Whenever I dwell for any length of time on my own shortcomings, they gradually begin to seem mild, harmless, rather engaging little things, not at all like the defects in other people's characters.

Anyone want to do this and save me the effort...

Case summary: Wonderland was a busy adventure theme park, The Park attracted bus many tourists. At least 30 buses a day would arrive; all disgorging tourists who were wealthy and spent a large avg per person.

Local Council had passed a by-law that charged businesses in the Council’s jurisdiction with a ‘Bus Road Use Fee’. A business was required to pay the Council $20 per bus carrying tourists arriving specifically at a business premises. The purpose of the fee was to assist in road maintenance throughout the Council’s district.

Wonderland paid the fees for each bus arrival over a period of two years. Wonderland factored the fee in its pricing for its entrance fees.

Nameless person, the daughter of the CEO of Wonderland, had recently graduated from law school. She discovered that Wonderland paid these fees to the Council. She was suspicious that the payment was wrong. Through her diligent research, she discovered that the Greedy Council was ultra vires in passing the ‘Bus Road Use Fee’ by-law.

Wonderland have decided to take the Council to task for demanding the payments made for each bus arrival.

Advise on the liklyhood of success and what recompense if any might the company receive?

please explain some terms for me matty... ultra vires?

but from what i can tell, since wonderland has already factored the the extra expence into admission prices they have been passing the brunt of the cost onto the paying patrons, so for them to have a case they will have to inform all affected priviouse customers, they really dont have a case cos they didnt bear the brunt of the cost bu instead passed it onto the customers, the resulting could actually mean they have to lower their admistion fee as the council will not be able to apply the tax...

well that how i see it lol buit i dont really know the leagal system....

Wrong, but good effort :P It's all to do with unjust enrichment...the customers have nothing to do with it as they paid the admission price to Wonderland and didn't pay any fee to the council directly. The fee was payed by Wonderland hence why they are suing.

Jade said find the answer to this :P

Remedies -Tutorial 7, Week 8

Reading: Covell & Lupton, Chapter 4

Question 1

a) Sparks Electrical Pty Ltd [sparks] manufactured electronic components for aeroplanes. Sparks employed 120 workers. Of these, 20 were experts in their field. The experts were not on the Sparks’ payroll as they were independent contractors. They billed Sparks for their services. The contractors did, however, work on the Sparks’ premises.

Greedy Local Council had passed a by-law that charged businesses in the Council’s jurisdiction with an “Use Road Fee”. The manufacturer or business was required to pay the Council $1000 per annum for each worker that attended the business premises. The purpose of the fee was to assist in road maintenance throughout the Council’s district.

Sparks paid the fees for its 120 workers over a period of five years. Bright Spark, the director’s daughter, had recently graduated from law school. She discovered that Sparks paid this fee to the Council. She was suspicious that the payment was wrong. Bright also learned that 20 of the workers were not “workers” as defined by the Council’s by-law. The by-law defined a worker as an emloyee of the company. Because the contractors were true independent contractors they would be exempted from the by-law.

Bright and the Company decided to take the Council to task for taking the payments made for the independent contractors. Will she succeed? What recompense might she recover for the company?

b) Through her diligent research, Bright discovered that the Greedy Council was ultra vires in making the “Use Road Fee” by-law. Does this make any difference to her case?

this is the big question I have no f*ckin idea how to answer....3000 words on this....

“Nowhere under Queensland law is the age-old tension between ‘principle, policy and rule’ better illustrated than in its approach to police powers over individuals”

Billy Billshut, prospective Liberal candidate for the State seat of Bundamindah, 14 January 2007.

Do you agree with the suggestion that ‘police powers over individuals’ provide a fertile source of material for a study of the “policy, principle, rule” trilogy? Illustrate your answer with copious numbers of examples.

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      By jtha7 · Posted

      Ps i found the below forum and it seems to be the same scenario Im dealing with. Going to check my ECU coolant temp wire tomorrow    From NICOclub forum: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Thu Apr 11, 2013 7:23 am I am completely lost on this. Car ran perfectly fine when I parked it at the end of the year. I took the engine out and painted the engine bay, and put a fuel cell with an inline walbro 255 instead of the in tank unit I had last year. After reinstalling everything, the engine floods when the fuel pump primes. if i pull the fuel pump fuse it'll start, and as soon as I put the fuse back in it starts running ridiculously rich. I checked the tps voltage, and its fine. Cleaned the maf as it had some dust from sitting on a shelf all winter, fuel pressure is correct while running, but wont fire until there is less than 5psi in the lines. The fuel lines are run correctly. I have found a few threads with the same problem but no actual explanation of what fixed it, the threads just ended. Any help would be appreciated. Rb25det s1 walbro255 fuel pump nismo fpr holset hx35 turbo fmic 3" exhaust freddy intake manifold q45tb q45 maf   Re: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Fri Apr 12, 2013 5:07 am No, I didn't. I found the problem though. There was a break in one of the ecu coolant temp sensor wires. Once it was repaired it fired right up with no problems. I would have never thought a non working coolant temp sensor would have caused such an issue.

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      By jtha7 · Posted

      Hi sorry late reply I didnt get a chance to take any pics (my mechanics on the other side of the city) but the plugs were fouled from being too rich. I noticed the MAF wasn't genuine, so I replaced it with a genuine green label unit. I also swapped in a different ignitor, but the issue remains. I've narrowed it down a bit now: - If I unplug and reconnect the fuel lines and install fresh spark plugs, the car starts right up and runs perfectly. Took it around the block with no issues - As soon as I shut it off and try to restart, it won't start again - Fuel pressure while cranking is steady around 40 psi, injectors have good spray, return line is clear, and the FPR vacuum is working. It just seems like it's getting flooded after the first start I unplugged coolant sensors to see if its related to ECU flooding but that didnt make a difference. Im thinking its related to this because this issue only started happening after fixing coolant leaks and replacing the bottom part of the stock manifolds coolant pipe. My mechanic took off the inlet to get to get to do these repairs. My mechanics actually just an old mate who's retired now so ill be taking it to a different mechanic who i know has exp with RBs to see if they find anything. If you have any ideas please send em lll give it a try. Ive tried other things like swapping the injectors, fuel rail, different fuel pressure regs, different ignitor, spark plugs, comp test and MAF but the same issue persists.

      Freddy Plenum vs Genuine options RB25

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      My return flow is custom and puts the return behind the reo, instead of at the bottom. All my core is in the air flow, rather than losing some of it up behind the reo. I realise that the core really acts more as a spiky heatsink than as a constant rate heat exchanger, and that therefore size is important.... but mine fits everything I needed and wanted without having to cut anything, and that's worth something too. And there won't be a hot patch of core up behind the reo after every hit, releasing heat back into the intake air.
