The document analyzes whether Russia's anti-gay propaganda law violates international human rights law. It begins with an overview of the law passed in 2013 banning the promotion of non-traditional sexual relations to minors. This has led to increased violence against the queer community in Russia. The document then reviews literature arguing the law violates rights to freedom of expression and assembly protected by treaties Russia has ratified. It also discusses cases where the European Court of Human Rights and UN Human Rights Committee found Russia in violation of protecting LGBT individuals from discrimination based on sexual orientation. The conclusion is that based on international legal precedent and treaty obligations, Russia's law and its effects likely constitute human rights abuses against the queer community under international law.

The document discusses plea bargaining in the criminal justice systems of the United States and Canada. It notes that plea bargaining has become the dominant way of resolving criminal cases, with over 90% being settled via a guilty or no contest plea. This allows the court system to function given the large volume of cases, as it would not have the capacity for a full trial in most situations. However, plea bargaining also benefits the accused by allowing them to receive a reduced charge or sentence in exchange for pleading guilty or cooperating with prosecutors.

Study: Millions of Americans Go To Court Without a LawyerMark_Carnell
Countless movies and TV shows include a scene where a police officer arrests an alleged criminal and reads them the Miranda warning. Actors playing the role of police officers say, “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 an attorney. If you cannot afford an attorney, one will be appointed.”

Ca n Artificia l Intelligence And Online Dispute Resolution Enha nce Efficiency And
Effectiveness In Courts
By John Zeleznikow1
Abstract:
The growing rise in the number of self-represented litigants has negative implications for both the court system and
access to justice. The expanding use of Artificial Intelligence and the World Wide Web has led to the development
and use of Online Dispute Resolution. In this article, we investigate a number of systems in Australian Family Law
that enhance Alternative Dispute Resolution and Access to Justice. We discuss how a hybrid system that
incorporates advice about Best Alternatives to Negotiated Agreements (BATNAs) and potential trade-offs as well as
allowing online communication can enhance access to justice.
Keywords: Self-Represented Litigants, Access to Justice, Online Dispute Resolution, Artificial Intelligence
1. Introduction
The growing rise in the number of litigants who represent themselves in court has undesirable consequences for the
administration of justice (Zeleznikow 2002). As early as 1999, a study conducted for the American Bar Association in the
Supreme Court of Maricopa County, Arizona, USA indicated that at least one of the parties were self-represented in over
88% of domestic relations cases and both parties were self-represented in 52% of the cases. Meachem (1999) reports
that 24,416 of the 54,693 cases opened in the US Court of Appeals in 1999 were filed by pro se appellants 2. Many pro se
appellants have neither the financial resources nor the legal skills to conduct their own appeals. Quatrevaux (1996) notes
that there is a shortfall in legal systems for poor persons residing in the United States.
In Washington State, for example, a 2003 study found that more than three-quarters of all low-income households
experience at least one civil (not criminal) legal problem each year. In the aggregate, low-income people experience more
than one million important civil legal problems annually; low-income people face more than 85% of their legal problems
without help from an attorney. The United States Courts are overwhelmed with a flood of Self Represented litigants, who
represent as much as eighty percent of the caseloads in certain jurisdictions, and millions of others who don't get to court
at all (Almeida 2013).
Branting (2001) claims that domestic abuse victims are particularly likely to have few resources and little opportunity to
obtain the services of a lawyer. He states that the growth of the consumer movement has increased the trend for pro se
litigation. The growing availability of books, document kits and computerized forms—together with the increasing
availability of legal materials on the World Wide Web—has increased the opportunities ...
The document announces the 3rd Institute for African Transitional Justice to be held in Uganda from March 17-23, 2013. The institute will examine approaches to transitional justice in Africa, including prosecuting international crimes versus implementing broader programs to address victims' expectations of justice through mechanisms like reparations and truth-telling. It seeks applicants from universities, NGOs, and international organizations working on African transitional justice issues. Participants will engage with experts on balancing prosecution with healing communities, and will publish perspectives in a book. The application deadline is February 10, 2013 and fees range from $1050-1300, with scholarships available.
This document provides resources for teaching the NSW HSC Legal Studies course. It begins by introducing the author Dave Gooley and his legal studies teaching experience. It then summarizes the key topics covered in the Preliminary and HSC Legal Studies courses, including the legal system, individual and law, law in practice, and crime. For each topic, it lists relevant questions students should consider and provides examples of case studies, media reports, websites and other materials that could be used to teach the topics. Overall, the document aims to equip Legal Studies teachers with up-to-date, real-world resources to enhance student learning.

This document discusses the causes and negative effects of smartphone addiction among teens and college students. Researchers have studied the factors that can lead to problematic smartphone use and smartphone addiction. Students now spend much of their smartphone time on social media, and whether social media is beneficial for students is highly debated. While smartphones provide new ways to communicate, excessive smartphone and social media use can have negative impacts on students.
The document discusses the challenges of navigating civil and criminal justice systems for victims of domestic abuse. It notes that the criminal system relies on police investigation and prosecution of offenses, while the civil system offers non-molestation and occupation orders to protect victims. However, the disconnect between these systems means information is not shared and victims must navigate aging, separate systems that were not designed to work together holistically to prioritize victim safety. The report calls for dismantling barriers to better information sharing across systems in order to more effectively protect victims and manage perpetrators.

4th Amendment
The 4th amendment states: “The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized” (1).
The 4th Amendment protects people against unreasonable search and seizure of their person, property, and belongings. It also includes warrants. For example, it sets requirements for issuing warrants. A judge or magistrate must issue warrants, and they must be backed up by facts and supported under oath.
A government with extreme overreach would be difficult to live under. Therefore, the founding fathers included the 4th Amendment, which protects citizens from unreasonable and searches both warranted and warrantless.
Law Enforcement—Preliminary Investigation
As an example, police detectives have taken statements from an informant under oath pertaining to the whereabouts of a robbery suspect. The officers believe evidence exists at a certain location based on the informant’s statements and eyewitness testimony. They go to the court seeking a search warrant for that specific location and state their evidence to the judge. The judge then decides based on the facts.
The United States Supreme Court issued a 6-3 decision in 2015 in
Rodriguez v. United States. The Court held that Nebraska police violated Rodriguez’s 4th amendment rights when they extended an otherwise lawful traffic stop in order to let a drug-sniffing dog investigate the outside of the vehicle (2).

This document provides an overview of the differences between the U.S. and Italian criminal justice systems, specifically examining how they differ in their examination of justice, court structure, and use of evidence for conviction. The Italian system is inquisitorial, meaning the judge and prosecutor work together to investigate cases, while the U.S. system is adversarial. The Italian court has three judges and six lay assessors, while the U.S. focuses on proving innocence or guilt.

The document discusses the concept of a culture of honor and provides examples of environments where this culture can commonly be seen. A culture of honor establishes how people handle conflicts and disputes without interference from legal authorities. Key environments mentioned include inner cities, frontier lands, southern United States, and conflict zones, as people in these areas may not trust or have access to authority. The document suggests that in a culture of honor, people avoid intentionally offending others and maintain a reputation of not accepting improper conduct.
The document discusses how Mark Twain portrayed slaves in his works. It argues that Twain failed to show sympathy for slaves or accurately portray black people. He used stereotypes and fetishization rather than developing complex characters. While Twain wrote important stories, questions remain about whether he truly understood the African American experience or subtly expressed racist views in his writing.

The experiment will measure the amount of oxygen gas produced to calculate the rate of the enzyme-catalyzed reaction. Enzymes act as biochemical catalysts by lowering the activation energy of reactions, allowing cells to carry out complex chemical processes at low temperatures. The substrate interacts reversibly with the active site of the enzyme, temporarily reducing the activation energy and allowing products to form.

This document provides instructions for a lab experiment investigating the conversion of hydrogen peroxide to water and oxygen gas through enzyme catalysis. The experiment will measure the amount of oxygen gas produced to calculate the rate of the enzyme-catalyzed reaction. Enzymes act as biochemical catalysts by lowering the activation energy of reactions, allowing cells to carry out complex chemical processes at low temperatures. The substrate interacts reversibly with the active site of the enzyme, temporarily reducing the activation energy and allowing products to form.

Lifting the Corporate Veil. Power Point Presentationseri bangash
"Lifting the Corporate Veil" is a legal concept that refers to the judicial act of disregarding the separate legal personality of a corporation or limited liability company (LLC). Normally, a corporation is considered a legal entity separate from its shareholders or members, meaning that the personal assets of shareholders or members are protected from the liabilities of the corporation. However, there are certain situations where courts may decide to "pierce" or "lift" the corporate veil, holding shareholders or members personally liable for the debts or actions of the corporation.
Here are some common scenarios in which courts might lift the corporate veil:
Fraud or Illegality: If shareholders or members use the corporate structure to perpetrate fraud, evade legal obligations, or engage in illegal activities, courts may disregard the corporate entity and hold those individuals personally liable.
Undercapitalization: If a corporation is formed with insufficient capital to conduct its intended business and meet its foreseeable liabilities, and this lack of capitalization results in harm to creditors or other parties, courts may lift the corporate veil to hold shareholders or members liable.
Failure to Observe Corporate Formalities: Corporations and LLCs are required to observe certain formalities, such as holding regular meetings, maintaining separate financial records, and avoiding commingling of personal and corporate assets. If these formalities are not observed and the corporate structure is used as a mere façade, courts may disregard the corporate entity.
Alter Ego: If there is such a unity of interest and ownership between the corporation and its shareholders or members that the separate personalities of the corporation and the individuals no longer exist, courts may treat the corporation as the alter ego of its owners and hold them personally liable.
Group Enterprises: In some cases, where multiple corporations are closely related or form part of a single economic unit, courts may pierce the corporate veil to achieve equity, particularly if one corporation's actions harm creditors or other stakeholders and the corporate structure is being used to shield culpable parties from liability.

EMPIRICAL BACKGROUND
United States of America
Þ According to the Self-Represented Litigation Network1, 1 out of
10 Americans is a self-represented litigant (hereinafter – “SRL”)
each year in a newly filed case, and 3 out of 5 people in a civil case
represent themselves in court.
Þ According to the American Bar Association 2 , there are
currently 1,338,678 licensed, active attorneys in the U.S., i.e. about
1 attorney for every 300 people.
Þ According to the National Center’s for Access to Justice at
Fordham Law School Justice Index findings3, there is less than one
civil legal aid attorney to help every 10,000 Americans living in
poverty. No state fully meets the legal needs of its poor residents.

Canada
¨ According to the National Self-Represented Litigants Project4
, at
least half the people in family courts across the country arrive
without lawyers. In Toronto, the figure is closer to 80%. Appeals
courts are reporting around 30% SRLs, and in civil courts the figure
is between 30 and 40%.
Australia
• In 2016-20175
, the Australian High Court reports rate of 42 per cent (compared
with 46 per cent in 2015-20166
) of SRLs who filed a special leave applications.
• 76 per cent of the immigration applications filed in 2015-20167
were filed by SRLs.

Homo Ludens era?
«That an affinity may exist between
law and play becomes obvious to us as
soon as we realize how much the
actual practice of the law, in other
words a lawsuit, properly resembles a
contest whatever the ideal
foundations of the law may be.
…
«The judicial contest is always subject
to a system of restrictive rules which,
quite apart from the limitations of
time and place, set the lawsuit firmly
and squarely in the domain of orderly,
antithetical play. The active
association of law and play,
particularly in archaic culture, can be
seen from three points of view. The
lawsuit can be regarded as a game of
chance, a contest, or a verbal battle.»
