"Unpublished Opinions" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2008-11-13 11:46:28

Every year in 1L Legal Research we discuss unpublished opinions very quickly and it seems that every year I have an upperclassmen who kind of knows about it but isn't very clear on them. HERE is an excellent blog post from the Law Librarian Blog discussing unpublished opinions in much more detail than we go into in Legal Research and what the book at least the version we are currently using goes into. Below are a couple of excerpts:Q: What specifically are we talking about when we say “unpublished opinions”?A: “Unpublished opinions” refers to court opinions that the court withholds from formal publication in the official reporter. In the era before official reporters and universal publication of opinions from about the thirteenth century to the start of the twentieth century many court opinions went unpublished. These opinions could still be brought to the court’s attention though as evidence of the common law and precedent. Then for much of the twentieth century commercial publishers endeavored to publish every appellate opinion which proved expensive both from the perspective of the judicial time investment in writing opinions and in the storing indexing and researching those opinions. So an attempt was made to limit those expenses by creating a class of opinions that would be designated “unpublished.” The federal circuit courts for example enacted rules limiting the citation of these unpublished opinions and (in most circuits) limiting their precedential value. Q: What about the idea that some cases make law and should be published and other cases which only apply law need not be published?A: That notion is plainly mistaken. Every case even one exactly the same as a prior case adds to the body of precedent. It tells the reader that the rule announced is a current one a robust one and one that was not the product of an errant judge or panel. It is these “piles” of cases as Karl Llewellyn called them that make up the common law. But most cases differ from other cases in at least some small way and it is the decision as to whether these differences change the outcome that tells us the contours of the law. It is this process of repeated application of the law that Lord Coke viewed as giving weight and ever greater precision to the law. All decisions have some precedential value in establishing the state of the law. In addition the idea that a court can determine at the time of decision (or under the present system at the time of filing) whether a case would be of precedential value in a future case makes no sense. The value of court’s decision as precedent is a question for a later court considering whether to apply distinguish or overrule the precedent. And on top of these jurisprudential problems there is a practical problem that this ex ante determination hasn’t worked very well in practice. Courts frequently issue unpublished opinions in cases that are not the easy cases involving the mere application of the law cases. Many such opinions contain concurrences or dissents are heard by en banc panels and are reversed on appeal or upheld by opinions that are dissented from. All of which suggests that these are far from the easy cases and that these are decisions that expand or contract the law and ought to be precedent.

"No Income, Can I Still Get a Credit Card?" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-11-27 19:16:45

Heck yes even in these days of tightening ascribe if you are a college student even if you undergo tens of thousands of dollars of student loan debt and no assets you can get a pre-approved credit card. A related scandal is that the colleges act money from the lenders for exclusive rights to push their particular mark of credit card on the captive student population. Now if you or I apply while lacking any income we would be laughed out of the booth. But many of the ascribe separate companies set up booths on campus to sign up willing 18 year olds. Reminds me of a medicate pusher giving fee samples. But that may be slanderous to the drug pusher. In the article linked above a creditor protests that they circulate all sorts of educational materials so that the victims. I mean the students will understand what they are getting into. Of course many students do not and bankruptcies and even suicides prove. Younger people are more prone to despair and do not see the way out of a situation that seems hopeless. $10,000 of credit card debt may not seem overwhelming but couple it with a six figure student loan balance and no job on graduation and it could be bleak indeed. One of my big issues with the credit separate companies is this:  they have a business model of lending money where profitability is based on the customer NOT paying according to the terms of the ascribe card contract. All those zero percent balance assign offers how do they make money? Well populate miss a payment and then default interest rate late fees et cetera kick in. Gee what are the odds a student with no income and no assets might desire a payment? Some consumer advocates as quoted in Business Week propose as a solution more government regulation. My remedy? Before they can acquire anything make the credit card companies prove to a jury that the student understood all the consequences of signing up. And a signed contract on any pre-approved offer would be inadmissible as evidence. Also the burden would be on the ascribe separate affiliate to prove how the student was going to repay the ascribe without borrowing the money somewhere else. There is too much inaccurate information about bankruptcy online. Our nationwide network of experienced consumer bankruptcy attorneys are here to help. When you're create from raw material for one-on-one back up with your problem.

"University of Masaryk, the Faculty of Law" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-11-03 13:19:39

It's a displace for very specialized formal texts and articles related to law justice and everything around and the main focus of this communicate at the same time. Of course my discriminate is I can just poorly handle formal writing especially in this grow of science. However. I promise I'll do my beat and alter use of the English law grammar cram that I'm going to study at college. It's actually a book chance for populate whose curiosity wants to see a guy with no further education in English formal writing get better at this issue from month to month. I evaluate at least some improvement in two years so there's still plenty of time. There's no point in making a fool of myself so I'm going to go away with relatively easy stuff that doesn't require professional knowledge. I wish you're gonna undergo fun though! Allright let's get approve to the original topic. The Faculty of Law in Brno hasn't surprisingly always been my goal. I used to prefer economics and studying monetary systems. However no one including me knows why I switched the future economical studies for law. The cerebrate could be I got into a sort of relationship with law because my mom is an attorney. It would be pathetic to see the only reason in that. The "relationship" evolved over time from just watching and observing my mom's job to active reading and discussing about justice problems. And that's the inform when I decided to go to law school. The decision was the easier part of my intention but making the dream come true was the real battle I had to get ready for! First of all. I filled out the application forms and sent it to all law colleges in the Czech Republic and waited for their responses with invitation forms. First came the invitation cards from Brno and Prague the two most prestigeous law colleges. I was asked to go over and bring home the bacon out the admitting tests. I did so and then waited nervously for the results. They were good. I was accepted to both schools so I decided to contradict the invitations of the two other law colleges that are supposed not to be so good. And then came the worst thing - the decision whether to go the path of my mom and be the modern well-equipped and quickly developing college in Brno or the other school in Prague which is on contrary very conservative and has built great reputation in the world over centuries. I asked a few populate who are engaged in law to excite me for the final decision and after re-thinking the dilemma again (which took incredibly long). I picked Brno! I comfort don't regret it (hopefully. I never will). The first semester starts on September 24th. I undergo approximately a month to acquire all neccessary things... I'm proud to say I've coped with the most important one already - I found an apartment:)!

Hence cultivating the art of ‘intelligent’ listening sifting the grain from the chaff counselling negotiating and writing/drafting are absolutely vital for a successful lawyer. The be will go with experience. This is a profession where family connections still matter. Reputation is what clients go by in the legal profession and that has to be earned. It rarely comes easy or abstain. Employment OpportunitiesSo far the usual visualise we have of lawyers in India is that of an individual advocate practising his profession from small domiciliate offices and crowded cubicles and rooms – grandly called “chambers” – attached to various courts.

The one-man legal practitioner combines act appearances in the day with client meetings and legal drafting in the evenings.

Multi-crore suits have changed the very complexion of the game making corporate law a popular and lucrative go option. And with foreign law firms moving into India salaries undergo begun to shoot upwards. Demand for lawyers with experience in securities and transactions is growing in harmonise to changes in the global marketplace. While till some time ago only study companies transacted international business even small players are now involved in foreign transactions necessitating the services of corporate lawyers who are well-versed with International law. In fact with fit ventures and foreign collaborations coming in the be for drawing up contracts and interpreting statutes and statutory provisions would change magnitude considerably. Contract law is gaining importance thanks to increased private sector participation and liberalisation. Securities and banking laws are also gaining importance with the advent of e-commerce.
