BREAKING: California appeals court rules that Manson family member Leslie Van Houten should be released on parole. The decision overturns Gov. Gavin Newsom's previous denial of parole for Van Houten in 2020. ImageImage
Van Houten has been recommended for parole five times since 2016, but her requests were denied by either Newsom or former Gov. Jerry Brown. 🏛️ The Second District Court of Appeal ruled 2-1 in favor of granting her parole. #appealscourt #California
Gov. Newsom claimed that Van Houten still poses a danger to society, but the appellate court found no evidence to support his conclusions. ⚖️ California Attorney General Rob Bonta could ask the California Supreme Court to stop Van Houten's release. #court #SupremeCourt

"What social media thinks" might be a concern of a #politician but must not be a concern of the judges. Social Media could have influenced #juries but a #judge must not be influenced by #SocialMedia. 1/4
Judges have to decide in accordance with the law and not to go "Argumentum ad populum"! To every possible extent in an adversarial legal system, a judge should avoid passing remarks while hearing a case. 3/4
The onus is on the prosecution/plaintiff to prove their case and it's not the duty of the judge. Judge in an adversarial legal system must be like blindfolded #LadyJustice with set a of scales⚖️ in her hands that bends towards the side of stronger evidence/argument. 2/4

Man dies of ‘joy’ after Supreme Court rules in his favor!!

18 سال بعد زمین پر قبضہ کے کیس کا فیصلہ حق میں آنے کی خوشی میں دل بند ہو گیا اور زُندگی ختم ہو گئی۔
اِدھر کیس ختم اُدھر خود ختم ۔

ہماری عدلیہ 130 نمبر پر ہے دُنیا میں انصاف دینے میں۔

ایسے ہزاروں کیسز چل رہے
عدالتوں میں جو تاریخ پر تاریخ
اور عدالتیں سب چھوڑ کر سیاستدانوں کو آئین کی تشریح پڑھانے میں مصروف ۔

یہاں آپ بکری کو بکری ثابت نہیں کر سکتے ۔
اور عمر خضر ہونی چاہیے کیس لڑنے کے لیے۔

850 سال پہلے کہے گئے اشعار حضرت نعمت اللّہ شاہ !

''حال '' کے ایسے تین اشعار بیان کرتے ہیں جو
غالبا موجودہ دور سے متعلق معلوم ہوتے ہیں اور جن میں لفظ ''قاضی'' (جج)، ''جنگ قاضی''، ''شکاری'' ، ''سگ'' (کُتا) ، ''رشوت اور مسند جہالت'' کے پر معنی الفاظ بے دریغ استعمال ہوئے ہیں۔

''جنگ قاضی'' یعنی قاضی یا ''جج کی لڑائی'' کے الفاظ بلاشبہ موجودہ عدلیہ کے بحران ہی کو ظاہر کر

A #Judge must not be affected by #MessiahComplex and stay within his role as a judge & must not wade into the role of #prosecution. It's against the #TrichotomyOfPowers. It's also a dent for the #adversarial legal system. 1/6
It is neither duty nor domain of the #judge but the duty of #prosecution to prove their case beyond any reasonable shadow of doubt. A Judge is not a prosecutor. 2/6
The set of scales in the hands of blindfolded #LadyJustice needs to bend on the side of stronger evidence.👨‍⚖️⚖️
A Judge must act in the same manner as if he doesn't know anything happened prior to the trial, at that point in time.👨‍⚖️⚖️ 3/6

🇵🇱⚖️🧵
So, what’s the deal with the Polish #ombudsman’s term and the Constitutional Tribunal ruling on that?
The Polish #NHRI, ombudsman, Commissioner for Civil Rights, a man of many talents, @Adbodnar, was appointed for a 5-year term according to the Polish #Constitution. (1/7)
The appointment of an ombudsman requires a vote in BOTH chambers of the Polish #parliament – the lower one, Sejm (controlled by the ruling party) and the upper one, Senat (controlled by the opposition). Currently, this means a deadlock on any contentious candidacy. (2/7)
What happens if both chambers of the parliament can’t agree? The #Constitution is silent on this, but according to the #law on the ombudsman, the incumbent stays in the office until the parliament decides. Which means that Adam Bodnar is now an on an “extended” term. (3/7)
