Law
1 answer:
Troyanec [42]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

political factors

Explanation:

Judges do not make decisions based on political factors. The law is blind and sees no one's face,  Decisions are made based on precedents, statutes , maxims etc and must be seen to be fair/just. Judges are not empowered to make decisions/judgement on political grounds. This is a dangerous factor that can lead to wide spread demonstration among citizens; thus must be avoided.

Answer:

Yes as an investigaiter uderstanding Agathas motive would be important because she coud be getting the water cause she is realy be thirsty or she could be getting it to taget  Eric by using the water excuse used to spy on him so hearing her motive would help me put as an investigator.

AS a jury it would be important to hear Agatha´s motive because I can hear why she was trespasing to get the water because she could be dehydrated and need the water. For a jury to hear her story would make to choose the choice of guilty or inicent and alos so she gets a chance to speak for herself then from what a investigator found.

Imagine you are a typical judge. After college, you went to law school. Then you passed a difficult bar exam to be licensed to p
spin [16.1K]

Answer:

As a judge, you should be required to pick from a limited range of sentences for each offense.

Explanation:

Some may argue that having passed a difficult bar exam to be licensed to practice law, spending years prosecuting or defending criminal cases, and being involved in thousands of criminal trials should qualify a judge to be free to make any sentencing decision they want—but this notion is incorrect.

Although judges tend to be extremely experienced and highly intelligent, granting judges too much leeway in sentencing decisions leads to issues like sentencing disparity (disproportionate sentencing in similar cases). Before the passage of the Sentencing Reform Act (SRA) in 1984, sentencing disparities within the United States justice system were largely unaddressed, so the SRA sought to address sentencing disparities with the imposition of mandatory sentencing guidelines for federal sentences. However, the SRA limited the power of judges to a great extent, an issue that would be addressed in the <em>United States v. Booker</em> (2005) Supreme Court case, with the court ruling the sentencing guidelines imposed by the SRA be deemed advisory rather than mandatory. What can be learned from these legal developments is that sentencing guidelines are necessary for reducing disparity within the justice system, but should remain advisory so as to not place any excessive limitations on the authority or sentencing liberty of judges.

The closest answer to the Supreme Court's legal precedent—our ideal in this case—would be picking from a limited range of sentences for each offense rather than having no limitations at all, as the latter would likely result in a return to the non-uniform, disparity-ridden justice system seen before the passage of the SRA.
