Controlling the Administrative State

Essays in Honour of Matthew Groves

Key Ideas in Law

This book explores several key ideas relating to the 'principle of legality'. In the United Kingdom, the 'principle of legality' is an interpretive tool applied by courts to legislation that is deemed to be unclear. The term is used as shorthand for the idea that Parliament may only override fundamental legal or constitutional norms using clear legislation. This deceptively simple notion has a rich and complex historical pedigree. Since the end of the twentieth century, a 'breach of the principle of legality' has become a discrete ground of judicial review rooted in the common law. But its status, definition, and reach all remain deeply contested. In recent years, recourse to 'the principle of legality' in public law claims has become increasingly controversial. As the corpus of case law has grown, the application of the 'principle of legality' has been identified by judges, academics, and politicians as both a source of legal uncertainty in its own right, and a vehicle for potential judicial overreach. By building on a rigorous analysis of relevant case law, this book considers the intellectual foundations of 'the principle of legality'. As the analysis unfolds, we will see that there is no singular 'principle of legality' which we can accurately pinpoint. Instead, it makes sense to talk about multiple principles of legality, doing distinct, but related, work. This becomes apparent when we explore the history of the principles of legality in the context of not just public law, but the wider legal system. Moving beyond the historical context, the book explores where and how the principles of legality apply in the contemporary legal system. Subsequent chapters explore the difficulties and uncertainties of determining whether the principles of legality are engaged. Thereafter, attention turns to what norms legality does and does not protect and how courts decide upon this. The final chapter sets the principles of legality in their broader constitutional context. Overall, it will demonstrate that concerns about relating to judicial overreach are overstated. In fact, the reverse is true: the application of the principles of legality do introduce a dimension of legal uncertainty, but ultimately fall short of their constitutional potential.

Key Ideas in Law: The Principle of Legality

Melland Schill Perspectives on International Law

International Organisations, Non-State Actors, and the Formation of Customary International Law

Hart Studies in Constitutional Law

This book articulates and defends a sceptical general account of parliamentary sovereignty.

It challenges the orthodox approach to this fundamental doctrine by making three key heretical claims. First, there are some laws that Parliament cannot make. Second, there are several ways in which primary legislation can be overridden or set aside by institutions other than Parliament. And third, Parliament has the power to bind itself as to the substance of future legislation. All three positions are developed using arguments which depend on existing legal materials and are compatible with the normative underpinnings of the doctrine of parliamentary sovereignty. 

The book combines theoretical and doctrinal analysis. The theoretical part of the book situates Parliament's authority to legislate in the broader context of an examination of constitutional and political authority. It develops a conception of the ways in which competing views on the scope of Parliament's legislative authority are mediated into law. The doctrinal part of the book reconsiders Parliament's legal position. It proposes a novel conception of Parliament's power to bind itself, rooted in the idea of commitments. It defends the existence of a judicial power to impose narrowly conceived freestanding limits on Parliament's law-making authority, rooted in the rule of law. Finally, the book examines the challenges posed to parliamentary sovereignty by both its internal procedures and the devolved legislatures.

Der WuV-Kurs im Öffentlichen Recht unterstützt die eigene Vorbereitung auf die Erste Juristische Staatsprüfung ohne Repetitor. Er wendet sich an Studierende, die „scheinfrei“ sind und sich nunmehr in der Vorbereitung auf das Staatsexamen befinden. In dieser Phase ist es nicht mehr sinnvoll, weiteres Inselwissen anzuhäufen. Es droht ohnehin schon, angesichts der Stofffülle die Übersicht zu verlieren. Von Nöten ist vielmehr eine gezielte Schwerpunktsetzung. Für eine erfolgreiche Vorbereitung auf das Examen ist zudem das Training der Methodik der Fallbearbeitung unabdingbar. Deshalb müssen gutachterliche Falllösungen und systematische Rechtskenntnisse zusammengeführt werden.

This book offers a broad and systematic introduction to the study of miscarriages of justice by defining them and examining the dimensions, forms, and scale of the problem. The work examines the causes in detail with reference to key cases while also exploring official and unofficial responses. The book's discussion of how specific cases and campaigns have acted as drivers for change in relation to policy, practice and legislation aims to minimize future miscarriages of justice. The final chapters of the book apply a comparative approach, comparing the experiences of England and Wales to those of the United States, Canada, Australia and New Zealand and France.

Miscarriages of justice and their causes are an endemic part of criminal justice systems the world over. This book offers a broad and systematic introduction to the study of miscarriages of justice by defining them and examining the dimensions, forms, and scale of the problem. The work examines the causes in detail with reference to key cases while also exploring official and unofficial responses. It presents an evaluation of varied perspectives on recognising and rectifying miscarriages of justice, and considers debates concerning Innocence projects, family campaigns and technical fault in the justice process versus innocence as desirable mechanisms for scrutinising justice flaws. The book’s discussion of how specific cases and campaigns have acted as drivers for change in relation to policy, practice and legislation aims to minimize future miscarriages of justice. The final chapters of the book apply a comparative approach, comparing the experiences of England and Wales to those of the United States, Canada, Australia and New Zealand and France, thus providing an international perspective on the subject.This book will be an essential reference for students, researchers, practitioners and policy-makers working in the area of criminal justice.

Die zum Schema gewordene Vierteilung der Kriterien für die Gesetzesauslegung in Wortlaut, System, Absicht des Gesetzgebers und objektiven Gesetzeszweck stellt auf eine Stufe, was zu unterschiedlichen Ebenen gehört: Wortlaut und Gesetzgebungszusammenhang sind lediglich Hilfsmittel für die Erkenntnis von gesetzgeberischer Intention oder objektivem Zweck des Gesetzes. Entstanden ist die heute populäre Vierteilung aus einer unzulässigen Weiterbildung der Lehre von Savigny und älterer Vorstellungen, in der es den Widerspruch von gesetzgeberischem Ziel und objektivem Gesetzeszweck noch gar nicht geben konnte. Der Konflikt zwischen diesen beiden Auslegungsmustern ist unausweichlich, durch die Vertragsauslegung aber schon lange vorentschieden worden.

This book considers the derivative action, an important corporate governance tool which is commonly considered to serve two basic functions, i.e., enabling shareholders to gain redress for a wrong done to their company and deterring potential breaches of directors’ fiduciary duties. This book critically examines the derivative action from theoretical, evolutionary, and comparative perspectives. It considers how controversial issues such as locus standi, demand requirements, indemnity cost orders, information asymmetry and res judicata are approached in selected civil law countries as well as throughout the Commonwealth. The book also assesses whether derivative litigation could fulfill a similar role in China, which is one of the most rapidly developing economies in the world, yet lacks adequate corporate governance mechanisms. The ultimate aim discussed in the book is how to establish a remedial mechanism which makes derivative actions more accessible and consistent, while maintainingthe balance between corporate efficiency and protecting minority shareholders’ interests. Lastly, based on different approaches in the latest reforming infrastructure, it explores whether there is a general converging trend for derivative actions between the two major legal systems.

Improved usage of forensic science evidence by legal practitioners is essential to reduce miscarriages of justice. This book presents critical insights into contemporary issues of forensic proof from a broad perspective. Using DNA and fingerprint evidence, the authors compare and contrast the science of forensics and how it is communicated to judges, juries, and counsel. With authors from Australia, the UK, and the U.S., the book also addresses how these different countries address science in the courtroom. This resource is ideal for all those who work in forensic capacities, including those scientists who increasingly are called to testify abroad.

This open access book establishes an interpretative framework by means of a functionalist-originalist reading of EU law and comparative federalism, in particular US constitutional law. 

The EU is undergoing one of the most profound structural crises of its history, relating to the rule of law and fundamental rights. The author conceptualises the existential question in terms of ontology, constitutional legitimacy, doctrine and institutional process. By providing the first conceptual methodology (based on comparative federalism and focusing on law and rights) the book develops proposals which can be used to address the EU's current constitutional challenges.
