According to the old law that created in the 1970's, a life sentence is defined as only 80 years in length. Meanwhile, state officials are scrambling trying to figure out how they can legally detain these 'dangerous' inmates and any future inmates behind bars who have been denied parole for decades due to the severity of their crimes. + read more Date: 10-20-2009 Article type: Legal Daily News Feature Law Jobs in an Economic Slump This article deals with the hazards of the economic downturn and how legal professionals and employees are responding to the stress involved.

It may seem to a lot of people that the day in the life of a judge would not be hard at all. Know some laws and listen to the good guys and the bad guys and make a decision based on that. There is a lot more to being a judge then just that though. It is important to know that a person who intends on becoming a judge has a lot of training that they have to go through. They also have to spend a lot of years as an attorney before they can even consider running for judgeship. But what does a judge do all day? + read more Date: 06-19-2009 Article type: Feature Becoming a Circuit Court Judge By Silas Reed One of the heights of the legal profession is becoming a judge. Not everyone who practices law wants the prestige, or the hours, but for people who love justice and the law, there may be no higher calling. The step below the Supreme Court is an Appellate Court, working for one of the 13 Circuit Courts of Appeals in the United States. There are eleven numbered districts, covering different geographical areas, one for the District of Columbia, and one for Federal Agencies. + read more Date: 06-18-2009 Article type: Feature About Attorneys By Silas Reed Whether you have had unpleasant run ins with a legal proceeding or you are considering a career as an attorney, you'll find that when it comes to the legal system, there is a lot to know. There are a lot of jokes when it comes to attorneys but the truth is that attorneys perform a vital service in our world. + read more Date: 06-18-2009 Article type: Feature How to Become a Supreme Court Judge By Silas Reed The Supreme Court of the United States is the highest court in the land, dealing with interpreting and carrying out the law. An attorney who becomes a Supreme Court judge or justice has received the highest honor in their profession and carries a lot of power. + read more Date: 06-17-2009 Article type: Feature Becoming a Supreme Court Justice By Silas Reed If you aspire to be a Supreme Court Justice for the United States, you have high aspirations indeed. To be a Supreme Court Justice would make you one of the most powerful, and one of the most responsibility-charged, people in the nation. Your responsibility, of course, would be to interpret the laws of the U.S. Constitution and to apply those interpretations to cases that are brought for appeal before the Court. Supreme Court decisions about a case are final. They cannot be overturned or appealed to any other court, and all state courts must make their rulings based upon the Court's from that time forward. The only possibility of having a Supreme Court decision overturned is to have another case accepted by the Court in the future in which the future Justices decide the case in a way that overturns the previous decision. Some people want this done with the 1973 Roe v. Wade decision concerning federal laws protecting abortion rights, for instance. But the Supreme Court decides which cases it will hear, and until a new abortion rights case comes up in a state court that the highest court in the nation thinks is important enough to hear, there won't be any overturning of the 1973 decision. + read more Date: 06-16-2009 Article type: Feature How to Apply for the Rhode Island Bar Exam By Silas Reed When you want to be a lawyer or an attorney in Rhode Island, one of the most important things is going to be that you are able to apply for the bar exam.

For many years states had abolished this practice. However, in the last few years the need has apparently risen in several states to bring it back. There have been many instances of defendants who were wrongly accused and found guilty of crimes they did not commit being given the death sentence. This was especially true before modern technology gave us DNA and other means of proving or disproving one person was responsible for a crime of this nature. This necessitates more than ever the need for the legal job of criminal lawyers. + read more Date: 01-10-2009 Article type: Feature Legal Blog Round-Up 11.21.08 By Liz Jernigan As usual, there were interesting reports and commentary in legal blogs this week.

It's rare that the Supreme Court is a question of polling, but with recent political rhetoric along the lines of ''Bush has destroyed the Constitution'' and ''we are all living in a fascist state,'' it occurred to polling company Rasmussen to poll Americans on their current attitudes about the Supreme Court — and break the results down politically. + read more Date: 09-10-2008 Article type: Legal Daily News Feature Medellin Finally Executed By Texas By Stony Olsen Defying the World Court, Mexico, the Bush Administration, and others, Texas went ahead and executed Jose E.
