This book provides a summary of the 200 most cited cases in Australian law. Each case note contains an outline of the facts, issues and decision, an extract of the most frequently cited portions of the judgment, commentary incorporating later decisions on the topic, and cross-references to the leading texts on the legal area of the case. Under each case heading there is a single-sentence proposition for which the case stands as authority, and these are later collated in a table for easy reference.
