Presenting: My Easy LLB - Namibian Law Blog!

-

 Hello!

Welcome to the very first My Easy LLB Namibian Law Blog post.

This Namibian law blog is intended as a supplement to our new website, myeasyllb.com, with which we will be launching our new mission, as of Monday, the 1st of March 2021.

What is our new mission? 🤔

Well, it is no secret how COVID-19 has ravaged, and continues to ravage, our world and shake things up in a way that no one can honestly say they could have seen coming - although there are always people who say they did 🙄😂

Most things have shifted online, if not entirely, at least in parallel. Most importantly here, our education depends largely on our ability to access study materials online. It is not always easy to find materials tailored to our legal system and our curriculum. Due to this, coupled with a novel limited access to lecturers, we find ourselves, as students, with a unique mutation of monster to battle in working through our courses.

This why we, Easy LLB, have undertaken a new mission, entitled:

My Easy LLB 

With My Easy LLB, we hope to do our part in providing a platform that provides Namibian law students with the materials and support they need, as far as possible, in tackling legal studies without suffocating, feeling alone, overwhelmed and helpless. Here's what to expect:

Firstly, please note that we have a new logo; we hope that you will get used to it soon and start to recognise us easily:

Secondly, as a general rule, all our study materials will now be hosted at our website, myeasyllb.com, and will be made available for public use 🥳 Please note, however, that our website is still under construction, with materials being uploaded ongoingly. Keep an eye on our Facebook page for notifications about uploads.

Thirdly, we do still provide custom case summarisation and research services. To find out more about these subsidiary services, you will need to contact us via our website.

Fifthly, it is important to note that while some of the materials we will be uploading are authentic My Easy LLB products, some them are opensource materials that are valuable supplements, equally crucial in your journey to graduation. 

Finally, we want you to know that the growth of our study materials database is heavily dependent on requests from you; so, if there is a case or topic that you would like to see, please do send through a request! Request a case by clicking here and any other request/comment/etc by clicking here.

We are so excited about this new venture and we hope you are too! 🤩 This blog will be regularly updated with titbits and informative articles. Keep an eye on our Facebook page for notifications about these and updates about the website.

See you very soon,

My Easy LLB

  Welcome to the  My Easy LLB Namibian Law Blog! This case featured a dispute surrounding the enforceability of a company's articles of association and the nature of a share. This is a historical company law case and in order to capture the principles it laid down, the following case summary will deviate from the standard format. Use this to help you study but never use our case summaries as your sole source of reading 😉✌ ( Tip: Use the sidebar to browse other case summaries on this subject ) Facts Steel Bros' articles of association stated that if a member thereof went bankrupt, their shares would be transferred to other shareholders at a fair price below par value; Borland (a shareholder of Steel Bros) went bankrupt and his trustee was informed of the transfer of his shares; Borland's trustee argued that Steel Bros' articles of association were void because they compromised ownership and property, which tend to perpetuity (i.e. to...
