Law Students' Journal

INTRODUCTION
Every academic year, the Library and Editorial Committee of the Law Students’ Union  of the University of Ghana publishes a journal of legal articles written by law students on various legal issues. Unfortunately, the COVID-19 pandemic truncated the 2019/2020 academic year and prevented the publication of hard copies of the 2020 Edition of the University of Ghana Student Law Journal.

The articles in the 2020 edition of the journal contain well-researched analyses of pertinent legal issues expressed in a clear and easily comprehensible manner. The high quality of the journal is therefore a testament to the amount of hard work and time invested by students and the past Editorial Committee members in the production of the journal.

We would hate to see these efforts wasted as it is genuinely too late to publish hard copies of the journal.

Therefore, we chose to publish this e-version of the 2020 Journal on our School’s website.

We hope you enjoy your read.
