This first issue of the Student Law Review (SLR) is the initial stepping stone into the
complex and fortifying world of literature in which our UWI St. Augustine Law Society aims to
make our presence and unifying vioce felt.
It takes great courage to create something worth reading, but it takes even greater courage
to allow others to read that which you have written. As such, we would like to express our
utmost thanks to all authors of each article in this compilation for allowing the use of their work
in this Publication: Renelle Ramlal, Kevina Ramsook, Gillianna Guy, Sasha Mangar, Denzil
Rajack-Prayag, Grace Lucy-Anna Bhagwandeen and Antonio Emmanuel.
In the words of Alfred North Whitehead, "[n]o one who achieves success does so without
acknowledging the help of others. The wise and confident acknowledge this help with gratitude."
Thus special thanks go to the Editorial Committee of the SLR, President, Asif A. Hosein-Shah,
Vice President, Miguel Angelo Raphael Elijah Vasquez and Publications Relations Officer,
Richard Jaggasar for all of their assistance in this venture.
A good teacher can inspire hope, ignite the imagination, and instill a love of learning. In
the Faculty of Law we are blessed with a staff of phenomenal teachers who propel our successes
and who are always willing to assist us.
Mention must be made of Mr. Timothy Affonso, Law Lecturer at UWI St. Augustine
Campus, who was always gracious and welcoming throughout the process of putting the Student
Law Review together.
We are indebted to Mr. John Jeremie S.C., Law Leaturer at UWI St. Augustine Campus,
for penning the Foreword to this, the SLR, and for his unwavering support.
On behalf of the entire Law Society Executive, we find it essential to thank all members
of our Law Society for supporting us in all our activities and ventures. This is for you.
