What it covers

This unit introduces students to the equity jurisdiction of the unwritten law and the law of trusts. Within the unwritten law, equity developed to modify the rigidity of the law with the objective of achieving, fairness between parties. It now exists as a body of principles that seeks to produce individual transactional fairness and just outcomes. The concept of a trust is a major emanation of equity; as a result, this unit also examines the nature of trusts and the rights and obligations to which they give rise.
