While legal dilemmas can become tedious, time-consuming, overwhelming, and extremely complex, IRAC methodology can make the process somewhat easier. Hence, IRAC process
There are many laws in the community that are described in The Giver that are unfair or cruel. One law however, stands out to me. That law is that no one can see the list of children’s names before the ceremony that gives parents their children. This rule is not only unfair, but also pointless.

I first began to be interested in law when the parish priest of our local church in Malaysia was detained and charged in court for taking part in a candlelight vigil calling for the abolition of the much dreaded Internal Security Act that allowed detention without trial. He was later acquitted and despite further attempts by the prosecutors to appeal against his acquittal, the appeal was not allowed by the High Court.
