Abstract:
The research aims to reveal and study the transformational process of the Polish judicial system in a historical context, focusing on the Lviv Court of Appeal, district and city courts of the Lviv Appellate District in the period between the First and Second World Wars (1919-1939). Analyzing this period, we will consider the influence of key historical, political, social and legal factors on the structure and functioning of the judicial system. The specificity of the interwar period was determined by political instability, changes in power, and territorial negotiations. In this context, the re

Abstract:
Criminal sentences are rarely reversed for being too long. Of the approximately one million federal sentences imposed in the past fifteen years, appellate courts have only held about two dozen substantively unreasonable. Judges have, even in public statements, described substantive reasonableness review as “functionally nonexistent” and “a waste of time.” Against this backdrop, three decisions from the Sixth Circuit published within the last year are nothing short of remarkable. In each case, the panel concluded that the district court, despite following standard processes and procedures, had

Abstract:
The United States Senate must expeditiously confirm United States District Court for the Northern District of Texas Magistrate Judge Irma Carrillo Ramirez, who has definitely earned appointment to the United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit and will become the appellate court’s initial Latina member. This regional circuit effectively resolves substantial appeals, enjoys a large judicial complement, and certainly possesses a reputation as the nation’s most conservative appellate court.

Malaŵi has two sets of courts which run completely parallel to each other. One set forms the Judicial Branch of the Government and consists of magistrates’ courts (which have original civil and criminal jurisdiction only), the High Court (which has unlimited original and appellate civil and criminal jurisdiction) and the Supreme Court of Appeal (which has original criminal jurisdiction for contempt of court but otherwise has appellate civil and criminal jurisdiction). The Supreme Court of Appeal is a final appellate court in this set of courts. These courts are here called Received Courts beca

ABSTRACT: Suicide is the leading cause of death in jails. Especially at risk are pretrial detainees. This paper provides clinicians who serve as consultants to jails with an overview of legal precedent concerning liability for jail suicide on the federal appellate, federal district, and state levels. Liability on the federal level is based upon actions involving deliberate indifference or gross negligence. A table is provided granting a summary view of appellate‐level decisions on liability for jail suicide. Liability on the state level involves lesser standards of negligence. The paper conclu

After decades of debates and policy discussions, in early 2010, the Obama Administration, with the Democrat party controlling both the House and the Senate, passed a National Health Insurance Act. The Patient Protection and Affordability Act was immediately challenged in court. One district court in Florida declared it unconstitutional. Two other district courts and an appellate court declared it constitutional. This paper looks at the Act and those issues.

In recent Terms the Supreme Court has heard numerous appeals from the decisions of three-judge district courts in controversial Voting Rights Act cases as well as in challenges to congressional districts designed allegedly to facilitate the election of members of minority groups.

On April 26, 1996, Congress enacted landmark legislation aimed at curtailing meritless inmate litigation and restricting remedies for prison condition lawsuits. This legislation, the Prison Litigation Reform Act (PLRA), is briefly summarized in this article. Five areas of constitutional challenges to the PLRA at the appellate and district court level are reviewed. Eleven legal issues raised by the PLRA are inconsistent decisions among circuit and district courts, particularly in the areas of separation of powers and due process violations.

Several scholars, most notably judges, have called for judicial reform in the selection process of appellate and supreme court justices in Texas. However, not much attention has been placed on the selection process of Texas trial court judges. This Article focuses on the genealogy of district courts in Texas, with an emphasis on Texas's family court system, an area of the law that decides the fate of thousands of children who, for the most part, are unable to speak for themselves and that comprises a majority of civil cases within the state of Texas.

Abstract This chapter examines the effects of interpersonal contact on the propensity of U.S. Courts of Appeals judges to reverse the decisions made by their colleagues on U.S. District Courts. Based on both law and practice, appellate judges rely on their assessments of a trial judge’s quality when deciding whether to affirm or reverse. We suggest interpersonal conduct is one way appellate judges form assessments of a lower court judge’s quality. Relying on a dataset of all published Fourth Amendment search and seizure decisions from 1953 to 2010, this chapter finds that when appellate and tr

New Zealand is a common law country. The judicial structure is the Supreme Court and the Court of Appeal, which are appellate courts only; the High Court, which hears appeals from District Courts in some situations but is also a court of first instance; the District Court, which is principally a court of first instance but also hears appeals from some Tribunals; and various Tribunals. There is also a Family Court, in which warranted District Court judges sit, and which—along with the High Court—deals with adult protection matters.

Abstract:
In the United States federal court system, from a procedural standpoint, it has been the historic policy that appeals to the Courts of Appeal lie only from final decisions by the district courts. This policy, dubbed the final judgment rule, is designed to prevent a piecemeal approach to appellate practice, and to enhance efficiency and fairness. Applied overly strictly, the rule can often lead to unfair results, and even irreparable harm. This article catalogues the primary exceptions to the final judgment rule, and discusses those instances when interlocutory appeals may be taken short of dis

Abstract On June 25, 1962, James Meredith got a major break in his lawsuit against Ole Miss. The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth District in New Orleans found that he had been rejected by the university solely because of race, thereby overturning the lower court’s decision. Four months earlier, Federal District Court Judge Sidney C. Mize, a graduate of the University of Mississippi Law School and a staunch segregationist, had found that Meredith had failed to prove that Ole Miss had a policy of denying admission to Negro applicants. Now the appellate court reversed Mize’s decision. Writing
