Today`s #LEGAL term is: #Discovery Have you heard this term on a TV show? t.co/oklfYHj5th . #lawyer#TheMoreYouKnowpic.twitter.com/9S5RpcHrca The definition of « discovery » in law is the exchange of legal information and facts known to a case. Think of discovery as obtaining and disclosing the evidence and position of each party to a case so that all parties involved can decide what their best options are – going to court or negotiating an early resolution. RESPONSE: When a complaint is submitted to a defendant in litigation, the « response » is the written response that relates to each allegation and admits or denies the errors. Parties to a case must participate in the investigation process, which means that they must hand over information and evidence about a claim so that all parties involved can know what awaits them in the trial. WRITTEN DISCOVERY Under the umbrella of « written discovery, » we find, « We are in discovery right now, I hope we get what we need with this statement. » RPBA – CPPR – CPSR – CVPP – RPCX – RPDA – DPRD – RPDE – LDPR – PDP Translation: The investigative process is ongoing and we try to get all the evidence we need when we sit in person and question the defendant under oath. For these reasons, it is very rare during a trial for a lawyer to present surprising evidence, as many television characters seem to do with regularity. There is no answer to this question like « MISCELLANEOUS, SPORTS, GOVERNMENT » all categories for anything that does not fit into another category. It can represent anything from « leftover » items to hard-to-classify items.

Testing can be time-consuming, wasteful of energy and money. Discovery encourages the parties to choose a settlement and end the dispute before trial or before the end of the process. Like showing your cards to your opponent in a poker game, discovery reveals the strengths and weaknesses of each game`s hands. Now that they know the evidence, either party can continue the process or fold their hands depending on what has been revealed. DISCOVERABLE: This is potential evidence – notes, diaries, photos, videos, etc. – these « findable » elements must be made available to the opposing parties in the dispute. « They have to pass this log during the discovery if they emit RPD. » A testimony is an opportunity for a lawyer to ask for whatever is necessary to gather, clarify and « discover » evidence and facts. Knowing the facts, the parties can then decide what to do with the claim.

Plato emphasized the importance of law in his other works. In Krito, a dialogue between Socrates and his friend Krito, Krito offers Socrates a way to escape his imminent execution. Socrates refuses, stating that if a citizen chooses to live in a state, he « has entered into a tacit contract that he will make. [The laws] require it. In Plato`s Laws, his last book, he sums up his attitude towards the rule of law: the arbitrary power of an individual. Does not answer to anyone who governs. for his own benefit, not that of his subjects and therefore against their will. The rule of law is the principle that no one is exempt from the law, including those in positions of power. The rule of law can serve as a safeguard against tyranny, as just laws ensure that rulers do not become corrupt.

Plato considered tyranny « the fourth and worst disturbance of a state. » Tyrants do not have « precisely the capacity which is the instrument of judgment » – reason. Tyrannical man is a slave because the best part of him (reason) is enslaved, and likewise the tyrannical state is a slave because it also lacks reason and order. Rub impatiently at the slightest touch of authority and length. they cease to deal themselves with written or unwritten laws; You won`t have anyone on you. Leaders must be « servants of the laws » because « law is order and good law is good order. » Because in democracies where laws don`t come first, demagogues pop up. [T]he kind of democracy. [is] what tyranny is to other forms of monarchy. The spirit of both is the same, and they also wield despotic power over the best citizens. The decrees of the [demagogues] correspond to the edicts of the tyrant. Such a democracy is quite open to the objection that it is not a constitution at all; For where laws have no authority, there is no constitution.

The law must take precedence over everything. Aristotle believed that tyranny is « the exact opposite of a constitution. » He explained that the founders of our nation, like Plato and Aristotle, were worried about tyrannical government. Recognizing that tyranny can emanate from a single powerful ruler or from the « rule of the mob, » the founders enshrined mechanisms in the constitution to prevent tyranny and promote the rule of law. They divided governmental power into three equal branches of government: the executive branch (the president), the legislative branch (the Congress), and the judiciary (the Supreme Court). Each branch can control the other to prevent corruption or tyranny. Congress itself is divided between the House of Representatives and the Senate. The House of Representatives, which is elected for two years, is more influenced by the passions of the people than the Senate, which is elected for a six-year term. The Constitution further limits the powers of the government by listing its powers: the government cannot exercise any powers beyond those enumerated. The first 10 constitutional amendments, the Bill of Rights, protect people`s freedoms from government interference. In creating the judiciary, the authors sentenced federal judges to life imprisonment, ensuring that judges would base their decisions on law rather than politics.

Notes: This quote was not found in Thomas Jefferson`s papers. It has been suggested that this is a paraphrase of Jefferson`s statement in the Declaration of Independence: Whenever any form of government destroys these goals, it is the right of the people to change or abolish them and install a new government. « , although such a paraphrase seems to remove some radical liberties with the original version. The quote is much more similar to Martin Luther King Jr.`s comment in his famous letter from Birmingham Prison: « One has not only a legal but also a moral responsibility to obey just laws. Conversely, one has a moral responsibility to disobey unjust laws. [1] People always have a champion whom they place above themselves and cultivate to greatness. This, and no other, is the root from which a tyrant springs; When it first appears above ground, it is a protector. As he has a crowd entirely at his disposal, he is not prevented from shedding the blood of his loved ones.

He brings her to justice and murders her. At the same time, it emphasizes the abolition of debt and the division of land. After a while, he is expelled, but despite his enemies, he returns as a full-fledged tyrant. 2. The best laws, even if approved by every citizen of the state, will be of no use if young people are not educated by habit and education in the spirit of the constitution. Aristotle Plato emphasized moderation and warned that « the excessive increase of anything often provokes a reaction in the opposite direction, » so that « excess of freedom, whether in states or individuals, seems to pass only into an excess of slavery. » Governments that take into account the common interest are formed according to strict principles of justice. and are therefore true forms; But those who consider only the interests of rulers are all imperfect and perverse forms, because they are despotic. Both Plato and Aristotle lived in the democratic Greek city-state of Athens. In Athenian democracy, all male citizens were directly involved in the passing of laws and jury trial decisions. The annual elections decided who would hold important government positions. Citizens drew lots to see who would occupy the remaining positions.

Where laws have no authority, there is no constitution. The law must take precedence over everything. Aristotle emphasized that these laws must abide by just principles, so that « true forms of government will necessarily have just laws, and perverted forms of government will have unjust laws. » Nearly 2,400 years ago, the Greek philosophers Plato and Aristotle explored political philosophy. Aristotle concluded that « it is obvious that the form of government is the best in which every person, whoever he may be, can best act and live happily. » Aristotle taught for many years in Athens, which was under the control of Macedonia. Upon the death of Alexander the Great, however, the anti-Macedonians took control of Athens. Aristotle, who has been associated with Macedonia, has been accused of not accepting the gods of Athens, one of the same charges levelled against Socrates. Unlike Socrates, however, Aristotle was not judged. He fled to a house in the countryside and said, as the story goes, that he did not want Athens to « sin twice against philosophy » (his first sin was the execution of Socrates). Aristotle died in exile the following year. two States contained in one, each of which is hostile to the other.

[Plato] makes the guards [warriors] a mere garrison of occupation, while husbands and craftsmen and others are the true citizens. But if this is the case, the complaints, quarrels and all the evils that Socrates claims to exist in other states will also exist among them. He is actually saying that citizens with such a good education will not need many laws. But then he limits his education to the guards. 5. People always have a champion whom they place above them and cultivate to greatness. This, and no other, is the root from which a tyrant springs; When it first appears above ground, it is a protector. to have a crowd entirely at your disposal. Both Plato Plato and Aristotle developed important ideas about government and politics. Two of the many political issues these men wrote about were tyranny and the rule of law. Tyranny occurs when absolute power is granted to a ruler.

In a tyrannical government, the ruler becomes corrupt and uses his power to promote his own interests instead of working for the common good. The truth is that the state in which rulers are most reluctant to govern is always ruled by the best and quietest, and the state in which they are most zealous is the worst. Aristotle said that « the rule of law. is preferable to that of any individual. This is because individuals possess flaws and could tailor government to their own individual interests, whereas the rule of law is objective. [T]he best political community is made up of middle-class citizens, and that these states are likely to be well governed where the middle class is large and, if possible, stronger than the other two classes. Because the addition of the middle class reverses the balance and prevents one of the extremes from being dominant. Indicate what percentage of revenues comes from each federal revenue source. Next, calculate the amount in billions of dollars. Use the information in the table on the previous page to find your answers. 6. What is a republic? Is Plato`s ideal state a republic? Explain.

In addition to law, Aristotle believed that a large middle class would protect against the excesses of oligarchy and democracy: a city of the rich and a city of the poor, living together and always conspiring against each other. [The government] will not be able to wage war because it is necessary either to arm and deploy the crowd and fear it more than the enemy, or, if they do not use them, to find themselves on the battlefield. And to this must be added their reluctance to contribute money, because they are money lovers. 1. What is the rule of law? How can it help prevent tyranny? In this activity, students examine and discuss political quotes from Plato and Aristotle. Divide the class into small groups. Assign one of the offers to each group. Each group should: In fact, one of Aristotle`s true forms of government is a political entity, a combination of oligarchy and democracy. This type of state occurs when the middle class is strong. Plato was a pupil of Socrates. Socrates taught by asking questions about a topic and getting his students to think critically about it.

Today, this is called the Socratic method used by many professors in law schools. Philosopher kings will prefer to seek truth rather than rule, but a law will compel them to rule. They will obey the law and alternate as leaders. Unlike The Republic, Politics is not an ideal system of government.

According to a librarian at Brigham Young University in Idaho, the library`s official rules explicitly deal only with respect, such as talking quietly with others and working quietly. But in general, most of the rules of the rest of the campus also apply to the library. So whenever you visit the university campus library, follow the rules that apply to the rest of the university campus. College libraries have rules that require you to have your student ID with you because you`ll need it to borrow books or materials. In addition, some college libraries require you to use your student ID to register in the library before entering. However, not all libraries on university campuses adopt this rule. Also, high school libraries have a rule that you should be calm and respectful of others when you`re at the library. This does not mean that conversations are completely forbidden. You can still talk to your friends in the library, but you need to be careful about your noise level to be polite to those around you.

Also, be sure to log out of your student account when you stop using a library computer, but don`t turn off the computer completely. This saves your librarians the hassle of restarting the entire computer system. Failure to comply with these regulations may result in expulsion from a library program or facility, suspension of library privileges, and/or arrest and prosecution to the fullest extent permitted by law. The Library reserves the right to modify these Terms from time to time. There are many rules in high school and college libraries. Still, most of them have a lot in common, so it should be relatively easy to get used to the rules in a brand new library. Not running is a rule in high school libraries because you might run over an object or person in your hurry. This is especially true if you walk through the narrow aisles between the shelves of the library.

Usually, they allow you to walk quickly, but you should get to the place where you need to be on time without walking into the library. Parents, guardians and/or guardians are solely responsible for the safety and behaviour of their children. We inform you that children, like all library users, are required to comply with the « General Rules and Regulations » of the library and that a child who violates these rules may be asked to leave the library rooms. Parents, guardians and/or caregivers should be aware of expected closing times and be aware that sometimes a library may close unexpectedly due to an emergency or safety issue. It is the responsibility of parents, guardians and/or caregivers to inform their children of what to do if they have to leave the library in an emergency. Some of the rules of university campus libraries differ from the rules of the high school library: A bulk book/newspaper can be distributed to library members for the night. This is only from the Reference section after 20.00 – 21.00. The next day before 10:00 am, borrowed materials must only be returned in this section, if there is a delay on the part of the member, the respective member cannot be borrowed overnight. The number of documents that members can borrow at a time is only one. There is a fine of Rs.5 for delaying the recommissioning of one pound per day. Many high school libraries have specific rules against lending borrowed library books from your friends.

Often, library books tend to get lost if they constantly change hands. These friends can easily borrow the book themselves once it has been returned to the library. Ultimately, you are responsible for all library books borrowed in your name, whether in your possession or belonging to your friend. So if you lend a bookbook to a friend and they damage it, expect you to pay for their actions. As part of its mission to ensure open access to information and the exchange of ideas, Michigan State University Libraries sponsor a number of programs in its research libraries. The goal of these programs is to provide the opportunity to listen to and experiment with presentations and discussions on current and interesting topics with participants representing a wide range of perspectives. All members of the MSU community are invited to participate in library programs, subject to occupancy restrictions and ticket requirements, if applicable. To create an environment conducive to the purpose of the programs, all participants must comply with the following regulations: This should go without saying, but if you`re eating at the library, be sure to clean your space and brush off all the crumbs. No one wants to walk into the library and sit at a table with crumbs, especially if they have a food allergy. So if you`re eating in a library, clean it up. Another basic principle of library etiquette is to answer all the calls you receive outside the library building. No matter how quietly you think you`re talking, phone calls will be a distraction in the library.

The volume of your phone conversation contrasts sharply with the silence of the library environment. So if you need to answer the call, make sure you do it outside. Most university campus libraries have similar rules to high school libraries, but all university campus library rules are posted somewhere online or on campus. You should be able to find all the rules of the university campus library on the library`s website. If you`re hosting a study group session in a library, make sure everyone in the group makes an effort to keep noise to a minimum. Ideally, the noise level should be loud enough for everyone to hear the group member talking, but not louder. While libraries are great places for study groups, others go to the library to find peace and quiet. These people don`t want to hear your learning session. Although the rules specific to each secondary school vary depending on each school`s library, many rules remain the same in all secondary school libraries. Surprisingly, many colleges allow you to eat and drink whatever you want, as long as you pay for the damage you cause if or when you spill something on a book that belongs to the library. Although many rules are the same for the high school library, they vary slightly depending on the library.

If you`re not sure what your high school library`s rules are, ask one of the librarians what they are. If you chose a book but decided not to borrow it from the library, put it back where you found it. If you don`t remember its original location, take it to a librarian and ask where it`s going. Don`t leave the book on the table when you leave. It`s very disrespectful to librarians, and it`s not their job to clean up others. High school and college libraries have rules, but few people know all the rules they must follow in these institutions. Over the years, I have studied hundreds of hours in different libraries and become familiar with their rules. So what are the rules for libraries in high schools and colleges? If you leave a table in a bookcase, be sure to tidy up your chair before you leave.

While this is considered a common courtesy in many places, it is an unspoken rule in libraries. Some people will walk around reading in the library. As you can imagine, they are not so aware of what is right in front of them. As a result, they can accidentally hit your chair if you don`t push it. Also, aisles in libraries, especially school libraries, tend to be very narrow, so if you don`t plug in your chair, you make it harder for others to walk around, which is rude. While many libraries don`t have explicit rules for adhering to library resources, be sure to do so, especially if you`re using their computers. It would be best if you used the computers in the library only for educational purposes and not for personal entertainment. There are a limited number of computers in the library, so it wouldn`t be fair for others to take a valuable place to browse the web and watch YouTube videos.

Note: The Library reserves the right to add, remove or modify these Terms and Conditions at any time and from time to time and upon written notice in the form and manner specified by the Library. The rules of the high school library include: no food, return books on time, be calm and respectful, do not lend books to others, do not write in books, put books back in place, and do not run.
