Download or read book Critical Race Judgments written by Bennett Capers and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2022-04-21 with total page 725 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By re-writing US Supreme Court opinions that implicate critical dimensions of racial justice, Critical Race Judgments demonstrates that it's possible to be judge and a critical race theorist. Specific issues covered in these cases include the death penalty, employment, voting, policing, education, the environment, justice, housing, immigration, sexual orientation, segregation, and mass incarceration. While some rewritten cases – Plessy v. Ferguson (which constitutionalized Jim Crow) and Korematsu v. United States (which constitutionalized internment) – originally focused on race, many of the rewritten opinions – Lawrence v. Texas (which constitutionalized sodomy laws) and Roe v. Wade (which constitutionalized a woman's right to choose) – are used to incorporate racial justice principles in novel and important ways. This work is essential for everyone who needs to understand why critical race theory must be deployed in constitutional law to uphold and advance racial justice principles that are foundational to US democracy.

Download or read book The Federalist Papers written by Alexander Hamilton and published by Read Books Ltd. This book was released on 2018-08-20 with total page 420 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Classic Books Library presents this brand new edition of “The Federalist Papers”, a collection of separate essays and articles compiled in 1788 by Alexander Hamilton. Following the United States Declaration of Independence in 1776, the governing doctrines and policies of the States lacked cohesion. “The Federalist”, as it was previously known, was constructed by American statesman Alexander Hamilton, and was intended to catalyse the ratification of the United States Constitution. Hamilton recruited fellow statesmen James Madison Jr., and John Jay to write papers for the compendium, and the three are known as some of the Founding Fathers of the United States. Alexander Hamilton (c. 1755–1804) was an American lawyer, journalist and highly influential government official. He also served as a Senior Officer in the Army between 1799-1800 and founded the Federalist Party, the system that governed the nation’s finances. His contributions to the Constitution and leadership made a significant and lasting impact on the early development of the nation of the United States.

Book excerpt: This book is a collection of re-written existing judgments and hypothetical judgments, that offer a 'wild law' perspective. Drawing its inspiration from various feminist judgment projects, this book opens up judicial decision-making to critical scrutiny from a wild law or Earth-centred perspective. In this respect, its experiment with different forms and processes for wild judicial decision-making, unsettles the anthropocentric and property rights assumptions embedded in existing common law, by placing Earth and the greater community of life at the centre of its judgments.

Download or read book The People Vs the State written by Luke von Trapp and published by . This book was released on 2018-05-22 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Good people refuse to enforce bad laws, but how do you force change in the justice system? How do the people peacefully take power back from an overreaching government? How do you stop thousands of people from being victimized by law enforcement and corrupt courts? The answer...through jury nullification.Learn the secrets of the legal system that the courts hate for you to know, but are powerless to prevent you from exercising. You could be that one person that begins forcing a change in your city, county, or state that saves countless lives from the cesspool of the "justice" system.As one of the closely guarded secrets of the legal system, jury nullification places the power of the entire legal structure of the country back into the hands of the people and allows them to nullify bad laws through refusing to convict on laws you don't agree with. Under this system of checks and balances, juries act as the sole authority over both the legislative and judicial systems of the Federal and State governments."The jury is a check on us--it's a check on the judges. I think the Framers were not willing to trust, in criminal cases, the judges to find the facts. Indeed, you know at the beginning, when the Constitution was ratified, juries used to find not only the facts, but the law. " - Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia"I consider [trial by jury] as the only anchor, ever yet imagined by man, by which a government can be held to the principles of its constitution." - Thomas Jefferson"It is not only his right, but his duty... to find the verdict according to his own best understanding, judgment, and conscience, though in direct opposition to the direction of the court."- John AdamsIn this collection of essays you will learn:-What jury nullification is-Why jury nullification is important-Why free speech is not allowed in the courts-Who actually holds the power over the entire system (spoiler alert... it's you.)- and much, much moreJury nullification takes the power away from those who profit from our current criminal justice system and place it in the rightful hands of the people. Lawyers and judges thrive off people feeling powerless and who obey their edicts as though they were absolute; however, the only person who has absolute power in the courtroom is that one lone juror.. and that could be you."If the jury feels the law is unjust, we recognize the undisputed power of the jury to acquit, even if its verdict is contrary to the law as given by a judge, and contrary to the evidence... If the jury feels that the law under which the defendant is accused is unjust, or that exigent circumstances justified the actions of the accused, or for any reason which appeals to their logic or passion, the jury has the power to acquit, and the courts must abide by that decision." - United States v. Moylan, 4th Circuit Court of Appeals, 1969, 417 F.2d at 1006

Book excerpt: Samar (philosophy, Loyola U.) seeks to develop a metatheory of law that judges could use to decide very hard cases in which the law offers no firm precedents or it is not clear whether the applicable law is just. He discusses theories of political philosophy that set a foundation for the duty to obey law, presents a natural law justification for a legal system containing morally just laws, uses his metatheory to resolve five historically significant constitutional cases, and offers suggestions for legal education.
