Abstract

The article discusses several Australian legal cases as of July 2012, including All Covers & Accessories Pty. Ltd. v. Sidowi which deals with a bailment, Barrett v. Bem which deals with the validity of a signature on a will, and Ashton v. Pratt which deals with the enforcement of a promise made within the context of an immoral arrangement. In the Barrett case, a testator in a hospital bed was reportedly too weak to sign his own will, so his sister signed it at his request.
