Download or read book Civil Justice Privatization and Democracy written by Trevor C.W. Farrow and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 2014-04-30 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Privatization is occurring throughout the public justice system, including courts, tribunals, and state-sanctioned private dispute resolution regimes. Driven by a widespread ethos of efficiency-based civil justice reform, privatization claims to decrease costs, increase speed, and improve access to the tools of justice. But it may also lead to procedural unfairness, power imbalances, and the breakdown of our systems of democratic governance. Civil Justice, Privatization, and Democracy demonstrates the urgent need to publicize, politicize, debate, and ultimately temper these moves towards privatized justice. Written by Trevor C.W. Farrow, a former litigation lawyer and current Chair of the Canadian Forum on Civil Justice, Civil Justice, Privatization, and Democracy does more than just bear witness to the privatization initiatives that define how we think about and resolve almost all non-criminal disputes. It articulates the costs and benefits of these privatizing initiatives, particularly their potential negative impacts on the way we regulate ourselves in modern democracies, and it makes recommendations for future civil justice practice and reform.

Download or read book Position und Aufgaben des Richters nach westlichem und nach islamischem Recht written by Heinrich Scholler and published by Mohr Siebeck. This book was released on 2007 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: English summary: This volume contains the expanded articles written by a group of specialists in comparative legal history, oriental law and ethnological legal research who dealt with various aspects of the position and the function of the judge in Western and Islamic law during the 30th conference for comparative law in Wurzburg in 2005. In both legal systems, the main issue is basically the just judge. Attempts to guarantee that justice is done by a judge can be made in various ways and can complement each other, such as for example through a selection according to general knowledge and honesty, preordained professional careers or rules of procedure for the trial. German description: Dieser Band enthalt die erweiterten Beitrage der Fachgruppe fur vergleichende Rechtsgeschichte, orientalische Rechte und ethnologische Rechtsforschung, die sich auf der 30. Tagung fur Rechtsvergleichung in Wurzburg 2005 mit verschiedenen Aspekten von Position und Aufgaben des Richters nach westlichem und nach islamischem Recht beschaftigte. Dahinter steht in beiden Rechtssystemen letztlich die Frage nach dem gerechten Richter. Versuche, die Gerechtigkeit des Richters zu gewahrleisten, konnen in verschiedenster Weise erfolgen und sich erganzen, so z.B. durch Auswahl nach Sachkunde und Redlichkeit, vorgezeichnete Berufslaufbahnen oder Verfahrenvorschriften fur den Prozess. Im vorliegenden Band mit Beitragen von Wissenschaftlern aus Deutschland, der Turkei, Iran und dem Libanon werden sowohl historische wie aktuelle Aspekte dieses Themas behandelt.

Albert Kiralfy entered King’s College London as a student in the Faculty of Laws in 1932, graduated in 1935 and took his first higher degree in the following year.

Download or read book Media Freedom and Contempt of Court written by Eric Barendt and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-05 with total page 855 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The essays discuss the restrictions imposed by contempt of court and other laws on media freedom to attend and report legal proceedings. Part I contains leading articles on the open justice principle. They examine the extent to which departures from that principle should be allowed to protect the rights of parties, in particular the accused in criminal proceedings, to a fair trial, and their interest in being rehabilitated in society after proceedings have been concluded. The essays in Part II examine the topical issue of whether open justice entails a right to film and broadcast legal proceedings. The articles in Part III are concerned with the application of contempt of court to prejudicial media publicity; they discuss whether it is possible to prevent prejudice without sacrificing media freedom. Another aspect of media freedom and contempt of court is canvassed in Part IV: whether journalists should enjoy a privilege not to reveal their sources of information.
Download or read book Noted but not Invariably Approved written by J R Spencer and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2014-12-01 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: John Spencer has worked at Cambridge University for over 40 years. He has lectured, supervised – and entertained – students in tort, contract, crime, medical law and criminal procedure and evidence. This book is a tribute to Professor Spencer, but it is different from the usual tribute in that it contains case notes written and selected by the author himself and all published in the Cambridge Law Journal (CLJ) between 1970 and 2013. With the exception of one note, which is somewhat longer, the articles are taken from the case note section of the CLJ which, until fairly recently, imposed a strict word limit of 1000 words and no more (the complexity of the cases and the prolixity of the judges led to the CLJ relaxing this rule to 1500 words). The case notes reproduced here provide a master-class in the writing of incisive, engaging notes. Written with students in mind but also intended for the consumption and edification of a wider audience, these case notes epitomise the way in which Professor Spencer has, for 43 years, cajoled, lambasted and encouraged the judiciary to see things his way.

Download or read book The Court of Appeal written by Gavin Drewry and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2007-04-10 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Civil justice has been undergoing a massive transformation. There have been big changes in the management of judicial business; the Human Rights Act 1988 has had a pervasive impact; the Constitutional Reform Act 2005 has effected many changes - notably, the prospective transfer of the appellate jurisdiction of the House of Lords to a new Supreme Court. Against this backcloth of radical change, this book looks at the recent history and the present-day operation of the civil division of the Court of Appeal - a court that, despite its pivotal position, has attracted surprisingly little scholarly attention. It examines the impact of the permission to appeal requirements, and the way in which applications - particularly those by litigants in person - are handled; it looks at the working methods of the Lords Justices and at the leadership of the Court by recent Masters of the Rolls; it considers the relationship between the Court and the House of Lords - looking at high-profile cases in which the Court has been reversed by the Lords. Notwithstanding the impending arrival of the Supreme Court, it concludes that 'the Court of Appeal will remain firmly in place, occupying its crucial position as, to all intents and purposes, the court of last resort-indeed, a supreme court-for most civil appellants.'
