Toward A Theory Of Procedural Justice For Juveniles, Tamar R. Birckhead
Toward A Theory Of Procedural Justice For Juveniles, Tamar R. Birckhead
Tamar R Birckhead
Courts and legislatures have long been reluctant to make use of the data, findings, and recommendations generated by other disciplines when determining questions of legal procedure affecting juveniles, particularly when the research has been produced by social scientists. However, given the United States Supreme Court’s recent invocation of developmental psychology in Roper v. Simmons, which invalidated the juvenile death penalty, there is reason to believe that such resistance is waning. In 2005 the Simmons Court found, inter alia, that based on research on adolescent development, juveniles are not as culpable as adults and, therefore, cannot be classified among the “worst …

A Complexidade Do Problema E A Simplicidade Da Solução: A Questão Das Penas Mínimas, Maira Machado
Núcleo de Estudos sobre o Crime e a Pena
Este relatório busca oferecer elementos ao debate sobre a pertinência das penas mínimas de prisão na legislação criminal. Após um exercício de conceituação da pena mínima, narramos brevemente as práticas legislativas de países com diferentes tradições jurídicas (França, Brasil e Canadá) nos últimos duzentos anos. O objetivo aqui foi traçar um panorama do surgimento dessa prática e realçar as diferentes formas construídas pela legislação para flexibilizar ou minimizar seus efeitos. Em seguida, narramos, em relação aos mesmos países, algumas experiências judiciais de questionamento ou confirmação da prática de estabelecer mínimos na legislação. Esse estudo levou-nos a observar mais de perto …

Individual Liability Of Company Officers, Neil J. Foster
Individual Liability Of Company Officers, Neil J. Foster
Neil J Foster
It has been recognised for some time that a key strategy in changing corporate behaviour is the possibility of personal liability being sheeted home to individual company officers. This paper argues for the desirability of laws imposing personal liability, discusses the operation of law imposing such liability in the law of occupational health and safety in the UK, and compares that law with the operation of similar law in another common law jurisdiction, the Australian State of New South Wales. It is hoped that the comparison and review of the fairly extensive case law which has developed under the NSW …

Examining The "Csi-Effect" In The Cases Of Circumstantial Evidence And Eyewitness Testimony: Multivariate And Path Analyses, Hon. Donald E. Shelton, Young S. Kim, Gregg Barak
Hon. Donald E. Shelton
As part of a larger investigation of the changing nature of juror behavior in the context of technology development, this study examined important questions unanswered by previous studies on the “CSI-effect.” In answering such questions, the present study applied multivariate and path analyses for the first time. The results showed that (a) watching CSI dramas had no independent effect on jurors' verdicts, (b) the exposure to CSI dramas did not interact with individual characteristics, (c) different individual characteristics were significantly associated with different types of evidence, and (d) CSI watching had no direct effect on jurors' decisions, and it had …

The Legal And Practical Aspects Of Atm's In Tanzania, Daudi Mwita Nyamaka Mr.
Daudi Mwita Nyamaka Mr.
The concern of our study was to examine the legal and practical aspects of ATMs in Tanzania. The major problems that were being examined are; the 24 hours operation on ATMs vis-à-vis system failure or error and the system of one bank allowing cardholders of another bank to use its ATMs. With the first problem, all banks in Tanzania with ATMs have attractive advertisements to customers that affirm sufficient services in any time of the day but in reality, the machines usually fail to respond the instructions of the cardholder regardless the fact that the cardholder inserts the card and …

Police-Induced Confessions: Risk Factors And Recommendations, Saul M. Kassin, Steven A. Drizin, Thomas Grisso, Gisli H. Gudjonsson, Richard A. Leo, Allison D. Redlich
Richard A. Leo
Recent DNA exonerations have shed light on the problem that people sometimes confess to crimes they did not commit. Drawing on police practices, laws concerning the admissibility of confession evidence, core principles of psychology, and forensic studies involving multiple methodologies, this White Paper summarizes what is known about police-induced confessions. In this review, we identify suspect characteristics (e.g., adolescence; intellectual disability; mental illness; and certain personality traits), interrogation tactics (e.g., excessive interrogation time; presentations of false evidence; and minimization), and the phenomenology of innocence (e.g., the tendency to waive Miranda rights) that influence confessions as well as their effects on …
