First and foremost, the meaning of crime is any act or omission of duty resulting in harm to society that is punishable by the state. On the face of it there is no clear definition of what those acts or omisions actually are. When a crime has been committed the prosecution has the 'standard of proof' to prove 'beyond resonable doubt' to a jury that the accused had committed the 'actus rea' and/or 'mens rea'. The Actus Rea refers to the guilty act and the Mens Rea refers to the guilty mind or the planning of the crime. During strict liability offences, mens rea doesn't have to be proven only the actus rea. This is because the act is enough to charge someone as the judge sees fit.

Although I heard or read about a public official’s story sometime before that, the man would not wish as his creed a public position but never reject it if asked from anyone. I agree with his opinion although I want to say a little if I will practice what he said, that is, I would not wish, reject and resign from the public position. If they want me to resign from the county clerk wishing someone instead, it would be better to take away the status from me. I would never dispose of the right that I could revenge my enemies someday after offered a letter of resignation.

During a time in which white supremacy was being challenged by an ever-increasing African population, a woman named Margaret Sanger “sought to purify America’s breeding stock and purge America’s bad stains” (Planned Parenthood). She set out to establish the American Birth Control League, which eventually became the Planned Parenthood Federation of America (PPFA). Sanger’s actions provoked much controversy because at the time not only was contraception illegal in the United States, but it was denounced by almost every major religious denomination (Contraception History). Margaret Sanger set out on a mission to overcome first the church and then the state in order to “stop bringing to

First off the does seem that the sheriff was in the wrong in the demotion of the deputy from both a legal and a subsequent policy violation. It appears that the sheriff may have violated the deputies first amendment rights, although a preexisting department policy forbidding holding or running for office by the deputy may protect the sheriff from liability in this instance. What would have been a better scenario is that the sheriffs department had and independent inquiry on this matter to see if the deputy violated any law or internal policy, however the sheriff being an elected official simply looks as though he is firing the deputy out of retribution thus possibly weakening his his public image. Not only does it seem that the sheriff may have violated the deputies first amendment rights but may have also violated his freedom of religion, not only this but the United States is a secularist democracy with very touted ideals of the separation of both the church and state from one another.

A complaint was filed against Mr. Doré, by the Syndic du Barreau for violation of article 2.03 of the Code of ethics of advocates, R.R.Q. 1981, c. B-1, r.1, and oath of office. The article stated that the “conduct of an advocate must bear the stamp of objectivity, moderation and dignity” (Para. 13) which the judicial council concluded that Mr. Doré violated.

In explaining what is means to require the prosecution to disclose exculpatory evidence. Do to the due process the prosecution has a constitutional duty to reveal exculpatory evidence to the defense. According to Worrall If the prosecution obtain evidence suggesting that the defense is not guilty, it needs to inform the defense of the facts.

John Baker’s edition of “The Lanahan Readings in state and Local Government” talks about different policy rules local and state governments have to go through in their political careers. In chapter 23, “Measuring State Legislative Professionalism”, Baker summarizes how local and state professionalism are characterized through three main components. These components are based on an index performance that Peverill Squire created. His index compares local/ state government to the national government. In figuring out whether a state/local government is considered professional, he uses three main components. These components are compensation and benefits, time demand of service, and staff and resources. Today, these components are considered the

There are certain principles in the constitution that the US Supreme court should rely on when it comes to defining the limits of state and federal authority. To define these limits concepts such as implied powers, checks and balances, separation of powers and limited government will be discussed along with the benefit that comes with their implementation in our government.

The term democracy comes from the Greek language and means "rule by the people."(Democracy Building 2012) The democracy in Athens represents the events leading up to modern day democracies.

Philosophers defined the essential elements of democracy as a separation of powers, basic civil rights, human rights, religious liberty and separation of church and state. The most current definition of a democracy is defined as a “government by the people; a form of government in which the supreme power is vested in the people and exercised directly by them or by their elected agents under a free electoral
