Company Management

 

 

You are an employee working for a company, and you have been asked by your
manager to identify an item that your company needs to purchase. My advice is to pick something simple; if you are detailed, that will be more than enough work (e.g.,
compare three keyboards or zip drives rather than comparing three computers).
Select three models of the item you are comparing and develop the criteria you will
use as the basis for your evaluations.
Your primary audience (the person who requested the report) is an executive who
needs to make a decision. Your secondary audience (other employees/technical
people) will not make the decision but will use the report. The report will have
sections with headings so that all readers can find the information they need to do
their jobs.
Your technical report should include the following elements in this order:

In R v Mizra there was an Asian defendant who needed a interpreter during his trial. The jury was told not to draw any adverse inference from the use of the interpreter. The jury found the man guilty by majority. However, the judge obtained a letter from one of the jurors, which claimed that some jurors were prejudiced on racial grounds, which had led to partiality on the case. Here the court held that the rule set out in section 8(1) did not address the court itself, but to third parties who could be punished for the offence. This, due to the fact, that it is the courts responsibility to make sure that a defendant has a fair trial. The court is allowed to investigate these allegations.

Juror Contempt
Recently, it has become more common for jurors to search for information regarding their case online. This has led to several collapsed cases. Consequently, the legislature has introduced section 71 of the Criminal Justice and Courts Act 2015, which dictates that juror research is a criminal offence. It is contempt of court under the common law contempt system.

Common law contempt
There are three types of contempt under common law contempt; interfering with ‘pending or imminent’ court proceedings, contempt ‘in the face of the court’ and scandalizing the court.

Section 6(c) CCA states that nothing in the Act ‘restricts liability for contempt of court in respect of conduct intended to impede or prejudice the administration of justice.’ The requirements for common law contempt differ statutory contempt requirements. Firstly, there needs to be intent. This contrary to the statutory contempt, where the strict liability rule makes sure that intent is not needed. Additionally, the proceedings need not to be active, they only have to be pending, imminent.

In AG v News Group Newspapers Watkins LJ held that the publications by “The Sun” had a serious risk of prejudicing the trial. It was held that the allegations were so grave and prominent and widely published that the fact that the article were published during pending proceedings did not change this effect. With regards to the requirement of intent Watkins LJ stated that the editor should have foreseen that the published material would create a serious risk of prejudice to the fair trial of the doctor. By publishing these articles the editor tried to convince readers of the doctor’s g
