The Court Security Amendment Act 2017, Bill 17, introduced in the 41st legislature of the Manitoba Assembly sought to amend the previous act. It granted more rights to the sheriffs and guards of the court. This bill allowed the security officers to conduct searches for liquor, illegal drugs and weapons. Along with the searching of the aforementioned items, the security staff would then be allowed to seize the prohibited items for the security of the courts. They were also granted the rights to deny entry to the courthouse based on a reasonable suspicion for two reasons. Firstly, the person denied entry has declined the security screening for the prohibited items including weapons. Secondly, if the person has been screened and does a …show more content…
The second point of contention with this bill arose out of concerns with the power granted to the security. More specifically Andrew Swan is concerned with the re-entry of barred persons, questioning if there will be an appeal process to regain entry via an independent third party, “[I]t's her intention that there be no other objective look or appeal process” (Hansard, 22 Mar 2017, p. 902). This essentially is a concern about the amount of discretion given to the officers, as it could be misused, and people may be barred based on prejudices some security officers may have, “[The Minister of Justice] is conflating the idea of security with the ability to simply prevent someone from being able to be there.” (Hansard, 22 Mar 2017, p. 903). Similar concerns that arose during the second reading are brought up once more in the committee meeting. Andrew Swan again advocates that the discretion given could be problematic, as well as including marijuana on the prohibited list could eventually be problematic, as people with medical conditions requiring medical marijuana may be unable to access the courts. By giving the security officers the power to remove people from the courthouse it could be due to a lack of knowledge or nerves brought on by the courts themselves, “I wouldn't want someone's bad day in court to wind up preventing them from having the usual broad access
On September 17, 1787 framers in Philadelphia signed “The Constitution of the United States in which it was approved on June 21, 1788 by the ninth state. Once confirmed, along with the addition to the Bill of Rights it developed a mutual standard by which Americans determined the responsibilities and limits of their government. Looking to the Constitution to decide political discrepancies has helped to substitute and preserve a general agreement among people that are otherwise diverse. The Constitution, although two centuries of complications and trials of the American experiment in self-government, is a testament to the cleverness and anticipation of its framers.

Article 92 of the uniform code of military justice is when a solider fails to obey an order or regulation given to them by an NCO, officer, or someone pointed above them in section or squad. Article 92 is perhaps the most important article in the entirety of the Uniform Code of Military Justice. Any military member, whether in the Army, Air Force, Marines, Navy, or Coast Guard who fail to obey a lawful order of their superiors risk serious consequences. Article 92 of the Uniform Code of Military Justice makes it a crime to disobey any lawful order. It lays down the ground law, the absolute line which may not be crossed. Everything else in the uniform code of military justice is explanation of the various forms that disobeying an order can
In the development process of America, its sound that legislative system has a very solid foundation for the construction of American society. The Bill of Rights as one of the successful act in America, its importance position has never been ignored.

It can not only guarantee the harmonious relationship among all the walk of society, but can also promote the construction of harmonious
This is to guarantee that children may only be detained under the Migration Act for only on necessary matters such as identity, health and security checks. Children shouldn’t even be behind bars. They should be able to be released into the community as they have just as much right as everyone else does. We need new laws that make detention of children the last resort – not the first or the only option. We need new laws that make detention of children for the shortest proper period of time – not for indefinite periods of time. And we need new laws that make the best interests of the child a primary consideration – not laws that force a choice between indefinite detention and family separation. There also needs to be an individual assessment of the need to detain children and an effective review of detention in the courts. Our immigration laws need to be amended as a matter of urgency to ensure Australia’s full agreement with the international human rights standards.
When we spoke last week we discussed the school district’s concerns regarding child find under Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 for students who have an individual health plan (“IHP”).
One of the most recent significant changes to California corrections is the passing of Assembly Bill 109 (AB 109) by Governor Jerry Brown in April of 2011. The realignment is a program that was created as a result of overcrowding in state prisons, and it served to redirect non-violent offenders to county jails and put them under the supervision of county probation officers instead of sending them to state prisons. It “…shifted responsibility for people convicted of certain non-serious, nonviolent or non-sex felony offenses from state prisons and parole, to county jails and probation…” as an alternative (CalRealignment.ORG). AB 109 was primarily the result of a U.S. Supreme Court upholding a lower court’s ruling in Brown V. Plata. The court mandated California to reduce state prison overcrowding because the conditions in these prisons were so bad. The conditions were so terrible, especially when it came to certain

On Friday, April, 4, 2014, I observed the Vanderburgh County Superior Court to observe different family law cases. The cases I heard involved contempt of court for failing to pay child support, failure to appear for a court appointed drug test, birth certificate affidavit, request for contest hearing time, and an issue of paternity case. Magistrate Judge Sheila M. Corcoran was presiding over the family court hearings. When entering the courthouse, I was greeted by security and advised to remove any cell phones, and/or, any other items that would trigger a metal detector. After this, I proceeded straight to look for the family courtroom. After roaming around mindlessly for a couple minutes, I decided to ask the courthouse officer monitoring
The bill I chose for this paper was proposition 35. This proposition was proposed in the fall election of 2012. Proposition 35, also known as “Californians against Sexual Exploitation Act”, was primarily about increasing the penalty for sex trafficking. The bill would increase prison sentences for human traffickers, require convicted human traffickers to register as sex offenders, require all registered sex offenders to disclose their internet accounts (such as Facebook), require criminal fines from convicted human traffickers to pay for services to help victims, and lastly mandate law enforcement training for identifying human trafficking. The fiscal impact of this bill was estimated and
If a soldier is late for a formation he is in violation of Article 86 of the UCMJ, Failure to Report to Appointed Place of Duty. The supervisor must then counsel his soldier and attempt to correct this behavior. The supervisor has a lot of latitude to decide how to punish this soldier. He can make the soldier report 30 minutes prior to the first formation for the day for five consecutive days. This would typically have him reporting at 0600 hours rather than 0630 hours. He could have him report to the Staff Duty NCO every 4 hours through the night for a specified number of days. This would take away the soldier 's time creating an unpleasent situation for that soldier.
