Thank you, teag1rl. The point of the forum is for people to find the answers to any questions they may have, yes. Is it here to help lazy law students to pass exams, or more likely, gain a pass from an assignment? Surely not!
Jack asks quite a few legal questions on a variety of topics - so if he's not a fly law student, then he must be a serial criminal, or just incredibly unlucky. Personally, I think he's just a cheat, and that's put genuine students at a disadvantage, and increases the risk of universities placing more emphasis on exams in place of continuous assessment due to internet cheating. So if your not happy, Nether, tough!
If the Act is genuine, the questioner, (the law school) is asking Jack to go find legislation. Once found, is it current? If so, interpret the statute and apply the known facts to the law, deciding if an offence was committed. If the Act is fictitious then it would appear the questioner is asking you to treat the Act as if it were real for the purposes of the assignment (I'd imagine you'd be told this). If so, Jack may wish to consider issues like Mens Rea, Strict Liability, the Reverse Burden of Proof, and possibly Human Rights issues. Because the word 'accidentally' provides a clue - but interestingly, so does 'Aussies' question!
It is impossible to tell whether the 'Protection of Sea Life Act' exists or not without visiting the law library. Just cos it's not on the OPSI website doesn't mean it's not current law. So in fact Nether, the "advice" I gave Jack was much more helpful than your's. You might pass an exam or two by cheating, but in the end, a lawyer has to know how to find the law for his/herself. Jack is far more likely to be a good student or future practitioner if he does his own work, instead of getting you, or I, to do the work for him. It's hard work, but it's supposed to be.
