Grass court

case did not meet the requirements to be held in federal court, and like this was hears in the State Courts. Because the defendant was being tried for First-degree rape, which is a felony, the trial was held in Superior Court. The Superior Court has original jurisdiction in felony cases.

convincing evidence, unless the child is placed under jurisdiction of the adult court under a waive, in which case the standard of proof is beyond a reasonable doubt (938.243 (h)). The standard of proof needed for juvenile matters is greater than CHIPS or civil actions, where all that is needed is a preponderance of evidence, but less than what is needed to convict in criminal matters. The language used in the juvenile justice court system is a strength in the process, as it highlights…

A court house is where a lot legal issues are resolved or deferred to another court or a higher authority. However, the individuals who make up the court range from a clerk all way to a judge. These individuals all have different jobs in which make the court run smoothly. With the court system everything needs to be organized and have a systematic approach. In this paper I will be discussing an individual who works with the Middlesex County Superior Court in the Civil Law Division, her title is…

a law created (I believe) around twenty years before the time this movie takes place says you can not be fired for disability. But, AIDS counts in that realm due to other cases that have been tried in courts around the nation. These cases give Andrew a real chance in getting his case heard in court, and without them, he would have had an even steeper up-hill battle to…

The process of the criminal justice system A juror was sitting on a jury for a trial of a man accused of robbing a bank. There was not enough evidence to convict him, so the jury had to declare him not guilty. When the foreman announced, “Not guilty!” the defendant jumped to his feet. “Cool!!” he shouted. “Does that mean I get to keep all the cash?” (Author unknown) Our justice system worked exactly the way the criminal justice system was designed to work. People are innocent until proven guilty…

that case did not show how the court was inconsistence on paper, ensuring that he could not prove neither discrimination on an employment application and not even a corrupt judicial system. Thus, this particular case was thrown out and the court system was not seen as the bad guy in this court case. People of this state continue to see how the judicial system keeps this doctrine in place with not just bankruptcy proceedings, but in any case that tries to deter the courts. On the other hand,…

In the play, 12 Angry Men, by Reginald Rose, the characters of this story appear to be nothing more than average people picked to stand and listen to a case of a boy accused of homicide. As the characters are supposed to leave personal issues at the door of the case, some appear to use them against the boy. Using these imperfect jurors, people can see how that when insecurities, flaws, and the law form together, the justice system can be found. The justice system is neither perfect nor is it…

more days, and though I did not attend, I kept updated on the case. I found out that the defendant continued to show up wearing whatever he felt like, with no regards of his character or respect to the courts. Also, that his demeanor continued to be very poor. He was almost held in contempt of court for disobeying the judge to keep silent. In the end he was sentenced to 19 years in prison. It was also rare, that almost all jurors returned for the sentencing, which most do not attend because they…
