法律英语导读精选
引导语：下面是我整理的关于法律英语的导读，为了提高大家的.英语水平我一直很用心地在准备啊，大家快来看看对你有没有帮助。
section i: how can this book help you?
just about everyone is touched in some way by our criminal justice system. you, a relative or a friend may be arrested and charged with a crime. or perhaps you've been the victim of one. maybe you're a teacher, social worker or counselor who needs clear answers to pressing questions so you can help others understand how the criminal justice system works. this book is for all of you, and for anyone else who wants to understand a little more about such gripping modern-day dramas as the o.j. simpson, menendez brothers and timothy mcveigh trials.
the book uses an easy-to-understand question-and-answer format to explain the criminal justice system, inside and outside the courtroom. when can a police officer make an arrest? is it a good idea to talk to the police? who decides whether to charge someone with a crime, and what crime to charge? is self-representation ever a good idea in criminal cases? should defendants conceal their guilt from their attorneys? what factors might convince a judge to release a jailed person on low bail—or waive bail altogether? these are among the hundreds of practical questions the book addresses.
who can benefit from this book?
many people can benefit from the information in this book:
if you are accused of a crime. if you are facing criminal charges, you should become very familiar with the information in this book, even if you have a lawyer. your case belongs to you, not to your lawyer, and you will want to be savvy enough about what's going on to intelligently participate in important decisions that are likely to affect its outcome. the more you know, the more likely it is that you will receive high quality legal services, because you will be in a position to insist that they be provided to you.
defendants' family members and friends. if someone close to you faces criminal charges, you'll want to know what is happening and how you can be of help. does it matter whether you are there in the courtroom when your friend or relative is arraigned? what factors should you consider if you are asked to post bail or sign a bail application for someone else? how should you respond if asked for your opinion by your friend or relative on whether he or she should plead guilty or ask for a jury trial? what types of support or counseling can you properly offer a friend or relative throughout his or her criminal case? knowing the answers to these and many other questions will make you a better helper.
crime victims. until recent years, crime victims were largely shut out of the criminal justice process. now victims often play more active roles, for example, by addressing the judge at the time a defendant is sentenced. thus, if you are a victim, you too will want to understand how the process works and where in the process you can expect to have an impact on how the case is prosecuted.
concerned citizens. have you ever watched a trial on tv and wanted to know what all the mumbo-jumbo is about? complained about the costs associated with crime? been called for jury duty? whatever prompts your interest, the criminal justice system belongs to you. you have a right to know how it works. the information in this book tells you what you never learned in high school civics.
