Editorial Note

This issue of the James Cook University Law Review is dedicated to the Faculty of Law’s Foundation Dean, Professor Kenneth C.T. Sutton, who has recently retired.

Our law school was indeed privileged to have a scholar of Professor Sutton’s eminence as its first Dean, and staff and students were conscious of the honour of him being their Dean.

Under Professor Sutton’s guidance the Law School grew from a mere department to a faculty, and the library’s law collection expanded enormously, its holdings extended to include on-line and CD-ROM facilities.Fostered by Professor Sutton’s encouragement, local mooting and interviewing competitions were instituted and our students participated in the national competitions.Through his support, publication of the student review, Precedent, developed significantly and publication of this journal began.

In dedicating this issue to Professor Sutton, the staff and students of the Faculty express both their appreciation for his contribution to the Faculty, and their hope that in days to come he will recall them with affection, as they will him.
