When a person dies and he made a valid will he is deemed to have died testate. In the will, there would be a named executor to the will. In some cases, there may be more than one executor. The executor would then have to obtain the grant of probate. This is the formal appointment [...]
Let us first define what is a team. A team is a group of individuals working together to achieve a common goal. This is our common goal. The CJ's Cup. It has been the SUSS School of Law football team's desire for the past two years. Let me give you some context as to what [...]
I am down to my very last semester in SUSS School of Law. It felt so recent that I entered this law school and now I am about to finish my journey. The four years in law school did seem very much shorter than the years I spent completing my first degree. I am going [...]
Call me crazy but I took part in touch rugby, football and badminton for this year's edition of the Law Fraternity Games. Call me competitive but I was genuinely there to win. I really wanted to. However, SUSS lost in all 3 sports. We are dead last out of the four organisations/ schools. The other [...]

Adults seem to think that we need to teach everything to our children. Not only do we need to teach them how to study, we need to teach them how to become better people. I have heard from many of my friends with children about how they teach children the right principles, how they correct [...]
Time flies really quickly. It is a cliche line but I have to say it. It truly feels recent that I entered law school as a freshman. Just about two and a half years later, it feels like the finishing line is so very close. Apparently I have to look for a training contract but [...]
It all started with a very random idea when we were year 1s. A bunch of us committed to this idea that we would pay a "fine" if we did not hit a minimum grade for our assignments. At the end of the semester, we would have all the fines collected and this money would [...]
