Answer:

Corpus delicti literally means the body or substance of the crime. In law the term refers to proof establishing that a crime has occurred. Testimony that a ship's passenger pushed the deceased overboard can establish the corpus delicti of murder even if the body is never recovered.

Compare the text of the United States' first amendment, guaranteeing Freedom of Expression, with the United Kingdom's Human Righ
jasenka [17]

Answer:

The United States first amendment carried more protection and less restriction in its implementation and here is why.

The edict of the United States does not qualify the application of the clause granting freedom of expression. That of the United Kingdom does. In doing so, it ensures that Freedom of Expression is used appropriately in that it must be targeted at the common good and the well being of the state.

It states, for instance, that

<em>"Public authorities may restrict this right if they can show that their action is lawful, necessary and proportionate in order to: </em>

  • <em> protect national security, territorial integrity (the borders of the state) or public safety </em>
  • <em>prevent disorder or crime </em>
  • <em>protect health or morals </em>
  • <em>protect the rights and reputations of other people </em>
  • <em>prevent the disclosure of information received in confidence </em>
  • <em>maintain the authority and impartiality of judges"</em>

Cheers!

If you were a member of the Supreme Court what law would you rule as unconstitutional? What basis would you use to support your
Vsevolod [243]

Answer:

Explanation:

The def: not in accordance with a political constitution, especially the US Constitution, or with procedural rules. Ex." we cannot tolerate unconstitutional action" Declaring laws constitutional or un unconstitutional is done by the deciding in the Judicial Branch of government.

However, governments do not just create laws. Governments also enforce the laws set forth in the document defining the government—in the Constitution. In the United States, the failure to seat duly elected representatives of the people following a proper election, or the failure to provide for such elections would be unconstitutional even in the absence of any legislated laws whatsoever.

When the proper court determines that a legislative act (a law) conflicts with the constitution, it finds that law unconstitutional and declares it void in whole or in part. This is called judicial review. The portion of the law declared void is considered struck down, or the entire statute is considered struck from the statute books.

Depending on the type of legal system, a statute may be declared unconstitutional by any court, or only by special Constitutional courts with authority to rule on the validity of a statute. In some countries, the legislature may create any law for any purpose, and there is no provision for courts to declare a law unconstitutional. This can occur either because the country has no codified constitution that laws must conform to (e.g., the United Kingdom and New Zealand) or because the constitution is codified but no court has the authority to strike down laws on the basis of it (e.g., the Netherlands and Switzerland).
