JUSTICE FOR ALL ACT OF 2004 The federal Justice For All Act of 2004 (PL 108-405) enhances protections for victims of federal crimes and increases federal resources available to state and local governments to combat crime. Title I of the act, the "Scott Campbell, Stephanie Roper, Wendy Preston, Louarna Gillis, and Nila Lynn Crime Victims' Rights Act," requires courts to ensure that crime victims are afforded the rights the act prescribes. It specifies that a crime victim, his lawful representative, or the attorney for the government may assert the rights in U. S. District Court. If the requested relief is denied, the movant may petition the court of appeals for a writ of mandamus, which the appeals court must decide within 72 hours. A court's failure to afford a crime victim his rights is not grounds for a new trial, but a victim can move to reopen a plea or a sentence on that basis. The act does not authorize a cause of action for damages or create, enlarge, or imply any duty or obligation to any victim or other person for any breach by federal government officers or employees (§ 102). The act appropriates $ 7 million for fiscal year 2005 and $ 11 million each for fiscal years 2006-2009, in part, for the support of state organizations that enforce crime victims' rights and provide legal counsel and support services. The states where these organizations are located must have laws substantially equivalent to the federal law (§ 103).

Constitutional basis for legislation Congress derived its power to pass the Sherman Act through its constitutional authority to regulate interstate commerce. Therefore, Federal courts only have jurisdiction to apply the Act to conduct that restrains or substantially affects either interstate commerce or trade within the District of Columbia. This requires the plaintiff must show that the conduct occurred during the flow of interstate commerce or had an appreciable effect on some activity that occurs during interstate commerce. [edit] Elements A Section 1 violation has three elements:[16] An agreement which unreasonably restrains competition and which affects interstate commerce.

But unfortunatly you and I are in the same boat. Sorry. I have been reading the laws regarding citizens over 65. I believe after reading the information I have that my mother has a legal standing to actually stand in my fathers place with all the rights he would have. Also I believe this case should of been reported to protective services as my father was over 65 and my mother who was also at the attack and had her husband choked in front of her while he was passed out. I cannot tell you what this has done to my mothers well being mentally and physically. The law states anyone over 65, not just a dependent. The situation in our small community has become very stressful. This is not just going to go away. -- My mother and I know how it feels. I had told you before how the Reddish family had followed us the first night of my dads death, yelled at our host for inviting us, then rang the phone every few minutes during dinner. They have watched our home and anyone from our area that visited us was harassed several times. Now the neighbor who was in jail for trying to kill his mother in law is out.

Welfare & Institutions Code § 15657 provides: "Where it is proven by clear and convincing evidence that a defendant is liable for . . . neglect as defined in Section 15610.57, . . . and that the defendant has been guilty of recklessness, oppression, fraud, or malice in the commission of this abuse, in addition to all of the remedies otherwise provided by law: (a) the court shall award to the plaintiff reasonable attorneys' fees and costs. . . . (b) the limitations imposed by Section 337.34 of the Code of Civil Procedure on the damages recoverable shall not apply . . . (c) the standards set forth in subdivision (b) of Section 3294 of the Civil Code regarding the imposition of punitive damages on an employer based upon the acts of an employee shall be satisfied before any damages or attorneys' fees permitted under this section may be imposed against an employer". Welfare & Institutions Code § 15610.57 defines "neglect" as the negligent failure of any person having care or custody of an elder to exercise that degree of care that a reasonable person in a like position would exercise, and includes the "failure to protect from health and safety hazard". Civil Code § 3294(b) provides that an employer shall not be liable for punitive damages based upon acts of an employee unless the employer had advanced knowledge of the unfitness of the employee and employed him or her with a conscious disregard of the rights or safety of others, or authorized or ratified the employee's wrongful conduct, or was personally guilty of oppression, fraud or malice. With respect to a corporate employer, the authorization or ratification of an act of recklessness, oppression, fraud or malice must be on the part of an officer, director or managing agent of the corporation.

Copyright (c) 1990 Georgetown Law Journal Georgetown Law Journal ARTICLE: Removing Conflicts from the Administration of Justice: Conflicts of Interest and Independent Counsels Under the Ethics in Government Act. 1 October, 1990 79 Geo. L.J. 1 Author BETH NOLAN * Excerpt I. INTRODUCTION The independent counsel provisions of the Ethics in Government Act of 1978 2 are a reflection of one of our nation's most fundamental aspirations for government: that official decisions should be made in the interests of the common good, not in the narrow self-interests of the individuals in power. This aspiration in turn reflects some of the basic tenets of our constitutional faith: that we shall be bound only by a government of laws, no one shall be above the law, and each person shall receive equal justice under the law. To further this goal, the independent counsel provisions endeavor to guarantee that certain investigations and prosecutions are undertaken free of the compromising influence of the prosecutor's own political or personal interests. From this perspective, the aspiration of the independent counsel provisions is for the reign of the "rule of law." 3 The independent counsel provisions are both an expression of fealty to the rule of law and a concession to its elusiveness. To legislate that certain individuals and institutions may not investigate certain other individuals is to acknowledge that the rule of law is vulnerable to manipulation and abuse. Moreover, the independent counsel law reflects a fear that manipulation and abuse can occur even when intentions are noble, or at least not malevolent. This is the underlying theory of the law, which mandates recusal of the entire Department of Justice in a certain category of cases, without regard to the ability of the Department to undertake a ...

In addition, a RICO claim would be aided by acts beyond mail or wire fraud. Some clients have complained about city officials threatening to reduce city services unless they cooperated with the condemnation proceedings and other clients relate threats of increased traffic enforcement around their business (i.e., the city threatening to ticket customers for little or no reason unless the business cooperates). Arguably, such activity could constitute extortion under 18 U.S.C. § 1951. The more blatant such extortion, the better the basis of a RICO claim.

"Civil Rights Laws and Police Misconduct A statute known as Section 1983 is the primary civil rights law victims of police misconduct rely upon. This law was originally passed as part of the Civil Rights Act of 1871, which was intended to curb oppressive conduct by government and private individuals participating in vigilante groups, such as the Ku Klux Klan. It is now called Section 1983 because that is where the law has been published, within Title 42, of the United States Code. Section 1983 makes it unlawful for anyone acting under the authority of state law to deprive another person of his or her rights under the Constitution or federal law. The most common claims brought against police officers are false arrest (or false imprisonment), malicious prosecution, and use of excessive or unreasonable force."

"The uncontested facts show that Evans cannot satisfy the requirement of "affirmatively prov[ing] prejudice." It is inconceivable to us, and not merely improbable as in Henderson v. Morgan, 426 U.S. 637, 644 n. 12, 96 S.Ct. 2253, 2257 n. 12, 49 L.Ed.2d 108 (1976), that Evans would have gone to trial on a defense of intoxication, or that if he had done so he either would have been acquitted or, if convicted, would nevertheless have been given a shorter sentence than he actually received. It just is not believable that Evans did all the things he does not deny having done, involving elaborate negotiations with the police over several hours, in some sort of alcohol-induced trance. In this respect the present case resembles Morgan v. Israel, 735 F.2d 1033 (7th Cir.1984). In evaluating the voluntariness of Morgan's failure to plead not guilty we said, "It is sufficiently clear that Morgan had no hope at all of an acquittal to enable us to infer that he would not have changed his plea to not guilty .... He admitted having shot Mallason; and when you shoot a person several times, with fatal results, the inference of deliberate homicide is irresistible .... The jury never would have believed that he lacked the ... elementary mental capacity required to form a murderous intent...." Id. at 1036. So here, no jury could have believed that Evans was not acting deliberately when he did all the things he did in the police station. Therefore, being told that if he had not been acting deliberately he would have been acquitted of some of the offenses with which he was charged could not have led him to change his plea and to win acquittal."

96.5. (a) Every judicial officer, court commissioner, or referee who commits any act that he or she knows perverts or obstructs justice, is guilty of a public offense punishable by imprisonment in a county jail for not more than one year. (b) Nothing in this section prohibits prosecution under paragraph (5) of subdivision (a) of Section 182 of the Penal Code or any other law.

Civil Remedies A few states have special provisions for the bringing of civil actions by the elderly. If an older person in Nevada suffers personal injury or death caused by abuse or neglect or suffers a loss of money or property by exploitation, the offender may be ordered to pay up to two times the actual damages incurred. If the offender acted with recklessness, oppression, fraud, or malice, the court shall order the person to pay the attorney's fees and costs of the person who initiated the lawsuit. In Georgia, the elderly may recover actual and punitive damages and attorney's fees for injury resulting from unfair or deceptive business practices

If people act in concert with others to commit a hate crime, they receive even harsher additional penalties.Crimes Causing Harm to Property Depending on the value of the property involved, as well as the level of violence, most property crimes are felonies in California. The legal definition of theft is the felonious stealing, taking, carrying, leading, or driving away of the personal property of another, or fraudulently appropriating property that has been entrusted by the other
