THE COURT SYSTEM OF ENGLAND AND WALES

 

The most common type of law court in England and Wales is the magis­trates' court.

More serious criminal cases then go to the Crown Court. Civil cases (for example, divorce or bankruptcy cases) are dealt with in County courts.

Appeals are heard by higher courts. For example, appeals from magis­trates' courts are heard in the Crown Court. The highest court of appeal in England and Wales is the House of Lords. Certain cases may be referred to the European Court of Justice in Luxembourg.

The legal system also includes juvenile courts (which deal with offenders under seventeen) and coroners' courts (which investigate violent, sudden or unnatural deaths).

Law-Making Process in the USA.

  The US Congress the lawmaking arm of the federal government consists of two houses: the House of Representatives and the Senate. Any congressman or the President may initiate new legislation.

   The bill is first introduced in the House of Representatives then referred to one of the standing committees where may be approved, amended or shelft the draft. If the committee passes the bill it is considered by the House of Representatives as a whole. If passed there, it goes to the senate for a similar sequence of committee hearings and general debate.

  In cases of disagreement the House of Representatives and the Senate confer together. Once passed by the Senate as a whole, the bill has to be examined by two more standing committees- the Committee on House Administration and the Senate Committee on Rules and Administration – and is signed by the speaker of the House and by the president of the Senate.

Finally it must be signed by the President who has the right to veto it. If the president vetoes a bill, it can still become a law – but only if it passed by a two-thirds majority in both houses of Congress.
