Book excerpt: The Judges and Lawyer's Companion' is a must have and useful tool in the hands of Judges and Lawyers and in deed any one delivering a decision making role formally and informally. This book aims to reduce the valuable time lawyers at the bar and judicial officers on the bench spend looking for the meaning of Latin maxims. Law students seeking quick interpretation and dictionary meaning of Latin maxims will also benefit immensely. I have decided to compile this companion as a reference guide at a glance and I hope this piece of work will find its place on the book shelf of every Judge and Lawyer around the world. The author has carefully illustrated the meaning of each maxim using case authorities wherever possible in court ruling around the world. This book is a linguistic treasure, a robust companion with engaging collection puts revered proverbs at reader's fingertips.
Book Synopsis The Routledge Research Companion to Law and Humanities in Nineteenth-Century America by : Nan Goodman
Download or read book The Routledge Research Companion to Law and Humanities in Nineteenth-Century America written by Nan Goodman and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2017-05-12 with total page 395 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nineteenth-century America witnessed some of the most important and fruitful areas of intersection between the law and humanities, as people began to realize that the law, formerly confined to courts and lawyers, might also find expression in a variety of ostensibly non-legal areas such as painting, poetry, fiction, and sculpture. Bringing together leading researchers from law schools and humanities departments, this Companion touches on regulatory, statutory, and common law in nineteenth-century America and encompasses judges, lawyers, legislators, litigants, and the institutions they inhabited (courts, firms, prisons). It will serve as a reference for specific information on a variety of law- and humanities-related topics as well as a guide to understanding how the two disciplines developed in tandem in the long nineteenth century.
Book Synopsis Leading Cases in Song by : Stephen M. D. Todd
Download or read book Leading Cases in Song written by Stephen M. D. Todd and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Legal disputes can be both comical and bizarre. Indeed the facts of a number of famous law cases almost beg to be set to words and music and celebrated in a comical book. This is just such a book and the reader (or singer) will find inside a large number of leading decisions of the courts (plus a few not quite so leading) presented as songs, with every one set to a different tune taken from the Gilbert and Sullivan operas. They are all based on decisions which in one way or another are entertaining or diverting and/or which raise particularly interesting questions for the law to resolve. Readers will discover entirely new ways of appreciating Donoghue v Stevenson, Carlill v Carbolic Smoke Ball Co, R v Brown and many others.

Book Synopsis The Legal Companion by : Vincent Powell
Download or read book The Legal Companion written by Vincent Powell and published by Robson. This book was released on 2005-03-31 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The law touches everyone and even the average, law-abiding citizen is catered for in this unique book. From Lawmakers to lawbreakers, 'The Legal Companion' offers a view of the oddities, quirks, origins and stories behind the legal world. Starting, quite literally at the Beginning, (as we learn how The Ten Commandments were later revised by God on the second draft) the book ranges from the serious (how fingerprinting began) to the bizarre (why the skeleton of Jeremy Bentham votes at University College London meetings); the informative (why Judges have a notch on top of their wigs) to the completely ridiculous (why priests marked the legal boundary of their parish by hanging children upside down and banging their heads against stone markers), 'The Legal Companion' takes the reader through a legal minefield of notes, quotes, facts and stats. But 'The Legal Companion' doesn’t just contain fascinating snippets of information, it also offers extracts from the finest writing about the law over the centuries and in modern times. Charles Dickens shares a cell with J.G. Ballard, while Herman Melville and Franz Kafka stand in the dock with William Burroughs and Hunter S. Thompson. And like all the other books in the 'Companion' series, there’s a magnificent piece of statistical trivia to match each page number. The market for this book is huge: there are an enormous number of legal professionals working in the UK, over 60,000 solicitors and 10,000 barristers regulated by the Law Society in England and Wales alone. The study of law is increasingly popular with around 10,000 law graduates every year with law taught in 89 universities and 36 other institutions. And while professionals and students will be interested in the mixture of fact and fun that 'The Legal Companion' provides, there is also plenty for the layperson to understand and enjoy... the ratings for crime and legal dramas are among the highest on television and some of Hollywood’s greatest films are based in the courtroom.

Book Synopsis The Elgar Companion to the Extraordinary Chambers in the Courts of Cambodia by : Nina H. B. Jørgensen
Download or read book The Elgar Companion to the Extraordinary Chambers in the Courts of Cambodia written by Nina H. B. Jørgensen and published by . This book was released on 2018-04-27 with total page 432 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Companion is a one-stop reference resource on the Phnom Penh based 'Khmer Rouge tribunal'. It serves as an introduction to the Extraordinary Chambers in the Courts of Cambodia, while also exploring some of the Chambers' practical and jurisprudential challenges and outcomes. Established by an agreement between the United Nations and the Government of Cambodia, the tribunal has been operational since 2006, and seeks a mandate to try those most responsible for serious crimes committed during the Khmer Rouge period from 1975 to 1979. The Companion is organized around a series of themes including legality, structure, proceedings, jurisprudence, legitimacy and legacy, and offers both direct insights and academic analysis by an author who has worked as senior adviser to the tribunal's Pre-Trial and Supreme Court Chambers. This original book will prove a valuable and stimulating read for lawyers, judges and UN staff working within, establishing, or monitoring international courts and tribunals as well as local and international NGOs in Cambodia concerned with accountability for the crimes of the Kymer Rouge era. Academics focusing on international criminal justice will also find this Companion useful to assess the contribution of the Extraordinary Chambers, both during the tribunal's lifespan and after it has closed its doors.
Book Synopsis Judges, Law, & Social Change by : Steve Bachmann
Download or read book Judges, Law, & Social Change written by Steve Bachmann and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2022-10-03 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: JUDGES, LAW, AND SOCIAL CHANGE This book is intended to serve as a companion volume to Lawyers, Law, and Social Change, first published in 2001, followed by a second edition in 2012. The article which generated Lawyers, Law, and Social Change was first written in 1984; it observed that "...the organizing Right has all but cut the legs out from under those who might try to reform anything through the courts. ... The court decisions which progressives have not enjoyed in the recent past are likely to get worse in the near if not extended future." Time seems to have given proof to these observations. This volume turns its focus from lawyers as potential social change actors to the judges who have may have replaced them.
Book Synopsis The Foundations of American Law by : Jefferson Powell
Download or read book The Foundations of American Law written by Jefferson Powell and published by . This book was released on 2024 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The main objective of this text is to introduce the reader to many of the background assumptions about American law and legal argument that inform how lawyers and judges read decisions and other legal documents, and how they think about legal problems. Lawyers presuppose and use these ideas and intellectual tools without discussing them, while law professors (and the materials they assign) often leave it to students to figure out the assumptions for themselves. The book discusses the relationship between logic and historical experience in the construction of the law, the ways pre-Revolutionary English common law shaped American law, and the 19th and early 20th century developments that led to contemporary American law. The reader will also come away with a clear sense of the ways in which lawyers use "lawtalk" (the characteristic ways lawyers imagine, analyze, and address problems) to make sense of events and issues that require legal attention or decision. While there are a number of books that introduce readers to American legal thought, none are as introductory, accessible, or broad-covering as The Foundations of American Law: A Companion to the 1L Year. This book is primarily intended for first year law students, but will also be interesting to people considering law school or those who are simply interested in how lawyers and judges think and make decisions"--

Book Synopsis The Power of Words A Compendium of Great Speeches from World Leaders by : LornaMarie
Download or read book The Power of Words A Compendium of Great Speeches from World Leaders written by LornaMarie and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2018-07-09 with total page 699 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a treasure in the hands of anyone required to use oratory skill in their role. It is known in most countries of the world that lawyers are good orators, perhaps due to the nature of their profession, Barristers are known to address the court. Some of our world leaders past and present are great orators; it is, however, important to note that while not all of them were lawyers, they have delivered remarkable and memorable speeches to their respective nations. One of the qualities of a good leader is the ability to address the nation with good oratory skills. This book therefore explores the power and effect that words have on all of us.
