After the terrible events of September 11, 2001, Congress enacted HSA. Under this statute, the Department of Homeland Security was established so that a single agency would be responsible for coordinating the efforts of designated government agencies to protect our country from terrorist attacks. This action by Congress also created the United States Citizenship and Immigration Service (USCIS) and the Customs and Border Protection (CBP) agencies. USCIS replaced the Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS), and is responsible for adjudicating visa petitions and related immigration matters. CBP is responsible for border control, which includes such things as detention and expedited removal, and deciding who can enter the country. Click here to know more http://attorneyholcomb.net/

Civil law
Civil law defines and protects private citizen rights through areas like contracts, torts, property, and family law. It originated from ancient Roman laws and codes. Tort law is a branch of civil law dealing with personal injury and property damage from wrongful acts, seeking monetary compensation. There are three tort categories: negligence, intentional torts, and strict liability. Negligence involves a duty, breach of duty through unreasonable actions, causation of damages. Contract law governs agreements where parties have obligations and can be liable for breach. Property law distinguishes personal and real property, addressing torts like trespass and conversion. Family law handles marriage, divorce, child custody, and other domestic issues.
State Jurisdiction under International Criminal Law
A basic discussion on State Jurisdiction under International Criminal Law. The main focus of this lecture is to pinpoint the criminal jurisdiction of a state where a foreign element is connected and the crime is international by nature.
State jurisdiction under PUBLIC INTERNATIONAL LAW
This document discusses principles of state jurisdiction under international law. It addresses topics like preemptive attack, conflicts between nationality and territoriality principles, and universal jurisdiction. Specifically, it explains that state jurisdiction arises from sovereignty and includes the power to prescribe rules/laws and enforce them. Jurisdiction is based on a state's territory, nationality of the offender/victim, or protective/universal principles. Universal jurisdiction allows any state to try certain grave international crimes like war crimes and crimes against humanity. Examples discussed include an Israeli case trying a German national for crimes against humanity.
IMMIGRATION AND THE JUSTICE SYSTEM
The document discusses problems with the U.S. immigration system and judicial process. It notes that detained immigrants without representation have a 97% chance of losing their case and being deported. Immigrants can also be detained for months or years while waiting for their trial. The process is further complicated by transfers to distant locations far from family and lawyers. The document proposes solutions like providing legal representation for immigrants and categorizing immigrants differently, such as "legitimate" and "at-will" classifications. Overall it argues the current system needs reform to prevent long detentions and better protect immigrants' rights.

Due process of law
The document discusses due process of law in the Philippines. It defines due process as requiring a fair legal process where individuals are not deprived of life, liberty, or property without fair procedures. Due process includes substantive due process, which examines the validity and objectives of laws, and procedural due process, which requires a fair hearing before judgment. The key elements of due process are a fair administration of justice, protection of parties' rights, efficiency, and effectiveness. For due process to be followed, courts must be impartial, have proper jurisdiction, allow defendants an opportunity to be heard, and only render judgment after a lawful hearing.

Private International Law and Crucial Role of Personal Connecting Factors
This document discusses personal connecting factors in private international law. It covers domicile, nationality, and residence as connecting factors.
Domicile is the primary connecting factor and includes domicile of origin, choice, and dependent persons. Domicile of origin is determined by a parent's domicile at birth. Domicile of choice requires both residence and intent to remain permanently. A dependent person takes the domicile of the person they depend on. Nationality denotes a person's political status and country of allegiance. While easier to determine than domicile, nationality poses issues for stateless persons. Residence is where a person lives but is not usually a connecting factor on its own.

Jurisdiction active and passive personality, protective principle and
The document discusses different principles of jurisdiction that states can exercise, including territoriality, nationality (active and passive personality), protective principle, and universal jurisdiction. It provides examples of how different states have applied these principles in national courts. The principles evolved to address transnational crimes and situations where territoriality alone was insufficient. Universal jurisdiction in particular remains an evolving principle that requires state consent through treaties or custom to apply to specific offenses.
