The following are useful resources to start your research for Question 1, but you will need to extend your reading beyond these:

The following books are in the Course Reserve collection in the library under Patricia Finlayson’s name and the course name and number. These books are available for three hours and possible extension if not requested by another student.

* Hubbard, J., Thomas, C., & Varnham, S. (2010). Principles of Law for New Zealand Business Students. (4th ed.). Auckland: Pearson. (Past Text book) * Webb, D., Sanders, K., & Scott, P. (2010). The New Zealand Legal System. (5th ed.). Wellington: LexisNexis * Mulholland, R.D. (2001). Introduction to the New Zealand Legal System (10th ed.). Wellington: Butterworths.
