On The Organization Of The Pro Curatorial Organs In China And Its Reform Of The Internal Institutions, Ji Meijun

ProAcademy

The organizational structure of Chinese prosecutor’s organs reflects country’s historical traditions and legal system, and thus it clearly differentiates from other jurisdiction in the world, especially the jurisdictions of the common law legal system. The article starts with the constitutional grounds for prosecutor’s activities, and focuses on the major developments in the structure and powers of Chinese prosecutor’s Organs. The changes are analysed that took place with the creation of the National Supervisory Commission, when the power of investigation of duty crimes of the prosecutor’s organs has been taken away. The prosecutorial agencies and the courts belong to different power …

The Development Of Intellectual Disabilities In United States Capital Cases And The Modern Application Of Moore V. Texas To State Court Decisions, Dr. Alexander Updegrove Jun 2021

The Development Of Intellectual Disabilities In United States Capital Cases And The Modern Application Of Moore V. Texas To State Court Decisions, Dr. Alexander Updegrove

University of Massachusetts Law Review

Although in 1989 the Supreme Court of the United States initially held that the Eighth Amendment did not prohibit executing persons with intellectual disabilities in Penry v. Lynaugh, in 2002 it subsequently reversed this decision in Atkins v. Virginia, citing changing state legislation. Since the Atkins decision, state courts have interpreted the Court’s Atkins provisions in a variety of ways, some more faithfully than others. As a result, the Court provided additional clarification in its 2014 and 2015 Hall v. Florida and Brumfield v. Cain decisions, ruling that states must apply a Standard Error of Measurement of +5/-5 to all …

The Professional Liability Of The Legal Advisor: A Jordanian And English Law Perspective: A Critical Study, Nisreen Mahasneh, Ayman Khaled Masadeh Mar 2021

The Professional Liability Of The Legal Advisor: A Jordanian And English Law Perspective: A Critical Study, Nisreen Mahasneh, Ayman Khaled Masadeh

UAEU Law Journal

This study deals with the professional liability of the legal advisor. To attain this purpose it starts by distinguishing between a lawyer who represents his client before courts and a mere legal advisor who undertakes the paper work and consultations. This study tries to follow the position of the Jordanian Bar Law as to whether it recognizes this distinction between an agent lawyer and a mere lawyer who submits a legal advice. Moreover, there are particular duties which lie on a lawyer, the question being here whether the wordings of the provisions of the Jordanian Bar Law extend to cover …

The Theory Of Emergency Circumstances And Its Impact On Judicial Judgments: A Comparative Study., Dr. Yasser Bassem Al-Sabawi, Ruaa Khalil Ibrahim Feb 2021

The Theory Of Emergency Circumstances And Its Impact On Judicial Judgments: A Comparative Study., Dr. Yasser Bassem Al-Sabawi, Ruaa Khalil Ibrahim

UAEU Law Journal

Issuing a judicial judgment is considered to be the outcome which requires resting to court and bringing legal actions before them. If such an end is accomplished by the issuance of a judicial judgment, the next procedure shall be to execute what is included in this judgment in order for each person to achieve their right. However the circumstances accompanying such an execution may not be the same circumstances in the light of which the judicial judgment has been issued; rather they may change according to emergent events coming upon the judicial judgment after being issued, which in turn affect …


The Legal Nature Of Objection For Arbitration Agreement, Dr. Abdullah Abdul Rahman Al-Khatib Feb 2021

The Legal Nature Of Objection For Arbitration Agreement, Dr. Abdullah Abdul Rahman Al-Khatib

UAEU Law Journal

It is conceded that arbitration agreement prevents parties from filing their lawsuit before the courts. Thus, if one of the parties did not comply with this restriction and, nonetheless, resorted to the court, the respondent can preclude the claimant through an Objection to dismiss the case and refer the dispute to arbitration. The legal system in the UAE recognizes three types of objections, in which, each has its own provisions and rules. Non-observance of these rules may result in severe consequences to an extent the litigant’s right to insist it may be extinguished. As a result, it is imperative to …


Look Who's Talking: Differences In Rates Of Interruptions And Proportion Of Time Used By Male And Female U.S. Courts Of Appeals Judges, Sabrina L. Collins, Molly G Baldock, Jasmyne N. Post, Elizabeth Turner Feb 2021

Look Who's Talking: Differences In Rates Of Interruptions And Proportion Of Time Used By Male And Female U.S. Courts Of Appeals Judges, Sabrina L. Collins, Molly G Baldock, Jasmyne N. Post, Elizabeth Turner

Grawemeyer Colloquium Papers

During oral arguments, attorneys are given the chance to elaborate on their written briefs and answer questions from the judges deciding the case. Studying oral arguments can be a window into the power dynamics between judges and attorneys, and can shed light onto how factors like gender may affect judicial decision-making. While a growing body of research has examined gender dynamics in oral arguments in the United States Supreme Court, no existing studies have examined whether these findings hold up in the U.S. Court of Appeals, the second highest courts in the country. We collected data on two years of …
