A batsman cannot be given out LBW the Fielding side must make an appeal to the Umpire. Unlike the rule for hitting the ball twice the umpire can give out without being asked

Lbw needs to have a claim for the batsman to be given out.
Its a bit of a strange rule but its true.
The lbw rule is always judged by the umpire at the bowler's end. If the fielding team believes a batsman may be out lbw, they must appeal to that umpire for a decision

No, under the laws of cricket the fielding side have to appeal. I believe it is not uncommon for the umpire to believe that the batsman would be out lbw but not to receive an appeal.
I think this law is daft. Why doesn't the fielding side just appeal every time the ball hits the pad?

No he cannot be given out. An LBW decision can only be given by the umpire if there is an appeal by the fielding side.

No, the umpire cannot give any player out unless there is an appeal. This not only applies to LBWs, but all dismisals, including bowled, you must appeal before the umpire can give the wicket.

100% No. Umpire can only gives the out for anything; if does fielding side appealing it. Therefore umpire can't gives out even batsman caught cleanly and but not appealing anyone of the fielding side. And after that umpire gives out the fielding skipper can tell to umpire to change his decision. But it's very rarely.

Graham I: "Umpire not to give batsman out without an appeal
Neither umpire shall give a batsman out, even though he may be out under the Laws, unless appealed to by the fielding side."
So if I completely remove the off stump and I don't shout, he's not out, although, by the rules he is out?

The umpire cannot give a batsman out for ANY reason if the fielding side do not appeal. Any member of the fielding side may appeal.

The ONLY time a batsman is out without appeal is if he is bowled, hit wicket or timed out. Catches, LBW's, Run Outs, Stumpings, Interferance, Handled Ball, and Double Hit all need to be appealled for.
A question: "How's that?" covers all forms of dismissal, and doesn't need to be the method of dismissal the fielding side believed it was.

According to the laws even if the batsman is clearly out he cannot be given out unless the fielding team appeals.
There are exceptions although. If a catch is taken in the outfield for example or Bowled or hit wicket etc
