What is the name of your latest book and what inspired it?
General Laws and Interpretation, Sultanate of Oman-Part 1
Having spent 3 years in Oman and serving as a legal consultant, I observed alot of confusion in understanding of the laws among the masses and the interpretation of it by my colleagues in the legal field and the implemenation of the laws by the coprporate structures.
Corporate structures in Oman,place illogical reliance solely on internal HR departments even for interpretation of laws which according to me is a folly. The HR personnel within these structures are compelled to decide on issues relating to interpretation of statutes sans proper qualification to achieve its purpose,thus snowballing a spark conflict within the organsiation into a raging disputes compelled to be refered toexternal adjudicatory mechanisms/courts.Thus the book lays down some principles to be incorporated in the system to obliterate the prevalent legal quandary.
