James Armstrong Chadwin QC ( 7 June 1930 - 16 January 2006 ) was a prominent British barrister , whose cases included defending Peter Sutcliffe , the Yorkshire Ripper . Chadwin was born in Glasgow and educated at the High School of Glasgow , Glasgow University ( where he read modern languages and met the woman he was to marry ) and Jesus College , Oxford . Whilst at Oxford , he was active as an actor and director in university theatre and also joined the Oxford University Air Squadron . He then spent six years in the Royal Air Force as an education officer at RAF Sandwich , his eyesight not being good enough to enable him to be a pilot . He was then called to the bar by Gray 's Inn in 1958 and joined chambers in Newcastle upon Tyne where his contemporaries included Peter Taylor , later Lord Chief Justice of England and Wales . Chadwin practised mainly in the field of criminal law and became a Queen 's Counsel in 1976 . He also became a Recorder in the same year , presiding over some trials at the Old Bailey . He was later appointed a Bencher of Gray 's Inn and , in 1988 , Leader of the Northern Circuit . Chadwin represented Peter Sutcliffe in 1981 . Sutcliffe had admitted killing 13 women and attempting to kill seven others . Four psychiatrists reported on Sutcliffe and diagnosed paranoid schizophrenia , and Sir Michael Havers QC , the Attorney-General , was prepared to accept a plea of guilty to manslaughter on the grounds of diminished responsibility . However , the trial judge , Mr Justice Boreham , refused to accept this plea and so Sutcliffe was tried for murder .
A barrister is a type of lawyer in common law jurisdictions . Barristers mostly specialise in courtroom advocacy and litigation . Their tasks include taking cases in superior courts and tribunals , drafting legal pleadings , researching the philosophy , hypothesis and history of law , and giving expert legal opinions . Barristers are distinguished from solicitors , who have more direct access to clients , and may do transactional-type legal work . It is mainly barristers who are appointed as judges , and they are rarely hired by clients directly . In some legal systems , including those of Scotland , South Africa , Scandinavia , Pakistan , India , Bangladesh , and the British Crown dependencies of Jersey , Guernsey and the Isle of Man , the word barrister is also regarded as an honorific title . In a few jurisdictions , barristers are usually forbidden from conducting litigation , and can only act on the instructions of a solicitor , who performs tasks such as corresponding with parties and the court , and drafting court documents . In England and Wales , barristers may seek authorisation from the Bar Standards Board to conduct litigation . This allows a barrister to practise in a 'dual capacity ' , fulfilling the role of both barrister and solicitor . In some countries with common law legal systems , such as New Zealand and some regions of Australia , lawyers are entitled to practise both as barristers and solicitors , but it remains a separate system of qualification to practise exclusively as a barrister .
Peter William Sutcliffe ( born 2 June 1946 ) , also known as Peter William Coonan , is a prolific English serial killer who was dubbed the Yorkshire Ripper by the press . On 22 May 1981 , Sutcliffe was convicted of murdering 13 women and attempting to murder seven others . He is serving 20 concurrent sentences of life imprisonment , which was increased to a whole life order in 2010 . All except two of his murders took place in West Yorkshire ; the others were in Manchester . Sutcliffe initially attacked women and girls in residential areas , but appears to have moved to red light districts because he was attracted by the vulnerability of prostitutes . Sutcliffe had allegedly regularly used the services of prostitutes in Leeds and Bradford . He carried out murders over five years , including women who were not prostitutes . After his arrest in Sheffield by South Yorkshire Police for driving with false number plates in January 1981 , he was transferred to West Yorkshire Police , who questioned him about the killings . He confessed to being the perpetrator , saying that the voice of God had sent him on a mission to kill prostitutes . At his trial , Sutcliffe pleaded not guilty to murder on grounds of diminished responsibility , but he was convicted of murder on a majority verdict . Following his conviction , Sutcliffe began using his mother 's maiden name of Coonan . West Yorkshire Police were criticised for their failure to catch Sutcliffe despite having interviewed him nine times in the course of their five-year investigation .
Charles David Lawson Clark ( 12 June 1933 - 6 October 2006 ) was a British publisher and lawyer , who was an authority on the law of copyright .
A law degree is an academic degree conferred for studies in law . Such degrees are generally preparation for legal careers ; but while their curricula may be reviewed by legal authority , they do not themselves confer a license . A legal license is granted ( typically by examination ) and exercised locally ; while the law degree can have local , international , and world-wide aspects- e.g. , in Britain the Legal Practice Course is required to become a British solicitor or the Bar Professional Training Course ( BPTC ) to become a barrister .
Copyright is the exclusive right given to the creator of a creative work to reproduce the work , usually for a limited time . The creative work may be in a literary , artistic , educational , or musical form . Copyright is intended to protect the original expression of an idea in the form of a creative work , but not the idea itself . A copyright is subject to limitations based on public interest considerations , such as the fair use doctrine in the United States . Some jurisdictions require fixing copyrighted works in a tangible form . It is often shared among multiple authors , each of whom holds a set of rights to use or license the work , and who are commonly referred to as rights holders . [ citation needed ] These rights frequently include reproduction , control over derivative works , distribution , public performance , and moral rights such as attribution . Copyrights can be granted by public law and are in that case considered territorial rights . This means that copyrights granted by the law of a certain state , do not extend beyond the territory of that specific jurisdiction . Copyrights of this type vary by country ; many countries , and sometimes a large group of countries , have made agreements with other countries on procedures applicable when works cross national borders or national rights are inconsistent . Typically , the public law duration of a copyright expires 50 to 100 years after the creator dies , depending on the jurisdiction . Some countries require certain copyright formalities to establishing copyright , others recognize copyright in any completed work , without formal registration .
John Duncan Martin Derrett ( 30 August 1922 - 21 October 2012 ) was Professor of Oriental Laws in the University of London , from 1965 to 1982 , and afterwards Emeritus Professor . Derrett was educated at Emanuel School , London , Jesus College , Oxford and the School of Oriental and African Studies , London and was called to the bar by Gray 's Inn in 1953 . He is the author of a number of works on law and the history of systems of law , India , religion ( particularly Christianity ) and comparative religion , latterly particularly of comparisons of Christianity with Buddhism . Derrett has also translated works by others into English . Derrett appeared briefly in Dr Robert Beckford 's television documentary The Hidden Story of Jesus ( premiered on Channel 4 on 25 December 2007 ) discussing similarities between some Christian and Buddhist teachings and possible historical reasons for those similarities . With his A Blemmya in India ( Numen Vol . 49 , No . 4 ( 2002 ) , pp . 460-474 ) Dr. Derrett argued that Blemmiya were Africans , and Buddhists , in India .
The University of London ( abbreviated as Lond or more rarely Londin in post-nominals ) is a federal [ a ] research university located in London , England . As of October 2019 [ update ] , the university contains 18 member institutions , central academic bodies and research institutes . The university has over 52,000 distance learning external students and 161,270 campus-based internal students , making it the largest university by number of students in the United Kingdom . The university was established by royal charter in 1836 , as a degree-awarding examination board for students holding certificates from University College London and King 's College London and other such other Institutions , corporate or unincorporated , as shall be established for the purpose of Education , whether within the Metropolis or elsewhere within our United Kingdom , allowing it to be one of three institutions to claim the title of the third-oldest university in England , [ b ] and moved to a federal structure in 1900 . It is now incorporated by its fourth ( 1863 ) royal charter and governed by the University of London Act 2018 . It was the first university in the United Kingdom to introduce examinations for women in 1869 and , a decade later , the first to admit women to degrees . In 1948 it became the first British university to appoint a woman as its vice chancellor ( chief executive ) . [ c ] The university 's member institutions house the oldest teaching hospitals in England . For most practical purposes , ranging from admissions to funding , the member institutions operate on an independent basis , with many awarding their own degrees whilst remaining in the federal university . The largest colleges by enrolment as of 2016/17 are UCL , King 's College London , City , Queen Mary , Birkbeck , the London School of Economics , Royal Holloway , and Goldsmiths , each of which has over 9,000 students . Smaller , more specialist , colleges are the School of Oriental and African Studies ( SOAS ) , St George 's ( medicine ) , the Royal Veterinary College , London Business School , the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine , the Royal Central School of Speech and Drama , the Royal Academy of Music , the Courtauld Institute of Art , and the Institute of Cancer Research . Imperial College London was formerly a member from 1907 before it became an independent university in 2007 , and Heythrop College was a member from 1970 until its closure in 2018 .
Sir David William Evans ( 4 November 1866 - 17 March 1926 ) was a Welsh lawyer and public servant , who played a leading role in the fight against tuberculosis in Wales . In his early adult life , Evans was a very keen sportsman and played rugby union for Oxford University and Cardiff . He played five international matches for Wales national rugby union team between 1889 and 1891 .
A blue is an award of sporting colours earned by athletes at some universities and schools for competition at the highest level . The awarding of blues began at Oxford and Cambridge universities in England . They are now awarded at a number of other British universities and at some universities in Australia , Canada , and New Zealand .
The Wales national rugby union team ( Welsh : Tîm rygbi ' r undeb cenedlaethol Cymru ) represents Wales in international rugby union . Its governing body , the Welsh Rugby Union ( WRU ) , was established in 1881 , the same year that Wales played their first international against England . The team plays its home matches at the Millennium Stadium in Cardiff ( currently known for sponsorship reasons as the Principality Stadium ) , which replaced Cardiff Arms Park as the national stadium of Wales in 1999 . Wales has competed annually in the Six Nations Championship ( previously the Home Nations Championship and Five Nations Championship ) since it was established in 1883 . They have won the tournament ( and its predecessors ) outright 27 times , most recently in 2019 , which was also a Grand Slam . Wales has also participated in every Rugby World Cup since the competition was established in 1987 ; they finished third in the inaugural tournament , a record they have not since matched . Wales was the host nation for the 1999 Rugby World Cup , although matches were also played in England , Scotland , Ireland and France . The Wales team experienced their first 'golden age ' between 1900 and 1911 ; they first played New Zealand in 1905 , winning 3-0 in a famous match at Cardiff Arms Park , and between March 1907 and January 1910 , they won 11 consecutive matches , a record that stood for over a century . Welsh rugby struggled between the two World Wars , but experienced a second 'golden age ' between 1969 and 1980 , when they won eight Five Nations Championships . Since 2005 , Wales have won five Six Nations titles , including four Grand Slams , and finished fourth at both the 2011 Rugby World Cup and 2019 Rugby World Cup ; they also won 14 consecutive matches between March 2018 and March 2019 , and reached number 1 in the World Rugby Rankings for the first time in August 2019 . Eight former Welsh players have been inducted into the World Rugby Hall of Fame ; 10 were inducted into the International Rugby Hall of Fame prior to its 2014 merger into the World Rugby Hall .
Sidney Pascoe Hayward MC QC ( 8 September 1896 - 11 February 1961 ) was a British barrister and legal writer .
Honour Moderations ( or Mods ) are a set of examinations at the University of Oxford at the end of the first part of some degree courses ( e.g. , Greats or Literae Humaniores ) . Honour Moderations candidates have a class awarded ( hence the 'honours ' ) . However , this does not count towards the final degree . In other courses , Prelims ( i.e. , preliminary examinations ) are the first set of examinations but have no class awarded for them . These first examinations are termed 'First Public Examinations ' . Having passed the First Public Examinations , students take a course leading to the 'Second Public Examinations ' , more commonly known as Finals . Finals are held at the end of all first degree courses at Oxford for arts subjects and may be split into examinations after the second , third and , if applicable , fourth year for some science subjects . Honour Moderations in Classics has been called one of the hardest examinations in the world . However , in recent years , the subject matter has been changed so that proficiency in both Latin and Greek languages is no longer required and the number of papers in the exam has been reduced , along with an extension in the time allowed to finish .
Alfred Ernest William Hazel CBE KC MP ( 20 February 1869 - 20 August 1944 ) was a British Liberal Party Member of Parliament ( MP ) and legal academic at the University of Oxford .
Literae humaniores , nicknamed greats , is an undergraduate course focused on classics ( Ancient Rome , Ancient Greece , Latin , ancient Greek , and philosophy ) at the University of Oxford and some other universities . The Latin name means literally more human literature and was in contrast to the other main field of study when the university began , i.e . res divinae , also known as theology . Lit . hum . is concerned with human learning , and lit . div . with learning that came from God . In its early days , it encompassed mathematics and natural sciences as well . It is an archetypal humanities course .
All Souls College ( official name : College of the Souls of All the Faithful Departed ) is a constituent college of the University of Oxford in England . Unique to All Souls , all of its members automatically become fellows ( i.e . full members of the college 's governing body ) . It has no undergraduate members , but each year recent graduate and postgraduate students at Oxford are eligible to apply for examination fellowships through a competitive examination ( once described as the hardest exam in the world ) and , for the several shortlisted after the examinations , an interview . All Souls is one of the wealthiest colleges in Oxford , with a financial endowment of £420.2 million ( 2018 ) . However , since the college 's principal source of revenue is its endowment , as of 2007 it only ranked 19th among Oxford colleges in total income . All Souls is a registered charity under English law . The college is located on the north side of the High Street adjoining Radcliffe Square to the west . To the east is The Queen 's College with Hertford College to the north . The current warden ( head of the college ) is Sir John Vickers , a graduate of Oriel College , Oxford .
A member of parliament ( MP ) is the representative of the voters to a parliament . In many countries with bicameral parliaments , this category includes specifically members of the lower house , as upper houses often have a different title . Member of Congress is an equivalent term in other jurisdictions . Members of parliament tend to form parliamentary groups ( also called parliamentary parties ) with members of the same political party .

The Lord Mayor of London is the City 's mayor and the leader of the City of London Corporation . Within the City of London , the Lord Mayor is accorded precedence over all individuals except the sovereign and retains various traditional powers , rights and privileges , including the title and style The Right Honourable Lord Mayor of London . One of the world 's oldest continuously elected civic offices , it is entirely separate from the directly-elected Mayor of London , a political office controlling a budget which covers the much larger area of Greater London . The Corporation of London changed its name to the City of London Corporation in 2006 , and accordingly the title Lord Mayor of the City of London was introduced , so as to avoid confusion with the Mayor of London . However , the legal and commonly used title remains Lord Mayor of London . The Lord Mayor is elected at Common Hall each year on Michaelmas , and takes office on the Friday before the second Saturday in November , at The Silent Ceremony . The Lord Mayor 's Show is held on the day after taking office ; the Lord Mayor , preceded by a procession , travels to the Royal Courts of Justice at the Strand to swear allegiance to the sovereign before the Justices of the High Court . The Lord Mayor 's main role nowadays is to represent , support and promote the businesses and residents in the City of London . Today these businesses are mostly in the financial sector , and the Lord Mayor is regarded as the champion of the entire UK-based financial sector regardless of ownership or location throughout the country . As leader of the Corporation of the City of London , the Lord Mayor serves as the key spokesman for the local authority and also has important ceremonial and social responsibilities . The Lord Mayor is non-affiliated politically , typically delivering many hundreds of speeches and addresses per year and attending many receptions and other events in London and beyond . Most incumbents make overseas visits while Lord Mayor of London under the auspices of the FCO .

As the primary research library and archive in Wales and one of the largest research libraries in the United Kingdom , the National Library is a member of Research Libraries UK ( RLUK ) and the Consortium of European Research Libraries ( CERL ) . At the very core of the National Library of Wales is the mission to collect and preserve materials related to Wales and Welsh life and those which can be utilised by the people of Wales for study and research . Welsh is the Library 's main medium of communication but it does , however , aim to deliver all public services in Welsh and English . In January 2015 the Library , in partnership with Wikimedia UK , appointed a full-time Wikipedian in Residence with the aim of developing further its resources on an open licence , to a worldwide audience .

Wadham College ( /ˈwɒdəm/ ) is one of the constituent colleges of the University of Oxford in the United Kingdom . It is located in the centre of Oxford , at the intersection of Broad Street and Parks Road . Wadham College was founded in 1610 by Dorothy Wadham , according to the will of her late husband Nicholas Wadham ( 1531-1609 ) , a member of an ancient Devon and Somerset family . The central buildings , a notable example of Jacobean architecture , were designed by the architect William Arnold and erected between 1610 and 1613 . They include a large and ornate Hall . Adjacent to the central buildings are the Wadham Gardens . Amongst Wadham 's most famous alumni is Sir Christopher Wren . Wren was one of a brilliant group of experimental scientists at Oxford in the 1650s , the Oxford Philosophical Club , which included Robert Boyle and Robert Hooke . This group held regular meetings at Wadham College under the guidance of the warden , John Wilkins , and the group formed the nucleus which went on to found the Royal Society . Wadham is a liberal and progressive college which aims to maintain the diversity of its student body and a friendly atmosphere . Founded as a men 's college , in 1974 it was among the first become coeducational , and the college has a strong reputation as a promoter of gay rights . In 2011 it became the first Oxford college to fly the rainbow flag as part of queer week , a celebration of sexual diversity and individuality .
A Serjeant-at-Law ( SL ) , commonly known simply as a Serjeant , was a member of an order of barristers at the English and Irish bar . The position of Serjeant-at-Law ( servientes ad legem ) , or Sergeant-Counter , was centuries old ; there are writs dating to 1300 which identify them as descended from figures in France before the Norman Conquest . The Serjeants were the oldest formally created order in England , having been brought into existence as a body by Henry II . The order rose during the 16th century as a small , elite group of lawyers who took much of the work in the central common law courts . With the creation of Queen 's Counsel ( or Queen 's Counsel Extraordinary ) during the reign of Elizabeth I , the order gradually began to decline , with each monarch opting to create more King 's or Queen 's Counsel . The Serjeants ' exclusive jurisdictions were ended during the 19th century and , with the Judicature Act 1873 coming into force in 1875 , it was felt that there was no need to have such figures , and no more were created . The last appointed was Nathaniel Lindley , later a Law Lord , who retired in 1905 and died in 1921 . The number of Irish Serjeants-at-law was limited to three ( originally one , later two ) . The last appointment was A. M. Sullivan in 1912 ; after his 1921 relocation to the English bar he remained Serjeant Sullivan as a courtesy title . The Serjeants had for many centuries exclusive jurisdiction over the Court of Common Pleas , being the only lawyers allowed to argue a case there . At the same time they had rights of audience in the other central common law courts ( the Court of King 's Bench and Exchequer of Pleas ) and precedence over all other lawyers . Only Serjeants-at-Law could become judges of these courts right up into the 19th century , and socially the Serjeants ranked above Knights Bachelor and Companions of the Bath .
