Detention Of Children Under Vietnamese Administrative Law: Is It Criminal?, Cheryl J. Lorens
Detention Of Children Under Vietnamese Administrative Law: Is It Criminal?, Cheryl J. Lorens
Cheryl J Lorens
In the Socialist Republic of Vietnam the administrative law system permits executive authorities to detain children who have committed minor violations of the law for up to two years in reform schools. Under Vietnamese law these children have not committed a criminal offence and remain outside the protections of article 14 of the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR).

Holmes And The Common Law: A Jury's Duty, Matthew P. Cline
Matthew P Cline
The notion of a small group of peers whose responsibility it is to play a part in determining the outcome of a trial is central to the common conception of the American legal system. Memorialized in the Constitution of the United States as a fundamental right, and in the national consciousness as the proud, if begrudged, duty of all citizens, juries are often discussed, but perhaps not always understood. Whatever misunderstandings have come to be, certainly many of them sprang from the juxtaposition of jury and judge. Why do we have both? How are their responsibilities divided? Who truly decides …

Trials And Tribulations, Curtis E.A. Karnow
Curtis E.A. Karnow
A collection of practical tips and advice for litigators new to the bar, and for more experienced lawyers wishing to improve the odds of a receptive judge and jury. The advice applies to oral advocacy, trial, trial preparation, and other issues concerning presentation such as interacting with the jury and witnesses, courtroom staff, motions (including in limine motions), handling evidence, simulation and animations. This is the stuff they don’t teach in law school. (Presentation, Bar Assn. Of San Francisco & Barrister's Club, June 2013)
