property rights being subjected to uniform laws is a compelling argument, but I don’t think it is a realistic one. It sounds like an ideal situation where no matter what country you are in, you know what to expect. Honestly, I think it might be impossible or at least would take years to successfully carry out. There are too many differences in the laws across the nation and some countries may have to change their current laws to comply with uniform laws causing more work. Different treatment…
Is it just to break an unjust law? It is just to break an unjust law if it is morally wrong. Doing it in your own belief demonstrates the power behind the act to break an unjust law. Laws that may be appealing to the government might not be appealing to people who oppose them. Doing what's morally right is better than following an unjust law. Standing up to unjust laws shows moxie. I support breaking an unjust law because it takes real guts to actually do it. Three examples of this can be…

Legislation is the primary source of Scots law and it is decided and approved by the parliamentary will. There are three sources of legislation binding in Scots law: - European legislation -…
notions of law, law of man and law of the divine. Though there are opinions as to which of the two is the most powerful, the text supports the divine law as being the most influential law in the characters’ lives. Consequences the character’s face when disobeying the divines will and the faith they have in divine law all make clear that divine law is the supreme form of law in this text. Divine law is what many of the citizen’s feel is the most significant law, the law they feel…

In Beck, the Court of Appeals interpreted New York vehicle and Traffic Law (NYVTL) 463(2)(ff)(“the Modification Law”) to provide a dealer with a private right of action to “challenge a modification and places on a franchisor the burden of proving that such modification is fair and not prohibited.” 27 N.Y. 3d at 393. In furtherance of the legislative intent, to counter the unequal will of the manufacturer, the Modification Law contemplates legal action prior to the cause of the negative…
Discussion Point: I would like the class to discuss how the ambiguity in laws were used to control the legal rights of Filipinos and Filipino identification through court rulings that were dependent on a judge’s subjective interpretation of the laws. Supporting Paragraph: This is an important topic to talk about because judges are responsible for interpreting the law and applying the laws equally to everyone. Laws like Naturalization have ambiguity in them so that judges can exercise discretion…

AU$18.5 billion. These figures are roughly 100 times more than 45 years ago (Global Sales and Contract Law, 2012). At the dawn of the 21st century when commerce is more integrated than ever before and jurisdictions are attempting to make themselves more commercially flexible, exercises aimed at rendering the common law less opaque and creating a common legal grammar, if not a common substantive law, should not be unduly discarded. So why has Australia taken such a ‘piecemeal’ approach to the…
