Habeas corpus petitioners must navigate the procedural barriers of the Anti-terrorism and Effective Death Penalty Act (“AEDPA”) before courts consider their petitions on the merits. Among the barriers imposed is a general prohibition on “second or successive” habeas petitions, meaning a petitioner who previously filed a habeas petition may not bring another, with limited exceptions. One such exception, recognized by the Supreme Court in Magwood v. Patterson, allows for a second habeas petition after the petitioner obtains a “new judgment.” Magwood and AEDPA, however, left the term “new judgment” undefined. This Note summarizes the history of habeas corpus in the United States, the passage of AEDPA, and the Magwood decision. It contends that the interpretation of “new judgment” adopted by some circuits is impermissibly restrictive of the implied right to petition for habeas relief. Thus, it proposes a simplified interpretation: any judicial change to the original judgment renders a “new judgment,” achieving a better balance between the interests of the petitioner and the state.

The subject of this article is the right to petitions specified in Article 17 of the Basic Law of the Federal Republic of Germany. This provision regulates the individual’s right to address requests and complaints to public authorities. This publication contains an analysis of this institution with regard to entities that are entitled to exercise this right, as well as entities obliged to consider submitted petitions. The author begins the analysis of the indicated institution be reviewing the evolution of the historical right to petition, which has evolved from the institution of supplication known in ancient Rome. He indicates changes in the subjective scope of the right to petitions, focusing on the achievements of German constitu- tionalism in the 19th century. Next, the current regulation that guarantees the right to petition in Germany in its normative environment is presented. The public authorities that are the addressees of the petition have been analysed, and the scope of duties associated with receiving a complaint or request indicated. Furthermore the author describes particular types of entities that are guaranteed the right to submit petitions under the Basic Law of the Federal Republic of Germany. In this respect, various kinds of restrictions of this right, depending on the type of the petitioner, are identified. The last part of the work contains the characteristics of various forms of petitions due to the type of author and the addressee. Various functions which currently are fulfilled by the institution of petitions were subjected to analysis. In this context, a distinction was made between individual petitions and collective petitions, tak- ing into account their subject matter and the aims intended by the petitioner. The author also shows the future possibility of a development of the discussed institution, describing the public petition to the Bundestag, which has an electronic form.

Why do petitions flourish when they are often denied if not ignored by the sovereigns who receive them? When activists seek to build political organizations in network-rich but information-poor environments, petitioning as institutional technology facilitates recruitment. A petition’s signatory list identifies and locates individuals sympathetic to its prayer and expresses to other citizens who and how many agree with the prayer. Three historical moments—the explosion of antislavery petitioning in the antebellum United States, the emergence of Protestantism in sixteenth-century France, and England’s suppression of petitioning after the Restoration Settlement of 1660—provide vivid demonstrations of the theory. A recruitment-based theory implies that petition drives mobilize as much as they express, that well-established groups and parties petition less frequently, and that the most important readers of a petition are those asked to sign it. The petition’s recruitment function complements, but also transforms, its function of messaging the sovereign. Contemporary digital petitioning both routinizes and takes its force from the petition’s embedded recruitment technology.

Abstract An e-petition (online petition or internet petition) is one of the most popular ways for civil society to interact with public authorities. It is no accident that the number of countries implementing this e-democracy tool is increasing. The institution of electronic petition has its own peculiarities in each country where it has been introduced: different forms, subjects, filing procedures and legal consequences. The common feature is that the e-petition is an independent form of direct democracy through which citizens participate in the management of public affairs. The article investigates the place of e-petitions in the system of direct democracy forms, analyzes practices of using the institution of electronic petitions, shows the establishment of the institution of e-petitions in Ukraine, reveals the concepts and features of online petitions, and highlights the problems of implementing the right to electronic petition in Ukraine.

Purpose This study aims to identify factors behind the intention to sign e-petitions, focusing on three aspects, i.e. information (argument quality), the source of information (source credibility) and personal perspective (personal relevance and altruism). Design/methodology/approach Data collection is done by using a quantitative approach through an online questionnaire. This study involved 211 respondents who were internet users in Indonesia who had signed an e-petition. The data were analyzed using structural equation modeling approach with IBM Amos version 22.0. Findings The findings revealed that there are three factors shaping internet users’ attitudes toward e-petitions, namely, altruism, AQ and personal relevance, of which altruism was the strongest factor. Those who have a positive attitude toward e-petitions seemed to have higher intention to sign e-petitions. Additionally, we discovered that internet users believe credible e-petition initiators deliver better arguments, which drive them to sign e-petitions. Research limitations/implications The finding related to elaboration likelihood model has revealed that not only the dual processing of central routes and peripheral routes but also the possibility of peripheral routes influencing the factors in the central route. Hence, future studies need to include the examination of this relation. Finally, altruism is identified as the major factor that influences people to sign e-petitions. Therefore, people should be aware of this factor while examining the environment that likely has voluntary aspects. Practical implications To improve the adoption of the e-petition system, it is important for the e-petition websites to maintain attitude factors to achieve the e-petition goals. It is also important that e-petition websites provide credibility information of the e-petition initiators and make it visible to everyone. The e-petition sites must be able to be personalized so that users can be categorized based on their profiles or interests. Finally, as altruism is the most influencing factor in shaping internet users’ attitude toward e-petitions, e-petition initiators need to write a persuasive and arousing information and images for their e-petition. Some templates, tips or even online training to persuasive public petitions also need to be provided. Originality/value This study attempts to fill the research gap by examining factors from three domains, i.e. information source (the e-petitioners), information/AQ and personal perspective (personal motivation) of the e-petition signers. The authors enrich the research model with altruism factors that influence attitude in signing petitions. This study illustrates the characteristic of Indonesian internet user’s and provides important implications for how the e-petitions site should improve the functionality of the sites.

248 Background: The National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) invites petitions to its scientific panels. Most ( > 95%) are from the pharmaceutical industry lobbying to include their products in the NCCN Guidelines. Rarely, physicians request scientific scrutiny of the guidelines. We report the experience of Oncology Analytics (OA) with petition submissions and the possible impact on guidelines. Methods: From 2011-2015, OA made 7 petitions to NCCN. The content of each was tracked into subsequent NCCN Guidelines to ascertain whether any changes resulted. Results: 1) The Survivorship Panel was petitioned to add liposomal doxorubicin to the list of cardiotoxic anthracyclines: No changes were made. 2-3) The NSCLC Panel was asked in 2014 to remove the category 2A listing for trastuzumab and afatinib as HER-2 targeted drugs, and cabozantinib as a RET rearrangement target based on absence of phase I-III full text scientific literature. This was done, however, cabozantinib was reverted to 2A status late 2015 based on abstract-only data. 4) Per FDA approval, the NSCLC Panel was asked to recommend bevacizumab only in combination with carboplatin/paclitaxel for 1st line non-squamous NSCLC based on a survival advantage in ECOG 4599: No changes were made. 5) Given the FDA-approval, the Ovarian Cancer Panel was requested to add doxorubicin: This was done. 6) A 2012 Supportive Care Panel petition pointed out the absence of data supporting palonosetron as the preferred 5-HT3 antagonist with aprepitant for moderate or high emetic risk chemotherapy: No change was made upon request; however, preferred status was removed in 2015 from high emetic risk. 7) Based on a preponderance of evidence, a Supportive Care Panel petition requested re-categorization of the febrile neutropenia risk for carboplatin/paclitaxel from intermediate to low except in patients of Japanese ancestry and/or carboplatin AUC > 6: This was done. Conclusions: Majority of NCCN physician petitions came from OA, yet constituted less than 5% of all petitions submitted. NCCN does not provide direct petitioner feedback, so we cannot say for certain that our petitions led to changes in subsequent guidelines. Not all requests resulted in NCCN changes, despite level one supportive data or accentuating an absence of data.

<p><i>Pat’s Petition was originally an e-petition submitted on the UK Government’s website asking the Department for Work and Pensions to ‘stop and review the changes to benefits and services which are falling disproportionately on disabled people, their carers and families’. All e-petitions are submitted by an individual, in this case Pat Onions, and aim to reach 100,000 signatures for the possibility of debate in parliament.</i></p><p><i>Pat’s Petition was a small group formed of volunteers, all with firsthand experience of the issue as disabled people and/or carers, who had no previous experience as a group or in reaching out online to a wider community for petition signatures. The petition reached over 62,600 signatures and ended on November 1<sup>st</sup> 2012. At the time, it was the 12<sup>th</sup> most successful petition out of the 10,294 closed petitions.</i></p><p><i>While the group continues to press for change, it is helpful to reflect on the learning of their first year; specifically the development of the group and the use of e-petitions.

The article substantiates the thesis that electronic petitions are potentially capable of acting as an effective means of challenging illegal decisions, actions, and inactivity of state authorities. In this case, the institution of the electronic petition is a mechanism that creates comfortable conditions for expressing the will of citizens, regardless of their place of residence. The article analyzes the status of the legal regulation of the institute of the electronic petition in Ukraine and the practice of its functioning. The shortcomings of the legislation on electronic petitions that negatively influence the effectiveness of this institute are systematized. The study proposes a number of measures to improve the effectiveness of electronic petitions, namely: the implementation of educational activities among the population (especially rural areas) regarding the appointment and use of the institution of electronic petition; establishing of an imperative status for petitions that overcome the minimum of votes in their support; preventing the loss of votes by the same type of petition with identical appeals; blocking irrelevant petitions; improving the interface of relevant electronic resources on which petitions are published.

Purpose The development of Big Data and online searching engine provides a good opportunity for studying petition in China. This study has constructed a set of indices for predicting petitions in China by using online searching engines and further explored the predicting role of economic, environment and public life risk perception in various petitions. Design/methodology/approach Based on the study of Xue and Liu (2017), this research first re-classified offline petition by human and cluster analysis in terms of social risk perception and built online searching indices of the two sets of petition by using data from “Google Trend” and “Baidu Index.” Second, it analyzed the predicting effect of social risk perception on online searching indices of petition by using Granger causality analysis. Finally, this study integrated the results and selected significant paths from social risk perception to the two sets of petition. Findings The study found that the re-classification made by human was more appropriate than the categories made by cluster analysis in terms of social risk perception. For the two sets of petition, the correlations between offline petition and Baidu Index of petition were both more significant than that of Google index. Moreover, economic and finance and resource and environment risk perception had a significant predicting effect on more than one kind of online searching indices of petition. Originality/value The results have demonstrated the important role of economic issues in China on predicting petitions of the economic kind, as well as other kinds. They have also reflected the dominant social contradictions and their relationship in modern China.

Petitioner, the Libyan National Oil Corp. (NOC), filed the petition to confirm an arbitral award rendered in Paris against Libyan Sun Oil Co. (LSOC), a Delaware corporation. The petition was based on the UN Convention on the Recognition and Enforcement of Foreign Arbitral Awards (Convention). LSOC opposed the petition on the grounds that NOC was not entitled to access to U.S. courts because of the state of relations between the United States and Libya and that the Libyan Sanctions Regulations prevented NOC from maintaining its claim in the absence of a license from the Treasury Department’s Office of Foreign Assets Control. In addition, LSOC argued that confirmation of the award should be denied under various provisions of the Convention, including the “public policy” defense embodied in Article V(2)(b). The district court (per Latchum, J.) held that NOC had standing to bring the petitión and that the defenses set forth in the Convention were inapplicable. The award was thus confirmed.

The article analyzes historical and legal aspects of the right to petition. It had determined that the concept of petitioning the authorities dates back to the Magna Carta (1215), which provided for the freedom of barons to petition the king if they felt injustice The author notes that in the XIV century. Petitions gained particular importance due to the collapse of feudalism, the strengthening of political institutions, and the emergence of a strong sovereign with a centralized bureaucracy; in particular, the English monarchs openly encouraged and considered petitions.It had noted that an essential historical stage in the further development of the right to appeal could be considered the Petition of the Right, the purpose of which was to limit the powers of the monarch and included issues of taxation, the application of martial law, imprisonment without trial etc.The author analyzes the further development of petitions in Great Britain and summarizes that the right to petition arose from the need to maintain relations between the community and state authorities long before the election period.The historical aspect of the right to petition in the USA is analyzed. It had determined that in 1789, the US Congress included the right to petition and other freedoms in the US Constitution’s First Amendment.It had noted that the intensification of petitioning had connected with the suffragette movement in the USA.Features of forming and developing the right to petition in France had described. It indicated that petitions gained central importance during the Great French Revolution when they became a true expression of the will of citizens to participate in public life.The author points out that the right to submit petitions belonged to the civil rights of a person along with such rights as the right to freedom, the right to freedom of movement and choice of residence, the right to assemble peacefully, and others.The article pays special attention to the peculiarities of forming petitions in the European Union. It emphasized that Article 21 of the EU Treaty and the EU Charter on Fundamental Rights established the right to submit petitions. Submitting petitions, requirements for petitions, and submission subjects considered separately.The author concludes that petitions were important not only in terms of whether their requests granted at all but also because of the connection they created between representatives and the represented in the era before universal suffrage.

China has established a petition system to elicit information about grievances. However, the petition system may have perverse effects because it also reveals to the center the failure of local-level officials to resolve those grievances. Anecdotal accounts suggest that local officials have incentive to silence petitioners, often with the use of repression. In this article we study whether non-regime threatening petitions would provoke local governments' coercive response. To tackle the endogenous relationship between petition and repression, we take advantage of a natural experiment afforded by a change in hydroelectricity policy in China. In particular, we use provincial hydropower outputs as an instrument to identify citizen petitions. We find that citizen petitions significantly increase a province's spending on its repressive apparatus. The results suggest a paradoxical outcome of China's petition system: while it may help reduce the national authority's use of repression, it has caused an explosion of repression within the authoritarian system as a whole.

AbstractIn a political culture that experiences inordinately high levels of petitioning, what makes for a successful petition? This article studies petitions that have been efficacious in their appeals to capture or kill big cats in Himalayan India. The rates of success for any appeal against big cats are low in contemporary India, given the stringent legal regime that is geared almost exclusively towards the protection of the charismatic and endangered big cats as well as the hegemonic position occupied by wildlife conservationism. Furthermore, not only is it difficult to petition against cossetted big cats, but it is also not an easy task for any petition to be heard and acquiesced to. Through an ethnography of efficacious petitions, this article makes three related interventions. First, and in the process of attending to the rarity of a handful of efficacious petitions, this article argues for expanding our conceptualization of what, in practice, a petition is. It does so by outlining the changing forms of efficacious petitions, which can range from a telephone call, a register entry, a WhatsApp message from a smart phone, to the more ‘traditional’ paper-based petition. Beyond its ever-evolving medium, this article demonstrates the criticality of folding petitioning into a wider process that involves planning, performance, perseverance, repetition, and the capacity to elicit visceral responses. Finally, through an ethnographic foregrounding of human-big cat interactions, it demonstrates how an acceptance and elaboration of animal agency enriches the study of politico-legal processes.

This paper engages with civic development in urban neighborhoods in China after the period of reform that began in 1978. Examining the collective civic petitions that have occurred in urban neighborhoods, the paper offers a comparative analysis of changing trends, internal mechanisms, and their spatial distribution between two different-tier cities. Data pertaining to the collective civic petitions was drawn from open archives in two municipal bureaus, and related to the years 2013 to 2015. The data was then split into three types of petition typology—claim, protest, and hybrid. Certain similarities and differences emerged from the analysis relating to the types of petition that have occurred against different petition counterparties, namely, state authorities, real developers, and property management companies. Similarities among the two cities could be capable of indicating advancing urban civic developments with internal mechanisms among petition typology and contexts of individual petitions. Differences among the two cities could be related to various differences in their urban contexts, and may also reflect different levels of citizen civic consciousness and behavior.

The increasing number of e-petition services requires accurate calculation methods to perform rapid and automated delivery. Automated text classification significantly reduces the burden of manual sorting, improving service efficiency. Moreover, existing text classification methods focus on improving sole models with an insufficient exploration of hybrid models. Moreover, existing research lacks combinatorial model selection schemes that yield satisfactory performance for petition classification applications. To address these issues, we propose a hybrid deep-learning classification model that can accurately classify the responsible department of a petition. First, e-petitions were collected from the Chinese bulletin board system and then cleaned, segmented, and tokenized into a sequence of words. Second, we employed the word2vec model to pretrain an embedding matrix based on the e-petition corpus. An embedding matrix maps words into vectors. Finally, a hybridized classifier based on convolutional neural networks (CNN) and bidirectional long short-term memory (Bi-LSTM) is proposed to extract features from the title and body of the petition. Compared with baseline models such as CNN, Bi-LSTM, and Bi-LSTM-CNN, the weighted F1 score of the proposed model is improved by 5.82%, 4.31%, and 1.58%, respectively. Furthermore, the proposed automated petition classification decision support system is available on the e-petition website and can be used to accurately deliver petitions and conduct citizen opinion analysis.

The article presents the results of an empirical study on electronic petitions posted on the Change.org French-speaking segment, geographically linked to France. The relevance of the topic is due to the intervention of modern information and communication technologies in political reality and the need for scientific reflection of the consequences of digital changes in political processes. The authors of the article analyse the regional particularities of the online petition activity by the inhabitants of France on the material of 15 887 electronic petitions (January 2015 – October 2017), 570 of which are petitions with the status of “victory” (4 %). The authors note that the European territories of France form three main groups of online petition activity (with low, medium and high petition activity). Residents of France most often relate to social problems (social security, health care and education) in electronic petitions. In addition, Change.org is actively registering electronic petitions on issues related to crime and terrorism, discrimination, the environment, the economy and animal welfare. Electronic petitions about problems of culture, sports and problems of confessional relations are recorded relatively rarely. The greatest response from the recipients of the petition is caused by problems in the social sphere, education and health. The French society, through the prism of activity on the non-governmental Internet resource Change.org, appears as a modern society with post-industrial values, preoccupied with security issues, in an active and relatively productive dialogue with its political and business elite.

The first amendment prohibits Congress from making any law that abridges the right of the people “to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.” This clause reflects many years of practical experience with petitions, both in England and in the American colonies. Unlike the right of free speech, which has attracted much scholarly attention, the right of petition has received little scrutiny from commentators or judges. The scope of the substantive right embodied in the clause is still a matter of dispute.This article explores a key incident in the history of the right of petition—the congressional imposition in the 1830s of a “gag rule” to prohibit the reception of petitions related to slavery. This restriction on petitions was a turning point both for a change in the meaning of the right and for the procedures permitted by Congress to give it expression. The gag rule effectively quashed the right to petition as it had been exercised for centuries—as a means of communicating the people's grievances to government. Although the right still exists, its traditional usage and meaning “disappeared” in the 1830s.

The centrality of individual petition in ritual practice in the Hebrew Bible is rarely recognized. This article draws connections between legislation for the well-being sacrifice (זבח שלמים; Lev. 3; 7.11–36) and individual petitions as presented in biblical narratives and psalms. Hannah’s successful petition for a son (1 Sam. 1.1–2.10) illustrates the petition process and the stakes. Solomon’s dedication of the Temple (1 Kgs. 8) further details the process and authorizes seven types of petitions with equal provision for individuals vs. the nation and for sin-based vs. inexplicable crises. Of these, inexplicable crises faced by individuals are literally the most central. Hannah’s crisis is of this type. The types authorized for individuals are reflected in numerous first-person psalms, which also make frequent use of the terminology of well-being offerings. Individual petition provides for an ongoing oral interaction with a God who is perceived as open to persuasion in a public space where an individual’s social status may also be negotiated.

This paper contributes to the field of e-participation by studying e-petitioning on both formal and informal petition bodies. The aim is to contribute to the understanding of the features of formal and informal e-petition platforms as well as the characteristics of the e-petitions. A formal (kansalaisaloite.fi) and an informal e-petition platform (adressit.com) in Finland were compared using quantitative content analysis. By examining the differences between formal and informal platforms, this paper sheds light over citizens' political behavior in the form of online petitioning. The varying formality of the platforms was reflected in their features and e-petitioning processes. Furthermore, formal and informal e-petitions differed regarding their initiators, text length, topics, preparation quality, rationality, affectivity and connections to other types of media. E-petitions on the formal platform are better prepared, show more signs of rational argumentation, and more often concern controversial topics.

The article is devoted to the analysis of the system of speech genres of modern Ukrainian presidential discourse. The study of presidential discourse as one of the varie-ties of political discourse is carried out in a communicative and pragmatic aspect. This involved taking into account the features of communicative interaction of political in-teraction participants, selected communication strategies and tactics, and identifying communicative intentions. One of the new genres of Ukrainian presidential discourse is considered – a petition to the President of Ukraine. Petitions of citizens to the President for 2015-2023 were analyzed and the structural-semantic and communicative-pragmatic features of this genre were determined. The remote and mediated nature of petitions as a genre of electronic communication between the head of state and citizens of Ukraine is taken into account. The main communicative strategies of speakers in petitions and the specifi cs of the President’s communicative behavior as addressee and respondent are characterized. Attention is focused on linguistic means of achieving the perlocutionary eff ect in the speech genre of the petition. The communicative intention of encouragement is defi ned as the main one in the petition, which determines the implementation of speech acts of off er and request. The two-component structure of the petition was considered and the speaker’s own appeal and the addressee’s response in communicative interaction with the participation of an indirect mass addressee were analyzed. The structural elements of the President’s response as a component of the speech genre of the petition are considered and its performative nature is determined. The problems of achieving perlocutionary eff ect in petitions and low eff ectiveness in political discourse are characterized.

"Legal Certainty on Commercial Court Authority to Examine and Adjudicate Mark Dispute Without Prior Appeal Petition to The Mark Appeal Commission."

Objective: The Mark Appeal Commission has a role in examining appeal petitions against the rejection of mark registration applications. However, when the Petitioner's mark registration is rejected by the Directorate of Mark and Geographical Indication, the Petitioner immediately files a lawsuit to the Commercial Court by going through the appeal stage at the Mark Appeal Commission, there are 2 (two) verdicts that rejects and grants the lawsuit. Method: The problem of this research is related to the legal certainty on the commercial court authority to examine and adjudicate mark disputes without a prior appeal petition to the Mark Appeal Commission. The research uses a normative juridical method with qualitative analysis. Result: The research indicates that the legal certainty on the commercial court authority to examine and adjudicate mark disputes without a prior appeal petition to the Mark Appeal Commission is that an appeal petition at the Mark Appeal Commission is not an obligation or necessity or a formal requirement (procedural law) of filing a lawsuit to the Commercial Court. Conclusion: The meaning of the phrase “may” is a choice for the Petitioner to use the appeal instrument at the Mark Appeal Commission or not. Since the Directorate of Mark and Geographical Indication from the beginning has rejected the mark registration application, and the instrument of the Mark Appeal Commission is not carried out, then for the sake of legal certainty, only a court order in the form of a court verdict may change the decision of the Directorate of Mark and Geographical Indication.

The article considers the problems of implementation of electronic petitions at the local level. The world experience of introducing the institution of electronic petition as a mean of democratic state-building shows that electronic petitions have become an effective tool for communicating with the government, they give the government the opportunity to establish an open and effective dialogue with society through information technology. The urgency of the problem studied in the article is determined by a comprehensive analysis of its components and generalization of existing scientific approaches to defining the definition and nature of electronic petition, its place in the modern socio-political field of Ukraine in terms of building a democratic society in our country and problems, which exist in the implementation of electronic petitions both at the national and local levels. The Empirical data from the analysis of electronic petitions of the Lysychansk City Council according to The Unified System of Local Petitions and questionnaires and interviews with city residents show: firstly, that the top-priority problems are “improvement and construction” and “transport and roads”; secondly, the low level of involvement of Lysychansk residents in solving public administration issues at the local level. The last is due to defects in electronic petitions (the purpose of the petition is not clearly stated and is placed not at the beginning; petitions are written with wrong spelling and grammar; petitions are ambitious and unrealistic) and lack of public awareness of the service of electronic petitions.

Abstract Petitions from the Cairo Geniza often emphasize that the petitioner is lonely or “cut off” (munqaṭiʿ) from social support. Such claims are gendered, as they are more common in women’s petitions than in men’s, and women occasionally use explicitly gendered expressions to highlight their social isolation. Claiming to lack social support had a special valency in medieval Islamicate societies due to the primacy of reciprocal social relationships in these societies. Since women’s access to cultural and social capital was more limited than men’s, women lacking effective and supportive male kin were particularly vulnerable and were recognized as deserving justice. Studying claims of social isolation thus sheds light on the social predicament of Jewish women in medieval Egypt. Finally, recognizing the currency of social isolation in women’s petition helps identify an opposite trend of social belonging in men’s petitions.

Efforts to continue to increase public participation in policymaking continue to be carried out as a step toward a more open government. Along with the popularity of online petitions (e-petitions) initiated by various lines of society, a systematic analysis was carried out to find out how successful an online petition (e-petitions) is as a public space in policy making. We try to provide a new perspective from a broader side of the previous partial research. This indicator of success is based on the original purpose for which the petition was published. As a result, there are three important things that are divided into two scopes of paths for achieving goals. First, the way of communication in which there is a linguistic approach is an important factor that influences how information from the petition is conveyed to the public and leads to the publicity of the petition. Second, the way of delivery is the basis for how the voice of the community is conveyed to policymakers, which is influenced by the political will of a region. Finally, media attention is a factor between the two scopes, which have dual roles as a “toa” to the public, and a messenger of policy. This review is expected to be a reference for initiators who propose policies from the community as well as a consideration for policymakers to actively involve the community's role in the policymaking process.

The Location of verifying affidavit in a petition for a decree of dissolution of marriage or answer thereof has become a booby trap for many lawyers and judges of trial courts. Verifying Affidavit is the heart and soul of a petition, indeed, a mandatory requirement for every divorce petition or answer. The dislocation of verifying affidavit in defiance of the obligatory injunction of Order V Rule 10 (1) of the Matrimonial Causes Rules of 1983 always attracts severe sanction of outright dismissal of the Petition. The consequence is perpetual multiple preliminary objections, appeals to superior courts and dismissal of petitions, leaving the petitioners in a state of drudgery and marital comatose, since an attempt to remarry without first dissolving a statutory marriage amounts to bigamy. The purpose of this article is to render an accurate interpretation of Order V Rule 10 (1) of the Matrimonial Causes Rules and save legal practitioners the agony of having their petitions dismissed on account of improper placement of verifying affidavit. The article is structured into five segments namely: Introduction, interpretation of Order V Rule 10 (1) of Matrimonial Causes Rules, Case Law analysis of the issue, sample of a petition with verifying affidavit and conclusion. Doctrinal research methodology was applied in arriving at a valid conclusion. Emphases were placed on statutes and case laws as primary sources. Reliance was as well placed on journal articles, textbooks. Internet materials, among others, as secondary sources.

Who signs ballot initiative petitions? Do they fit a particular socio-political and demographic profile of a likely voter, or are they peripheral voters who become engaged in the political process due to the issue at hand? And are some citizens who sign petitions more likely to have valid signatures than others? Scholars have been slow to assess who is likely to become engaged in perhaps one of the most common forms of political participation: signing a ballot petitions. Drawing on an original dataset of individual-level data, we use GIS and logit models to test which citizens were more likely to sign a contoversial local ballot petition, as well as to determine who was likely to sign a valid (or invalid) petition.

AbstractThis article explores the entwined history of early colonial urbanism and the articulation of legal subjectivity under East India Company rule in South India. More specifically, it looks at petitions from outcaste labouring groups to the Madras government in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries. Although early colonial petitions were unequivocally products of colonial rule, which derived their distinctive form and language from colonial law, a reading of the petition archive is one of the only ways to achieve a historical understanding of the city of Madras as it was experienced by its less privileged inhabitants. This article looks at the delineation of the communal selfhood of subaltern urban communities through petition narratives, arguing that the variety and innovativeness displayed by petition writers is testament both to the acceptance of colonial legality and to the agency of native subjects in negotiating with, and appropriating the language and rationale of, the colonial legal regime.

The first legal mechanisms for both appeals and court proceedings appeared in the Roman state. The genesis of the development of the institution of citizens’ petitions to government agencies is undoubtedly of scientific interest. Some scholars insist that the right to petition to public authorities should be dated to 1215 with the adoption of the Magna Carta. According to another group of scholars, the origin of the right to petition appeared lately, due to the formation of political power. In any case, the right to petition to the public authorities stems from the need to protect the relationship between society and political power long before the election, which created universal suffrage.The right to petition to public authorities is the foundation of any democracy, because the law studied allows citizens to participate in the management of public affairs and influences the parliamentary agenda.

AbstractWhat role do emotions play in state repression? Building upon ethnographic observation in one Beijing petition bureau, this paper explores the emotional labour performed by grassroots officials to demobilize social dissent. The petition system serves as an official channel through which the Chinese government receives complaints and grievances from citizens. Notwithstanding its institutional inefficiency in addressing petitioners’ requirements, this system plays a critical role in maintaining social stability. I investigate the process by which frontline petition officials manage petitions. I argue that channelling petitioners’ emotions has become one of these officials’ core functions. Petition officials have developed three types of emotional strategies – emotional defusing, emotional constraint and emotional reshaping – to absorb petitioners’ complaints. This study of emotional repression offers a fresh perspective on the affective dimension of contentious politics and also contributes to the theoretical discussion on how authoritarian regimes deal with dissent.

AbstractThis article examines the role of petitions to the Sultan concerning private disputes in the legal system of Ottoman Egypt during the late seventeenth and early eighteenth centuries. Previous studies have seen petitioning as a means for subjects to complain about abuses carried out by Ottoman officials: few scholars have engaged with the many petitions involving private disputes between subjects. Based on both original petitions and Ottoman bureaucratic records, this article consists of two parts and an appendix. Part 1 describes the petitioning process, including the procedure followed by the imperial palace when handling petitions. Part 2 analyses the various ways in which sending a petition could affect the outcome of a dispute. The appendix features a reproduction and transcription of a petition which has been annotated by several palace officials, illustrating its progress through the palace bureaucracy.

Abstract The universality of the right to petition, in terms of both the broad specification of its subject matter and the group of entities entitled to petition, as well as the specification of the accessible formal requirements for filing petitions, is a challenge at the level of both lawmaking and applying the law. The need arises not only to ensure that an extensive group of entities has the opportunity to file a petition, but also to provide a guarantee that the petition will be processed and considered properly. The subject matter of this article is the analysis of the Polish legal regulations on this, as well as a review of the established practices of filing petitions with the Sejm and the Senate, as well as their comparison with the solutions applied in other countries. The findings indicate that this is a tool of a civil society commonly used in the European Union Member States. It should also be noted that the Polish solutions, as well as the practice of their application, are seen to be particularly targeted at increasing social activity and enabling the use of the potential that is inherent in the citizens, groups of citizens and all forms in which they can interact with each other.

On 31 December 1870, the Swiss philosopher, Henri-Frédéric Amiel (1821–1881), petitioned the municipal authorities of Geneva on behalf of his neighbours and himself. They lived in a street called the Rue des Belles Filles (“beautiful girls' street”) and wanted to have the name of their street changed because it alluded to prostitutes. This is just one among a multitude of historical facts that have come down to us because humble (or not so humble) suppliants put them on paper in the form of a petition, and the authorities to which these petitions were addressed took care to preserve them. Writing petitions was a common human experience. “Everybody is free to write petitions and have a drink of water”, as a traditional German saying would have it. However, as opposed to drinking water, writing petitions is an act which produces historical sources, many of which have survived. The aim of this volume is to give an overview of their importance as sources for social history.

The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of race/ethnicity on recidivism outcomes with a sample of juveniles involved with a truancy court. Three regression models were conducted to examine the influence of race/ethnicity on receiving any new court petition ( N = 1,206), including petitions for delinquency offenses or any new status offense petition within 2 years of their initial contact with the court. Results suggest that racial/ethnic disparities exist for juveniles involved in truancy court, especially with regard to new delinquency petitions. These findings are important to take into consideration to understand how truancy courts may facilitate the school-to-prison pipeline for non-White youth.

The article is devoted to a detailed study of the participation of the prosecutor in the court’s consideration of the investigator’s petition on the choice of preventive measures. The article analyses the positions of scientists and practitioners on this issue. Based on the analysis of legal literature and Russian criminal procedural legislation, the authors assessed the role of the prosecutor and identifi ed the problems of his participation in the court’s consideration of the investigator’s petitions on the choice of a preventive measure. It is especially noted that a dispute between the prosecutor and the investigator is unacceptable when the court considers the investigator's petition. The authors propose to return to the prosecutor the right to give consent to the investigator to initiate a relevant petition before the court, and also to make the prosecutor’s refusal to support the petition mandatory for the court. The article also formulates the amendments that are proposed to be made to the Criminal Procedure Code of the Russian Federation.

Examining an original dataset of more than 8,500 antislavery petitions sent to Congress (1833–1845), we argue that American women's petition canvassing conferred skills and contacts that empowered their later activism. We find that women canvassers gathered 50% or more signatures (absolute and per capita) than men while circulating the same petition requests in the same locales. Supplementary evidence (mainly qualitative) points to women's persuasive capacity and network building as the most plausible mechanisms for this increased efficacy. We then present evidence that leaders in the women's rights and reform campaigns of the nineteenth century were previously active in antislavery canvassing. Pivotal signers of the Seneca Falls Declaration were antislavery petition canvassers, and in an independent sample of post–Civil War activists, women were four times more likely than men to have served as identifiable antislavery canvassers. For American women, petition canvassing—with its patterns of persuasion and networking—shaped legacies in political argument, network formation, and organizing.

In recent years, information and communication technologies have become a source for democratic innovations, for example, the submission of electronic petitions by citizens allows drawing the attention of the authorities to the problem issues in society. These tools of e-democracy allow us to improve defined forms of traditional democracy and to maintain a systematic dialogue between the authorities and society. Electronic petition is one of the most effective tools of e-democracy, because other electronic discussion platforms do not provide such fast and reliable results. Petitions allow us to express dissatisfaction with the law passed or proposed by parliament, administrative decisions of the executive power or absence of urgent actions; express views on the results of a separate state policy. The uniqueness of petitions lies in the fact that the initiative takes place from the «bottom» of civil society to the «up» of authorities, government should only provide a platform for this. The additional benefits of using electronic petitions are the stimulation of increased interest in various state issues; publicity of their consideration, which creates a sense of solidarity in the community during the execution of a civil obligation. This tool extends the powers of citizens, further legitimizes actions of state authorities by explaining the impact of government policy on public life, maintaining close interaction between citizens and elected officials, and increasing responsibility and accountability of the government. The main purpose of the study is to analyze tool of electronic petitions, to determine its efficiency and applicability, investigate general factors influencing on motivation of signing petitions. Article deals with the general characteristics of electronic petitions, their typology; also the influence of submitted electronic petitions on the state policy is determined; defined the conditions and criteria for a successful electronic petition and motivation of citizens to use the electronic petition tool.

AbstractThis article uncovers a transimperial culture of petitioning that eased the transition for subjects who moved between the French and British empires. Although the petition was hailed as the birthright of Britons, and has consistently drawn attention from historians of Britain and its empire, this did not mean that petitioning was unknown elsewhere. Indeed, Quebec, which was transferred from France to Britain at the close of the Seven Years’ War (1756–63) and experienced lengthy periods of both French and British rule, provides an ideal site through which to document written traditions of expressing grievance. This article reveals not only that French subjects were familiar with addressing the monarch well before the British conquest, but also suggests an important continuity of form that transcended differences of language, shifting regimes, and imperial rivalries. The analysis of petitions from Quebec both before and after 1759 testifies to an identifiable commensurability in the lived experiences of inhabitants across the French and British empires, just as it underscores the petition's similar function in the overseas colonies more broadly. The petition's value to both subjects and sovereigns – its role in mediating relations between them across the globe – helps to explain its continued relevance in these two monarchical empires.

Currently, the issue of freedom of expression poses a significant challenge in Indonesia. Despite being a democratic nation, the scope of people's freedom of expression is largely confined to electoral processes. In order to advance this fundamental right, the implementation of an electronic petition system has been undertaken as a means to facilitate the exercise of freedom of expression. The primary objective of this research is to examine the status quo of freedom of expression in Indonesia and to analyze the pressing need for the adoption of an electronic petition system. This study employs a normative legal approach and conducts comparative analysis with the United Kingdom and Germany, utilizing secondary data sources. The findings of this research demonstrate that Indonesia would greatly benefit from the adoption of an e-democracy system through the implementation of an electronic petition system. The efficacy of such a system has been successfully demonstrated in the United Kingdom and Germany, where it has served as an effective intermediary between the public and the government, ensuring sustained public participation and influencing governmental decision-making processes. In order to implement the electronic petition system in Indonesia, several crucial steps must be undertaken. These steps include the establishment of a Petition Committee, the formulation of Petition Laws, and the official recognition of a dedicated website serving as the electronic petition platform in Indonesia. Additionally, political will and legislative enforcement will be required to ensure the Indonesian Parliament's commitment to act upon the outcomes of these petitions.

The right to petition regulated in Article 63 of the Constitution is qualified as a political right. It may complement entirely different rights through which citizens may exert influence on public authorities. For this right to be exercised the mode of examining petitions had to me specified. The legislator did so by passing the Petitions Act. In turn, regulations introduced to the Commune Self-Government Act that established a Commission for Complaints, Requests and Petitions were to serve as a measure for residents of basic local government units to exercise this right. This study aims to assess the adopted legal regulations from the point of view of their influence on the efficiency of implementation of the right to petition by members of a commune self-governing community. It will point to organizational and procedural measures which when employed may be a source of real problems.

It is a truism that sound and credible elections are a sine qua non for sustainable democracy. The citizens in a society do not only desire a credible system for the selection of their leaders, but also seek functional and unbiased institutional processes to settle election matters. Consequently, election petition remains a viable and reorganized alternative open to any person or party dissatisfied with the conduct of an election to ventilate his or her grievances. Over the years, litigants/petitioners have continued to patronize the election petition tribunals/courts with minimal or no success as most of the petitions ended up being thrown out for non-compliance with the applicable electoral legislations or technicalities. Consequently, this paper analyses the current election petition model in Nigeria with a view to highlighting practices that may be adapted to the regular court process to improve speedy dispensation of justice. The paper adopts a doctrinal methodology which undertakes a comparative study of Nigeria and other relevant foreign jurisdictions.

As much as any other site in the nineteenth century, Francophone Lower Canada saw immense waves of popular petitioning, with petitions against British colonial administration attracting tens of thousands of signatures in the 1820s. The petition against Governor Dalhousie of 1827–28 attracted more than 87,000 names, making it one of the largest mass petitions of the Atlantic world on a per-capita scale for its time. We draw upon new archival evidence that shows the force of local organization in the petition mobilization, and combine this with statistical analyses of a new sample of 1,864 names from the anti-Dalhousie signatory list. We conclude that the Lower Canadian petitioning surge stemmed from emergent linguistic nationalism, expectations of parliamentary democracy, and the mobilization and alliance-building efforts of Patriote leaders in the French-Canadian republican movement. As elsewhere in the nineteenth-century Atlantic, the anti-Dalhousie effort shows social movements harnessing petitions to recruit, mobilize, and build cross-cultural alliances.

The court’s consideration of petitions under Article 165 of the Criminal Procedure Code of the Russian Federation is the most popular and common form of judicial control at the pre-trial stage of a criminal procedure. Decisions on these petitions provide for the observance of public interests to ensure the investigation of a criminal case and the establishment of all legal circumstances and private interests of citizens to protect their constitutional rights and freedoms. This relationship between public and private interests determines special attention to the proof of facts when considering this category of materials since the proof is the basis for making a court decision. This type of judicial control aims at establishing facts that confirm the existence of procedural grounds for the investigative action indicated in the petition and – given the focus of the investigative action on restricting constitutional rights and freedoms – the involvement of the person, the object of this investigative action, in the crime on the fact of which a criminal case has been initiated. In proving, an actual link is to be established between the person concerned and the legal grounds for the requested investigative action. Otherwise, in the absence of facts related to the circumstance in proof, there are no grounds for conducting investigative actions. For the correct proof of facts, the judge must correctly determine all specific facts confirming procedurally sufficient grounds for conducting a specific investigative action and the parties involved, and, based on the results of the verification of the compliance with the requirements of the criminal procedure law when filing a petition and with the grounds for conducting the investigative action indicated in it, make a procedural decision in accordance with the “sufficient reason” evidentiary standard. In order to increase the efficiency of going to court and court’s considering these materials, it is advisable to fix in law the possibility of sending such petitions, supporting materials and the prosecutor’s decision on their validity to the court in electronic form, and of their resolving by the judge without the parties’ participation outside the adversarial procedure. In addition, in order to optimize the specified procedure for considering the petitions of the preliminary investigation body, the judge must have the technical opportunity to promptly receive electronic information regarding the special status of persons that are objects of the petition, ownership of property, cadastral value of real estate, information on declaring persons bankrupt, which excludes executive actions against them. Taking into account the lack of adversariality and the requirement of complying with private and public interests, in order to verify the validity of the investigative action declared in the petition, the judge, if there is this technical opportunity, can establish compliance with the procedure for initiating a criminal case, approval on the petition in relation to certain categories of persons listed in Article 447 of the Criminal Procedure Code of the Russian Federation, the proportionality of the value of the property subject to seizure, the amount of possible property penalties, the correct determination of the composition of the participants in the petition under consideration, and other issues of compliance with the requirements of the criminal procedure law on the petition. In order to prevent arbitrary use of information databases, a special program (including AI-based) should be developed forautomatic control over the correspondence of the requested information to the date of consideration and the circle of persons (property) indicated in the petition. In modern conditions, the introduction of the proposed electronic opportunities for resolving petitions will contribute to the improvement of the criminal procedural proof when the court considers materials in accordance with Article 165 of the Criminal Procedure Code of the Russian Federation and to the greater effectiveness of this type of judicial control in order to ensure citizens’ constitutional rights to judicial protection.

The article examines the structure of judicial control proceedings in the pre-trial investigation. Five stages of this proceeding have been singled out and analyzed: 1) a stage, which consists in a set of procedural actions of an investi-gating judge aimed at resolving the issue of the possibility of judicial control over the relevant appeal of the subjects of criminal proceedings; 2) stage, which consists in a set of procedural actions of the investigating judge, aimed at organizing their consideration; 3) consideration on the merits by the investigating judge of a complaint or petition; 4)decision-making by the investigating judge based on the results of consideration of the petition or complaint; 5) execution of the decision of the investigating judge. The stages and procedural actions of the investigating judge at each stage are investigated. The procedure for consideration of petitions, applications and complaints is proposed, taking into account the case law and the provisions governing the rules of court proceedings. Based on the analysis of case law on the decisions made by investigating judges based on the results of consideration of petitions filed in violation of the rules of jurisdiction, petitions filed by persons who do not have the right to do so or petitions not considered by the investigating judge, the need to determine the grounds for their return in a separate rule of criminal procedural law. Judicial practice on the necessity and possibility of consideration of petitions and / or complaints in the absence of participants in criminal proceedings is analyzed. It is proposed to amend Part 3 of Art. 295-1 of the Criminal Procedure Code of Ukraine, stating it as follows: “The absence of the suspect and defense counsel, who were duly notified of the place and time of the trial, to participate in the petition to extend the pre-trial investigation, does not preclude its consideration.” The opinion expressed in science regarding the need for the victim to participate in the consideration of the petition for the application of a measure of restraint to the suspect was supported and the author’s draft amendments to the CPC in this part were proposed. Emphasis is placed on the peculiarities of the investigator’s consideration of petitions, applications or complaints in the judicial control proceedings in the pre-trial investigation.

Ε-petitions, the digital version of printed petitions, are increasingly being used as complimentary means of nonconfrontational, online citizen mobilization/protest. They attract considerable research interest because they provide (big) data to study e-petitioning and the political and other aspects of socio-spatial issues. E-petition studies lack discussion of ontology, of “what is an e-petition,” implicitly treating e-petitions as “systems-as-a-whole” or, seldom, as relational formations. Acknowledging the foundational role of ontology, Assemblage Thinking (AT) is argued to beget a more judicious approach when e-petitions are employed as research instruments to study the “who-what-when-where-and-how” of a socio-spatial issue and, concurrently, their situated contribution to issue-related decision-making. After presenting the reductionist/essentialist and the nonreductionist/relational approaches to the study of e-petitions and introducing ΑΤ, an assemblage-based framework is proposed that conceptualizes e-petitions as multiplicities comprising assemblages, dynamic compositions emerging from processes of heterogeneous components coming together to serve a purpose. A concomitant methodology is outlined and an illustrative example is offered. The advantages of assemblage-based over reductionist/essentialist approaches for the situated co-analysis of socio-spatial issues and e-petitions are discussed, indicating how they address prominent concerns of the literature, and future research directions are suggested.

abstract: Among the seventeenth-century non-elite, anonymous (or almost anonymous) individuals across England organized their experiences into petition narratives presented at various local Quarter Sessions. This article explores these narrative texts as sources of autobiographical acts. It contends that petitions for redress were sites of autobiographical telling that allow investigation into how non-elite people told their life stories in early modern England. It examines how, in the context of a petition for relief, individuals engaged in strategic acts of autobiographical disclosure for redress, which also had implications for the restoration of their dignity and even their identity.

ABSTRACT The article argues that when Chaucer asked Richard II for leave to appoint a proxy to perform his duties at the London wool quay in 1385, he wrote the petition in his own hand. The evidence is the informal nature of the petition itself, which is short, simply worded, and carelessly written; its form (as a “chamberlain’s bill,” it offered the simplest bureaucratic option for a member of the royal household); and the facts that it is an original, not a bureaucratic copy, and once bore Chaucer’s personal seal; that its spelling of Chaucer’s name as “Geffray” may reflect a personal preference; and that Chaucer was allowed no clerical staff and was expected to keep records in his own hand. Chaucer’s contemporaries wrote more elaborate petitions than this one in their own hands, so the burden of proof lies with those who wish to claim that this petition is the work of a professional scribe.
