The Administration Of Civil Law

The law of nature requires things to be in constant balance; meaning where there is good, there is bad, and inverse. The two will always overshadow each other because they cannot exist without each other. It applies to whether the law is just or unjust, because the law is always evolving with. It is evolving and adapting to the current time we are in because it was pushed and challenge by citizen in quest of trying to achieve relevance. Sometimes the law changes because of the protest from the citizens as it is being applied to them. Which leads to a consideration of the “justness” of civil disobedience as it forces people to pay attention force change to the laws.

The additional considerations are very broad and include a large variety. In many circumstances, and depending on the situation of each individual case, what the court believes to be relevant will also be taken into account. Some main ones include:

Within county courts there are four court systems which include constitutional, statutory, criminal and civil, and probate. Because these cases are civil, the court usually deals with a lot of paper work to get the job done. The constitutional court

Louisiana is the world’s prison capital. In a news report by The Times-Picayune, reporter Cindy Chang reported “The state imprisons more of its people, per head than any of its U.S. counterparts. Louisiana's incarceration rate is nearly five times Iran's, 13 times China's and 20 times Germany's.” She then goes on to talk about the black men of Louisiana stating “Among black men from New Orleans, one in 14 is behind bars; one in seven is either in prison, on parole or on probation”. These numbers are shocking. There has to be a reason why there is a much higher rate of African American men that are imprisoned, surely they are not the only ones committing crimes.

However, not all cases receive the luxury we call justice. Many cases have been turned over and neglected, leaving individuals who patiently await their trial date deprived of justice. Injustice in the judicial system has been an apparent problem for decades. Every case has to be viewed in an unbiased perspective with a sufficient amount of evidence. If these conditions are not met, the possibility for injustice increases drastically.

Comes Plaintiff, Constance Wolf F/K/A Constance Wolfgram, by counsel, and for her complaint states as follows:

The United States court system is the institution were all the legal disputes in the american society are carryed out and resolved. However, one single court is not enough to resolve every single dispute in society and that is why the court system is made up of two different courts, the federal courts and the state courts. Moreover, the federal and state courts are made up of several divisions made to handle legal disputes differently depending on its seriousness. For example, the state court is made up of trial courts of limited jurisdiction and probate courts were cases and disputes originate and then move up to trial courts of general jurisdiction, intermediate apellate courts, and courts of last resort respectively depending on the case.In contrast, the federal court consists of district courts, territorial coutrs, tax court, court of international trade, claims court, court of veterans appeals, an courts of military review which then move on to courts of appeals respectively and may ultimately end up in the United States supreme court. In addition, cases from state court may also appeal into the federal court system but not the other way around.

The three tiers of the American Federal Court System consist of Trial Courts, the Appellate Courts, and the U.S. Supreme Court. The Trial Courts tier is made up of 94 Federal Judicial Courts, U.S. Bankruptcy Courts, Court of Federal Claims, and the Court of International Trade. The majority of cases involving federal law or code violations will be heard in a trial court first as they have jurisdiction over most of the federal cases. This includes cases involving drug trafficking, habeas corpus, identity theft, RICO, misdemeanors on federal property, hate crimes, computer fraud, and credit card fraud. Non-criminal cases involving debt repayment and other issues with the parties are heard by the bankruptcy courts. Cases involving customs issues or international trade are handled by The Court of International Trade. Cases involving eminent domain by the federal government, federal contracts, or claims against the U.S. that involve money are heard by the U.S. Court of Federal Claims (Hogan, 2010).

“I treat my clients the way I would want to be treated; with respect and by someone who gives straightforward, honest answers. No relationship can work without trust, whether it’s marriage, family, or business. An attorney-client relationship is no different.” This quote by Sarah Swain, is the perfect representation of the sacred relationship that an attorney has with his client in the United States justice system. In order for the justice system to work efficient, a client must be able to trust his enough his attorney to tell him everything about the facts of the case so that the justice can be served. The first section of the American Bar Association (“ABA”) Model Rules of Professional Conduct also sets forth rules for the attorney-client relationship in great detail. The communication between an attorney and client is also privileged and the attorney is to take reasonable steps to prevent inadvertent or unauthorized disclosure of, or unauthorized access to, information relating to the representation of a client as per Rule 1.6 on the ABA’s Model Rules of Professional Conduct.

Civil cases are when citizens are suspected of committing a crime, while criminal cases are when people with a criminal background are suspected of committing a crime. In a criminal case prosecutors look for undeniable proof in order to easily jail criminals. In civil courts, the goal of a lawyer is to find as much evidence as possible in favor of their position. People in civil courts are not necessarily criminals. They just want to win some money from the court case. There are no prosecutors or government lawyers in a civil court because people are just suing each other. There is a jury in criminal courts to decide whether or not the suspect is guilty or innocent.

In his report Lord Jackson stated, “The legal aid system plays a crucial role in promoting access to justice at proportionate costs in key areas”. Since April 2013 when LASPO became law there has been a reduction in the categories for which civil legal aid is available and a narrowing of the means-test criteria. This means that fewer people qualify for legal

One thing that needs to be changed within the civil justice system is a victims right to a lawyer, especially involving victims of domestic violence that have a low-income. The President of the Legal Services Corporation, James J. Sandman quotes that “Most Americans don’t realize that you can have your home taken away, your children taken away and you can be a victim of domestic violence, but have no constitutional right to a lawyer to protect you” (Voices for Civil Justice, 2013). Civil courts offer food and housing services to victims of domestic violence but many precede the courts alone, which occasionally results to losing. It is mentioned in civil courts, 80 percent are left without a lawyer. Basically, the criminal defendant is entitled

They state that access to justice directs at the impeachments of barriers that confront people living in poverty from utilizing the legal system in the form of three “waves”. The first wave entailed the emergence of legal aid in the developed countries in the period after the Second World War. This wave intended to provide direct legal services to economically disadvantaged persons involved in the justice system. More recently, the United Nations Special Rapporteur on the Independence of Judges and Lawyers (Knaul, A/HRC/23/43, 15 March 2013) state that legal aid seeks to eradicate the barriers which impede access to justice by providing assistance to those who would not otherwise have been able to afford legal representation and access to the court system (Knaul, A/HRC/23/43, 15 March 2013, para. 27). To be more specific, the right to legal aid refers to both a right and an essential guarantee for the effective exercise of other human rights including the right to an effective remedy, the right to equality before the courts and tribunals, the right to counsel and the right to a fair trial (Knaul, A/HRC/23/43, 15 March 2013, para.

People with money have a greater chance to win or get lower sentences compared to poor families.
