(from Lord Justice Scarman's judgment in Chase International Corporation v. Oliver (1978)) The plaintiff and the defendants are adjoining landowners. The plaintiff asserts that he has a right of way over the defendants’ land giving access from his land to the public highway. Without this access his land is in fact landlocked, but, for reasons which clearly appear from the narration of the facts already given by my Lords, the plaintiff cannot claim a right of way by necessity. The plaintiff has no grant. He has the benefit of no enforceable contract. He has no prescriptive right. His case has to be that the defendants are estopped by their conduct from denying him a right of access over their land to the public highway. If the plaintiff has any right, it is an equity arising out of the conduct and relationship of the parties. In such a case I think it is now well settled law that the court, having analysed and assessed the conduct and relationship of the parties, has to answer three questions. First, is there an equity established? Secondly, what is the extent of the equity, if one is established? And, thirdly, what is the relief appropriate to satisfy the equity? (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plain_language) 3. "They have, therefore, been most rigorous in putting in execution the only Remedy that can be found for this extravagance, and that has been a constant Resolution to reject all the amplifications, digressions, and swellings of style, to return back to the primitive purity, and shortness, when men delivered so many things almost in an equal number of words. They have exacted from all their members, a close, naked, natural way of speaking--positive expressions, clear senses, a native easiness--bringing all things as near the Mathematical plainness as they can." (Thomas Sprat) || 2. I know that I know nothing 3. A rich man is no richer than a beggar. || several examples. || 1. "I graduated from the University of Life. All right?

There are pearls in each of us, if only we knew how to cultivate them with ardor and persistence. (http://grammar.about.com/od/rhetoricstyle/f/qanalogy07.htm) 3. Maradona's infamous "hand of God" goal, which should have been disallowed, reflected old-fashioned central banking, Mr King said. It was full of mystique and "he was lucky to get away with it." But the second goal, where Maradona beat five players before scoring, even though he ran in a straight line, was an example of modern practice. "How can you beat five players by running in a straight line? The answer is that the English defenders reacted to what they expected Maradona to do. . . . Monetary policy works in a similar way. Market interest rates react to what the central bank is expected to do." (http://grammar.about.com/od/rhetoricstyle/f/qanalogy07.htm) || 2.

The tone of voice and its meaning must be in black and white on the page. (http://grammar.about.com/od/rs/g/toneterm.htm) || 2. The distinction between major and minor mood is not clear-cut, but intuitively minor moods (1) are highly restricted in their productivity, (2) are peripheral to communication, (3) are probably low in their relative frequency of occurrence, and (4) vary widely across languages. (http://grammar.about.com/od/mo/g/moodterm.htm) 3.The dominant mood of the story is that of expectation. This mood is developed through the dreams of the major characters. The other mood that prevails is premonitory, of impending doom. There are also other moods evoked through the actions of the characters reflecting sorrow, pity, and brutality.
