Language:
The language that is used in the statute is outdate, for example it uses worlds such as "Maliciously" and "Grevious", this may be because the statue is over 150 years old. This is a problem becuause it is hard for non-lawyers to undertsand or even for layers to understand, for instance "maliciously" would ordinary be interpretated as being wicked but the courts have interpretated it as "Intenion/reckless", this is a problem because the lawyers would find it hard to construct a case for their clients.
