INSTRUCTIONS FOR A TAKE-HOME EXAM WITH ASSESSMENT INFO TOOL ON MYUNISA




PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY BEFORE ANSWERING THE EXAMINATION

QUESTIONS.


1. The examination question paper counts 100 marks.



2. ANSWER ALL the questions. You may type your answers, but you will save a lot of time by writing your

answers down and scanning it the appropriate place.



3. The duration of the examination is 4 hours. Your portfolio opens on 3 February 2021 at 10h15 and must

be submitted via myUnisa on 3 February 2021 on or before 14h15 (Central African Time).



4. This is an open-book examination. You may consult your prescribed study material during the

examination. You may not consult anyone else and must submit your own work. Remember that an

open-book examination is a test at a higher level than the usual type of examination, where memory is

tested as much as insight. You are expected to prove that you can use and apply information, rather

than merely repeat it. In brief, what is being tested is factual knowledge, understanding and the correct

application thereof. You are expected to identify precisely what information applies and then explain

why you think so. Also, because you have the guide available when answering questions, we do not

give marks for direct quotations from the guide. You are, therefore, assessed on your level of

understanding of the legal principles, by looking at how well you applied the principles to the questions.

PLEASE

Question 1


X and Y are accused of removing Y’s son from the custody of his (Y’s) estranged wife (W), and

kidnapping him to an unknown destination. W is an eyewitness to the kidnapping. Fully discuss the

competence and compellability of X, Y and W as witnesses for the state, and against each other. (6)




Question 2


Mrs Philanderer has grown tired of her husband’s suspected marital infidelities. She engages

the services of a private detective, who takes long-range photographs of Mr Philanderer engaged in

, improper extra-marital activities. Advise her, as her legal counsel, on the following questions, citing legal

authority where applicable.



2.1 In any ensuing action for divorce, would these photographs be admissible as evidence? As what

should this type of evidence be classified? Would it make any difference if the private detective

had been making use of a digital camera? (12)



2.2 What should your course of action be if the private detective is called as one of her (Mrs

Philanderer’s) witnesses, but then gives evidence very much favourable to Mr

Philanderer (probably having been bribed)? (5)




Question 3


A shoots and kills his wife’s lover in front of her and is subsequently charged with murder. Two

witnesses can testify on behalf of the state: A’s wife can testify about what she saw and a

ballistics expert can testify that the bullet that was found in the body of the deceased, was fired by a gun

found in A’s possession. Fully discuss how the court must approach the evidence of these

witnesses. Can the state force A’s wife to testify on their behalf? (15)




Question 4


Fully comment on the following statement: <During a trial, the court must first consider the

competency of a witness, then the admissibility of evidence and finally the weight or persuasive value

of evidence. The <weight= of evidence, therefore, plays no part when the court considers

the admissibility of that evidence.= (5) Question 5


During the presentation of the state’s case on a charge of escaping from prison, the prosecution

wants to present evidence about the accused’s latest previous conviction. During the same case,

the prosecution also wants to present evidence about a previous conviction for escaping from prison,
