A Guide to Scots Law

>From contemporary legislation passed in London or Brussels to Roman Law to
Udal (old Norse) Law, Scottish Law has many influences and inheritances.
This site, created by Evi C. Athanasekou of the University of Glasgow
Department of Computer Science, attempts to present "basic knowledge about
the Scottish legal system that ranges from what the sources of Scots Law
are to practical solutions to common everyday legal problems." At the site,
users can explore the history and sources of Scots Law and learn about the
current legal system structure in Scotland (which remains distinct from the
English one). The Scots Law Queries section provides answers to everyday
legal questions in Scotland. Additional features include a Scottish legal
yellow pages section, legal terms of Scots Law, Latin words, phrases and
maxims in Scots Law, and related links. [MD]
