The document provides an overview of the Philippine criminal justice system. It discusses the key stages and institutions involved, including:
1) Law enforcement agencies like the police that conduct investigations of reported crimes.
2) Prosecutors that evaluate evidence from police investigations and file criminal charges in court.
3) Courts that oversee legal proceedings, determine guilt or innocence, and sentence those convicted.
4) Correctional institutions that incarcerate and aim to rehabilitate those sentenced.
5) The role of communities in preventing crime and cooperating with law enforcement.
The criminal justice process aims to both punish wrongdoers and promote deterrence, retribution and behavioral change.
It was so important and prudent to include a right to reasonable bail in the Bill of Rights because bail is inherently intertwined with a defendant's right to innocence until proven guilty. A person should have the right to be released on bail while preparing for their trial.

CANADA'S SYSTEM OF JUSTICE
Introduction
The Canadian justice system is made up of many people who perform different roles. The court system includes a number of courts and a variety of levels in the court system. As part of their duties, police officers can use force if necessary, make arrests, and search people, houses and vehicles.
The Canadian court system consists of a number of courts and a variety of levels in the court system.
The Canadian court system consists of a number of courts and a variety of levels in the court system. There are three different types of trials: criminal, civil and administrative.
Criminal Trials – these take place in the Superior Court or Federal Court. They involve crimes such as murder, theft and frauds against society (such as embezzlement). In these cases, you may be tried by a judge alone or with two other judges who will hear your case together. You can also appeal if you feel your sentence was unfairly severe or not given enough consideration to your circumstances by an examining magistrate when he/she made his decision on whether to send someone for trial before another judge sitting alone (the jury system).
Civil Trials – these take place in Provincial Courts across Canada where parties must prove their claims against each other through evidence presented during trial proceedings conducted by either juries composed solely from laypersons selected at random from among citizens living within its borders during regular business hours (usually between 9 am -12 noon) once per month during September through June every year without fail since 1888 when British Columbia became part of Confederation."
All rights and freedoms in Canada's Charter of Rights and Freedoms apply to everyone charged with a crime under the Criminal Code.
The Charter of Rights and Freedoms is a document that outlines basic rights and freedoms in Canada. It applies to everyone charged with a crime under the Criminal Code, regardless of whether they are Canadian citizens or not.
All rights and freedoms in Canada's Charter of Rights and Freedoms apply to everyone charged with a crime under the Criminal Code. This means that if you're arrested for any offence, including possession, trafficking or simple possession (or any other criminal offence), then your constitutional protections will apply until proven otherwise by evidence at trial—even if it's later found that your alleged offence did not actually happen!
As a part of their duties, police officers can use force if necessary, make arrests, and search people, houses and vehicles.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

3. An overview of the Philippine
Criminal Justice system
The Philippines, like any other country
that function under a system of a
democratic society, operates its criminal
justice system apparatus whereby society
identifies, investigates, accuses, tries
convicts, punishes, and rehabilitation
criminal offenders. Hence, the Philippines
Criminal Justice System may be viewed in
three (3) challenging perspectives, such
as the following:
4. First
It assert the idea of deterrence, the notion that the
threat of sanctions can prevent crimes by creating a fear
of punishment for those who might break the law;
Second
It adheres on the principles of the retribution, the
idea that criminal offenders deserve to suffer for the
harm they have done, and their punishment should be
proportionate to the harm inflicted; and
Third
It support on the notion of behavioral change, which
proposes that criminal sanctions should aim to reform
convicted criminal offenders so that they will stay away
from crime in the future.

Justice is to view it as a process that takes
criminal offender through a series of the decision
points beginning with the arrest and concluding
with the reentry into society. A comprehensive
view of formal Criminal Justice process would
normally start with the interactions of the criminal
justice components as it is shown on the

b. Taking of photographs surreptitiously or
otherwise
13. c. Interview of persons with personal
knowledge of facts
d. Entrapment suspects ( with consent of the
court) when feasible
e. Search of premises or persons and

generally vested in the department of justice
(Administrative code of 1987) under the
direction, supervision and control of the
secretary of justice where the interest of the
government is in issue. The prosecution service

OFFICE (PAO)
THE DEFENDER
The 1987 Philippine Constitution state
in part, “in all criminal prosecution, the accused
shall enjoy the rights to have assistance of
counsel.” Everyone rich or poor, is entitled to be
defended by a Public Defense attorney when
charges are brought against him or her, that is, if
the individual cannot afford to pay or hire a
private defense counsel, the states must provide
one free of charge.
22. As soon as a person is arrested he or she
needs a defense attorney. If such a need does
not immediately come to mind, the police
routinely remind the suspect that, “you have the
right to Attorney.” And, the role of the defense
attorney begins almost as soon as the arrest
occurs, for the accused needs the assistance of
counsel to make sure that the interrogation and
other pretrial procedures are conducted in a
constitutional manner. The defense counsel may
even conduct his own investigation
independently to assert the defense of the
accused.

final orders. It exercise appellate jurisdiction over
cases decided by the Court of Appeals or
Regional Trial Courts. As a rule only question of
law may be raised in appeal to it.
26. Appeals to the Supreme Court are never a
matter of right. The only exception to this rule is
when the penalty of death, reclusion perpetua,
or life imprisonment has been imposed either by
the Regional Trial Court (RTC) or the Court of
Appeals; where the case goes automatically to
the Supreme Court for review, even if the
accused does not appeal. And in any of these
three cases (penalty of death, reclusion
