentlemen and with referencega this practice perfect you might not be able to tackle on the first goal urug but it's just practice

52:40 that you as okay now we come to cross referencing cross ehm books chapters and journal weve got the famous word some of your assignment we onlyit and then you got what Ya. Okay. So, I want I just want to to use for explaining cross reference i want to use. this slide eh

53:28 where we talk of referencing cases at netown ladies. Cross referencing makes things easier. you as the writer and for us as the mark right so instead of you making reference to the enthare ehm ehm ehm eh article and the journal and the volume and what if you made reference to previously

54:16 you cross reference if it's in a different page or maybe five footes note where the case and page reference is the same as in the footnote immediately

55:01 presiding the footne. Soadies and gentlemen if you have made reference you said in vootnote number one you inserted fotote number one you said in it you said the south african law of person you've said six in brackets you written one and you said page 121 if in footnote number you a reference to same ehm ehm a textbook each iba. Right if it's foot number two that's

55:48 where you put iright if it happens that yes it's still jm it's the same textbook same addition same everything but it's a different page number right you would say ibre six right mean meaning that it's the same source but it's in a Right now each paragraph you

56:34 are in in foot number muchote number 10 person's textbook Jen the addition for the law person textbook right now foot note number 10 remember you made full reference to your textbook in note number one then you said in foot note number two then you said eh or maybe 136 input note number three because it's a different page now in voote number 10 you still want to make

57:19 reference of the textbook you would say note above and you put your page number meaning that in footnote number 10 making reference tootnote number one above which is my law of persons textbook everything is the same but now i'm reference to page 350 so that's when you would say note 1 ehm above and the page number reference to this really this smes cross reference iin know but

58:06 if you don't for this Take home assignment exam whatever you are oomed [uvula umphimbo] is very important content if you pl and reference at try to be very close to what I'm teaching you then it's a problem so youve dot the bullet of sitting in an exam setting all that but the referencing is very crucialm Easy like that. okay so this is now where you are cross referencing meaning that you have made a full reference that particular source earlier and then

58:53 in subsequent footnotes you want to make reference to the same ehm ehm textbook but in a different eh page right so if it's immediately after then you would use ebit immediately after but with a different page then E and that page number if it's a few foot notes later you would say note 8 or note remember the note it's saying go and take note of eh fotnote number 2 because input note number I've told you that it's the law south african law of person ever

59:39 you put some light guys at the end of the tunnel i know the light come now for every but at least there needs to be light for some of you said this is not a walk in the park practise okay so that's how you cross reference ladies gentlemen even if a journal whatever may this is how you cross reference right uhm i'm going to try to also project practical examples patric if also in the time you some practical examples of maybe assignment that was

1:00:25 reference we can maybe project for them to see the full reference and ifric you can ass to show them okay so that was cross referencing ladies for your books and for your articles it's the very very same thing right Okay the hand

1:01:14 to to cases Okay ng now ladies and gentlemen you South African case laws Right now where you would someone ask about about intakes right so this is when you make reference to case laws of course it would be in your main text and also in your footn and bibliography right so an example when you making reference first time

1:02:08 It would say for instance in the case of brown versus white in it you made reference to the parties And then when you now make reference to the same case but in a subsequent. paragraph you can only make reference to the main party for example in brown still in it then you continue in brown whatever the case may be right so this is in text right now in your main text when you come to your foot and your bibliography ladies gentlemen we expect the full case name as you can

1:02:54 Brown versus white bracket essay that your journal article in 347. and then c in brackets would be the court which matter so this comes in your footes and in your bibliography right let's let's come and look it it's clear here we makingreported cases guys thisint you

1:03:40 use of ofreported cases right so please do not worry too much this make sense to you later when you are makingreported cases all the cases are prescribed your study guide all reported cases okay so basically each case name right case name code division We your high court cap in bracket number of judgement

1:07:49 >> perfect okay so that is how you do it ladies and gentlemen when you are afteced with a case law right? Ehm just trying to think of a think Of any of case in techs we are making it for the first time we want to see both parties in italics remember always in italics right don't be la to to change to italics right then later on you can make amm reference to the firstpart the main party and then footnotes and

1:08:37 bibliography as simple easy peasy and then when we do cross referencing it's what i just explained to you now if you making reference to paragraphs first bank limited vesus kruger service one ehm essay journal 533 in the supreme court of appealing brackets and then those are the pages 538 pages case

1:10:57 >> [ukuhonqa] >> Mark my word [ukuhonqa] 1996 And then for subsequent references meaning when you make reference the constitution again later you would just say the constitution right you would never ever refer to the constitution as the 1996 constitution the final constitution if you mention the constitution in the text you do not

1:11:43 need to mention it in the footnote and youont mention eh the constitution in the foot note if you haven't told me in your ma text that you are making reference to the constitution so basically I don't want to see any footnot that has the constitution just make reference to it in text right first time in full then the simple as that in your bibliography it would be asion of the republic of South Africa 1996 in your bibliography Righton

1:20:27 can see a [uvula umphimbo] >> Okay struggling school maybe stop thing it is actually just so it will be able to follow me you see

1:21:15 >> we can see >> thank you so the first reion was the لا ihlal surname use and surname and inverted

1:22:02 comas marks she put the title she puts the year the or issue she puts the name of the journal in italics and she puts the page numbers right and then the second thing that we can look at a textbook so we go up here she put a statement and then she puts a footnote after the punctuation mark you scroll down you will see that she referhenced the author associous said if it's multiple authors in the footnote you put initial surame initial surname all of that in italix law of intellectual property south africa she put a year in bracket each number and full

1:22:49 And then we look at the use of i which i canook something above and it's a minor mistake foot number work so as I mentioned that sometimes in law you are to state that in the case of SC Magwanyane you can just say the court decided without telling us in which case this is not counted as inex referrencing this is proper academic legal writing so in shouldes versus but

1:23:37 comma grammar allows let me just say the grammar needs a comma so in this case comma the dispute so she puts the footnote after the punctuation mark so if there is no punctue i don't think there is situation where there is no punctuation but if there is no punctuation mark in what you want to reference you put it at the end of the sentence so if here allowation mark the food come after the full stop day after competitor She puts the footnote and then she comes down here to reference the case name is in itali. You can see versus part and

1:24:24 the year. The volume in brackets the law report then the court so the stands for previously the app which is now the supreme court of appeal. And then we can scroll down more to see if there is any other sources that you referred to that are different. uh this is still the articles uh ibal article as well puts itali

1:25:10 article articles name in 2008 or number of all these assignment you find that same for and again with case law but we can quickly go down so you can see here every time she talks about a case even if it's in the body it's an italic so case names always it scroll down there is more referencing

1:25:57 there is uses of the note something above uhm let me quickly scroll down So you will see here in conclusion there is no foot note at all because conclusions are your own view you are drawing your own opinions and most cases uhm you would have to reference if you are referring to the constitution according to the constitution according to the session you would have to reference that is mostly your own shees the bibliography she list the bibliography order appear once it's not because she referred to this textbook three times

1:26:43 now to come she uses the main reference ashi has mentioned you see here in the books tour also LF alphabetical order here alising our sec out of food shephy out of she if someone is

1:27:34 but script foot they list them asgas after each and every question there will be not properly formotes like Wees from here in middle of the page you were shown you were told you still do english we better

1:28:21 you don't want to do better then you alif so that I know urg gracious with >> Patricia Patricia hasown but remembers referencing years to master referencing so we want at least you guys to try that why to you

1:29:07 if you are able to reference your law of person's textbook and you are also able to cross reference meaning you are able toit ehm eh or say note what above right you've got you got an understanding of how to reference legislation you've got an understanding on how to reference case law i don't think we've got articles but if there are articles Don't wait until you answer with the Patricia.

1:35:50 Google on the sles you will see how to L from how you want to be copied when you used Google it's very simple on on the referencing slide definitely Google scholar you can. Okay Kenneth right let me just come back Lifa mabuza >> Sibonge and sibulise kumanene

1:36:37 namanenekazi. Wewe nencon. Note i was left behind structure to sate in 5 to say that we a writing a bibliography after each variaths >> lastly a saw with the note thereown

1:37:24 abo one nabo 2 nabo 3 that when you write one does automatically go >> ok so bibliography comes at the end of your assignment right it's all the sources together assignment each of mm project reference instead 3

1:38:21 My question behind >> each weont my apologist >> we are talking apology >> ok so when it comes to ibit we said ibit it's we use it for cross referencing so let's say as you are starting your assignment right the first question if coming from from let's say it's a question about domestic

1:39:09 chapter I'm not sure what it is you I'm just an example right and then you have reference for the very first time your textbook Jen the South African law of person nice in italient one youve got page 10 write that your footnote number one and you were answering it's question domestic right now to come to question number two right eh question number two eh let's say maybe eh or let's say one point let's say one is one3 now you answering one

1:39:57 is still making reference to domicile right and you now want to reference akeh right to the same under the same discussion question 1.1 in page 120 right and you are answering this for example 1.2 is still talking about types of domiciles and it's in the same page which is page 120 so you would go there and say reference instead footnote and it would say number two right and you would just say ibit. Why are you saying i you are making

1:40:43 reference to the very thing that you just made reference to just previously in the very previous footnote and it's in the same page as well but if you are making reference to still you are answering in one point about dom right but in a different page number right you would say ehm page 125 to show that it's the same textbook it's the same but it's now in page 125 al right that's you would say 125 let's say you are not doing three right

1:41:29 question 3 in the page each of your assignment for making Right status minority but still in in in footnote number one you said Jen the South African law of person in bracket 2021 and you put your page

1:42:17 number you would then go and say eh let's say now ish number four and foot note number 15 for instance you would therefore go back and say note 1 above Loud >> for you

1:43:04 what above and then the page number. al right so you are telling us that earlier much much earlier on you did make full reference to this invo what right each page each crossing same with journal or articles same every Cool. Practice makes perfectly guys weve got 10 minutes

1:44:02 Benedict. Hello. Hi sir, hell. >> Uma. Oh you guys were muted sorry okay let's go back to Senzo O Senzo you can go back to >> is here Senzo >> to Senzo >> thank you nok you answered my when

1:45:44 Even klein can do not do the applicable to to to the lessons that we have learn today at least it would make things easier for some of us to understand properly food reference just to break down for us thank you >> ok sir so we aud reference

1:46:29 footnote is part of referencing so vele it's like your assignment in front of you and use different sources to answer your question right so as you are conducting research to avoid plurism that is your referencing and that is foodotes come in vootes as I've just been explaining to you basically tell us where you got that information right where you got that information because it's not coming from your head

1:47:15 you got from somewhere and we need to know who is the original author of the information you are putting in your assignment so you make use of sources we discuss primur and secry sources and we were discussing just not so long ago your textbook right so you are answering a question on on domicile you referrence the text book you put eh you don't do text right you only do for case laws and for the constitution but for everything else it's food not voote I've shown you I've put a screenshot there of of where you will find eh how to insert foot notes on your word you say reference insert foot notes then automatically at

1:48:01 the bottom of your page it will show number one then you put your foot notes as I've taught you then at the end of your documents after you finish your assignment you put a bibliography a bibliography is a summary of all the legal sources that you have used in your assignment so everything that is in the foot would come in the bibliography as a nice summary at the end of your assignment so that is what we are making reference to when we are talking referrening nation

1:51:08 Mina I don't remember saying you must take it infact i said you must take it serious because now remember you not doing the exam in 3 hours you doing and assignment so that means referenceing becomes very serious don't be yourself if you don't understand it now explaining in class takes practice you don't start doing a assignment the as minimal case lahmislate

1:51:56 assignment have sources assignment and this record will be upload Jet number.

Nour sorry

1:53:34 i unless you have some sources. >> [uhleko] >> Jet above and the page number not if it is for the very next ehm eh note if everything else is this if it's the same source

1:54:21 if it's the same source but just a different page number than ibit that page number after that is the it's the initial surname in brackets node what above the page number books and journal for your cases what above the page number you probably not enough to use case law so those sources

1:55:08 Thank you very much. So it's iatebo the above thank you >> Yes if the same okay alright >> okay >> ok let us move and to polish our law of person our assembla said the right but als this for us to polishhe eh polish our content refresh our memories eh chapter 1 it was definitions or introduction where we saw that law of person under private law right and we

1:55:55 had the definition of what law of person is then we did beginning and end of legal subjectivity said birth one must be born alive fiction to say what can the law do to protect death but also presumption of one

1:56:42 missing what happens right so that's beginning and end then we looked at right we said that there are several things that affect a person's status right and we spoke of if your status is affected that means affects your legal capacity capacity to act capacity to be healthy for crimes and deligs uh yeah that with domicile we can have more than a time we spoke of of how can assign dom and we said do not confuse citizenship

1:57:32 with domicil be careful also when we try to confuse you with different countries and we said they got married where you remember we did a question where there was the last domicili to say the lax domicili of the husband is what governments the matal property system right so go and have a look at that and also legislation there act is very relevant there so that is where now your food and referening comes in right because there is this case law there and legislation there even for beginning and end of legal personality there is your boodle spin come there is yours

1:58:18 there is a lot of case laws there reference is very important right there is also termination of pregnancy when we look at beginning and end of personality there DNA testing

1:59:04 with created how is those things and look afford to fathers when it comes to children that was in chapter 5 is there is also a lot of case law as for purposes of of research and foodnoting and and then we looked at minority right to say what what can a minor do what can a minor not do when does a miner need to be assisted by the garden when can they act on their own when is a m emated to say that they are

1:59:50 given authority to act like a major and ladies and gentlemen we discussed a lot of remed Restitut integram we discuss negotium we discuss a lot of you need to know when those are applicable for instance when a miner entrance into a contract assisted by their guardian and they selling something that falls upon them to say that can this contract later on bey Esopho all those are very important right and don't of minha canor beable

2:00:40 for crime dict when can be and when can be the different eight groups are important here right can they can they enter into litigation do they have local studyc a parent act on their behalf when they need to married with parent parents and if parents are concern to married can approach the high court for concern to enter into certain illness right we said what is mental illness and as said look at the case is the case

2:01:27 Which that longer versus longer all those things I want to see in your footn in your bibliography right to say the peace says if a person is not able to understand the consequences of their actions at that time right then the long case further says no even if they understand the consequences of their action but they are driven by a certain acte and the famous Maria, merry Maria, you understand what marriage is, you understand Maria because of a delusion that is in your mind, right?

2:02:16 illembly when is one ill, the interval anyanction in time inability other sickness death being blind is to act on your behalf for certain things that you lose all your capacity even with illness ladies marrias eyi ya you know that person is a toas but you go and who's otherp

2:03:02 you still equation perfect example also remember with mental illness we spoke that there are different types of mental illnesses right and it doesn't mean that if you are diagnosed with a certain mental illness that you have lost all capacity even if there's a curator that appointed a curator canot do transactions they can't marry on your behalf they can't draft the behalf they can't even take your parents rights and responsibilities so your capacity is looked atmus your current on the severity of your condition at the

2:03:49 time you need to conclude a certain transaction said influence if you found the alcohols right into alleges must prove with reasonable doubt with evidence indeed when this person killed this person they were intoxicated and they could not understand what they are doing and there is a case law that I said going if you are a particle you just the big spend right it's either you are a gambar

2:04:35 or you are under the influence of of alcohol and drugs that makes you to squad your money in an unreasonable way and then anyone that is concerned about your finances and lost all capacity of course instances you have capacity to hold a particular office in a financial institution you can't be a director right butt you can't be held liable for crime delegt capacity to act just because you practical but there are instances whereby you are limited

2:05:21 and of course is also appointed to assist you to administer your face we looked at also doesn't take away all your capacities but in certain instances limits them and we said that there are certain assets that cannot fall under thatate for example pension your personal belongings furniture clothese Ehm donations there are certain things that cannot fall under an insolving estate right yes so basically that was just what we did when it comes to law of person this is all information definition of concept
