Criminal Settlement In The Uae Criminal Procedure Law, Fatima Salem Al Dhaheri
Thesis/ Dissertation Defenses
In pursuit of enhancing justice and improving the efficiency of the criminal justice system, modern legislations have witnessed significant developments in the mechanisms through which the state exercises its right to impose sanctions. This has been achieved through the adoption of innovative approaches in criminal policy. Several legal systems have embraced alternative mechanisms to resolve criminal disputes outside the framework of traditional criminal proceedings, whether in cases of violations (infractions), misdemeanors, or even certain felonies.
In line with this approach, the UAE legislator introduced the Criminal Settlement System in the latest amendment to the Federal Criminal Procedure Law as an …

Leveraging Benford’S Law And Machine Learning For Financial Fraud Detection, Benjamin R. Fu
Cybersecurity Undergraduate Research Showcase
Financial fraud, particularly credit card fraud, continues to pose substantial challenges to financial institutions due to its increasing frequency and impact on consumer trust. While traditional rule-based methods have provided foundational defenses, their limitations in scalability and adaptability have accelerated the adoption of machine learning (ML) techniques. Concurrently, Benford’s Law—a statistical principle often used in forensic accounting—has demonstrated efficacy in detecting anomalies within naturally occurring numerical datasets. This study explores a hybrid fraud detection approach that integrates Benford’s Law with supervised machine learning algorithms, including Logistic Regression, Random Forest, and k-Nearest Neighbors. Using the publicly available European credit card fraud …

This paper examines how biometric data is stored, the vulnerabilities it faces, and the most effective methods for safeguarding it. By highlighting the critical importance of biometric data protection, this study reviews current research on approaches, strategies, and policies that enhance security while preserving the functionality and efficiency of biometric systems.
Trace Evidence Vs Memory Evidence: Comparing Evidence Collection Tools, Faith Nielsen, M. Kimberly Maclin
Trace Evidence Vs Memory Evidence: Comparing Evidence Collection Tools, Faith Nielsen, M. Kimberly Maclin
INSPIRE Student Research and Engagement Conference
Memory evidence and forensic evidence are both residual traces of an event. While traditional trace evidence (hair, fiber, blood, fingerprints, etc.) is left behind by a perpetrator, memory evidence resides in a person’s mind, usually that of a victim or witness. Both types of evidence have the possibility of contamination; given that memory evidence cannot be bagged and tagged like other types of forensic evidence, it is especially susceptible to contamination which can undercut its ultimate reliability. In court, jurors often have trouble conceptualizing the complexity of memory or even thinking about it as evidence at all. Drawing similarities between …

As the world became increasingly interconnected, the significance of international law has been augmented exponentially. International law encompasses a vast array of legal systems, written norms, and customary principles that govern the interactions between states, still being the primal and main norm creators, as well as to some extent international organizations, and other non-state actors (NSA) gaining more and more influence, and finally us - individuals. In recent times, the utilization of law as a tool of warfare has gained prominence, with public and private entities leveraging legal arguments and international institutions to achieve their military and political objectives.

The Frozen Sleeping Giant: How The U.S. Can Awaken To Arctic Challenges And Advance Its Northern Interests, Daniel White
Graduate Research Conference (GSIS)
For much of human history, the Arctic Ocean was persistently inaccessible to mass trade and transportation. With warming global temperatures, the ice of the Arctic Ocean is slowly giving way to navigable ocean, and creating new opportunities for states wanting to take advantage of the upcoming maritime access. With U.S. adversaries like Russia and China pursuing their Arctic interests, one would assume that the U.S. is hard at work at reinforcing its Arctic territory. Despite the United States being the global hegemon, scholars have remained puzzled as to why the U.S. has continued an apparent apathy towards the Arctic. This …

Soft Law, Activism, And Climate Displacement: Rethinking International Protections For The Environmentally Displaced, Guljannat Huseynli, Andrea G. Brown
Graduate Research Conference (GSIS)
Climate change is displacing millions of people globally, yet those forced to migrate due to environmental factors remain unprotected under existing international refugee law. This paper argues that legal recognition for climate refugees can emerge not through immediate treaty reform but through the evolution of soft law and norm creation. Drawing on constructivist theory, it examines how activism, international organizations, and legal precedents contribute to shifting global norms. Through case studies such as Ioane Teitiota v. New Zealand and the Fridays for Future movement, the paper shows how strategic litigation and advocacy can build momentum for future legal protections. It …

Vigilantism is one of the oldest practices of mankind; for as long as there have been moral and legal laws to govern us and live by, there have been individuals who have sought justice outside these systems. Vigilantism is the response to failures in the justice system, and in the United States in particular, we have seen examples from the Western Frontier to the modern-day digital landscape. This paper will explore the nature of vigilante justice through historical, psychological, media-driven, legal, and digital lenses. We will explore how cultural narratives, media influences, government actions, and psychological motivations have shaped the …

Humanitarian Intervention In International Law, Rashed Salem Alawani
Thesis/ Dissertation Defenses
Humanitarian intervention represents a complex and controversial strategy in international relations, with its declared aim being the protection of individuals from severe human rights abuses and humanitarian suffering, particularly in contexts of conflict and crises. Despite the good intentions that may motivate humanitarian interventions, they raise complex questions around sovereignty, ethical responsibility, and unintended consequences. This study explores the issue of whether intervention for the protection of human rights can be considered a legitimate necessity justified by legal grounds and examines the impact of such intervention on state sovereignty and international relations. The study concludes with several findings, most notably …

The Role Of Judicial Diligence In Developing Administrative Law In The United Arab Emirates, Amal Saeed Al Nakhebi
Thesis/ Dissertation Defenses
The general rule is that the judge is obligated to adjudicate any dispute brought before him, so he must search for a solution within the folds of legislative texts, and then other sources of the legal rule, and the texts may not help the judge while looking at the cases before him, but he cannot refrain from ruling on the pretext of the absence of a text that can be applied to the case brought before him, so it was necessary for the judge to strive to search for an appropriate solution, otherwise he would be denying justice.

The Criminal Confrontation Of Discrimination Crimes In Uae Law Under Federal Law By Decree No (34) Of 2023 Concerning Combating Discrimination, Hatred And Extremis, Hamda Mohammed Alshamsi
Thesis/ Dissertation Defenses
Discrimination is a reprehensible act that undermines equality and fair opportunities. International efforts and national penal legislation have responded by criminalising this behaviour and enforcing penalties, given its threat to national peace and human dignity. The United Arab Emirates, with its unique diversity of citizens and residents differing in colour, gender, ethnic, and religious backgrounds, fosters coexistence under the rule of law and equality. The UAE legislature has proactively taken steps to combat discrimination, enacting specific preventive legislation: Federal Decree-Law No. (34) of 2023 on Combating Discrimination, Hatred, and Extremism.
This study offers a critical analysis of the criminal prosecution …
