Download or read book Criminal Law Case Digests written by Atty. DEOGENES NAMBAYAN AGELLON and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2021-03-14 with total page 895 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A hornbook and textbook – it explains the basics, fundamentals and rudiments of Criminal Law and conjunctively delves further into the legal texts and treatises upon which established precedents on the subject are based, wherewith the book descants the more subtle and perplexing issues and legal principles as pronounced by the High Court in the cases discussed and cited in this work. This volume contains an aggregate of four hundred and forty (440) cases, showing the facts on how the crime was perpetuated, and in plain and easy language the meaning of the legal provisions being discussed, carefully selected and culled from more than a century of Supreme Court decisions. The presentation deviates from the conventional method of article by article sequence of discussion, and instead sunders them into various segments according to the issues posed and the legal doctrines applied and discussed, with review materials – in outline form – on several aoristic and obscure areas interjected between the segments. By the described method of instruction, further guided by the syllabi systematically interwoven with a quick search subject index, thereby modifying the format of the index section to find easy-to-find additional review materials, the readers – the legal researchers, the students of criminal law, the bar and board reviewees and the police officers alike – would find ease in learning and understanding Criminal Law.

Book excerpt: What is the definition of ′crime′?

Download or read book The Concept of the Civilian written by Claire Garbett and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-01-09 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Concept of the Civilian: Legal Recognition, Adjudication and the Trials of International Criminal Justice offers a critical account of the legal shaping of civilian identities by the processes of international criminal justice. It draws on a detailed case-study of the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia to explore two key issues central to these justice processes: first, how to understand civilians as a social and legal category of persons and second, how legal practices shape victims’ identities and redress in relation to these persons. Integrating socio-legal concepts and methodologies with insights from transitional justice scholarship, Claire Garbett traces the historical emergence of the concept of the civilian, and critically examines how the different stages of legal proceedings produce its conceptual form in distinction from that of combatants. This book shows that the very notions of civilian, protection and redress that underpin current practices of international criminal justice continue to evoke both definitional difficulties and analytic contestation. Using a unique interdisciplinary approach, the author provides a critical analysis of the relationship between mechanisms of transitional justice and civilians that will be of interest to scholars and students in the fields of transitional justice, sociology, law, politics and human rights.

Download or read book Criminal Sentencing as Practical Wisdom written by Graeme Brown and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2017-06-01 with total page 297 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How do judges sentence? In particular, how important is judicial discretion in sentencing? Sentencing guidelines are often said to promote consistency, but is consistency in sentencing achievable or even desirable? Whilst the passing of a sentence is arguably the most public stage of the criminal justice process, there have been few attempts to examine judicial perceptions of, and attitudes towards, the sentencing process. Through interviews with Scottish judges and by presenting a comprehensive review and analysis of recent scholarship on sentencing – including a comparative study of UK, Irish and Commonwealth sentencing jurisprudence – this book explores these issues to present a systematic theory of sentencing. Through an integration of the concept of equity as particularised justice, the Aristotelian concept of phronesis (or 'practical wisdom'), the concept of value pluralism, and the focus of appellate courts throughout the Commonwealth on sentencing by way of 'instinctive synthesis', it is argued that judicial sentencing methodology is best viewed in terms of a phronetic synthesis of the relevant facts and circumstances of the particular case. The author concludes that sentencing is best conceptualised as a form of case-orientated, concrete and intuitive decision making; one that seeks individualisation through judicial recognition of the profoundly contextualised nature of the process.
Download or read book Answering for Crime written by R A Duff and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2007-11-16 with total page 342 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this long-awaited book, Antony Duff offers a new perspective on the structures of criminal law and criminal liability. His starting point is a distinction between responsibility (understood as answerability) and liability, and a conception of responsibility as relational and practice-based. This focus on responsibility, as a matter of being answerable to those who have the standing to call one to account, throws new light on a range of questions in criminal law theory: on the question of criminalisation, which can now be cast as the question of what we should have to answer for, and to whom, under the threat of criminal conviction and punishment; on questions about the criminal trial, as a process through which defendants are called to answer, and about the conditions (bars to trial) given which a trial would be illegitimate; on questions about the structure of offences, the distinction between offences and defences, and the phenomena of strict liability and strict responsibility; and on questions about the structures of criminal defences. The net result is not a theory of criminal law; but it is an account of the structure of criminal law as an institution through which a liberal polity defines a realm of public wrongdoing, and calls those who perpetrate (or are accused of perpetrating) such wrongs to account.
