The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- Major areas of law – particularly administrative law, contract law, equity and trust law, property law and tort law – are largely judge-made, though certain aspects have now been modified to some extent by statutes.
- However, other areas of law, such as criminal law, company law and family law, are largely statutory in nature.
- Apart from referring to relevant Singaporean cases, judges continue to refer to English case law where the issues pertain to a traditional common-law area of law, or involve the interpretation of Singaporean statutes based on English enactments or English statutes applicable in Singapore.
Why it is Common
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Law of Singapore article was read about 15,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 78 and blocks with 90: each hit it takes is cut by 36 %.
