FILAC – In-depth Analysis of the Judgment
Being the oldest and largest online legal research database, Manupatra always try to find out the new and effective ways to help the Lawyers, Law firms, Judiciary, Government, researchers, students and corporate in their research. In order to achieve this motive and in our efforts to make the research easier, we’ve come up with another helpful feature based on the concept of FILAC. FILAC is a complete and to the point analysis of the judgments wherein we divided the judgment in five major categories i.e. Facts, Issues, Law, Analysis and Conclusion. To make it more useful, we have also included Contentions of the parties alongwith important precedents referred and anlysed in the judgments.
