| Unconscionability and Personal Liability in Equity
Tjio, Hans • [1991] Sing JLS 76 (Jul)The article deals with the area of constructive trusts which does not involve equitable interests commonly associated with the institution of trustee-beneficiary. It is suggested that the term constructive trusteeship, which is sometimes used to describe this area of the law, is a misnomer, and that the concern is with no more than a personal liability in equity. The view taken, in the light of recent cases, is that such liability only arises where there has been some form of unconscionability on the part of the wrongdoer. Liability is not strict nor does constructive notice suffice.

| Waiver of Legal Professional Privilege
Tan, Yock Lin • [1991] Sing JLS 158 (Jul)This note argues that there is merit in having some notion of implies waiver of legal profession priviledge in terms of promoting fairness of trial and the interest of the administration of justice. Since the Evidence Act rules out the possibility of implied waiver, the desirable objectives of fairness of trial and finality of litigation may have to be achieved by recognising that an advocate has astensible authority to waive the priviledge (although express consent to waiver may be lacking)
