The President is responsible for enacting and enforcing the laws written by Congress and appoints the heads of the federal agencies.

Article III of the Constitution, which establishes the Judicial Branch, leaves Congress significant discretion to determine the shape and structure of the federal judiciary. Even the number of Supreme Court Justices is left to Congress – at times there have been as few as six, while the current number (nine, with one Chief Justice and eight Associate Justices) has only been in place since 1869. The Constitution also grants Congress the power to establish courts inferior to the Supreme Court, and to that end Congress has established the United States district courts, which try most federal cases, and 13 United States courts of appeals, which review appealed district court cases. [ https://www.whitehouse.gov/our-government/judicial-branch ] The Judiciary explains and applies the laws. This branch does this by hearing and eventually making decisions on various legal cases. The Judicial Branch is in charge of the court system. There are three different kinds of courts found in the federal court system. The lowest level is the district courts. The 2nd level is the court of appeals. The top level is the Supreme Court. Did you know: 1. The Supreme Court was set up by the Constitution. 2. The Supreme...

...system that operates and helps maintain rights and protection of the citizens. This same system also punishes those who violate the laws and policies set forth by the government. This system is the criminal justice system. As a previous subject in this course, there are three main branches of government, executive, legislative, and judicial, play a major role in the criminal justice policy process. The executives are the advocates of policies and budgets to implement these policies; legislatures create the policies and laws; and judicial officials are those who handle those in violation of these policies. Within the criminal justice system is law enforcement (e.g., police officers), court systems (e.g., judicial officials), and correction (e.g., jails and prisons). Each sector plays a major role in the enforcement of the law, protection of rights, and to ensure that justice is for everyone. The main focus of this paper is police officers. Police officers carry many roles and responsibilities. “Police agencies are those government agencies that have some responsibility for enforcing the law and providing protection to our local communities” (Marion & Oliver, 2012, p. 304). In this paper the subject to discuss is community policing. What is Community Policing? Community policing can be defined as the action taken by law enforcement officers to mend relationships between the community and the police by providing specific services throughout the communities.

All over the word, we see signs and warning labels used to prevent smoking and protect none-smokers from the dangers of second-hand smoke. Our government continues to look for ways to ban smoking and save lives, therefore we will continue to trust our legislative, judicial, and executive branch to create, enforce and evaluate new laws daily. For starters, we will begin with the legislative. This branch has the important role of creating and implanting new laws. This is done through Congress, the Senate and the House of Representatives.

I understand the process of the fact-finding techniques and how to apply them when it comes to system design in this paper I’m going to cover how the interview process, documentation review, general observation and surveys and questionnaires and how they play a part in system design. The interview process also includes conducting surveys so this is a crucial step. This is where you break it down into three different levels first level being the executive branch that all the people that their title has C in it. Second level would be all the managers and supervisors. The third would be the everyday user. You must have an understanding that each of these levels are going do require different functions on a day-to-day basis. the executive branch only wants to look at reports and see the bottom line of a company, The second level wants to see both up and down making sure that the people that are working for them are doing the job right and there meeting the expectations of the executives, and the everyday user wants to make sure that there meeting the companies goals.

...Law Opinion Paper Introduction to Criminal Court System CJS/220 Instructor: XXXXXXXX Law Opinion Paper: The relationship between the common law and the legislature. The American common law system had originally been mirrored from medieval England, when criminals and civil laws were decided by judges based according to biblical prophecies as well as where they presided from. Now laws are created, enforced and micromanaged by three legislative branches of government. The reasoning for each branch having specific responsibilities is so that no one branch is able to corrupt the “checks and balances” system that was based according to the principals written in The United States Constitution and other important legal documents. The Legal System The United States government is overseen and governed by laws that were created by public officials. There are three branches of government: * The Legislative Branch of government (state or federal) enacts a group laws that are enacted by public officials. * Once the laws are enacted then they are enforced by The Executive Branch which controls the law enforcement agencies. * The Judicial Branch makes sure that those enacted laws serves a balanced purpose and are legally as well as ethically fair to all in serving their purpose. The American legal system today was conceived based from two major concepts that originally came from the medieval England’s common laws: Precedent and Codification...

...Executive Power and the Constitution Michael Gray HIS 303: The American Constitution Professor Ginger Jarvis November 29, 2012 Executive Power and the Constitution “The Constitution has never greatly bothered any wartime president,” wrote Francis Biddle, Attorney General during World War II, in his memoirs (Smith, 1999, pg.24). Biddle’s comment was in reflection on President Franklin Delano Roosevelt’s decision to relocate Japanese-Americans. An examination of American history reveals the Constitution does not appear to bother president during periods of national survival. In fact, Presidents seize crisis in domestic and foreign affairs as the opportunity to expand executive power. This paper provides a brief history on powers in the Constitution, examines use of executive power in domestic and foreign affairs, and concludes with an argument on how the issue should be interpreted. Framers of the Constitution believed separation of powers and a system of checks and balances would keep one branch of government from having more power then the others. Noah Feldman (2006) writes “nothing is more basic to the operation of a constitutional government than the way it allocates power” (Our Presidential Era, para.2). Constitutional Framers created three separate branches of government independent of each other. According to Cornell University Law School (2012), the first three articles of the “Constitution outlines the branches of the U.S. Government...

The major limitations are as the followings: 1. Most of the respondents are not encourage to our survey, so a big portion of response error has been occurred at the initial stage. 2. No pre-contact with the employees have been ensured prior to the survey, which was necessary. 3. Relevant papers and documents were not available sufficiently because of confidentiality. In many case, up to date information is not available. The lack of knowledge about the sources of secondary data is also a limitation of this study. 4.
