Courts of justice plays a very important role in the administration of justice. Almost all countries experience problems in the administration of justice.

R. means Alternative Dispute Resolution, mostly applied to civil cases. When a civil case is instituted in a court of competent jurisdiction, the scenario usually is, that a long time is taken to serve the process, the defendants beat the law and submit their written statement/s after a long delay beyond the permissible statutory period of two months, lawyers and judges do not take any interest in screening out a false and frivolous case at the first hearing of the case under Order X CPC (in fact no such first hearing takes place), they seldom try to shorten the disputed questions of fact and law by application of Orders XI and XII of the CPC and mostly ignore the elaborate procedure of discovery, interrogatories, notice to produce etc. contained in those Orders, the issues of a case are seldom framed following the Code of Civil Procedure, the case takes several years to reach a settlement date and on the date of positive hearing half a dozen or more ready cases are fixed for hearing, resulting in the hearing of none. In the meantime years roll by, presiding judge of a single case is transferred a number of times, witnesses of a single case may be heard by more than one presiding judge, arguments are listened to may be by another presiding judge and judgment may be delivered by a presiding judge who had had no connection with...

...the 11th meeting of the Standing Committee of the Eighth National People's Congress. Regulatory Authorities The Prison Law provides that the State Council judicial administration (Ministry of Justice) supervises all prisons across the country. The Ministry of Justice has a Bureau of Prison Administration that supervises all prisons in the country. In the provinces (municipalities directly under the central government and autonomous regions), offices of justice are responsible for managing prisons in their own jurisdiction through their prison administration arms. Prisons in China are divided into two categories: Prisons incarcerating inmates who have been condemned by courts to a fixed-term sentence, life sentence or death penalty with two years reprieve. Male and female inmates are warded separately, with female wards managed by female law enforcement personnel. Prisons may also be divided into wards for felons and criminals of misdemeanour. Penitentiaries for juvenile delinquents, criminals of minor age who have been condemned by courts to a fixed-term sentence, life sentence or death penalty with two years reprieve. Special protection is extended to juvenile delinquents, with customized procedures in place to cater to their needs. Prison Setup and Staffing The Prison Law provides that the State Council judicial administration approves the establishment, elimination and relocation of prisons in line with historical, economic and natural factors. This provision is designed...

...Courtroom Observation Report Judges can alleviate much of the public dissatisfaction with the judicial branch by paying critical attention to the key elements of procedural fairness: voice, neutrality, respectful treatment, and engendering trust in authorities. Judges must be aware of the dissonance that exists between how they view the legal process and how the public before them view it. While judges should definitely continue to pay attention to creating fair outcomes, they should also tailor their actions, language, and responses to the public’s expectations of procedural fairness. By doing so, these judges will establish themselves as legitimate authorities; substantial research suggests that increased compliance with court orders and decreased recidivism by criminal offenders will result. Procedural fairness also will lessen the difference in how minority populations perceive and react to the courts. Hon. Kevin Burke, Minnesota District Court, Hennepin County, and Hon. Steve Leben, Kansas Court of Appeals “Procedural Fairness: A key ingredient in public satisfaction,” Court Review This observation report has two parts. The first part centers on the four principles of procedural justice: neutrality, respect, trust, and voice. For each principle, we ask a question and request three responses: (a) check which behaviors you observed, (b) describe the judge’s performance on the bench, and (c) score the judge on that principle. We’ve provided a brief description of each principle...

...Managerial Practices Executive Summary Brendan Moaratty CJA/484 June 15, 2015 Gina Craft Managerial Practices Executive Summary Organizational effectiveness is the ability of a particular organization to run as a well-oiled machine that meets goals set in place for success throughout an organization. An organization must work efficiently; therefore obtainable goals must be set within achievable timeframes in order to meet all expectations of the organizations main purpose. This allows an organization to produce productive work with a desired effect throughout the organization without wasteful use of valued assets (Charrier, K. 2007). Organizational effectiveness is imperative when managing each area of criminal justice personnel in a law enforcement capacity, courts, or correctional facility personnel. Each of the settings is different, but the behavior concepts for each department of a law enforcement function must be the same when it comes to managing a department properly and professionally. Organizational effectiveness is where each member of the organization works as a team efficiently and effectively to the best of their ability for mission success. The desired outcome of organizational effectiveness is to utilize all the resources necessary to complete the mission, but at little cost of man hours, allotted time, necessary materials, and energy to the organization as a whole. This entails a productive team to obtain all goals without having an adverse effect on...

...interpretation challenges that they encounter (Hugh). The journal identifies interpretation aspects of the character of David as a reader in order to analyze these roles effectively. David reaction involves execution of the Amalekites because he aims at establishing the truth, which is attained through reading. The journal also describes David as a reader because it evaluates interpretation of the text and other interpretations within the text. The issue of interpretation illustrates that David was a reader because he emphasizes on the truth that is obtained through reading and critical interpretation of texts. The author also describes the readings in the book of Samuel as oath but not judicial as other earlier mentioned stories. This indicates that the character of David as a reader is not only judicial, but oath oriented...

...the dispute (Kyle, 2014). In addition, the move is prudent in instances where the organization is clearly facing the possibility of losing. However, an evaluation of the issue demonstrates that none of those factors are at play. Consequently, Good Grocer should opt for a litigation process in solving the dispute. Although the fact that the injured woman is a media personality would expose the retailer to negative publicity, the organization would eventually win the court based on an examination of the facts of the case. First, the banana in question is still yellow. Consequently, it is highly unlikely for that the banana caused the woman to fall. Second, the lady was wearing high heels. The organization can easily find evidence that demonstrates that women wearing high heels have a lot of difficulties moving from one place to another. The facts involved show that there is a high possibility that the woman tripped over a ribbed rubber mat. As a result, the organization would not be liable for the injuries that she had incurred. In order to be successful in the litigation process, the organization needs to adhere to diligence. First, the legal department will have to investigate the issue. The move will enable it to understand the facts of the case and to spot if there are areas where the organization can be exposed to a judicial process. Second, the in-house attorney should study the American law in order to understand the obligations of the organization to their clients and other...

...responsible for their own actions. If employees do not take control of how they behave or become responsible for their own actions such as knowing and perceiving ones’ own honesty then money may disappear causing the organization to go bankrupt. If a physician or its staff makes false claims against a patient’s insurance it could put the organization as a whole at risk. The healthcare industry is a billion dollar industry and has a potential of becoming a very huge value to the public. Without accountability employees jobs can be lost and can make many employees suffer as well as causing great harm to those that are playing responsible for their own actions. An employee’s accountability can be measured in many ways. They include performance evaluations, checks and balances, assessment and customer satisfaction. According to Wilen (1998), measurement tools will be considered in light of the industry’s unique considerations and...

The authors gratefully acknowledge the assistance of Dr Ben Searle, Macquarie University, in providing an overview of the relevant literature from the field of organisational psychology. Introduction This paper takes up the challenge of talking about privacy in the workplace - a site of potential conflict in which there may be co-existing radically different views on whether workers can or should have any expectations of privacy. As long as there has been employment, employees have been monitored. Nebeker D M & B C Tatum, "The effects of computer monitoring, standards and rewards on work performance, job satisfaction and stress" (1993) 23(7) Journal of Applied Social Psychology 508 at 508. However, in recent years, with an environment of affordable technology, the availability of less easily observable or detectable monitoring devices, and a lack of adequate regulation, there has been an explosion in the use of electronic monitoring and surveillance in the workplace. A recent study by the American Management Association (AMA) found that almost 80% of the largest companies in the US had engaged in some form of electronic surveillance over the previous year. American Management Association, Workplace Monitoring and Surveillance Survey, (New York: 2001). This figure is more than double the rate recorded only five years...
