This video is literally the best... I noticed how you really threaded the waters and was really careful with your words when you started to reference Zimmerman V. Trayvon Case!.
You can even charged on double liability. For example when you steal some else shirt. You can be charged for theft in criminal cases and held reliable in a civil wrong for plaintiff recover the shirt.
Wonderful explanation. I guess that in addition to money that one can be liable for in a civil case, it could could also mean possession of kids right? as in family courts
With regards to OJ in a criminal case, there is no place for emotions. In the civil case it still doesn't make sense to find someone who was acquitted criminally, yet find them liable.
Guilty = with malice. Without malice (intent) there is no crime, only a civil case. Example, you ran over a lady in your car, if there was no malice and it was strictly an accident, then no crime, but if you did it on purpose (with malice) then either murder or attempted murder. Also, in Indiana (probably the same everywhere) the rules of court (that take precedent over code) does not allow for any criminal actions, but only criminal proceedings. There is only one form of action, the civil action. The civil rules, also known as the rules of trial procedure, also apply to criminal proceeding, in so much as they do not conflict with the rules of criminal procedure. The only form of action does not conflict with the criminal rules. So it seems, all crimes are civil actions and the answers available in the civil rules all apply.
But isnt there always a possibility of someone masking their malice and just using the excuse of it being an accident or is would there be a substantial amount of evidence that can help determine whether there was malice or no malice without the need of the defendant confessing to anything. ( im new to this so if u could explain it that would be helpful thank u)
hey i'm a bit confused.. I thought in the US there is no civil law like in EU but there's common law. This does not seem to be the case since you're teaching about civil law in US?
It seems like civil lawsuits are a backdoor just in case the criminal prosecutions dont work out. I always wondered how is that constitutional. Seems like another variation of _"double jeopardy,"_ imho.
How can a murder case be "business" related? How can say, OJ be found not guilty in criminal court yet have to pay money to the opposition's family if there are NO businesses involved?
Guilt can't get the only determinant of criminal law breaking. An illegal immigrant that hops across U.S. boarders and runs across is obviously 100% guilty. Yet they are not charged criminally.
You do realize that there are costs incurred with prosecutions and jailings right? Deportation is the cheapest and most practical tool when dealing with illegal immigration.
So how does situations like Injunctions for protection fall into Civil Law where majority of these are ex parte and also involves removing legally owned firearms before any due process takes place?
@@marshallm7828 I did a lot of research and apparantly it’s too much of a stressful job for me to handle anyways.. I have no idea what job I wanna pursue tho 😭
I'm still super confused. If I murder someone, doesn't that mean that I'm technically liable for their murder? Since defamation is a civil law, how do does defamation mean i need to pay money?
Defamation, look @ you tube, Johnny Depp trial happening now…. Airing of dirty laundry that has now become synonymous with Depp’s formerly good name. 😢
I disagree with you. Criminal cases are Civil Cases because the Plaintiff is the "State". Since the Plaintiff is a non-physical being, the "State" lacks standing. Further, criminal cases are civil because there's money involved such as Bonds, where the state holds a human as surety for the Bonds.
Hi there, can you tell me about the low IQ people who are ' reefed' into criminal acts beyond their control, in other words, becoming the Patsy. Cherri
what is the reason for civil cases existing? you have criminal cases because punishment is required to be a deterrent for committing crimes, but why do you need civil cases?
Consent to be Governed = Oath of a Public Servant....There is NO such thing as CRIMINAL LAW as per; 28 U.S.C. JUDICIAL & JUDICIARY PROCEDURE - ADMIRALTY, MARITIME & PRIZE CASES § 1333. According to the Historical & Revision Notes 1948 Act “ ... The "saving to suitors" clause in § 41(3) & 371(3) of title 28, U.S.C., 1940 ed., was changed by substituting the words "any other remedy to which he is otherwise entitled" for the words "the right of a common law remedy where the common law is competent to give it." The substituted language is simpler & more expressive of the original intent of Congress & is in conformity with Rule 2 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure ABOLISHING the distinction between law & equity.” (F.R.C.P. Rule 2. One Form of Action; There is one form of action - the CIVIL action.) Words "libellant or petitioner" were substituted for "suitors" to describe moving party in admiralty cases. Black’s Law Dictionary 2nd Edition. defines “Admiralty” as; “A court exercising jurisdiction over maritime causes, both civil & criminal, & marine affairs, commerce & navigation, controversies arising out of acts done upon or relating to the sea, & over questions of prize. Also, the system of jurisprudence relating to & growing out of the jurisdiction & practice of the admiralty courts.... Also, the court of the admiral. The building where the lords of the admiralty transact business. In American law. A tribunal exercising jurisdiction over all maritime contracts, torts, injuries, or offenses.... 2 U.S.C. THE CONGRESS §1408. CIVIL ACTION (a) Jurisdiction The district courts of the United States shall have jurisdiction over any civil action commenced under section 1401 of this title and this section by a COVERED EMPLOYEE. 2 U.S.C.
