R v Woollin (1998)

This mind map was made using Edrawmind. This mind map delves into the landmark case of R v Woollin (1998), significant for its implications in the realm of criminal law, specifically regarding the concept of intent. The case centers on a tragic incident where a baby was fatally injured, leading to Woollin being charged with murder. The legal principle section highlights the House of Lords' clarification of the law surrounding intent, establishing what is known as the "Woollin test" for determining intent. This test distinguishes between 'direct intention' and 'oblique intention' in criminal acts, providing a two-step approach used to assess the defendant's mental state. The mind map also outlines the key elements required for establishing mens rea (the defendant's mental state) and actus reus (the defendant's actions), alongside the case's significance and impact on British law.
