England and Wales

In the law, England and Wales is a single state and "English law" is the recognised term of art used more or less consistently throughout the entire academic literature on law. As I recall, Hallsbury may desribe the listing on the title page as the "Law of England and Wales" but no-one that I have ever met before has ever used the phrase "English and Welsh law". This is not, nor has it ever been, a recognised term of art. And, with the greatest respect, the fact that one of the cases happens to have a Welsh town as one of the parties is hardly a relevant criterion for mentioning Welsh law. The legal system is administered from Westminster and the law applied is English. My apologies, I wish that what you are proposing would make legal sense so that Wales could be mentioned, but since what we are trying to do in Wiki is to provide a good verifiable academic standard, I cannot agree to any requests to amend the term of art.

thanks for taking the time to explain this to me, so what about the following.

In English civil law (being the law of England and Wales), relevant case law in negligence and misfeasance...........

This i belive will clear up understanding in terms of duristiction (sp) without afecting the 'term of art' i hope that this would be an acceptible alteration to the article.--Happyhaydn 03:13, 3 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I have absolutely no problem with your proposed amendment. Thank you for being so understanding. =) David91 07:56, 3 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Malice

Does this basically mean, if someone says they are going to hit me and threating me with violence. Does that mean they are Malicing me? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 217.206.25.201 (talk) 16:05, 16 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Malice is a worddefining mean and hateful. For exmple when you are at a play and someone starts to clap when not suppose to that is malice. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 207.70.191.118 (talk) 16:22, 24 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
