In direct bribery, the offender agrees to
perform or performs an act or refrains from doing
something, because of the gift or promise; in
indirect bribery, it is not necessary that the
officer should do any particular act or even
promise to do an act, it is enough that he accepts
the gifts offered to him by reason of his office.
ENUMERATION
(Define)
Example:
What is Negligence? What test can you do to
determine such?
Negligence is the omission to do something
which
a
reasonable
man,
guided
by
those
considerations
which
ordinarily
regulate
the
conduct of human affairs, would do, or the doing
of something which a prudent and reasonable man
would do.
The test by which to determine the existence of
negligence in a particular case maybe stated as
follows: Did the defendant in doing the alleged
negligent act use that reasonable care and caution
which an ordinary prudent person would have used
in the same situation?
If not, he is guilty of negligence. The law
here in effect adopts the standard supposed to be
supplied by the imaginary conduct of the discreet
paterfamilias of the Roman law. The existence of
negligence in a given case is not determined by
reference to the personal judgement of the actor
in the situation before him. The law considers
what would be reckless, blameworthy, or negligent
in the in the man or ordinary intelligence and
prudence and determines liability to that.
