Recommend a few American legal movie, by the way look at the jury

Morning to see Chen Youxi's lawyer found micro-blog, he also believes that, once the jury, miscarriages of justice will be greatly reduced.

I told the jury is very interested in, then asked the Lawyer Chen has special article or speech, Chen law recommended I read Lee Xiao Lin law about jury paper. -- however, the jury's interest, in addition to their own thinking in the judicial practice, is derived from the Li Xiaolin lawyers on the jury's point of view, this is the research direction -- lawyer Li PhD thesis, we investigate the problem of one also usually. Lawyer Li has always stressed that, if we draw lessons from the common law system, the jury system, the miscarriages of justice will be greatly reduced.

I am, is not always agree, or say, skeptical. My reason is, Chinese people lack the spirit of independence, lack of impartiality, a considerable part of the onlooker mentality. In a sense of justice Chinese and responsible people, the removal of a considerable part of criminal defense lawyer, the other, I judge from the total, is not much. -- like the government below the provincial vertical management, you see several departments vertical management, with local interests cut? Not or roll in the people around the world's hometown.

The trial jury, mostly as a mere formality. Twenty or thirty a jury case I handled, I have the impression that only two jurors said two seemingly stern but do not ache not to itch. This certainly not.

Later, see the old urchin path to Chen Youxi's message, said"In fact, the functional design of jury without innovation, nor how profound, legal fiction reading John Grisham will be crystal clear."

Fortunately, not too busy in the afternoon, to search John Grisham, and then out to his film adaptation of the novel. By the way, and found out the film, together with. If you have time, one by one, an entertainment, two have a look inside the description on the jury system. (I this blog, from the east to the west, pull, and several times to criticize me, alas, is not this, think of where to write where.)

The following movies from Wei Yanliang (PhD Peking University law student) recommendation.

1, "mystery" is very strong:The film is based onJohnGerrish HanTomThe adaptation of the novel, film is neither large nor dazzling scenes of computer special effects, more is the court debate and Discussion on USA southern racism. Of course the most attractive is the law between the morality, justice and human balance and choice. The film by the well-known Hollywood actress Sandra Bullock and starred in the "Sahara", "the Dezhou Chainsaw Massacre 4" and other well-known film starring guy Matthew McConnel. In addition, starred in "pulp fiction", "the negotiator" and "Star Wars" and other films of Samuel · L · Jackson starred in the film, the Carle angle. As one of Hollywood's most powerful black actor, Samuel's performance is the very place.

2, "Harry war":An ordinary citizen, facing the tax bureau illegally imposed an accident, to defend his house is not destroyed, in no one to turn to, with the constitution as the basis, take up arms against violence, mechanism. And through his days of fighting and the power of the media, the The case is entirely cleared. The law, not only the text, but combine the practice and experience of the body. In modern countries, perhaps only the constitution has "no certificate validity since Ming". All other laws and regulations, must stand in the citizen right eyes, accept and examine the illegal. Therefore, the Anglo American "constitutional review" became the most powerful weapon. The legislature, the administrative organ, may make the unconstitutional act, which requires the unconstitutional review power. The law, are not always right. The true spirit of rule of law, is to allow citizens to saying "no authority" (of course in safeguarding the rights of citizens sense). If, a law that does not allow people to say "no", but stressed that comply and obey, then the law can only be "evil law" -- after all, law, who also worked out -- in this sense, Thoreau wrote his name on the political discourse "civil disobedience", to prove citizen the right of resistance.

3, "the death of a president":Analysis of President Roh Moo-hyun Dutch act of inner struggle process, revealing the code law system, for Roh Moo-hyun, Chen Shuibian "highest" leaders of the "common sense" to determine its own destiny, and despair and helplessness for local law. The film, the rule of law of the Republic of Korea revolution may be sounded a global best jury system and case law system.

4, "civilians" of justice:The Americans shot record hidden in the bottom of society, beggars, murderers, robbers, gangsters, occasionally in the jury, touched by the trust and the trust system, and conscience, forever buried defects of humanity and life, bright display all the best people, with the help of common sense they hated the rich and powerful, the defendant, getting rid of injustice. The movie, shall ever American cultural conquest, the Islamic world, Buddhist world, scientific world's most powerful weapon, is a precursor to Kang Youwei, Sun Zhongshan's pursuit of the "world" the upcoming.
