Criminal justice system and civil tort law system


Question 1. Why do we have both a criminal justice system and a civil tort law system? Are both still as necessary and important?

Question 2. As an employer, why should you be concerned about your employees' previous criminal records? Is this fair?

Question 3. Are 'white collar' crimes generally victimless if they are committed against a medium or large corporation?

Question 4. Do you think that the insanity defense to criminal liability is important to protect? Or is it a law that is too subject to abuse?

Question 5. Do you anticipate that the e-crimes statutes and laws will change much over the next twenty-five years? How can legislators and police work together to anticipate any future changes?

Question 6. Why is the concept of reasonableness so central to a breach of duty within the concept of negligence? Don't cultural differences determine what each person considers 'reasonable' and therefore makes this concept quite vague?

Question 7. Is it fair that each person is generally required to sign a contract waiving his or her rights to sue the vendor when engaging in somewhat dangerous activities like scuba diving and skydiving? Do you think courts should enforce these contracts even though one can't easily engage in these activities without signing such a contract?

Question 8. Why is the concept of strict liability used in specific 'essential' activities? Isn't the determination of what is 'essential' subjective?
