Book excerpt: "The United States Code is the official codification of the general and permanent laws of the United States of America. The Code was first published in 1926, and a new edition of the code has been published every six years since 1934. The 2012 edition of the Code incorporates laws enacted through the One Hundred Twelfth Congress, Second Session, the last of which was signed by the President on January 15, 2013. It does not include laws of the One Hundred Thirteenth Congress, First Session, enacted between January 2, 2013, the date it convened, and January 15, 2013. By statutory authority this edition may be cited "U.S.C. 2012 ed." As adopted in 1926, the Code established prima facie the general and permanent laws of the United States. The underlying statutes reprinted in the Code remained in effect and controlled over the Code in case of any discrepancy. In 1947, Congress began enacting individual titles of the Code into positive law. When a title is enacted into positive law, the underlying statutes are repealed and the title then becomes legal evidence of the law. Currently, 26 of the 51 titles in the Code have been so enacted. These are identified in the table of titles near the beginning of each volume. The Law Revision Counsel of the House of Representatives continues to prepare legislation pursuant to 2 U.S.C. 285b to enact the remainder of the Code, on a title-by-title basis, into positive law. The 2012 edition of the Code was prepared and published under the supervision of Ralph V. Seep, Law Revision Counsel. Grateful acknowledgment is made of the contributions by all who helped in this work, particularly the staffs of the Office of the Law Revision Counsel and the Government Printing Office"--Preface.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seminar paper in the subject Sociology - Communication, language: English, abstract: The primary objective of this research is to investigate the impact of Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) on landlord-tenant disputes in the Yenagoa Local Government Area of Bayelsa State. The study aims to assess the prevalence and intensity of such disputes and their effects on the socio-economic development of the area. Additionally, it seeks to evaluate the strategies used to resolve these disputes, the awareness of citizens regarding the existence of ADR, and the effectiveness of ADR as an alternative to the conventional police and court methods for resolving landlord-tenant conflicts. Conflict, disputes, and misunderstandings have been an inherent part of human interaction throughout history. They frequently stem from the divergence of goals, values, and interests among individuals and groups. Resolving these disputes is essential for maintaining social harmony and preventing conflicts from escalating into violence or war. Misunderstandings, disagreements, disputes, and conflicts can emerge between neighbors, landlords and tenants, communities, and even nations. The consequences of such disputes can be severe, leading to property damage, injuries, loss of life, and extensive destruction. One common response to these disputes has been to initiate criminal cases, often resulting in lengthy and protracted legal processes. However, these legal avenues may not always provide satisfactory resolutions or promote healing among the parties involved. It is in response to these challenges that Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) emerges as an innovative and non-confrontational approach to resolving disputes. ADR offers a more peaceful and harmonious means of addressing conflicts, diverting from the traditional approach of resorting to criminal proceedings as soon as one's rights are perceived to be violated. The study will explore the following hypotheses: 1. There is a significa
