I'm a lawyer, so I'm the most qualified person in this entire board to answer this question for my country.
Is roman the best people in the legality of the world of lawyers in brazil
Excuse me ma'am? I don't get what you are trying to say
Is roman the best people in the legality of the world of lawyers in brazil? Yes or no???? I thought you could answer any questiones????
What type of law? Are you a prosecutor/defense attorney or more corporate?
Attorney is the more appropriate American term I suppose. I work with family law at the moment: divorces, inheritance, child support etc.
In other words, I hear peoples' stories and write a petition to a judge. That's basically my job.
Y-yes...? I guess?
>divorces, inheritance, child support etc.
Is it a sad line of work? I imagine you’ve got to be dealing with people going through a brutal point in their lives. Or do you not have to handle the human focused part of it?
It can get pretty sad at times, especially when there's children involved. Parents often fight over them, and the child often feels like it has to choose one parent over the other. We try to avoid this as best as we can though. And yes, I do have to deal with the human part the all the way through. Judges will hold court hearings with both parties and it can get a bit traumatic at times because they have to face each other.
Do you like doing it? Do you imagine staying in this career?
I don't like it and I plan on doing what every other law graduate here does: become a government employee.
Good salary, gibs, career progression and the best part: you can't be fired. Bad part: it's very hard to pass the exams and the competition is extreme since everyone else wants the same thing. If I manage to do so I could switch sides and work in a court instead of wageslaving in a law firm.
wtf why does israelite law control the oceans
Mare liberum in a nutshell
How can you try in front of a jury of my peers when I have no peers?
Trash
This is incorrect. We have Common Law inherited from the Brits. Until the late 80s, people can petition to have their cases heard in the UK. We do have special Shariah law for Muslims but only regarding marriage/divorce, banking/insurance, halal food and inheritance.
we have a moronic third verdict that is only ever employed to let off rapists and paedophiles
>we have a moronic third verdict
What’s the other two? Besides the jury obviously, who issues each one?
no, I'm referring to verdicts that the jury can give
>guilty
>not guilty
>not proven (i.e we know he did it but the prosecution didn't do their fricking jobs properly)
decision doesn't have to be unanimous either, only a majority
Why not just declare a mistrial in that case and redo it if the jury isn’t convinced one way or the other?
the prosecution being shit at gathering evidence (which must be corroborated) doesn't necessarily mean the trial was invalid, I think mistrial can have an alternative meaning in the US but here it strictly refers to an error in how the trial is conducted
In the United States, a mistrial can refer to the jury failing to reach a verdict, but I don't think the prosecution failing to present its case well enough would qualify. If the prosecution fricks up, that's on them.
I thought this was the circumcision map before opening lol
It was supposed to be a civil law system but unelected supreme court judges got the power to legislate through "interpretations"
Same here pretty much, although for us it mostly ended up happening because Congress is so deadlocked with the requirements to pass serious legislation being so high (60/100 votes in the Senate) both parties have basically given up on legislating and try to do everything through appointing judges and passing executive orders whenever they’re in power then whining when the other party does it when they’re out of power.
wtf is chilean law?
>The Civil Code of the Republic of Chile (Código Civil de la República de Chile, also referred to as the Code of Bello) is the work of jurist and legislator Andrés Bello. After several years of individual work (though officially presented as the work of multiple Congress commissions), Bello delivered a complete project of the Code on November 22, 1855, which was sent to Congress by President Manuel Montt, preceded by a foreword by Bello himself. Congress passed the Civil Code into law on December 14, 1855. It then came into force on January 1, 1857. Although it has been the object of numerous alterations, the Code has been kept in force since then.
>Traditionally, the Napoleonic Code has been considered the main source of inspiration for the Chilean Code. However, this is true only with regard to the law of obligations and the law of things (except for principle of abstraction), while it is not true at all in the matters of family and successions.
>The indisputable main source of the Civil Code is the Siete Partidas (Seven-Part Code) of King Alfonso X, perhaps the pinnacle of Spanish ius commune. For instance, in relating the acquisition of property, the code makes a clear distinction between the titles and the actual acquisition of property, similarly to the Roman Law and the German Bürgerliches Gesetzbuch.
>The traditional Spanish law is also manifested strongly in the matter of successions. This is true notwithstanding the important modernisations made by the Code, such as eliminating the preference for the males in the adjudication of the estate, the end of mayorazgos (the adjudication of the whole estate to the elder male son) and the adoption of a rule against successive usufructs.
>Similarly, it adopted the Canonical Law provisions regarding marriage.
>The Code made important changes, inspired by the examples of European Codes in place or in preparation. Regarding the real estate, the Code was inspired by the old German registry system, adapting it to the necessities of the post-colonial economy. It was the first Civil Code containing specific provisions regarding the legal persons systematically.
>The Code based its method of interpretation on the Louisiana Code creating a system original to its era.
>Although the Napoleonic Code influenced the Chilean Code largely regarding the law of obligations, this influence is in no case a mere transcription. For instance, while the French Code's final book is "On Contracts", the Chilean Code's last book, second title, is "On the declarations of will", comprising a general theory of contract.
>The Chilean Code is of clear neoclassic inspiration. Each institution is introduced through an axiom and then the articles or sections cite examples or consequences of the axiom with a didactic purpose.
the legal system here is not only napoleonic.
Includes spanish medieval gothic law, the siete partidas (a re-introduction of roman law in 13th century spain), la novísima compilación, roman law, french law, austrian law, canon law and some things from the two sicilies
