Here's the situation to be more specific.

 

R v Clarke is a case that sentenced clarke of theft, injuring with intent and home invasion.

 

Clarke appealed to the Court of Appeal and his appeal was accepted, his sentence became theft and injuring with intent only..

 

Now here's the ques..

R v Clarke is a precedent. As such, indicate whether it is binding or persuasive on the following Courts in a similar case:

 

a) The High Court

B) The Supreme Court

c) District Courts

d) The Court of Appeal

 

Sorry guys.. super nahihilo lang talgaa ako :( I sound dumb i know but id rather than not know the answers :(

From what I can glean from the facts that you stated, R v Clarke is a case that is

decided by the lower court, and affirmed with modification by the Court of Appeals.

Furthermore, R. v Clarke involves the conviction of Clarke of 3 separate crimes namely: theft, injuring with intent and home invasions.

 

Now before I make definite answers I'd like to state some uncertainties that would affect my answers.

First, I don't know the difference between the Supreme Court and the High Court in your example. Here in the Philippines, we only have the Supreme Court so it's up to you to determine the applicability of my answers with respect to the High Court.

 

Second, the wording of the question really is confusing so there is no need for you to be apologetic and say that you "sound dumb." All I can offer you is my honest and educated opinion on the matter(or guess?) since I'm no expert on law (I'm not even a lawyer yet) and more particularly on NZ law.

 

Now, for my answers, I've come to the conclusion that R v Clarke refers NOT to the original case decided by the lower court or district court but to the case decided

by the Court of Appeals because that is the only time the decision in our example achieves finality.

 

Since R. V Clarke is decided by the CA (Court of Appeals), which is not the highest court of the land, it therefore does not have a "binding effect" based on the principle of stare decisis. Hence it is not a binding precedent but can only be persuasive to ALL the courts within the land. The level of persuasiveness however differs as you go higher in the judiciary. The case is most persuasive on the lower courts and the Court of Appeals. It is also persuasive with respect to the Supreme Court until the latter adopts it in a subsequent decision.

For academic discussion only: assume that the Supreme Court affirms a Court of Appeals decision by way of a minute resolution (the one-paragraph type of decision which does not discuss the facts and/or law involving a case). Now, does that affirmation by the SC have binding effect? Why or why not?

 

Curious lang sa sagot. :rolleyes: :)

Art VIII Sec. 14 States:

NO DECISION SHALL BE RENDERED BY ANY COURT WITHOUT EXPRESSING THEREIN CLEARLY AND DISTINCTLY THE FACTS AND THE LAW ON WHICH IT IS BASED. xxx

 

Based on the aforementioned provision, the minute resolution should be VOID. B)

 

In reality however, how are you going to question the HIGHEST COURT of THE LAND? :( Who is to say that the Supreme Court has committed Grave Abuse of Discretion amounting to lack or excess of jurisdiction? :cry:

mga bossing ano kaya sira ng pc ko bigla di nadetect yung modem ko after 4 months of use..

What's the brand of your modem? are you using winxp?

 

I had a similar problem last january with my d-link modem. Although I've tried reinstalling the drivers, it still won't work.

 

Try reinstalling the drivers. Check also for viruses.

you didnt say if your modem's internal or external modem. and are you running win xp?

 

if internal, maybe the slot where it is inserted got loose, dirty etc. try removing the card cleaning the slot a bit, then place it back in.

 

same goes for external, maybe the connecting cable got frayed or the jacks loose, check and double check, also the power supply.

 

maybe a driver mismatch perhaps? search the web for new drivers(of course using a different pc! :lol: :D :P )
