Case Analysis : ' V. Wu, James Jian Hua

The trial of Columbus versus the state took place is took place and was a grueling debate of whether or not Columbus was to be sentenced for the crimes that were committed or not to be. As the prosecution continued to charge Columbus the defence continually discredited there arguement because of how they evidently had no proof that Columbus himself was responsible for the crimes committed. At first this made it very interesting as the trail was not just a push over. However very quickly it became boring a repetitive for the jury to watch. Then with the constant yelling of objection it became painstaking long to watch as it seemed like there wasn't even a trail going on. In addition to that the fifteen minute long answer by one of the witnesses was extremely drawn out seeing as no new information was presented except for at the start because of how the witness refused to give a yes or no answer and kept repeating her statement. Although the rest of the trail was pretty well done. Both side of the trail were very well prepared making for the most part an eventful fun to watch. The constant screaming between mostly Mason and James was to say the least very funny and especially with the constant belittlement of James. The reason I voted the way I did was because of how, like I stated before, the evidence brought against Columbus was all

In a trial, all the attorneys must present their opening statements. The actual trial began in early 1986. Their opening statements consist of the attorneys describing how they’re going to present their rationale. The plaintiffs’ attorneys made their opening statements favor their clients and make their defendants look like big companies that did something terrible and that they needed to be punished for it. The defendants opening statements involved them saying that they had no involvement in the deaths of these

The most important part of the trial was jury instruction—the defense and prosecution had to convince Judge Hall to guide the jurors in a way that would help their side win. Robert tried to convince Hall to instruct the jurors to interpret Missouri law to allow a slave to defend herself from rape. But Hall refused to do so, and

Between this time and November 3rd 1994 the jury of 12 was selected out of a venire of 304 perspective jurors. All 304 perspective juror’s had a seventy five page questionnaire to complete to determine eligibility for the trial. Both the prosecuting and defending teams set out to present their case. The trial lasted 134 days in 1995 and is renowned for the media coverage from inside

FACTS:  Two men Brady and Boblit were were found guilty of murder in the first degree. The two men were sentenced to death. Both of the men received separate trials. After the trial Brady confessed to planning and commission of the crime, but denied personally committing the murder. Brady’s attorney had requested access to the police statement, but one statement was not present to the court. The statement of Boblit, that he confessed, personally committing the murder himself. The defense requested an appeal and the court of Maryland agreed, and the trial of withholding of evidence proceeded, the court ruled that this was a violation of due process, and remanded the case, and new proceedings commenced.

On Wednesday, February 23, of 2016, from 9am to 11am, I observed a jury charge. A jury charge is a component of the jury process dedicated to instructing the jury of the law to reach a verdict. The instructions are repeated and paraphrased to prevent ambiguity by creating precision to tackle each individual jurors understanding of the law. Rather than observing other courts such as traffic or civil court, I choose to observe the Albany County Judicial Center, criminal court with Judge Herrick. Criminal courts portray a wider view of the court processes. That is, in more serious offenses the role of each member of the court is explicit. Whereas, in other courts, traffic for instance, cases are usually in and out at a rapid pace with limited interaction of court

The case of Hae Min Lee was originally only prominent within Baltimore County of Maryland. It has the trappings of a typical high school murder; a teen is angry at their ex-boyfriend/girlfriend for breaking up with them and as a result, would murder them. However, the case has gained international attention largely due to the investigations from ‘Serial’, which revealed an abnormal number of inconsistencies within the case against Adnan Syed. Eventually, this attention culminated into the granting of a new trial for Adnan. Adnan is most likely guilty because of circumstantial evidence and testimony from other witnesses that demonstrate probable cause for Adnan to murder Hae. Circumstantial evidence is good enough to convict someone if it can

Manual was very calm and comfortable in the courthouse. Almost as if he was a veteran, and seeing how he is the Deputy District Attorney of Weld county I’m sure he has some experience under his belt. Within the first five minutes after the judge entered the room he got straight down to business. Asking for a proposed instruction for evidence being presented the jury be reworded and completely restructured. It was a very meticulous process that the court spent well over five minutes combing over while we waited on the jury. Throughout the day Mr.Pellicer was very blunt and confident, almost to a fault. Any objections or suggestions Mr.Pellicer made in court, Ms.Pearlman (the defending attorney) seemed to say "me too" after. It seemed almost as if she was playing catch up in with the prosecutor. In hindsight, the first five minutes of the case were a great foreshadowing for the events to come. He seemed very passionate about the case and condemning Mr.Olmeda. During direct examination Mr.Pellicer was very concise and direct with his questions, building a great base for his argument. The dichotomous questioning allowed for a great establishment of time, facts, opinions, and evidence. There were rarely any awkward pauses, or moments of shuffling through paperwork during questioning. In fact, Mr.Pellicer made a great use of the pauses during his questioning

Now, all the eyes of Pinewood Estates seemed affixed to him as the courtroom was once again filled with its gallery. Judge Ricardo Sandoval had been told the jury had their decision; Min-jun’s fate was in the hands of the jury. Sandoval cringed with trepidation; he couldn’t lose Min-jun to the prison system.

In terms of the actual trial, it was highly dramatized and clearly intended for a cinematic audience. For one, there were no opening statements given and the trial started off going directly into witness testimony through direct and cross examinations. This is highly inaccurate as the opening statements are a crucial part of the trial in that they aid the jury in understanding the complex legal issues that will unfold (Budziak).

Parts of the jury were additionally quoted later stating they were mindful that they were discharging a murderer, however he was not criminally

The Superior Court session I observed was an alcohol impairment case. The defendant in this case, had been found guilty in District Court, but had filed an appeal to the District Court’s decision.

While I sat there and watched the defense and prosecution argue back and forth about what information should be introduced I realized that it wasn’t exactly like the TV shows I loved to watch. It was so much slower and not as easy to follow. In real life you have the defense and prosecution switching off saying statute numbers to help argue their points and you soon get lost in it all; it’s not easy to understand. There were certain points during the trial that I felt like I didn’t even know what was being said. It definitely felt like the people involved in the criminal trial were speaking a different language to one another and the people watching/observing were just left sitting there confused.

Despite rumors that the defense team consisted of stronger evidence than their opponent, during the mock trial Trial of the Tortoise, the prosecution team presented a cogent case of higher quality than that of the defense, for their first impression in the trial had more emotional appeal, immediately swaying the jury towards their case. For instance, during the introductory statement, the speaker used a dark, mysterious tone, pausing occasionally to build tension as she described the murder and was backed by a slideshow filled with corresponding images that went along with what she narrated. The speaker was extremely powerful, for she described the horrible deed done by the defendant in such a way that it greatly strengthened the prosecution’s

The given case study revolves around the problems of the Lee and Li`s firm which appeared because of the rude interference in its traditional functioning of one of its workers. Being founded in 1953 in Taiwan as the law office, the firm managed to guarantee its blistering evolution and development. On the wave of success, in 1965 the firm was joined by C.N.
