The case between Ms. Darcy Vs Big Car Company, I would have to agree 100% with what the Jugde decided to do. Based on the facts that were present, I would have ruled that this move onto trial in front of Jury of our peers as well. While Ms. Darcy was under the direct supervision of Clarence he was rude and forth coming with is attitude towards Ms. Darcy which was presented in lewd and harassing manner. With the many attempts that Ms. Darcy had towards Clarence he would continue to gesture and run into her in very threatening manner and making an hostile work environment for Ms. Darcy.…
Smiley, a buyer from Carrefour Fashions, entered the store of a rival firm, Boulevard Boutique. The reason for his visit was to find out about the latest lines that Boulevard was carrying.

Once the police took Smiley to the station he explained the situation and was released.…

Firstly, Alejandro’s team members did not view him as an authentic leader. They had no respect for or confidence in him probably because they sensed his self doubt so they disregarded his plan and did not pay attention. Secondly, Dan answered his phone and left for his weekly tennis game which everyone seemed to know about except Alejandro. As soon as the other team members saw that Dan wasn’t interested enough to participate in the meeting, they also lost all interest and followed through with the disrespect because they viewed Alejandro’s plan as just another idea so they began to come up with a plan of their own. Alejandro’s first mistake was that he had no confidence in himself. For example, when Dan initially assigns him with the task, he began to doubt himself and questions the reasons why Dan chose him rather than the “old hands” with more experience. This shows that he wasn’t aware of his strengths and weaknesses so he was unable to present his plan effectively and confidently. Additionally, Alejandro failed to get the other managers involved in his plan to help motivate the other team members.…

Judge Manning’s demeanor towards the defendant was a bit shocking when looking at the crimes the defendant committed. At times the defendant began to cry or get sad, and the judge seem to show sympathy for him. He would ask him if he needed a break from standing or just to take a moment to himself. He showed concern for the defendant. When Judge Manning began reading each indictment, he made sure to pronounce each victims name correctly by asking the prosecutors did he pronounce them correctly, every time he had a hard time pronouncing foreign names. Judge Manning also out of kept informing the defendant that this would take a while and asked him to be patient several times. I’m not exactly sure if gender played a role in this case, though…

The excerpt saying "Homes that made Baba's house in Wazir Akbar Khan look like a servant's hut.

As we walked into the jury room, after hearing the case of Commonwealth v. Miller, I had already decided how I would vote and, honestly, I determined I was not going to be swayed. We swiftly chose a foreman by appointing the one, who had been given the jury instructions, to that position. Next, we read the jury instructions out loud, in order to remember and understand the definition of each charge. Debate over the meaning of the instructions ensued for a short amount of time before we dove into determining guilt or innocence. Everyone was given a chance to discuss the case and, personally, I felt comfortable entering the discussion and debating the case. After discussion, we voted and were evenly split among guilty or not guilty. Next, we…
This leads us back to the analysis of whether or not to Hart’s confessions should be admissible, there are similar reasoning, but slightly varying answers amongst the Justices. It was agreed that the confession Hart made at the scene of the crime and to Mr. Big should be inadmissible. Yet, in regards to the confession made to the undercover officer, there were differing opinions. The two prominent ones being that after considering a prong by prong analysis of the confessions based on the probative verses prejudicial value that that confession should be determined at a new trial. Or that the confession should be dismissed based on the implied social and financial inducement. I completely agree with those who wanted to dismiss Hart’s confessions to Mr. Big and the confession he made at the scene of the crime. Based on the prejudicial influence…
The rules of criminal procedure are highly significant to the defendants because they are designed to guarantee the constitutional rights and freedoms to those individuals charged with an offence. They serve to truly protect the victims, and ensure the guilty are brought to justice. In criminal trials, individuals in the jury wielded real power in the trial since they settle the fate of their fellow citizens by determining the defense is whether they are guilty of some of the most horrendous crimes. Being a member of the jury, my predominant responsibility in the mock trial was listening to the evidence presented by the Crown and the defense carefully. The jury was expected to examine all the evidence deliberately and make judgement without any bias. In order to make the discussion about the trial confidential, the jury were adjourned to the outside of the room to make a decision. An unanimous was made by the jury in order for a verdict to be reached. In this mock trial, the jury decided that Latimer shall be given a sentence of seven years. This decision made by the jury reflects the values and standards of the general public that Latimer do not deserve a more severe sentence. By bringing ordinary citizens into the court and placing them at the very heart of the decision-making process, trial by jury has become the most democratic part of the legal system. Furthermore, I experienced that the court uses witness testimony in an attempt to convince the jury beyond a reasonable doubt that the defendant committed the offense. During cross-examination, the Crown and the defense asked questions trying to detect falsehood of the testimony or to destroy the credibility of the opponent’s witnesses. By asking questions connected to the witnesses’ characters, the defense…
While often mistaken, it is not the responsibility of the Grand Jury to decide a guilt verdict. Their initiative is to ensure that due process is carried out and that the premise of probable cause is not dismissed for some of the more serious offenses. Although highly controlled by the prosecution, the Grand Jury is not to be tampered with or manipulated by the prosecution. Any attempt by the prosecutor to manipulate or malfeasance in the judicial system should be reported by the Grand Jury (Johnston, 1974, p. 160). It is this manipulation of this asset that can turn the Grand Jury into a (tool) for the prosecution instead of a patriot for justice.…
