Re: Monthly chat July 2015
Hi.
@Dark: that is rather interesting, we don't really have magistrates over here either, or at least not volunteers like the UK apparently does. Even for the minor offences, the people do actually have a proper job. Usually it's someone working for the police or justice, but there are also actual judges who handle cases by themselves and hand out fairly light penalties.
I wonder what your training to become a magistrate would consist of. I personally wouldn't be so keen on volunteers actually handing out punishments because they might not have had the proper training, its more than just reading a particular law article, you also have to actually interpret each case, and be consistent. But since I am studying law myself this may be biased. In fact I am particularly interested in criminal law, and while I really don't see myself becoming a lawyer, being a judge would be quite interesting.
As for me... Well, the law studies are indeed over for this
year. I will have to choose which types of law I want to specialise in fairly soon. One of the types is definitely criminal law, and something more international might be nice as well.
I don't like this horrendously hot weather much either. Tomorrow in particular is going to be a struggle especially for the dogs, but luckily after that it will not be as hot. Unfortunately this also means there will be an overabundance of rain, which isn't exactly fun either. If only we had 20 to 25 degrees for the entire summer, I'd be happy with that.
