Every country has got its own law administration arms that are meant to oversee a fair use of the laws of the land to its citizens. The laws are meant to govern among other things, the people's co-existence, property ownership and life at large where wildlife becomes an inclusion (Ehow 1999-2014). In the pursuit of effectiveness, application and enforcement of the law has to work hand in hand thus giving rise to two distinct segments. The wide scope of coverage to grass root level dictates that every country should have well structured organs in place to act as a medium of law application. The element of fairness embeds itself on the law to ensure that all justice channels gets explored before the final verdict is delivered (Ehow 1999-2014). Every individual under the law is granted an ample room to exercise and receive justice under all circumstances and it usually happens in the countries that do not uphold prejudicial judgments (Mark K. 2003). The aspect of extending the right of justice application to all individuals draws its power from the main sources of law which includes the constitution, legislature, customary law and judicial precedents.
Evaluation of Judicial system and criminal justice application

Moreover, violators were identifiable because anonymity was difficult to achieve.

Virginia and Pennsylvania’s constitutions were a hot topic during the era, they stimulated an intriguing matter amongst many politicians. From Thomas Paine to Carter Braxton’s writings, each individual had an important role arguing and making claims
a theory and look at important legislation and whether it passed within a divided government compared to a unified government. The hypothesis of this article is that "important legislation is more likely to fail to pass under divided government". The results of this article show the following conclusion. If the government is divided than it is more likely that the president will oppose more legislation than when the government is unified. Also important legislation will fail to pass more often under
