Case Note: The Court Of Appeal's Lack Of Jurisdiction To Reopen Appeals: Abdullah Bin A Rahman V Public Prosecutor [[1994] 3 Slr [Singapore Law Reports] 129, Ca]; Lim Choon Chye V Public Prosecutor [[1994] 3 Slr 135, Ca], Jack Tsen-Ta Lee Dec 1993

Case Note: The Court Of Appeal's Lack Of Jurisdiction To Reopen Appeals: Abdullah Bin A Rahman V Public Prosecutor [[1994] 3 Slr [Singapore Law Reports] 129, Ca]; Lim Choon Chye V Public Prosecutor [[1994] 3 Slr 135, Ca], Jack Tsen-Ta Lee

Jack Tsen-Ta LEE

It is ironic that Abdullah bin A Rahman v PP and Lim Choon Chye v PP were decided in the aftermath of the Birmingham Six, Guildford Four and Maguire Seven cases from the United Kingdom. As in these cases, Abdullah and Lim Choon Chye highlight a serious flaw in our criminal justice system: there appears to be no appropriate way to correct miscarriages of justice. The purpose of this case note is to set out the conclusions reached by the Court of Appeal and to suggest directions for the future.

The Comparative Method And Law Reform, Darius Whelan Jan 1988

The Comparative Method And Law Reform, Darius Whelan

Darius Whelan

This 1988 LLM thesis examines law reform, the comparative method, and the combination of these two elements. A broad definition of law reform is adopted, to include law reform by legislators and judges, and proposals for law reform from law reform agencies and from academics. It is explained that the comparative method (commonly referred to as comparative law) is still at an experimental stage, and that no particularly rigid method of comparison has been adopted for the purposes of this thesis. The theory of reception and legal transplants is discussed, from Montesquieu to date. Particular emphasis is placed on the …

Attempting The Impossible: The Emerging Consensus, Ira P. Robbins Dec 1985

Attempting The Impossible: The Emerging Consensus, Ira P. Robbins

Ira P. Robbins

Impossible attempts are situations in which an actor fails to consummate a substantive crime because he is mistaken about attendant circumstances. Professor Robbins divides mistakes regarding circumstances into three categories: mistakes of fact, mistakes of law, and mistakes of mixed fact and law. Courts and commentators disagree primarily over the identification and treatment of mixed fact law cases. Professor Robbins surveys each category of mistake. He then examines the objective, subjective, and hybrid approaches to dealing with the mixed fact/law category. The objective approach requires an objective manifestation of the actor's intent before conviction is allowed. The subjective approach permits …

Changing The Public Drunkenness Laws: The Impact Of Decriminalization, David Aaronson Dec 1977

Changing The Public Drunkenness Laws: The Impact Of Decriminalization, David Aaronson

David Aaronson

Laws that decriminalize public drunkenness continue to use the police as the major intake agent for public inebriates under the "new" public health model of detoxification and treatment. Assuming that decriminalization introduces many disincentives to police intervention using legally sanctioned procedures, we hypothesize that it will be fol- lowed by a statistically significant decline in the number of public inebriates formally handled by the police in the manner designated by the "law in the books." Using an "interrupted time-series quasi- experiment" based on a "stratified multiple-group single-I design," we confirm this hypothesis for Washington, D.C., and Minneapolis, Minnesota. However, through …

On The Linguistic Design Of Multinational Courts—The French Capture, Mathilde Cohen Dec 19

On The Linguistic Design Of Multinational Courts—The French Capture, Mathilde Cohen

Mathilde Cohen

This Article discusses the importance of language in the institutional design of European and international courts, which I refer to as “linguistic design.”  What is at stake in the choice a court’s official or working language? Picking a language has far-reaching consequences on a court’s composition and internal organizational culture, possibly going as far as influencing the substantive law produced.  This is the case because language choices impact the screening of the staff and the manufacture of judicial opinions.  Linguistic design imposes costs on non-native speakers forced to use a second (or third) language and confers a set of advantages …
