Dunlap M: Abridgment Of Elementary Law

Abridgment Of Elementary Law

Embodying The General Principles, Rules And Definitions Of Law (1905)

Cornerstone on...

Inquests and inquiries form a distinct area of law in which the aim of the tribunal is to discover what happened, rather than who is right, wrong, or at fault. Cornerstone on Inquests and Inquiries provides an accessible, go-to guide to this area of practice, useful for both practitioners and parties involved. It looks at the field as a whole, acknowledging the commonalities between inquests and public inquiries, and providing a practical approach to each. The book also covers the field of parliamentary inquiries.

Cornerstone on Inquests and Inquiries

FROM THE SUNDAY TIMESBESTSELLING AUTHOR OF MONEY: A USER'S GUIDEWe vow for richer for poorer. We sacrifice for our children, we give back to our parents. Because in true love and family matters, money's irrelevant and it would be terrible to suggest otherwise. Right?So why - in the privacy of the therapy room - does money emerge as one of the biggest causes of tension for modern couples? Why is it cited as the major factor in family estrangement between parents, children, and siblings? Why is there a trend for the 'Bank of Mum and Dad' to go to court to retrieve loans they regret handing over?In MONEY: A USER'S GUIDE, Laura showed us how to save into a pension and understand investment. This time, she delves into the really complex stuff - a non-judgemental examination of whether there is a "right" way to share our money with those we love, and what everyone else does behind closed doors. A book that none of us want to admit we need.How do you decide who picks up the bill, or what goes in the joint account? Is your partner being generous or controlling? Is this house mine if your parents paid most of the deposit? How much are you prepared to spend to have a baby? When should we give money to our kids, our mum and dad, our siblings, our community? Should they pay us back? What does everyone else do? Why don't we know? And why does it feel so agonisingly awkward to ask?This is a book of personal finance advice told through real stories about other people's modern money and relationship dilemmas.Laura speaks to financial advisers and wealth managers, marriage counsellors and matchmakers, philosophers, religious leaders, funeral directors and divorce lawyers, to get to the bottom of the questions that can be much more fundamental to our wealth and happiness than where to put our savings.

The Modern Money Questions That Could Save Your Relationships

Yours or Mine?

The Nigerian court system represents one of the most fascinating and complex legal frameworks in the world, a reflection of the nation's cultural diversity, colonial history, and religious plurality. At its core lies a hybrid legal system that integrates English common law, Sharia law, and customary law. Each of these components serves as a testament to Nigeria's unique journey through history, governance, and the administration of justice.

This book, Understanding the Nigerian Court System, delves into the intricate layers of Nigeria's legal heritage. The 1999 Constitution stands as the supreme law of the land, unifying the nation's diverse legal traditions under a single framework while upholding fundamental rights and freedoms such as the right to life, freedom of expression, and freedom of religion. Yet, beneath this constitutional umbrella, the interplay of English common law, Sharia law, and customary law shapes the daily lives of millions of Nigerians.

Freeing ourselves from the top-down control of tech oligarchs Coded power is social control—power over other people’s relationships. This can be seen today in the top-down control over data exerted by tech oligarchs—billionaires like Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg. DOGE’s takeover of key government institutions early in the second Trump administration was a particularly blatant example of an attempt to exercise coded power by tapping into critical information systems of government. In this book, Co-Pierre Georg and Katharina Pistor call for empowering data producers—that is, all of us who use AI and search engines, or post on social media—rather than those who control proprietary data infrastructures. Georg, an economist, and Pistor, a legal scholar, explain that coded power emerges when some assert power over the fabric that shapes society. Unchecked, it penetrates deeply into social relationships in order to advance the interests of the coders—the oligarchs—and their clients. Legal coded power goes back centuries. Digital coded power and its effect on our society have become apparent only recently. It is exercised as despotic power imposed by the will of the coders to deny data producers the right to self-determination. Choices about digital technology made in the past, Georg and Pistor argue, were often driven by libertarian ideology rather than technological inevitability. They propose an alternative, decentralized structure, aided by the blockchain and new privacy-enhancing technologies, in which data control is assumed jointly by data creators—and data sharing is determined by creators’ willingness to do so rather than the dictates of digital despots.

Why do organizations keep causing harm? And how do we cure toxic cultures? "A timely, rigorous, and deeply unsettling book."—Amy C. Edmondson, Novartis Professor of Leadership and Management, Harvard Business School, and author of The Fearless Organization Not a week goes by with out yet another major organizational scandal: Open AI’s agents going rogue, Volkswagen’s emissions cheating, Boeing’s persistent safety issues, endemic police misconduct at the Oakland PD, and sexual abuse at yet another Roman Catholic Church. So why do do organizations keep causing these harms? Benjamin van Rooij and Nicholas Lord argue that to truly understand and address the impacts of dysfunctional organizations we must look beyond leadership and understand the deeper problems in the organization itself. To do so, Toxic uses dozens of in-depth case studies to connect the dots between various scandals and illustrate the deeper toxic patterns within organizations that lead to them. Each chapter recounts compelling stories of individuals caught within these toxic systems and addresses urgent societal challenges such as environmental degradation, the opioid epidemic, the harms of social media, and police abuse. Stories include:<ul><li>Facebook sought to grow from 1 billion to 5 billion users, leading it to enter Myanmar’s volatile ethnic context without having the knowledge or capacity to do proper content moderation, and thus contributing to genocide.</li><li>Don Parus, a BP engineer made an all-out effort to warn company leaders to invest in safety, just months before a major explosion killed fiteen and injured hundreds at its Texas City Refinery.</li><li>Keith Batt, a rookie at the Oakland Police Department, was made to witness, condone and participate in falsifying arrest records, planting evidence, and even in unsanctioned violence, all within two weeks on the job.</li></ul>Revealing, accessible, engaging, and unsettling, Toxic breaks down the core characteristics of toxic organizations and shows readers how to recognize and address toxicity in their everyday lives.

Are you paying more taxes than you have to? The IRS is not going to tell you about a deduction you failed to take, and your accountant is not likely to take the time to ask you about every deduction you’re entitled to. It’s up to you. The savings can be tremendous.

Over the last two decades, Pakistan has seen major legislative changes in the area of gender-based violence. This book explores the impact and ongoing influence of these changes. A frequent refrain in political and social commentary in Pakistan is that these laws, while transformative on paper, have not translated to actual change in the lives of women and girls because of poor implementation. Through analysis of court cases, data on criminal proceedings, and interviews with activists and survivors, this book demonstrates how the impact of progressive laws is influenced by entrenched social norms and structural flaws in state institutions, especially the criminal justice system. Sara Malkani sheds light on limitations of the formal justice system while showing how law reform can create openings for activists to pursue gender justice.

Die Washingtoner Prinzipien von 1998, fordern die Signatarstaaten zu "gerechten und fairen Lösungen" im Umgang mit "NS-Raubkunst" auf. Das Vereinigte Königreich setzte diesen Appell im Jahr 2000 mit Einrichtung des "Spoliation Advisory Panel" (SAP) um, das seither einen Streitbeilegungsmechanismus bietet, um auf die Ansprüche Berechtigter zu reagieren. Dieser Band nimmt die 22 Empfehlungen in den Blick, die das Panel bislang ausgesprochen hat. Die Entscheidungen werden vor dem Hintergrund der englischen Rechtstradition und -praxis sowie der historischen Rolle des Vereinigten Königreichs analysiert, systematisiert und einem abstrakten Regelwerk zugeführt. Die so sichtbar gemachte Entscheidungslinie des SAP kann als Diskussions- und Vergleichsgrundlage für die Restitutionspraxen anderer Staaten herangezogen werden.

"Fair and just?"

This 250th Anniversary Edition of With Justice for Some: Politically Charged Criminal Trials in the Early 20th Century That Helped Shape Today's America compares our fragile democracy under threat in 2026 to the context of headline-grabbing criminal trials from the early 1900s. Pearlman's book opens with a remarkable admission by former FBI Chief James Comey in a speech on Lincoln's birthday in February 2015: "All of us in law enforcement must be honest enough to acknowledge that much of our history is not pretty. At many points in American history, law enforcement enforced the status quo . . . that was often brutally unfair to disfavored groups." He invited all Americans to re-examine our "cultural inheritance" with fresh eyes. That is what Pearlman's book seeks to do as the second Trump administration threatens the future of our democratic republic. She reaches out to readers on both sides of the current political divide in hopes we can all gain a better understanding of the extent cultural bias has permeated the fabric of our nation by revisiting the country a century and more ago under white supremacist control. As the Trump administration seeks to dismantle our democracy, Pearlman offers readers a better premise from which to move forward as a nation than the whitewashed history so many of us were taught in school and the government is seeking to forcefeed us today. AUTHOR'S Note to reviewers:Why now for a second edition of With Justice for Some? In 2017, the inaugural year of Trump's presidency, the first edition of this book focused on what we could learn as a democracy from the context of headline events in the early 20th century. Both then and nine years ago the nation exhibited ominous fracture lines. The 20th century began with super-wealthy robber barons controlling an economy fueled by an influx of immigrant labor. White supremacists added "hyphenated-Americans" from select parts of the world to the minorities and women they already treated as second-class citizens. But the Gilded Age gave way to the Progressive Era in the early 20th century, followed by the Roaring Twenties and the New Deal. Much has transpired since 2017 to make today's situation more dire than when an oligarchy controlled the nation in 1900.From day one of Trump's second term his administration openly began implementing Project 2025 and transforming our democratic republic into a dictatorship built in no small part on the support of white supremacists. This year also marks the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence. The American Revolution created one country from separate colonies; the Civil War preserved it as one nation. Our current circumstances present what many of us see as another existential threat to our democracy. This second edition of With Justice for Some is my effort to join those emphasizing the urgent need to safeguard the future of our government "of the people, by the people, for the people."
