Overview

Parts of the Factum

  • PART I (The Applicant and the Respondent)
  • PART II (Nature of the Case & Issues)
  • PART III (Summary of the Facts Relevant to the Issues)
  • PART IV (Statement of each issue raised, with argument)
  • PART V – ORDER SOUGHT

Factums are written slightly differently depending on whether or not the factum is being written for an appeal or for a standard application.

It is important to know that factums rely on sworn evidence that is either already on the record or is based on a sworn affidavit of a party.
