Book Synopsis The Reality of Non-Adversarial Justice by : Judy Gutman
Download or read book The Reality of Non-Adversarial Justice written by Judy Gutman and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The growth, development and institutionalisation of alternative dispute resolution (ADR) processes in Australia have paved the way for a changing legal culture. Whilst the adversarial process underpins the Australian legal system, the theory and practice of ADR has allowed a broadening of attitudes towards conflict resolution. In Victoria, collaborative rather than adversarial approaches to justice have been put into practice in 'problem-solving courts'. This development evidences an institutional shift from adversarial justice towards the greater inclusion of non-adversarial dispute resolution processes. Contemporary best practice lawyering demands recognition and acceptance of this change. Legal educators and regulators must also act on the new reality of lawyering.
Book Synopsis Rebooting Justice by : Benjamin H. Barton
Download or read book Rebooting Justice written by Benjamin H. Barton and published by Encounter Books. This book was released on 2017-08-01 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: America is a nation founded on justice and the rule of law. But our laws are too complex, and legal advice too expensive, for poor and even middle-class Americans to get help and vindicate their rights. Criminal defendants facing jail time may receive an appointed lawyer who is juggling hundreds of cases and immediately urges them to plead guilty. Civil litigants are even worse off; usually, they get no help at all navigating the maze of technical procedures and rules. The same is true of those seeking legal advice, like planning a will or negotiating an employment contract. Rebooting Justice presents a novel response to longstanding problems. The answer is to use technology and procedural innovation to simplify and change the process itself. In the civil and criminal courts where ordinary Americans appear the most, we should streamline complex procedures and assume that parties will not have a lawyer, rather than the other way around. We need a cheaper, simpler, faster justice system to control costs. We cannot untie the Gordian knot by adding more strands of rope; we need to cut it, to simplify it.

Book excerpt: True Crime/Law/Current Affairs/Political Science and Government Provocation Sparkman use thought-provoking cases to illustrate the failures of a trial system we revere only because we have been told it is the best in the world — a system we have been too arrogant to question. Charley “I won’t leave any witnesses next time.” Charley stated after being sentenced to ten years for the rape of three women. He subsequently pulled just over two years. Dwayne I asked Dwayne when he would stop committing crimes. He smiled his warm smile and replied. “When I’m dead.” Myth America has the greatest and fairest legal system conceived by the mind of man. Truth America has a trial system that cannot control crime and has legal services that are too complex and too expensive. More Truth We have a large legal profession — criminal defense lawyers — who labor to return drunk drivers to our streets, burglars to our homes, and child molesters to our neighborhoods. Revelation It works! We have the highest crime rate in the world with no apparent remedy other than surrendering our rights and building a police state. Solution Scrap our trial system and build a new one, effecting the most fundamental change in American government since 1789. Read Failed Justice, then send it to our leaders.

Book Synopsis Beyond the Adversarial System by : Helen Stacy
Download or read book Beyond the Adversarial System written by Helen Stacy and published by Federation Press. This book was released on 1999 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Australia is presently seeking to streamline its civil justice system. It is popular folklore that the Australian civil justice system is inaccessible to 'ordinary people' as it is expensive, slow and complex. The reasons for these alleged failings are attributed to various causes, such as arcane and inefficient judicial practices, money-hungry lawyers or, more fundamentally, to the very underpinnings of civil litigation - adversarialism. This volume confronts this folklore. It provides perspectives about civil justice from its major user and funding source (government) and the group of Australians who have used it the least and feel most alienated from the system (indigenous Australians). It explores the insights of those who work with adversarialism day in and day out (judges and lawyers) and reveals both defenders and strident advocates for change. Finally, it steps back and gives an outsider's view of Australian adversarialism from those with knowledge of a sister system in the United States.

Book Synopsis Ethics for Adversaries by : Arthur Isak Applbaum
Download or read book Ethics for Adversaries written by Arthur Isak Applbaum and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2000-07-10 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The adversary professions--law, business, and government, among others--typically claim a moral permission to violate persons in ways that, if not for the professional role, would be morally wrong. Lawyers advance bad ends and deceive, business managers exploit and despoil, public officials enforce unjust laws, and doctors keep confidences that, if disclosed, would prevent harm. Ethics for Adversaries is a philosophical inquiry into arguments that are offered to defend seemingly wrongful actions performed by those who occupy what Montaigne called "necessary offices." Applbaum begins by examining the career of Charles-Henri Sanson, who is appointed executioner of Paris by Louis XVI and serves the punitive needs of the ancien régime for decades. Come the French Revolution, the King's Executioner becomes the king's executioner, and he ministers with professional detachment to each defeated political faction throughout the Terror and its aftermath. By exploring one extraordinary role and the arguments that can be offered in its defense, Applbaum raises unsettling doubts about arguments in defense of less sanguinary professions and their practices. To justify harmful acts, adversaries appeal to arguments about the rules of the game, fair play, consent, the social construction of actions and actors, good outcomes in equilibrium, and the legitimate authority of institutions. Applbaum concludes that these arguments are weaker than supposed and do not morally justify much of the violation that professionals and public officials inflict. Institutions and the roles they create ordinarily cannot mint moral permissions to do what otherwise would be morally prohibited.

Book Synopsis Victims' Rights, Human Rights and Criminal Justice by : Jonathan Doak
Download or read book Victims' Rights, Human Rights and Criminal Justice written by Jonathan Doak and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2008-04-29 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent times, the idea of 'victims' rights' has come to feature prominently in political, criminological and legal discourse, as well as being subject to regular media comment. The concept nevertheless remains inherently elusive, and there is still considerable ambiguity as to the origin and substance of such rights. This monograph deconstructs the nature and scope of the rights of victims of crime against the backdrop of an emerging international consensus on how victims ought to be treated and the role they ought to play. The essence of such rights is ascertained not only by surveying the plethora of international standards which deal specifically with crime victims, but also by considering the potential cross-applicability of standards relating to victims of abuse of power, with whom they have much in common. In this book Jonathan Doak considers the parameters of a number of key rights which international standards suggest victims ought to be entitled to. He then proceeds to ask whether victims are able to rely upon such rights within a domestic criminal justice system characterised by structures, processes and values which are inherently exclusionary, adversarial and punitive in nature.
