My Interest Gravitated Towards Commercial Law

This paper will cover topics such as; what a court is and what the purpose of the court is. This paper will define the dual court system. In addition this paper will describe the role that early legal codes, the common law and the precedent played in the development of courts. And lastly this paper will identify the role of the courts in the criminal justice system today.

On observing the District Court a number of distinctions from the Local Courts were immediately made apparent. Without going in to detail about the actual structure of the courts, they seemed to fit more closely with the traditional schema of a typical courtroom. In particular the larger courtrooms with more facilities combined with the barristers and magistrates wearing their wig and robes seemed to instantly uphold the ideology of justice. It is interesting to note how appearances can automatically provide an impression that justice will be upheld. The

Legal formalism has been largely criticised by the likes of legal realists and critical legal studies scholars, amid others who believed that the reactions of the judge to the facts and to the life around them needed to be attended to, for its belief in the capacity of legal rules to determine the results of legal arguments without having recourse to the judge’s political beliefs or sense of fairness. This criticism can be found to be viable or not by analysing what legal formalism as an approach to legal practice and judicial decisions is, whether the criticisms, created by legal realists and critical legal studies students, of legal formalism are justified and whether judicial decisions and legal education are still influenced by legal formalism today in South Africa.

The goal is clear and the stakes are high. The story elicits a strong sense of indignation about the theme of law and the court system. The setting of 1963 is authentic.

Those students show a great commitment and had had experience working in these fields. This article relates to what we discussed in class by showing how the interest in law careers have changed throughout time. During week 2, we talked about how professions have been reshaped by our modern ethics and beliefs. When the law profession was adopted in the United States, the practice of law was based on the Great Britain’s law structure, where there were two types of lawyers: barristers and solicitors. Barristers were in charge of arguing a case and taking it to court and solicitors were in charge of handling minor cases. However, as the nation expanded because of new immigrants, the need for the legal profession in the industrial economy increased. The legal profession shifted from ligation to negotiation (Seron). As pointed out by the reading, one of the main reasons law students shifted from public interest practice to pursuing business and corporate law was because of the few resources and limited control they have over their

The law is a powerful tool for the disfranchised and disadvantaged. It can be very difficult to respect yourself in a culture that disrespects you daily. As farmworkers, my parents rights were ignored due to their economic and educational background, regrettably justice only exits for those with resources and knowledge of our legal system. As an educator, I have experienced the wrong in situations with school issues that could have had a legal approach but most often parents were uninformed. I have experienced again and again that justice is not given to people that are unaware of their legal rights. Attending law school provides the opportunity to grow in many aspects, knowledge, skills, and as a person to advocate for equality for marginalized

The course covered a range of topics including,. Although I initially experienced difficulty, the course enabled me to understand the importance of self-motivation, commitment and determination as it required various hours of independent learning in addition to my current studies, extra curriculums and work - considered essentials to be able to successfully combat the challenges of university. ‘Learning the law’ by Glandville Williams alongside Gary slappers, ‘How the law works’ both summarised what the academic study of law entails, giving a unique

The study of History has given me the critical analytical skills of being sharp with seemingly minute yet significant details, such as the time, place and audience that bring out the context of the essence. Meanwhile, studying English Literature has boosted my ability to identify contrasting ideas and explaining them. This is useful for differentiation between legal cases. Most importantly, I have proven my aptitude when I achieved an A- in the Business Law module. Taking everything into account, I believe that these subjects have geared me sufficiently for a rigorous law degree that requires logical thinking, analysis and evaluation that I have been equipped

The Court System in the United States and across the globe are tasked with settling disputes in society. Many different groups of people come together in a courthouse to make sure the legal proceedings run as smoothly as possible. From judges to lawyers, to the people who work behind the scenes, such as paralegals and legal scholars, these individuals are the ones who work diligently to bring closure to any matters that could not be settled outside of a courtroom. And in this paper, we will cover how the court system are organized in what are known as the “model countries”, countries that are well known for their approach to the legal system. These countries are the United States, England, France, Germany, China, Saudi Arabia, and Japan.

The legal system consists of many institutions that can cause reoccurring changes within the system due to the people who make, interpret and enforce the laws. (Tsui, J.C, 2014) Changes within the law include regulations and legal content supporting particular institutions or programs. (Tsui, J.C, 2014) Hierarchies in courts and legislation make decisions in agencies and can interact in forums related to judicial trials, legislative hearing, debates and agency rulemakings. (Tsui, J.C, 2014) Having hierarchies within the legislation system allow the opportunity for voices or opinions to be heard and later the adoption for new rules are enacted. Adopting new rules results in the process of litigation that creates issues and opinions that become overruled. (Tsui, J.C, 2014) Litigation processes and adopting new rules can put alternative juvenile justice system and centers in jeopardy. Faith’s Learning and Guidance Center can become the center of debate and can be put in a predicament that non supporters and supporters can decide its faith. Various judicial opinions can lead to many changes within the judicial system that can either turn for better or worse and unintended consequences have a positive or negative impact on the success of a program. (Tsui, J.C, 2014) Not being able to overcome the disruptions from exogenous forces or endogenous failures is a great risk to any

By encouraging the group, we enthusiastically completed our assignments and I was able to fulfil my role promptly and avoid disciplinary measures from the student affairs unit. I learnt valuable research and communication skills from this experience, which contributed to my success in the bar part II examinations. I intend to deploy these skills in presenting the seminar requirements of the Justice Studies courses and preparing my

Law is an integral, ever present and ever changing component of our society. I began to envisage a career in Law after I witnessed a Rape trial at my local Crown Court with my Law class, which began to ignite my interest in the Justice system. I was eager to discover more and visited the Supreme and Criminal Courts in London. I was fascinated to discover how versatile the Law is and how it adapts to social and economic changes. Legislation ranging from the Abolition of the Death Penalty to the Civil Partnership Act in 2014 shows how vast the Laws effects are. This engrosses me and never fails to leave me pondering as I seek to further my knowledge of the Law. This is why I wish to become a part of this essential and irreplaceable part of our lives during and after I graduate from University.
