facts of legal matters are thoroughly analyzed in scientific manner to gain pertinent information that can ultimately be used in an investigation and subsequent prosecution. The evidences are then analysed and classified to document the observation. Forensic scientists who store the evidences work in close coordination with the attorneys, law enforcement and medical examiners. In order to restructure a crime scene, scientific methods are used to facilitate analysis of physical…
example, EQ skills could fine-tune our awareness of who deals best with certain clients (including difficult or challenging clients) and who works well as a negotiator. (We will look at being a negotiator later in this course.) These are important observations as we can utilise this information to train our lawyers (and ourselves) for the acquisition of knowledge, skills and even behaviours. How our EQ benefits our clients Having a workplace that is supportive and balanced is only part of the…
Based on both of my observations, the judicial and legislative branches both focused on multiple issues because in district court there are more than one case brought forward to the judge. In order for someone to understand a certain council members personality, you need to patiently wait until it was that persons turn to speak up in front of everyone in regards to the issues they chose to speak on. In the courtroom, it was a lot easier to make judgements about a person…
death penalty is dehumanizing. Shortly after, nearby observers discuss the hanging of Dick. One observer believes that Dick “[didn’t] feel nothing,” but his companion questions this; he “could hear him gasping for breath” (392). By including the observation of Dick “gasping for breath” before he finally died, Capote suggests that Dick suffers before his death. In addition, Capote challenges the idea that executions are quick and painless by implying that Dick could have suffered for the…
“To Kill a Mockingbird” Ever since we were little, our world revolved around what people in our society taught is. Some of the lessons we learned were about discriminating others because of their physical appearance. Tom Robinson was a coloured man living in Maycomb. He soon found himself in a situation that was impossible to escape from due to his skin colour and the position he was in may have caused him his life. In Harper Lee’s “To Kill a Mockingbird” the theme of racism is something that…
and early scientist like Carolus Linnaeus believed that species were unchanging, created specifically as they were by God. While sailing on the HMS Beagle, Darwin, inspired by the works of Hutton and Lyell began to develop his theory based on the observations that he made and specimens he studied. Although he had the gist of his theory laid out well before the release of his book, he anticipated the controversy it would cause and was reluctant to publish…
talk about Marie’s history or personality, the only thing ever mentioned is her “firm breasts” and “tan face” leading to the superficial, passion filled Meursault (34). Also, in the courtroom passage, three judges enter the room, two in black “one in red” and the prosecutor dressed in red as well (85) . This observation of color can be viewed as the anger Meursault has towards society. Society is represented by the head judge and prosecutor, both of whom wear red to show Meursault’s exacerbation…
the cafeteria. This time Ramona was the one that was running behind, so I decided to get breakfast in the meantime. So when Ramona arrived around 8:20 am she took me to the North wing on the 6th floor. We were going to the Drug Court areas. The courtrooms for the drug courts are set up so differently and their smaller than I thought. But believe me that it takes an army to run everything inside every court room. Everything gets documented. While the judge has a case going on, other lawyers are…
sexual commodity even in the courtroom. In a scene, Biegler asks Laura to let her hair down and even remove her glasses so that the jury sees her in a different light and not an object. She is asked to be quiet. Her body and personal life are discussed publicly and no asks her how she feel about the matter being discussed. She is treated like an object or evidence, which is to be used to resolve the case. The Anatomy of a Murder brings to light the bridge between observation and…
The Plea Bargaining Process The plea bargaining process has become one of the best ways today that the courts use to help clear up the caseloads as well as lower the costs. When a case goes to a jury trial it can cost the courts money due to the witnesses and jurors that need to be called in for the trials. When a case gets settled through the plea bargaining process it will bypass the jury trial stage eliminating that extra cost to the courts. Plea bargaining can be in the best interest for…
