UTB Simultaneous Interpreting Analysis

In the Criminal Justice system, the main goal is justice or in other words, a fair consequence to match a criminal action. An obvious, yet unmentioned underlying goal is to prevent injustice. Many times, justice prevails, and this is why our system prevails today. However, when justice fails, it is key to look at the information offered in order to better the system and to repay those that have been failed by it. One area that has shown itself as flawed is the area of interrogations though many other areas will be presented throughout this paper as well. By examining five cases involving questionable interrogation and showing other system flaws, I will enlighten others as to how our justice system handles its flaws, and hopefully I will

The court transcript is critically important in the judicial system. It is used for many different reasons, but one of the main reasons a transcript is used is during an appeal. If one believes that the trail was not fair or why the judge of a lower court made a mistake in the ruling, they can make an appeal, and the new judge will go back and review the transcript. In this case, the judge will either decide on an appeal or the case may get a while trial. In Abina and the Important Men’s case, the transcript gave clear consensus of everything that was said within the courtroom. It allows the reader to be able to have a clear view of both sides of the case. Abina’s words were easily heard, and her words were spoken loudly to the ears and hearts of all in the courtroom. Yet, Judge Melton chose to turn is head the other way and ignore the illegal actions of Eddoo, leaving Abina standing there as if nothing was even

* The author will determine courtroom groups, how the groups interact daily, and recommend changes to the groups. The author will also describe prosecutor roles and the cases he pursues.

Knowing ones rights when being arrested is very important, it is the best way to avoid self incrimination. The government has done a good job in assuring that all individuals who are arrested are read their Miranda rights and made fully aware of the rights that they are guaranteed as well as providing fair trial to all who are accused of a crime based on the rule set by the presumption of innocence: “innocent until proven guilty”. The purpose of this paper is to describe how the Miranda rights were

You have the right to remain silent, anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law. You have the right to speak to an attorney, and to have an attorney present during police questioning, if you cannot afford an attorney, one will be appointed to you by the state. These words have preceded every arrest since Miranda v. Arizona 1966, informing every detained person of his rights before any type of formal police questioning begins. This issue has been a hot topic for decades causing arguments over whether or not the Miranda Warnings should or should not continue to be part of police practices, and judicial procedures. In this paper, the author intends to explore many aspects of the Miranda

Whether Mr. Jack Hernandez’s statements made during the interrogation can be used against him in the new murder trial. Hernandez was initially wanted for questioning in the murder of his former roommate in Texas and after being sentenced for a separate crime in Missouri, he was improperly questioned, Mirandized and detained as a result of his excited utterance due to a language barrier. The question is whether the statements taken by Missouri officials and Canadian authorities will be allowed to be used in Hernandez’ Texas trial.

Criminal court challenges open new horizons in blended discussions the diversion of reasonable relation in evidence will provide a barrier between counsels that will agree to exclude, or hinder the absolute outcome during defendant questioning and police testimony. Controlling leading questions will grant a punctual fortitude so, it is important during the argument that all rights will be granted and not foreseen as, controversial by, repetitive testimonial hearsay in order to relate ever avenue and corner exploitation and allow objective questioning to unfold during the officers explanations. Compelling evidence in this case must be found inadmissible, but it is important to carefully question the police so it doesn’t look interrogative, but

“Witness for the Prosecution” superbly demonstrated a realist view of the operating procedures in a courtroom. The actors within the courtroom were easy to identify, and the steps transitioned smoothly from the arrest to the reading of the verdict. The murder trial of Leonard Vole provided realistic insight into how laws on the books are used in courtroom proceedings. With the inferior elements noted, the superior element of the court system in “Witness

Interpreting is deemed as a highly stress-provoking activity (Seleskovitch 1978; Jiménez and Pinazo 2001). It requires an excellent command of the source language and the target language, perfect memory retention, and fast information retrieval from the memory file. These complex linguistic, cognitive and psychomotor operations can easily produce an enormous amount of stress (Chiang,2006).
