You face an overtly confident subject of a fraud investigation
across the interview table and you think to yourself: Why is he so
confident? Is it that obvious that I don't know how to prove his
guilt? There is no space left on your CV for another academic
qualification and you've been doing this for a while now - why then
do you feel so ill-prepared? You start to wish that you had the
effortless guidance of your retired colleague. If he was here now,
what gems of experience and tricks of the trade would he give you?
Practical Insights for Fraud Professionals aims to do exactly that.
It reads like on-the-job training and provides sound practical
guidelines on how to conduct all elements associated with fraud
investigation. Both new and seasoned fraud investigators will find
value in these applied techniques.
This book uses worked examples and practical tips to help to build
those skills by examining in detail each stage of a moot. It
addresses techniques for understanding a mooting problem question,
how to structure and enhance written and oral submissions and what
to expect in a moot court scenario. It also discusses the
organisation of mooting modules and competitions. In this way, the
chapters of A Guide to Mooting in Ireland can be read sequentially
or referred to individually where specific guidance is needed.
Outside the United States, Norway's 1814 constitution is the oldest
still in force. Constitutional judicial review has been a part of
Norwegian court decision-making for most of these 200 years. Since
the 1990s, Norway has also exercised review under the European
Convention of Human Rights (ECHR). Judicial review of legislation
can be controversial: having unelected judges overruling popularly
elected majorities seems undemocratic. Yet Norway remains one of
the most democratic countries in the world. How does Norway manage
the balance between democracy and judicial oversight? Author Anine
Kierulf tells the story of Norwegian constitutionalism from 1814
until today through the lens of judicial review debates and cases.
This study adds important insights into the social and political
justifications for an active judicial review component in a
constitutional democracy. Anine Kierulf argues that the Norwegian
model of judicial review provides a useful perspective on the
dichotomy of American and European constitutionalism.

confidently and efficiently. The text is well suited for
undergraduate courses in technical writing, communications,
