Legal Rights Responsibilities

Posted by under: Non classé .

Another particular type of legal claims, or groups of rights, that has received increasing attention from theorists is that of property rights. The discussion about this belongs more to that of the property itself – see the entry on the property. Only a few brief remarks are made here. The powers raise another question. Many authors (e.g. Hohfeld 1919, Hart 1973) have considered it a kind of right. By legal force, we mean the ability to make changes to the law or its application (as well as other conditions). As a general rule, of course, when granting a power, the legislature also grants the right to exercise it, but this is sometimes not the case, for example if the exercise of the right itself would constitute a felony or tort. In English law, for example, until a recent change in the law, a thief had the legal authority, in certain special circumstances, to transfer ownership of stolen property to a third party, even if he had committed a civil and possibly criminal fault. This seems to indicate that powers should not be considered rights themselves.

There must be a sense in which legal systems can confer rights on those entities as they wish. It has long been recognized that legal systems may consider such entities as legal persons at will. In England, for example, « the crown » was considered a legal entity for centuries, although what that means in terms of civil servants, let alone the people who held those positions, changed a lot during that time. Similarly, all modern societies recognize the legal existence as persons of societies or societies and often institutions such as trade unions, government agencies, universities, certain types of partnerships and clubs, etc. Practicing without a current and valid license is illegal and is equivalent to practicing without a license. The rights and obligations you have after your relationship ends depend on the facts of your situation. And for common-law spouses, it may depend on how long they live together. On the other hand, it is quite possible to talk coherently about ownership in a way that does not necessarily correspond to the legal situation. For example, a parent may tell a young child that a certain toy belongs to them, even if it legally belongs to the parent. Similarly, it may be plausible to argue that the concepts of property and possession, even if less solidly protected, may exist in societies that have nothing that we normally recognize as a legal system in its own right.

Some may take such examples as an indication that the notion of ownership is not essentially legal, while others tend to think that they are merely metaphorical extensions of a concept that is legally based. If your mental health condition does not affect the way you do your job, you are not required by law to inform your employer. This is true whether you are a current employee or a potential employee in the hiring process. For example, the amount of spousal support you receive or pay depends on factors such as the length of your relationship, your responsibilities during the relationship, and your income. And if you get divorced, you`re no longer a spouse and you may not be eligible for your partner`s health insurance benefits if they have one. The answer will often revolve around whether to adopt a theory of interest or a right-wing electoral theory. MacCormick (1976), for example, argued that any theory of rights that could not take into account children`s rights must be erroneous, which, in his view, was a reason for adopting an interest rate theory. Wellman (1995), for his part, argues that the assertion that very young children or people with serious mental illness may have legal rights distorts the concept of law because they lack proper control of the legal system.

Instead, these rights should only be exercised by those who can bring such actions on their behalf. For example, in his view, a very young child would not have the right not to be harmed by neglect by someone else`s behaviour. On the contrary, the child`s parents would have the right not to have their child injured through negligence. One of the difficulties with this position seems to be that it is not easily compatible with the relevant remedies (e.g. for damages) that the law would recognize. In this example, the law would clearly compensate for the loss of the child due to the injury, not the loss of the parent due to the injury of his or her child (although the latter may be a separate cause of action in some systems). According to older versions, such as those of Bentham and Austin, X is a rights holder because he is the intended beneficiary or beneficiary of someone else`s obligation, or perhaps of the absence of an obligation that the law might have imposed on him. For example, if X is entitled to payment of £10 from Y, this is because Y has an obligation which (remit the £10) is intended to benefit X. One of the problems with this theory is to explain why, although criminal law may exist in part to protect moral rights, it is not generally regarded as a direct transfer of legal rights to citizens, even if they are the intended beneficiaries of the corresponding duties. (Of course, there may be parallel civil rights in many systems, but this is a matter of urgency. See below for more information.) As previously mentioned, nurses are required by law to report all unsafe and inappropriate practices by health care workers and personnel. Once identified, the nurse should attempt to stop unsafe and/or inappropriate practices and report it immediately.

As discussion of the relative merits of choice and utility theories has continued and increasingly sophisticated versions of the two have been proposed (see, for example, the tripartite debate in Kramer, Simmonds and Steiner 1998, Kramer 2010, Vrousalis 2010, Van Duffel 2012), some authors have attempted to propose different or combined approaches. Wenar (2005) defends what he calls a theory of « multiple functions ». Accordingly, any « Hohfeld incident » (or a combination thereof) that grants an exception, discretion or authorization, or that authorizes the owner to protect, provide or perform, is a right. However, Kramer and Steiner (2007) argue that this is really nothing more than another version of utility theory and is not superior to existing versions. Another suggestion comes from Sreenivasan (2005), which should apply only to claimed rights and not to other types of rights. The essence of this is that Y is entitled to claim that X performs an action if, and only if, Y`s level of control over X`s duty (intends) corresponds to the level of control that furthers Y`s interests as a whole. Kramer and Steiner (2007) also criticize this situation on the grounds that it would include the case where someone deliberately did not obtain such power on the basis of their own interests. However, this would lead to a very implausible widening of the circle of those who should be considered right holders.

For example, suppose X leaves a sum of money to Y according to his will, provided that Y reaches the age of 21. The provision may need to be properly understood under the rules of the legal system that Y is only entitled to the money if he was 21 years old at the time of X`s death. But it may be that the right way to understand it is that Y, even if he has not reached 21, when X dies, acquires a right to money, but he does not have to be paid until the age of 21. A practical difference is that, in the latter case, the right may pass to the titular successor of Y if, after surviving X, Y nevertheless dies before the age of 21. In the latter case, lawyers refer to the right as « acquired ». There can be many complex legal regulations regarding this type of situation, and they vary greatly from jurisdiction to jurisdiction. Reference should be made to textbooks, in particular on testamentary succession, in the jurisdiction. Nurses are required by law to report abuse, neglect, gunshot wounds, dog bites, certain communicable diseases, and any unsafe and/or illegal practices of another health care provider. The question here is whether there are fundamental aspects of rights that are exclusive, or at least more important in legal systems, as opposed to morality.

As a rule, the remedies themselves are combined with other remedies, such as: having a coercive order imposed by the court, possibly under penalty of a penal or quasi-criminal sanction, or making arrangements for the freezing or forfeiture of a person`s property if, for example, someone has not paid damages previously awarded by the court. The details of these additional remedies vary from system to system. As with other training needs, nurses assess academic deficits of clients and staff, as well as educational needs regarding legal issues that affect their care or care. As a result of this evaluation, educational activities aimed at addressing the identified educational needs are planned, implemented and evaluated according to their effectiveness in meeting the identified educational needs. All documents and forms of documentation are considered legal documents.
