Download or read book Supreme Courts Under Pressure written by Pablo Bravo-Hurtado and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-03-13 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book discusses civil litigation at the supreme courts of nine jurisdictions – Argentina, Austria, Croatia, England and Wales, France, Germany, Italy, Spain and the United States – and focuses on the available instruments used to keep the caseload of these courts within acceptable limits. Such instruments are necessary in order to allow supreme courts to fulfil their main duties, that is, the administration of justice in individual cases (private function) and providing for the uniformity and development of the law within their respective jurisdictions (public function). If the number of cases at the supreme court level is too high, the result is undue delays, which are mainly problematic with regard to the private function. It may also put the quality of the court’s judgments under pressure, which can affect its public and private function alike. Thus, measures aimed at avoiding excessive caseloads need to take both functions into account. Increasing the capacity of the court to handle larger numbers of cases may result in the court being unable to adequately fulfil its public function, since large numbers of court decisions make it difficult to guarantee the uniformity of the law and its development. Therefore, a balanced approach is needed to safeguard capacity and quality. As shown by the contributions gathered here, the nature of reform in this area is not the same everywhere. There are a variety of reasons for this heterogeneity, ranging from different understandings of the caseload problem itself, local conceptions regarding the purpose of the Supreme Court, and strong entitlements concerning the right to appeal to budgetary restrictions and extremely rigid legislation. The book also shows that the implementation of similar solutions to case overload, such as access filters, may have different effects in different jurisdictions. The conclusion might well be that the problem of overburdened courts is multifactorial and context-dependent, and that easy, one-size-fits-all solutions are hard to find and perhaps even harder to implement.

Download or read book Supreme Courts in Transition in China and the West written by Cornelis Hendrik (Remco) van Rhee and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-02-20 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edited volume looks at supreme courts in China and the West. It examines the differences and similarities between the Supreme People’s Court of Mainland China and those that follow Western models. It also offers a comparative study of a selection of supreme courts in Europe and Latin America. The contributors argue that the Supreme Courts should give guidance to the development of the law and provide legal unity. For China, the Chinese author argues, that therefore there should be more emphasis on the procedure for reopening cases. The chapters on Western-style supreme courts argue that there should be adequate access filters; the procedure of reopening cases is considered to be problematic from the perspective of the finality of the administration of justice. In addition, the authors discuss measures that allow supreme courts in both regions to deal with their existing caseload, to reduce this caseload, and to avoid divergences in the case law of the supreme court. This volume offers ideas that will help supreme courts in both the East and the West to remove unmanageable caseloads. As a result, these courts will be better able to assist in the interpretation and clarification of the law, to provide for legal unity, and to give guidance to the development of the law.

Book excerpt: Este estudio se adentra en una materia que afecta y atañe a todos los operadores jurídicos que ejercen en los tribunales.

Concretamente en la presentación del escrito de demanda, y entonces, ante dichos defectos, en la subsanación de los mismos.

Download or read book NO SON CUENTOS written by Juan José Bocaranda E and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2013-11-19 with total page 468 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La obra podría llamarse, "expresiones, sentires, enfoques, puntos de vista", intrascendentes, quizás, pero necesariamente humanos. Siguiendo a Borges, podríamos decir que son "cuentos según la expectativa del lector". Si el lector no se acerca a ellos esperando leer cuentos, pues no lo son. Son, simplemente, rasgos de vida humana objetivada, reflejos de experiencias propias o ajenas, pues también de las experiencias de otros aprendemos y vivimos. Momentos de lo humano a los que (dijo Terencio), no podemos ser ajenos, meras salidas espontáneas de las flores, de las espinas, de los abrojos y de las piedras que llevamos por dentro... No pretendemos ser el "espejo que anda por el camino", sino mostrar el camino para que el espejo del lector lo perciba y lo interprete a su manera, conforme a su propia luz...
